  1. HowTo for Ubuntu -> Windows I made: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ShareEthernetConnectionThroughWireless
  2.  
  3. I'm trying to replicate the same configuration but doing it manually (no /etc/network/interfaces and no NetworkManager)
  4. and connecting from an Ubuntu machine (PC2) to my desktop PC which has Ubuntu too (PC1).
  5.  
  6. So far so good, they can ping each other, but PC2 can't see the outside world (using Firestarter). I wonder if the
  7. route commands I'm using are wrong for what I want to archieve?
  8.  
  9. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  10. Trying to share internet connection from PC1 to PC2
  11. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  12.  
  13. Here's how the network is arranged:
  14.  
  15. Internet <> ISP <> 201.208.x.y eth0 PC1 rausb1 192.168.0.1 <> 192.168.0.2 ra0 PC2
  16.  
  17. PC1 default route via dev eth0
  18. PC1 static route 192.168.0.0/24 via rausb1
  19.  
  20. PC2 default route via dev ra0
  21.  
  22. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  23. Commands I (should?) use
  24. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  33.  
  34. sudo ifconfig rausb1 up
  35.  
  36. sudo ifconfig rausb1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
