I have a PiZero which I want to perform a couple of minor network functions that the UTM doesn't seem to handle (TFTP server and VPN client for instance).
I have therefore built a Jessie Minimal installation and enabled the g_ether module - When I connect to my mac it tries to DHCP, but self allocates (as does the mac) and then I can ssh to raspberry.local (bonjour working well).
When I connect it to my UTM then I get the following from dmesg:
[800929.144047] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci
[800929.500052] usb 2-2: new full-speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd
[800930.296056] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 6 using ehci-pci

[800930.913497] usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether
All of which looks quite hopeful. I also get the following interface under ip addr:
10: usb0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 2e:e1:ac:a4:37:21 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Which *also* looks hopeful... However in the UI - nothing, not a sausage. It offers me the other unused NICs, but not the USB one.
Do I have to go native, or can I encourage it to appear in the UI somehow...
If I have to go native on it - is there a recognised way of making my changes persistent?
