you might get that, or you might find yourself that only Dom0 can
connect, or maybe you suddenly need another NAT layer... it's not a
Xen issue, it's a routing and network design issue.

you have to think it in terms of network equipement: you're given a
ethernet port and many machines.  how do you connect? a switch? a
router? use NAT, firewalls, tunnels? (almost) any answer you would get
for physical machines, you can replicate in Xen.
