Folks,

  What files do I need to tweak to add a wireless router to my network? I have 3 
NICs on my firewall eth0 - Internet, eth1 - LAN and eth2 that I want to use as 
an access point via an AirLink101 AR430W router. I have the information needed 
to configure the router AFTER I get it connected. I have added it to 
/etc/network/interfaces and ifconfig shows it correctly. What other areas do I 
need to look into?

What I am getting is one of two responses either Firefox can't find it or a 
message from Apache2 about an Index... no login screen.

I am running Uuntu 8.04 LTS with kernel 2.6.24-27-generic. I installed Shorewall 
and got it up and configured to properly recognize the all three NICs. But I 
have not been able to get the router to respond....

Cheers,
Jay
