sharing wireless connection with xbox


I am trying to share a wireless connection (ra0) with my xbox connected to eth0 via a crossover networking cable. I can't seem to get anything to work. I tried network bridging but that didn't work, Is there anything quick-and-dirty like windows style Internet Connection Sharing I could try?

Unless you're using WPA then bridging is probably the best route. If you are using WPA then you should use proxy-arp. If you can't get either of these working you could setup nat via iptables. What problems did you have when you tried bridging?
