Hi,

Is anyone having problem using virtio NICs for the Linux guest VMs (Ubuntu 12.10, CentOS 6.4, and Fedora 18)?  My guests can ping any domain (www.yahoo.com, www.google.com, etc) fine without any issues.  However, when I do system updates (ie yum repolist, yum update, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade), it doesn't get out to the internet.  But when I changed the NIC to e1000, everything works fine.  I think the problem is with Linux implementation of virtio-net as guest because the same environment setup works fine for FreeBSD 8.x.

TIA,
Tommy
