Hi, good hint! Having had a look it seems some magic is connected to the 
"hwddev" 
variable, but I don't use it so far. I use this to manage the two bridges:

"$DIR/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=0 netdev=bond0 bridge=xenbr0
"$DIR/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=1 netdev=bond1 bridge=xenbr1

Why does the script do a 
    . /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-${hwddev}
instead of a
    . /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-${netdev}
?

Would be great if those HOWTOs around would be better: There's little use if 
you 
follow som instructions, and these instructions don't work. Before I complain 
at 
Novell about it, can anybody help to do it right first, please?

I know that there's something wrong, but I'd like to learn what.

Ulrich
