I preferred to use a real class B private IP address as 192.168.0.0 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 isn't a proper private network address.  I set up a simple system: a front end with the CC, SC, etc., and one NC via a crossover cable.

Note: as of this writing, one cannot create bundles on OS X boxen and have them work correctly.  You'll get a 'bad superblock' error...

Also note that that on page 28, there is essentially a typo.  For a MANAGED-NOVLAN setup, there is no need to create a bridge of any sort; xen will do that automatically.  And the "TYPE=Bridge" does not work under CentOS.
