Well, as I mentioned in my e-mail earlier today, here is what I've figured out so far. Someone who knows better should feel free to add or correct. I'll assume you're asking about connecting the Freerunner to a host computer running Suse via USB, and trying to get the Freerunner to connect to the internet, routed through the host computer. To be able to ssh into the Freerunner, it works to follow the "Manual Method" under "Connect to the Neo FreeRunner By USB Networking", typing in a console in Suse: ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] A better solution so you don't have to do this every time is to go to YaST Control Center -> Network Devices -> Network Card (or something like this. I'm using 11.0 right now and I think it had a slightly different name in 10.3. It also works to type "yast2 lan &" in a terminal as root.) There should be an entry for a USB Network Device or something similar that's probably not configured yet. Select it and click "Edit", and under the "Address" tab click "Statically assigned IP Address, enter 192.168.0.200 under "IP Adress" and 255.255.255.0 under "Subnet Mask". Click next and then finish. After that you should be able to ssh to the FreeRunner: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] To get Suse to route traffic from the FreeRunner to the internet you can copy and paste the "iptables" part from the Ubuntu instructions: iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 & echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward & iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT & This should allow you to access IP addresses directly, and you can then follow the "Updating DNS" section to get that working, since that's all done on the FreeRunner and isn't OS specific. I had to look at /etc/resolv.conf on my host computer and use those name servers instead of the OpenDNS ones suggested in the wiki. That's all I've figured out so far, but hopefully it helps you at least get started.
