Hello Alessandro,
I lost your address with description of your setup so I cannot answer
directly.
If you did not solve your problem until now I would try like this. On
the LAN part define
clients as folows: if they are Win95 then
1.for connected via Ethernet
define network card, then TCP/IP for the card. Click on properties of
TCP/IP and in Gateway
option put the address of the linux box which plays a role of the
gateway/router. Then enable
DNS. Put address of DNS server you know(you dont need to have it on you
linux box) any name of the host. Thats all.
2. for connected via ppp/phone lines
Instead(not besides) of network card -TCP/IP you define Dial-up adapter
and protocol TCP/IP for
that adapter.On properties of TCP/IP of this adapter you put exactly the
same stuff as before.
Right. Now you get out of this. You have to probably boot you computer.
Dont do it now.
Go to Program/Dial-up network to define Dial-up connection. Click (just
once) and detach properties. Then you define server type as PPP..... The
rest of options you disable except
of Header compression or something like that (I do not remember exactly
how they call it, you
will find out). Ok. If your gateway/router has got a multipoort card one
should probably write a
script to run as you get connected. If this a case e-mail me.

Once clients are defined you go to your router and run commands
ipfwadm -F a m -S 192.168.10.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 #example of you clients
subnet
route add -net 192.168.10.0 # now you see them

Try at this point to ping clients and ping router form clients side to
test this part.
Now at every further jump - next router, any antenna which has got an
address and so on you
need to repeat the masquerading command.

ipfwadm -F a m -S 192.168.10.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0

At least I had to do like this. Again every step you do it ping it and
see whether you get
answer. Should work without problem.
I am very much interested in the result so please answer. If you can let
me know what
kind of wireless equipment you are using would be nice. Or where to get
more info about
wireless stuff their prices and coverage.

Andrzej
