On similar lines, I have set-up transparent proxy so that devices connecting to my WiFi do not need to set-up proxy on their own (but will still work if they do.) Note however, that this is an Infrastructure Wireless network I created (much like what Connectify does on Windows.)
I have used a modified set of iptables rules for sharing internet over Ad-Hoc WiFi network, but haven't updated it on the blog. However, here are the commands: sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.42.0.1:5123 sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 443 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.4.0.1:5124 *NB: 10.42.0.1 is the local Wireless interface address under Ad-Hoc as created by NetWorkManager. 192.168.0.1 is the address if you follow my previous blog posts on creating Infrastructure Wireless APs* please note that *iptables-restore* washes away previous rules, but the two commands above only add to iptables, not replace them (much like the difference between > and >> in bash redirection) http://pritambaral.com/2012/05/device-agnostic-transparent-proxy-on-wifi/ *Regards,* *Chhatoi Pritam Baral* On Wed, Jun 20, 2012 at 10:55 AM, Alok Singh Mahor <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > I used to access internet via proxy server.
