Re: Sharing Limited Internet Connection

[Askar <askarali@gmail.com>]

All you have to do on your linux gateway
# enable ip forwarding
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

#iptables nat rule goes as..
#use snat if you have static ip
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT --to xx.xxx.xxx.xx 
# use MASQ if you get dynamic ip
iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE


On client side make this route/gateway machine as default gateway.


hope this will helps.
