Pasi, first thanks for your help!

Yes, like I wrote in my first mail:
My setup with two NICs: Dom0 is my working platform. DomU is my firewall 
system which establishes the PPP connection to my internet provider.
One NIC is used for the internal network (Dom0 and DomU have IP addresses 
in this network), the other NIC is only bridged to DomU and is used for 
the PPP connection.

I am quite sure this is not the case.

Dom0 can connect to DomU, and DomU has Internet connection through PPP.
But Dom0 canât connect to the Internet.

Case 1: DomU creates the Internet traffic
- I see the packets in DomU tracing on ppp0
- I see the packets in Dom0 tracing on eth1 (the interface to the DSL 
  modem, which is bridged to DomU and is not used in Dom0)
Case 2: Dom0 creates the Internet traffic
- I see the packets in DomU tracing on ppp0
- I donât see the packets anymore in Dom0 on eth1

So what networking configuration could be wrong? The bridge interfaces 
are correct or Dom0 couldnât contact DomU and DomU couldnât reach the 
Internet. Dom0 is correctly using DomU as Internet gateway, or I wouldnât 
see the packets on the ppp0 interface in DomU. Masquerading and the other 
NAT stuff is working correctly.
The same configuration is working with the older Dom0 kernel (I donât 
have to switch the DomU kernel back to the older version).
And since I forgot the output of âethtool -iâ, here it is. It is 
identical in both kernels:
osgiliath:/home/stse# ethtool -i peth0
driver: r8169
version: 2.3LK-NAPI
firmware-version: 
bus-info: 0000:04:00.0
osgiliath:/home/stse# ethtool -i eth1
driver: r8169
version: 2.3LK-NAPI
firmware-version: 
bus-info: 0000:03:00.0
Shade and sweet water!

        Stephan
