Public bug reported:
I sometimes use my laptop as a DHCP-server for a network without
permanent Internet connection.
sudo su
iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface eth0 -j ACCEPT
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
/etc/init.d/dhcp*-server restart
/etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf have also been edited to my
choice. Everything works until I close the lid of the routing computer.
When I do the Internet connection is interrupted and I need to give the
restart-command to the dhcp-server to make it work again. I need to run
the dhcp-server with the computer's lid open.
