I tried establishing a session and logging in but I'm not getting anywhere fast.  It appears that either xend isn't functional in this area or something (perhaps) is not set correctly in the xend-config.sxp file.  Has anyone been able to login to a xen system successfully?  Are any of the facilities in the xend-config file functional with this RH version of xend?

Take a look at http://libvirt.org/  Remote management works fine, there 
are command line tools, and interfaces to many different languages.
