The configuration looks Ok, except for the IP address. According to your last email, both eth0 and br0 (with eth0 not beeing part of br0), having an IP from the same subnet. You may get yourself into a picle doing that, so you may need to chage it to be part of a different subnet.
Another thing you can try and do is add eth0 as part of the bridge with the rest of the adaptors, so your system only has one IP address. (which is on br0). Don't forget to give your workstation an arp flush once you enable the bridge, as there is a good chance the MAC will switch on you. (simple arp -ad under WinXX should do the trick). Other than that, what you are typing is Ok. btw: You can adjust the forwading delay to something lower like 2, to get the bridge passing traffic a little quicker. (the default takes quite some time before you can ping through the bridge). Good luck.
