For now, just use VNC or remote X as if the domU was a separate physical
machine.  In future there are likely to be more options regarding virtual
framebuffers and 3D displays for local use.

That'll just be a generic Linux issue, I think.  You should probably just
configure the hostname in the domU once its up and running.


i mean... the parameter hostname="myhost" of the domU config...
doesnt work for me... because dont do his task :) the host is set to "none"
it happens to anybody else?

You could play with some of the network scripts in /etc/xen/scripts and try
customising them to do the appropriate setup when your domU's network
interfaces are created.

another question...
if i ssh my dom0, then i do

xen:~# xm list
Name                              ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State  Time(s)
Domain-0                           0      507     1 r-----    10.9
deb64vm                            1     7300     1 -b----     3.2

if i connect with "xm console 1" how can i come back to dom0?
i dont have xend installed on domU so i cant do "xm console 0" :)
have i to do another ssh connection? any other way?
yeah i can also shutdown the domU but it isnt what i want....

Thanks
