guest <-> guest communication problem

[Dean Rantala <dean@supergluetech.com>]

Very sorry for bugin' you all, but I have an issue someone may be able
to fix. 

I have 3 guests on a single host. This host is using bridged
networking. The guest VMs can talk to the host and any other computer on
the hosts network. They can even get outside to the internet. 

Likewise,
the host - and any other computer on the hosts network can communicate to
the guests fine and without problem. 

However, none of the guests can talk
to another guest. I have checked and they are all on the same bridge (each
machine using it's own tap interface) and all use the same vnet. 

Heres an
example command I am using: 

kvm -drive
file=disk.qcow2,index=0,media=disk,if=virtio,boot=on -m 512 -net
tap,vlan=0,script=no,ifname=tap0,downscript=no -net
nic,vlan=0,model=virtio
-net tap,vlan=1,script=no,ifname=tap1,downscript=no -net
nic,vlan=1,model=virtio -smp 1 -monitor unix:/monitor,server,nowait -vnc
0.0.0.0:2 -name ns1 -pidfile pid -no-shutdown -daemonize 

I have ensured
that iptables is correct: 

iptables -A INPUT -i tap0 -j ACCEPT 

iptables
-A INPUT -i tap0 -j ACCEPT 

Note: this is Debian Lenny. Strangely enough,
this worked fine under my desktop tests (Ubuntu 9.10) using the same exact
config.
