I am having problems with a internet connection share. Oddly, I had it working for a while last evening but then, suddenly, it died and I was unable to communication computer to computer via wlan (sharing a modem connection on one of them).
Running Mandrake 8.2, I have a usb wlan device on my desktop set as eth0 and IP 192.168.0.1 as well as a modem (ppp0) through which the internet connection is to be shared. My laptop has a wlan card set as wlan0 and IP 192.168.0.2. The wireless connection is ad-hoc and they are communicating just fine but I am unable to get the laptop to communicate with the internet via the desktop's modem connection. In other words, the connection is being shared. This appears to be a problem with iptables setup. Can someone help me out with getting iptables setup (to run NAT) so that my laptop can communicate with the internet via the desktop modem? praedor
