I didnt mean to access it, I meant did you assign the same IP to the GUEST that is assigned on the HOST.

I believe you need to move the ip from the interface to the bridge to have this work right. > > > Is this being done with PCI passthrough? > again, no. > > cheers, > danny -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org
