Subject: [Bluez-users] IP Forwarding

Hi...

I just connected my laptop to my Pc and now I want to connect to the
internet using my PC as the gateway. I already have the bluetooth PAN
network between my laptop and PC. I am working on a linux 2.4.20-8
kernel on both the laptop and the PC. Also, I use proxies to connect
to the internet from my PC. So, could anyone please tell me the files
that have to be modified to enable the successful completion of my
internet connection thru my laptop.

you have to enable IP forwarding and then use iptables to create your
NAT and masquerading for your device.
