These should be zero, if you're following my howto I updated it about a week
ago to reflect this.  Not that this will fix your problem, it's only a minor
point.

Now you need to launch a UML instance and configure its eth0 device using
ifconfig from within the session, and set the gateway.

This page should help: http://edeca.net/articles/bridging/start-uml.html

Specifically you're looking for the "eth0=tuntap,uml-conn0" added to your
commandline.  What goes in place of "uml-conn0" is probably "tap0" but seems
you don't specify a name when in your "tunctl" command when you create the
device I cannot say for sure.
