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

xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xx) Security mode:open
Power Management:off
Link Quality=60/100 Signal level=-83 dBm

Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
