[torqueusers] torque server on a virtual machine

[André Gemünd]

Hi Thomas,

you are probably using NAT forwarding (aka virbr0). See here how to configure the bridge: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking#Bridged_networking_.28aka_.22shared_physical_device.22.29

Greetings
André

> The funny thing is that the IP address is not the IP of the client
