Hmm I should have checked that first. Thanks, but is it possible that Xen is 
detecting or telling the domU host that it is this card because it detects a 
realtek but cant determine what type it is so it uses the most compatiable 
driver.  The onboard card is a Realtek 8111B chip (10/100/1000 Mbit) which I am 
using for this server. 

There is also another Realtek (10/100/1000 Mbit) card installed on the system 
and it should be in use for dom0. When I went to check the what dom0 was 
reporting the cards as I found this listed in dmessg over and over.

All servers are on diffrent IPs but I am wondering if there is not a problem 
with my bridinging or something else that I am not sure how to confirm. 

Thanks for your help,
