    This must have been done millions of times already, but as a newbie I'm
    having great difficulty getting a kvm guest inside a zone to network
    properly. It seems to me that I've tried every combination of configs I
    can think of (except one, no doubt ;) ) but can't get anything outside
    the zone to talk to the guest, with the exception of vnc and ssh (which
    I presume must be built into the kvm mechanism?).

    To the best of my knowledge (which isn't that much in this case), I've
    tried "-net user", "-net tap", "-redir", "hostfwd" in addition to the
    "-net nic" as shown on the wiki.
    Linux help pages suggest it should be done by bridging, but
    "create-bridge" won't let me use the visible vnic as a link.

    After two days of head-scratching I've decided I need assistance; if
    anyone can please point me at a working methodology I'd appreciate it.
    Be warned though I might need it spelling out :)
