You SHOULD see eight vif0.# interfaces and eight veth# interfaces when
you run "ifconfig -a".  If you're not seeing them, then I'm betting you
configured /boot/grub/menu.lst to pass "loopback.nloopbacks=0" to the
dom0 kernel?  Don't do that.  You need at least 1 loopback in dom0 for
the network-bridge script to do it's magic.

The other possibility is that you didn't configure xend-config.sxp with:

        (network-script 'network-bridge')

You'll need that if you want your system to look like the wiki docs.
