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
