so standard disclaimer here: I am not an expert on this. ...but, it seems like setting up the proper subnet masks will be more difficult if the 'normal' network (his existing) and the usb network (ethernet gadget) for the neo are on the same 192.168.0.0/24 network. I know it can be subdivided beyond that by using different address masks. but is this really handled natively with the standard iptables rules that one finds via google, etc? After changing usb and device IPs from their default for a while, I ran into a conflict with an internal address range at work (when I connect over VPN) and so moved my entire network to 10.x.x.x, which (thankfully) never seems to get used for this stuff. Am I totally wrong on this? Regrds, Josh _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
