How are you testing it? I don't think it would work the way you are trying to do it unless you do some different configuration in iptables (DNAT and mangle). What you can do is, on another machine which is connected to your WiFi, just provide the eth0 IP of the machine which is connected to the net (192.168.1.x) as the gateway and then try pinging - try pinging an IP first, e.g. ping 202.54.15.1 If it doesn't work, can you print the firewall configuration? -- Thank you Vivek Kapoor Blog: http://exain.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
