Philippe,

This is the article I was referring to:
http://www.debian-administration.org/article/470/Using_multiple_network_cards_in_XEN_3.0

Make sure to read all the comments as there are some corrections and
updates to the article.

The combination of udev rules, this modified wrapper script, and a few
DNS entries on my DomUs were the three steps I needed to take in order
to get multiple NICs configured on my Debian Lenny setup.
