Yes, that's exactly what I meant.

Bear in mind I'm a Xen newbie as well ...

Are the relevant ethernet cards all connected to the same switch ? 
Don't forget that the way you have this set up, inter-domain traffic 
will go out through one physical port, through an external switch, 
and back in via a different physical port. I would also test it for 
traffic between dom-0 or a dom-u and an external device - ie make 
sure you can ping between dom-0 and an external device, and between 
dom-1 and an external device, etc.


Also, something I found out last week while experimenting (I'm 
running a bridge in a dom-u doing traffic accounting for traffic to 
other dom-u's behind it), dom-0 seems to need a vif in each bridge 
even if is't not going to pass any traffic. In my case, I found that 
I had to add vif0.1 to xenbr1 and then xenbr1 started working.

In your case, if you do "brctl show xenbr1" you should see peth1, 
vif0.1 and vif1.1 listed as members.
