I have a headless box that isn't talking out its ethernet port. I wondered if it would network over usb. My Pre is on a NAT wifi network so I couldn't reach it directly.

1. Connect to pre with novaterm

root@palm-webos-device:/# ssh -f -N -n -R 9999:localhost:222 drewp@bigasterisk.com

2. On bigasterisk.com, ssh -p 9999 localhost

3. Unplug pre usb, take it to the computer for testing

4. On the new ssh connection, watch dmesg and ifconfig for action.

It might have been a bit easier to turn off pre wifi and ssh to it over the sprint network, although my connection would have been slower.
