Brillant!!! That solved by bridging problem completely.

Seems that xen 3.0 doesn't like networking set up at all like it was in 2.0.

ie. You can't just create your own bridge and add eth1 in host0 to
that bridge, then all the 2nd vifX.1 interfaces to it.

So the method that works it to configure eth0 and eth1 via the
standard methods. Then run the script as per
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=332.

This is something that should be written about on XenNetworking and
probably included in the manual.

Only issue seems to be an interface alias eth1:0 didn't get
transfered. I'll explore that later, but this saves me trying
unstable. :D

Furthermore, I understand now that veth0 .. veth7 along with vif0.0 to
vif0.7 get created automatically by xen based on nloopbacks=8, which
is the default.

So its easy enough to follow the same process for xenbr2 to xenbr7, if
you so wish.
