Thank for your answer i've tried to set a static mac address for my DomU...
but i have the same problem to use network into DomU.

i put

vif  = [ 'ip=192.168.1.211, mac=00:16:00:00:00:01' ]
into my DomU config file
    

I'm not sure that the MAC you have put it allowed in Xen.
Try with 00:16:3e:60:73:3d instead and probe again.
  

i'll tried with the mac you sudgest and other
in this document http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenNetworking
it's explained that mac can assume that value:

XY:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
where X is any hexadecimal digit, and Y is one of 2, 6, A or E. 

but DomU network still don't work

i restarted my server... but...
now when i enter in DomU console (xm console myDomUname)

i've the follow message:

netfront:device eth0 has flipping receive path
    

Humm, not idea about it :(
but similar errors appear in Google, try it ;)
  

i've just see on google about that error
in this document there is an answer
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-11/msg00583.html
but i don't understand what exactly i must do to fix it
the document say:

It's not an error, just an informational statement.

If you want to try the 'copying receive path', place 'xennet.rx_copy' on
your domU kernel command line.

 -- Keir

What meaning exactly?

'copying receive path', place 'xennet.rx_copy' on
your domU kernel command line

i see that at boot of DomU there is a fatal error...
modules /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-amd64
isn't founded at boot
:(
how can i solve that problem?

if i do the following:

# cat /proc/net/dev
i see that i've
lo and eth0 too

but if i do
# ifconfig
i see only lo and no other interface
    

What does occur if you do in domU:

# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
  

if i do that... ifconfig show eth0 interface...
but i can't use the network... ping don't work... apt don't work...
