[Xen-users] Vif order

I have the same problem with xen 3.0.4 over Centos 
4.4 (with xen 3.0.3 work ok)

I have 3 domU with this config file:
     ...
     vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0', 'bridge=xenbr1', 'bridge=xenbr2' ]

     ...
When I start the domUs I get this:
#brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
xenbr0          8000.feffffffffff       no              peth0
                                                        
vif0.0

                                                        vif17.1
                                                        vif18.2
                                                        vif4.1
xenbr1          
8000.feffffffffff
       no              peth1
                                                        vif0.1
                                                        vif17.2
                                                        
vif18.0
                                                        vif4.2
xenbr2          8000.feffffffffff       no              peth2
                                                        vif0.2
                                                        
vif17.0
                                                        vif18.1
                                                        vif4.0

Does anyone know a way to force the vif ordering ?


Thanks

Pepe
