        Sorry Ivan, I don't have directions.  I think the documentation
would cover setting up routing instead of bridging.  That is probably as
simple as changing a line in /etc/xend-config.sxp (or something like that).
In order to set up the dial-up (with or without some sort of automatic
failover) and additional routing, I think you would have to start looking at
more common Linux resources, as those things aren't specific to Xen.  Once
you know have a working setup, someone else in the group might be able to
help you get it to stick with Xen making network changes and whatnot.  I was
simply offering a plausible solution path.
        Dustin

Hi Dustin!

According to your answer i think the best option is to
do the routing (PCI passthrough is not supported on my
machine :S)

Can you send me the directions you said, so i can
investigate about this?

Thank's so much.
Really appreciate your help.

Regards
Ivan
