Hi,

First time using xen....

I have created and booted a guest OK, but the networking doesn't work.

According to the rather limited documentation, keeping most of the
networking configuration at default is supposed to "just work".

Since I've never seen a working setup and the documentation is so
minimal, I've got no way to make progress without help.

*****************************************************************************
Here's the running guest's network config:
# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:3E:34:23:46
          inet addr:69.46.20.228  Bcast:69.46.20.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
