Sadly, no I can''t. Subnet IP''s are statically routed to my
Dom0
address, so for example 88.198.109.xx has dom0 ip for gateway (which
is 78.47.80.xxx). Really, it''s a mess.

I saw this: http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX120964
So far, no success. I''ll try this afternoon a last modification, and
if it''s not OK, I''ll switch to "classic" Xen.

I don''t have enough time for this, I''m working almost full
