Fedora xen - Jan 2007 - Using a FC6 Guest as Internet gateway, proxy etc

People,

Now that I can create FC6 Guests running on FC6 quite happily I am
thinking of using a very stripped down, minimal Guest as the Internet
gateway, proxy etc for the host machine such that the Guest has the real
IP address and the host machine is using a typical private IP address eg
192.168.0.10 - is anyone else doing this successfully?

Thanks,

Phil.

I''m running a domU firewall as described in:

http://www.shorewall.net/XenMyWay.html

works just like any other machine.

Also for running the firewall in dom0,
