Really?  I wasn't aware of that.  A quick search of the forum revealed various 
other posts about XenExpress.  I would have thought the forums were open to 
anyone who wanted to post.

Did you actually try asking the question on the forums?  If so could you 
please send me a link to that.

The problem is likely to be relatively simple, to be honest.  I do development 
on the Open Source version of Xen and may well be able to help you figure 
something out if we work together.  I suggested using the forums in the hope 
that less "working things out" would be required if you asked the experts, so 
to speak.

Anyhow, come back here if you've no luck on the forums...

Cheers,
Mark
