[one-users] ebtables hook script for kvm hosts

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi Gavin,

The KVM hook is on its way. The 1.4 Beta lacks some features that will
be present in the stable release (like the ebtables hook for KVM). In
a few days we will upload the KVM script so you can try it.

There should not be any difference between Xen and KVM, and both of
them support all the OpenNebula features. Any functionality gap is due
to the Beta state of 1.4 version an not due to any preference in the
underlying hypervisor technology.

Cheers

Ruben
