Your /etc/network/interfaces file should look something like this.. this works for me but I am on a hardware platform for dom0 rather than a vm.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth1 inet manual
auto xenbr0
iface xenbr0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth1

Subject: [Xen-users] Bridged, have IP, can't ping anything, including the gateway
First off, let me start by saying that I am new to Xen. I do have experience in Virtualization, but mainly VirtualBox and VMWare.
I'm attempting to test Xen in preparation for the physical server arrival this Friday. The dom0 is currently running on a VirtualBox VM, which I'm wondering if that could be the issue that I'm having.
I'm almost 100% up and running. I worked through some issues I had with bridging the network. I've finally got it to a point where I am getting a DHCP address. The dom0 machine is .190 and the domU is .213. I cannot ping the gateway nor anything else from
the domU (Debian) nor can I ping the domU from anything else on my network. I haven't seen anything in IPTables that would indicate any issue there. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
