Re: [Bluez-users] help for bluez and bridge configuration needed

[Theo Beisch <theo.beisch@gmx.de>]

Marcel,

thanks, I tried this but couldnt get it to work at least with SuSEfirewall2, 
activating NAT between the internal:pan0 (bridge) and external:eth0. ANy 
other ways?

What I am trying to get to: as I use my linux-laptop online (DHCP on eth0 in 
different networks) and offline (with th PDA/BT connection with apache etc. 
running on the laptop) my plan was to have a default configuration which at 
boot is overridden after DHCP on eth0 (or the bridge) has provided the laptop 
with its network IP, gateway and so on.

As I said, new to all this stuff....

Tx again
Theo
