I suffer the same in the 8.10 beta. My /etc/network/interfaces reads as:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto usb0
iface usb0 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 &
Adding a usb network device (in this case an Openmoko FreeRunner) wrecks
my existing ethernet connection. This can be fixed with a "sudo dhclient
eth0".
