and "iptables -L -n -v" does not list any rules?

So the HVM domU gets the correct MAC of the gateway,
and starts sending packets to it.

The next step would be to dump on eth0 on dom0.. do you see the same packets 
there? 

At the same time also dump on peth0, do the packets go out there to the 
physical network?
