150.163.0.0 is your local network, right ?

This is what worked for me (Linux host) :

I set up a bridge (br0), configured with DHCP and attached my real
ethernet to it. the /etc/qemu-ifup adds the newly-created tun0 to it
(this has to be a sudo'd command). Works like a charm : all Ethernet
traffic is passed on this tun0 interface whenever the MAC destination is
the right one. Therefore, passing it a MAC address known from my (real)
DHCP server allows automatic (DHCP) configuration of the emulated
machine. You should also be able to configure a fixed IP.

Now, I understand that you are running Windows 2000 on the host. I do
not know if there are bridging utilities for Windows. If so, this might
be an easy solution... if there is something like qemu-ifup in Windows.

Hope this helps,
