CentOS virt - Dec 2007 - Xen not applying custom network script on startup

I'm seeing an issue with xend not running a custom network script
automatically, but works when I run it manually.
In /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp I've changed:

(network-script network-bridge)

TO:
(network-script network-custom)


Here is /etc/xen/scripts/network-custom:

# !/bin/bash
# network-custom

script=/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge

case $1 in

  start)
    $script start vifnum=0 bridge=xenbr0 netdev=eth0
    $script start vifnum=1 bridge=xenbr1 netdev=dummy0
    $script start vifnum=2 bridge=xenbr2 netdev=dummy1
  ;;

  stop)
    $script stop vifnum=0 bridge=xenbr0 netdev=eth0
    $script stop vifnum=1 bridge=xenbr1 netdev=dummy0
    $script stop vifnum=2 bridge=xenbr2 netdev=dummy1
  ;;

  status)
    $script status
  ;;

  *)
    echo 'Unknown command: ' $1
    echo 'Valid commands are: start, stop, status'
    exit 1
  ;;

esac


What am I missing?  I'd like the guests to auto-start when the host
starts, but this is preventing that.

I've found that configuring the bridges using the Red Hat method
(/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts) is easier and more straightforward than
finagling around in the Xen scripts.  Then you just disable Xen's method
with ``(network-script /bin/true)''.  The great thing about this is that
you can handle bonding, VLANs, and bridges all in the same spot and at
the same time.

Example bridge interface /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-xenbr0:

DEVICE=xenbr0
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=none
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
ONBOOT=yes
DELAY=0
STP=on

Example bridge port interface /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
BRIDGE=xenbr0

Maybe your shebang is busted?
