Hi,

I've recently switched kernel on my NetBSD 3.0 development server to be 
able to evaluate XEN. I've been able to get it running having dom0 on a 
raidframe mirrored root fs, thanks to the great how-tos. I've managed to 
install another NetBSD 3.0 as domU booting with the INSTALL_XENU kernel 
and installed installing from cdrom.

The domU seems perfectly working, but I'm unable to have a working 
network configuration. If I try to ping any machine in the bridged 
network I receive DUP! answers, but the same doesn't happen when trying 
to reach an external IP (outside of my wireless router, which also acts 
as a dhcp server). I'm also able to resolve IPs, but the whole thing 
stops when trying to make TCP connections anywhere.

 From what I was able to see connections remain in SYN_SENT state. Here 
are some ifconfig/brconfig output:
