I was trying to share a connection just by creating an ad hoc connection
with network-manager/dnsmasq and NAT but what happens is that dsnmasq,
despite being a dhcp and dns server, it's used by network-manager to
"create" the connection, but does not provide the DHCP service, even
when I config /etc/dnsmasq.conf to do it.
if I run "sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq status" it gives me this output:
* Checking DNS forwarder and DHCP server dnsmasq
* (not running)
So basically, my work around was to install dhcp3-server and configure
/etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf to make it work with the same IP that network-
manager mysteriously (I've been trying to change this, anyone knows
where???) chooses to create the connection with "10.42.43.1".
