[PVE-User] Proxmox VE Networking issues

[Shain Miley]

Hello all,
I was wondering if someone could shed some light on how  exactly I am 
supposed to get public (routable) ip addresses working for both OpenVZ 
and KVM guest OS's?

When I first setup Proxmox I was able to assign a public ip address to 
the openVZ guests that I setup...that worked fine.

However after I setup a Windows 2003 server on the KVM side (it's 
networking working fine if I used the default non-routable address) I 
decided that I wanted to enable remote desktop..which would require that 
I use a routable address.

After setting up a bridge (br0) on the host OS (and following some 
online help)..none of the guest os's networking seems to be working 
correctly :-(

Here are my two main questions:

1) I have 4 network cards on this server..should I be setting up all the 
openvz servers to use one NIC while the KVM guests use another or should 
they all use the same NIC?

2) Can someone provide me with some specific examples of getting 
routable ip's working for both OpenVZ and KVM on the same machine?

Thanks in advance,

Shain

PS..keep up the good work!
