ok, thank you, but I'm not sure that it'll work for this situation will it?. I
already have three interfaces in the machine because there are two lans on
separate subnets and some of the servers cannot be located on the dmz with a
public address cause they are domain controllers. Is there a way I can keep
the current lan setups since some of them are also on xen machines running on
the lan?

I agree with Simon. The configuration that he recommends is so much
cleaner than what you currently have; and it will work.
