Description Maximilian Gaß 2009-01-06 10:38:45 UTC

libvirt requires iptables to set up its networking.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge libvirt
2. /etc/init.d/libvirtd start
3. virsh net-create $your_network

Actual Results:  
virsh # net-create /etc/libvirt/networks/foo.xml 
libvir: QEMU error : internal error failed to add iptables rule to allow DHCP requests from 'foo' : Invalid argument
error: Failed to create network from /etc/libvirt/networks/foo.xml

Expected Results:  
Network foo created from /etc/libvirt/networks/foo.xml
