there is information about this on the shorewall website: http://www.shorewall.net/XenMyWay.html, though it's extremely complicated and likely more than you need. It got me started though. Combined with pciback(see Xen wiki for info) to move my red-zone interface to my domU firewall, it works pretty well. I have WAN <- physical eth0 moved to domU (firewall) with pciback eth1 in firewall domU 192.168.2.1<- DMZ domUs (mail, web, etc) eth2 in f/w domU 192.168.1.1<- dom0 fileserver and LAN The whole thing is a little dodgy, and seems kind of fragile. It doesn't always work well on a reboot, as I don't seem to have the interfaces coming up in the right order, but it does work. A
