I found some more info it appears you can use ipaddr to specify the ip but CONFIG_IP_PNP needs to be compiled into the kernel. http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-06/msg00131.html  

Is this something that could be added to future releases of the xen kernel rpm? 

Thanks

Anyways, in my case, I was able to assign IP addresses via the xen config file for a while, and then it stopped working at some point.  I found out that if you remove all knowledge that the domU has about an IP address, then it will take the one from the xen config.  Something like that at least… as I said, I've ran into this problem multiple times, but only been able to fix it once.

I am wanting to boot multiple xen images but I was wondering if there is an easier way to set it's ip address than mounting the image and editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 every time.

I've tried putting this in my xen.cfg file vif=['192.168.0.3'] and it doesn't appear to do anything.  Is this the correct way to boot a xen image and assign it a static ip address?

Thanks,
