OK, I have a strange problem. It is probably something simple/stupid, but I
cannot figure it out.
I have a nice new PowerEdge T20 that I installed CentOS 6 (6.5) on with
Virtualization (KVM). I then installed Ubuntu 14.04 in a virtual machine,
with a bridged network:

The Ububtu VM can connect to the LAN the T20 is on and off into the
public Internet. Machines on the LAN (eg my laptop) can connect to Ububtu
VM. *BUT* the host server cannot connect to the Ububtu VM and the Ububtu
cannot connect to the host server.
Netstat -r on the T20 (host server):
[root@newserver ~]# netstat -r
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 em1
192.168.122.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 virbr0
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 em1
default server1.wendell 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 em1
Netstat -r on the Ubuntu VM:
heller@ub140464:~$ netstat -r
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
default server1.wendell 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
(server1 is the older PowerEdge server running CentOS 5 that *presently*
serves as the router to the public Internet and is also the dhcp and DNS
server for the LAN. Eventually, the new T20 server will take that over, once
it is fully set up.)
I have set up VMs like this on my CentOS 5 (Xen) machine without any problems,
but I must be missing something here.
