So pass --interface=/dev/eth0 instead of --interface=eth0. This is different from Linux, where (apparently) network interfaces exist in their own little namespace and not in the file system. On Debian, "/dev/eth0" is configured in /etc/network/interfaces, and then 'ifup -a' brings it up automatically. So the issue is not with your build of netdde, it's with how pfinet gets configured.
