Thanks for your comment, Karel. I haven't noticed any severe packetloss, but you're advice is hereby passed on.

I finally got this working but i'm experiencing lots of packetloss to my guests. In my search i noticed that you're not allowed to use bridging on the Hetzner setup, but have to use routed xen setup. I'll try this tonight, maybe you can add it to your very good tutorial

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

Or else you might run into trouble, e.g. with MySQL.
