Hi everyone,
I have some trouble with the network on a domu on a new host : I've made
a bridge and configured it but when I start the domu, I can't ping any
network... seems like the bridge is not working :'(

I've created the bridge directly in /etc/network/interface and I'm using
Xen 3.0.3 on a debian etch, bellow are the xen packages installed on dom0 :

#dpkg -l|grep xen
ii  libc6-xen
2.3.6.ds1-13etch8                    GNU C Library: Shared libraries
[Xen version
ii  linux-headers-2.6.18-6-xen
2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1                Common header files for Linux 2.6.18
ii  linux-headers-2.6.18-6-xen-686
2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1                Header files for Linux 2.6.18 on i686
ii  linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-686
2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1                Linux 2.6.18 image on i686
ii  linux-modules-2.6.18-6-xen-686
2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1                Linux 2.6.18 modules on i686
ii  xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386-pae

ii  xen-linux-system-2.6.18-6-xen-686
2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1                XEN system with Linux 2.6.18 image
on i686
ii  xen-utils-3.0.3-1
3.0.3-0-4                            XEN administrative tools
ii  xen-utils-common
3.0.3-0-2                            XEN administrative tools - common files

Bellow are all the information I could think of to find the
origin of the issue, let me know if you need anything else :

xen domU config file :
_______________________________________________________
# kernel to use
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-xen-686"
# kernel ramdisk
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-xen-686"
# memory in mb
memory = 128
# CPUs
vcpus = 1
# domain name
name = "artemis"
# root device
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
# disk mappin
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/rootvg/Artemis,hda1,w' ]
# network bridge
vif = [ 'mac=BB:BB:BB:BB:01:01, bridge=br-pub' ]

Any help is welcome.
