Can you just disable the firewall and see whether it works or not . On Fri, Jul 27, 2012 at 10:26 PM, Borden Rhodes <jrvp@bordenrhodes.com>wrote:
Thank you for the tips. There was nothing of interest in the libvirt logs and dnsmasq seems to be installed correctly, but perhaps this configuration information will help:

It turns out when I was poking through dmesg that I discovered that Firestarter was, indeed, blocking the virtual machines from getting an IP address. Which ports/services do I have to open in the firewall to let DHCP do its work? I can't find anything in the documentation which says that firewalls can cause problems. Perhaps someone should mention that?
The problem isn't quite solved yet. Although the virtual machines can an IP address, they cannot connect to the Internet. The connections time out when I try to connect out. Suggestions?
With thanks,
Borden
