I haven't tested with XP in a little while. Make sure you _disable_ the
firewall _service_ on the XP DomU (it is not sufficient to just disable
the firewall in network config - the firewall service itself has to be
disabled). That may just be an sp2 thing... I'm not sure if it is
required with sp2 but it is something that you can verify easily. If you
need the firewall service enabled, let me know and we'll see if we can
figure something else out.

Do you have a copy of 2003 (must be sp2) you can test with to draw some
comparisons?
