[Xen-users] how do i setup (simple) networking for dom0 <--> dom

Hi folks

I am trying to setup networking for domU's (just the 1 at the moment)
and i am highly confused?

My network setup is as follows: 

fw (& gw / connection to internet)
network addr:   192.168.12.0
netmask         255.255.255.0
gw ip addr:     192.168.12.1

dom0 address:   192.168.12.10
domU address:   192.168.12.100

Running Xen 3.0/unstable -- using xen-unstable-install-x86_32.tgz ---
download on 11/09/05

I want to setup networking so that:
1) dom0 (and clients on net 192.168.12.0) can ping domU
2) domU can ping dom0 (and clients on net 192.168.12.0)
3) domU can ping internet

I don't no whether to use routed, bridged or proxy-arp networking and if
iptables or ebtables is required.

## Use the following if VIF traffic is routed.
# The script used to start/stop networking for xend.
#(network-script     network-route)

## Use the following if VIF traffic is bridged.
# The script used to start/stop networking for xend.
(network-script    network-bridge)
# The default bridge that virtual interfaces should be connected to.
(vif-bridge        xen-br0)

# Whether iptables should be set up to prevent IP spoofing for

===========================================================

I hope someone on the list can sort this mess out for me (and many
others on the list it seems).

I and many others would be very very greatfull for a solution.
