ought to do it.  I think that it's clear that the whole hotplug subsystem isn't
running in your case, so I wouldn't worry about it.

This suggests that the tools have not even got as far as trying to create a
vif for you.  Are you getting the "Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.
Hotplug scripts not working." message, same as Charles Coffing?  That really
would be very curious.  In any case, your config file ought to be causing Xend
to at least try to create a vif.  I will need to see your /var/log/xend.log to
pin this down, and if you can get a xenstore trace, that will be useful too.

Cheers,

Ewan.
