This was changed in Xen 3.0.4  or later. Previously XenD had no knowledge
of inactive domains which made their management rather limited / hard. In
Xen 3.0.4 there is now full lifecycle management of domains and as such
their config files are stored by XenD itself. They are in a directory
/var/lib/xend/domains, but they are not user-editable there - XenD will
ignore / overwrite any changes you try to make there.  In Fedora 7 our
recommendation is to use libvirt's virsh tool to alter the configs by
first extracting them in XML format, then reloading them into XenD

   virsh dumpxml [guest name] > guest.xml
   vi guest.xml
   virsh define guest.xml

XML is described at  http://libvirt.org/format.html

NB, the XML format does not yet support all of the config options available
(in particular for HVM), so won't work for the --fullscreen example mentioned 
earlier in this thread.

Dan.
