Eek.  I am using bridging very successfully and have never had a
problem with it.  I don't use 2.4 any more though.  I hope it will
be possible to retain support for bridging.

I'm hoping I'm in the silent majority ;-)

One tweak I do make is to set up the bridge in Dom0 first.  I'd
be happy if bridge support was changed to require a pre-existing
bridge...

Cheers,

Leigh.
