but this one 'ties' it in usb0 although it connects as eth1! How can this
work?

I also used the following entries in /etc/network/interfaces:

#freerunner3
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.200
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
up iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 &
up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward &
up iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT &
down iptables -D POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 &

and didn't work! Openmoko wasn't able to get an IP address at all!

Thanks

Tony
