I have just started testing Xen for real and I have trouble getting
network connectivity in my VMs. Even though ifconfig reports that
xen-br0 is up in domain 0, my VMs hang trying to obtain a DHCP address.
Is that a known issue with bridged networking - did not find anything
mentioning it in the FAQ ? Would installing the package by Adam Heath
solve this ?

Running on Debian Sarge - using Xen 2.0.4 binary install. Naively just
trying to configure the VMs network by

  dhcp = "dhcp"
