i'm trying to get my wife's laptop up on the network(internet) with wlan.
currently i have a server, and 2 workstations on lan to linksys router.
(samba, named, bind9, nfs, mysql, blah blah blah).
i installed a wireless pci (xterasys)on one of my workstations(rh9 ) for testing,
before i set this up on my server( for obvious reasons), and a wireless
on her laptop( winxp for now).
i just want to get internet acces for the laptop, through the rh9 workstation,via wlan0.
i don't want to use dhcp as in another post i found here.
all i need is some direction in this matter, i do read, and search....
i figured this didn't need to be in wireless forum, seeing this could be done
the same with lan
some info:
laptop sees rh9 box, good signal
rh9:
eth0 192.168.1.2
wlan0 192.168.2.2
named started ( default config)
