I am trying to get a centos 6 system on the internet with a tethered iPhone. I can see the phone with lsusb as bus 001 device 011. A post on stackoverflow said I would need to run "# ip link set usb0 up && dhcpcd usb0"
But how do I reference my phone in that command?

I thought that if the phone is in tethering mode that is all you need to do. The command is saying setup an 'ethernet' port on the USB and to ask for a dhcpd command from it. If the phone allows tethering it will be using its USB as an ethernet connection and will see a dhcpd connection and will give out an ip address.

Seems something else is using usb0 - without the phone connected I see something on usb0 when running ifconfig. I think it's some internal network. I tried running those commands when the phones be was connected but the system still is not on the internet.

Run 'udevadm monitor' with sudo or as root and watch for what /dev entry the phone picks up when it is plugged in. Use that one in your ip or dhcpd commands.

Or really crudely:
Plug in the phone, wait a minute then issue # ls -ltr /dev and the last named one should be the phone.

The phone appears as this:
/dev/bus/usb/001/011
How does that translate as something I can pass into the ip command?

Unfortunately I am not at the site any more. I will have to try that next time I am there. Thanks!

That may be the case with some hardware. A lot of management hardware will appear as a USB network address so you can loop back into the hardware that way. You could try usb1 for the phone to see if that works.

When you have the phone plugged in, what does "lsusb" say?

I did try that - I got no such device or something like that.

I always found that USB tethering is flaky and hard to set up. So I use wifi tethering whenever possible. Just my $.02.

If this machine had wifi I would not need to use my phone.

I see. We all have to make use of what we have.
Another option is to add a USB wifi dongle, such as https://www.amazon.com/Edimax-EW-7811Un-150Mbps-Raspberry-Supports/dp/B003MT...
$7.99 including shipping and it is pretty plug-and-play.

One of the comments says you need to be connected to the internet to install the drivers. That would not work for me.

+1 for just using wifi! :)
