Right now (and particularly with Xen 2.0, since it exports the management
interface over HTTP), the rule is basically not to have anything you don't
trust be able to access dom0 over the network. Even in Xen 3.0, the
migration code doesn't really distinguish friend / foe, so anyone on the same
network could migrate stuff to your machine (although it shouldn't be a
security risk, it could get quite annoying!!!).
Cheers,
Mark
