Hi Guys!
I have a computer running Ubuntu server 11.04, and i am trying to
implement INTERNET connection sharing using 3G usb modem. Everything
seems to work out fine except that when i try to connect to the INTERNET
from my laptop using a crossover cable, some pages open but some refuse.
For example i don't have a problem opening Ubuntu.com but i have
problems opening m.facebook.com and some other pages. The machine with
Ubuntu server is the one that connects to the INTERNET using ppp. I have
run the following script for "ip sharing":
#!/bin/sh
ip link set dev eth0 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0
sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --dport 3074 -j DNAT
--to-destination 192.168.1.1
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p udp -m multiport --dports
88,3074 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.1
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -d 192.168.1.1 -p tcp --dport 3074 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -d 192.168.1.1 -p udp -m multiport --dports
88,3074 -j ACCEPT
