To get rid of the xenbr1 manually, you should be able to do:
brctl delif <any interface that is on that bridge>
then, when no more interfaces do:
ifconfig xenbr1 down
brctl delbr xenbr1
This worked, xenbr1 is gone.
Do you get any warning or error to stdout or to the /var/log/xen/* log
files when starting/restarting xend?

Have you tried to start the network-bridge script on the command line
manually with:
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start
I tried this by hand.
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start
Nothing to flush.
Nothing to flush.
Waiting for peth0 to negotiate link....
...and then it hangs forever.
Machine then goes unpingable.
Restarting network doesn't help.
rebooting, but not restarting xen, we get the network back.
It is also not clear to me anymore what works and what doesn't. Could
you clarify that again?
Thanks,
Todd
Basic problem: dom0 can't ping the outside world or be pinged
by the outside world.
domU can ping dom0 and the outside world.
dom0 can ping domU but nothing else.

I was at one point running a second bridge, but took it out
during the debugging. Nevertheless the xenbr1 doesn't go away.
and I haven't figured out any brctl commands that will make it go away.
From a similarly-configured working machine on different hardware, this
is what I wanted to do (and what I had originally configured on this one
too), and has been working fine for me on many other
machines.

Hope this helps us figure out what is wrong.
Have seen a couple places on the net that a bios upgrade
and-or tweak to the broadcom controller is needed
for the PE1950 to fix related problems. Has anyone tried?

note that the Xen kernel 2.6.18 picks the opposite mac addresses as eth0
from what the redhatized non-xen kernel does. This is
undone by ifcfg-eth0.
When the xen kernel boots, before xend starts, I can see the outside
network just fine.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
As part of the debugging I dialed back my configuration, which normally
has a xenbr0 and a xenbr1, to use a just a xenbr0 and have just one
network interface on each domU and on the dom0. Nevertheless the
problem is the same and I can't seem to get rid of the xenbr1.
I note that at the start of the xend there is a timeout of about 10-15
seconds as it is trying to turn on the second bridge.
Now here is the really strange part. While logged in on the
console of the dom0, I can go ahead and start xen domU's, and they
go ahead and boot up normally and can see the outside network fine.
[root@fnpcsrv5 ~]# xm list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State
Time(s)
Domain-0 0 1953 8 r-----
127.3
fnpc5x1 1 6000 4 -b----
23.1
fnpc5x4 2 2000 1 -b----
20.6
[root@fnpcsrv5 ~]#
Oh, and by the way, dom0 is pingable from the domU's although
it cannot be seen from the outside net.
What should I be looking at?
Could you also provide the output of:
brctl show
grep net /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp | grep -v '#'
Also, in the domU config files what are you specifying for the bridge?
Are you running any custom network scripts (these would be specified in
/etc/xen/xend-config.sxp and should have shown up in the output of the
grep
above.
Cheers,
Todd
