Thank you, I've done that.

Now, what should I do now, add an reserved range IP address to the host
like 192.x.x.x and use iptables to filter the packages of the filter is
done automatically by the peth/vif.X? I tried to assign an IP like that
to the host ( within the host and from the DomU config file ) and still
cannot reach internet, I copied the resolv.conf from dom0 to domU just
in case.

Thanks for your time and support
Regards
