again.. hi john.. if by network mangler, you mean "network manager", no, it's not enabled on the laptop/system. i've tried various route cmds, but it doesn't appear to be working. (or i'm screwing something up...) i i'm on box1 (which is windows), and i do a ping 192.168.2.33 (which is the eth0 nic) on box2, i'm assuming i have to do something to "translate" the 192.168.2.33, into 192.168.1.33 (which is the ath0) on box2. the only way box1 can get to box2 is via the ath0 (wireless) nic.. any thoughts/comments/pointers. thanks -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of John Summerfield Sent: Saturday, November 24, 2007 10:00 PM To: For users of Fedora Subject: Re: ip masquerading bruce wrote: > Hi John!! > > I've forgotten something, as I thought this was working at one time, so it's > back to the basics....
