Hi,
I have a working fc14 install with a few virtual interfaces set up,

I see several references that indicate this may be a bug. Or have I
configured something wrong?
I'm assuming that you're running virt-manager, otherwise
interfaceGetXMLDesc wouldn't be getting called so much. There could be
some strange interaction between netlink and interfaces with ":" in the
name. I'm just packing up to leave on a 5 day trip, though, and don't
have time to investigate right now, but there are some things you can
look at:
1) try running "virsh iface-list --all", then "virsh iface-dumpxml
--inactive <name>" where <name> is the name of each interface displayed
in the iface-list command. See which are successful.
2) also try "virsh iface-dumpxml <name>" (ie withough the --inactive)
for each.
3) send the results of the above, as well as the output of "ifconfig -a"
4) also the output of "ls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* | while
read f; do echo =====; echo $f; cat $f; done"
Something from that could help in reproducing the problem.
I have some interfaces configured to be a bridge and others are
configured as a regular network, with the guests being masqueraded.
It's certainly possible I've configured something incorrectly.
I'm not sure what information to provide to help troubleshoot this.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
