Hi all.
I have two notebook and i want to share internet connection from old notebook(Debian 4.0 etch) to new notebook(ubuntu 8.04).Old notebook will work ad-hoc mode and other notebooks will connect to internet from debian notebook.
I configured debian notebook like below:
LAN (eth0) : IP: 192.168.1.3 GW:192.168.1.254 DNS:192.168.1.254 and share internet connection with iptables.
Wireless(eth1) : IP:192.168.0.1 GW: dont use , DNS: dont use , Authentication: WEP-128bit HEX , Mode: Ad-hoc , ESSID: debian
Enable ipv4_forward and write iptables configuration like below:
# iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
and wireless information like below:
--------------------------------------------
#debian:~# iwconfig
lo******* no wireless extensions.
eth0***** no wireless extensions.
eth1** IEEE 802.11b* ESSID:"debian"* Nickname:"ipw2100"
******** Mode:Ad-Hoc* Frequency:2.412 GHz* Cell: 02:0C:F1:42:EF:EF**

------------------------------------------------------------------
and ps auxc command like below:
---------------------------------------
root***** 3635* 0.0* 0.2** 2656* 1124 ?******* Ss** 18:54** 0:00 dhcpd3
-------------------------------------------
dhcpd3 is running.
and it works ! but not on ubuntu 8.04 !
it only works vi_sta machine.Vi_sta can connect to internet with wireless and take an ip from debian notebook dhcp server.
Ubuntu8.04 can not connect to internet and can not take an ip from debian dhcp server.
Ubuntu 8.04's route command like below:
Destination**** Gateway******** Genmask******** Flags Metric Ref*** Use Iface
localnet******* *************** 255.255.255.0** U**** 0***** 0******* 0 wlan0
link-local***** *************** 255.255.0.0**** U**** 1000** 0******* 0 wlan0
default******** 192.168.0.1 * 0.0.0.0******** UG*** 100*** 0******* 0 wlan0
ubuntu can find debian wireless , I enter WEP-128 HEX password and it connect to debian essid but DO NOT take an ip from debian dhcp server.
iwconfig command on ubuntu like below:
-------------------------------------
lo******* no wireless extensions.
eth0***** no wireless extensions.
