It seems there is an alternative solution, at least for getting me
through the installation.  I have set up an ssh tunnel from my
desktop machine (where I am running the vncviewer) forwarding port
5900 to localhost:5900 on dom0 on the remote server.  Connecting
vncviewer to localhost:5900 now gives me a console on my domU :)
Once I have the domU installed, is there no way to configure xen to
allow remote vnc sessions to the domU console directly (the domU
won't be running X on it's virtual console, so I don't think running
a vnc server inside domU is an option).
