Ubuntu Networking :: Create Wireless Network Hotspot ?

Jul 22, 2011

I connected a USB Wireless Dongle (Sapido AU-4512S) on my Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. I wanted to share my wired internet connection from my pc to my friend's laptop.

So, I did the following:

1. Installed ndiswrapper-utils, ndiswrapper-common and ndisgtk in Synaptic Package Manager.

2. Installed Windows 7 64bit driver of my USB Dongle through Wireless Network Drivers(ndisgtk)

3. Now it says, net8192su -- Hardware present: Yes

4. Created a Ad-hoc connection clicking on Network Manager > create new wireless network..

5. Edited the Name, set Security to WEP 128-bit Passphrase and entered my desired password.

6. Finally clicked Create but it says "Wireless Connection disconnected"

I'm thinking about maybe the problem is with my dongle so I checked by using the command:

Code:

which gives me information about wlan0

The next thing I did worsen the situation. I unplugged the USB dongle ang plugged it again. This time,

Code:

gives me no result anymore.

Code:

Also, the option that says "create new wireless connection" disappeared in my Network Manager Applet now.

Now I have no problem. To restore the "Create new wireless connection" in my Network Manager Applet and finally create a wifi hotspot using my wired connection from pc.

Code:

Code:

Fedora Networking :: Wireless Users On 7 (Restricting Wireless Hotspot Usage)?

May 1, 2009

I have set up a small Mesh Wireless Hotspot at a local Flea Market. My plan is to add in one of those HotSpot services for billing and such..ut until I have enough users to justify that expenditure, I am just going to manually set up accounts.The system is all up and running as an OPEN SYSTEM. Users are able to access the net just fine thru my existing setup.My question is, how can I create user accounts so that users of my wireless network will have a username and password that they can log in with

Debian Configuration :: Setting Wireless Device As A Hotspot

Sep 18, 2015

I have a problem activating the hotspot on my debian 8. The issue is that I can't activate the hotspot to give other devices wifi connection.

I have the correct driver packages from the non-free repositories (firmware-realtek) and this service (hotspot) worked fine on distros like Ubuntu, Mint and Fedora .

I tried hostapd but it didn't work. I'm using cinnamon desktop.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Connect To Unsecured Wireless Hotspot

Sep 30, 2010

I am attempting to connect to an unsecured wireless network; I helped set it up for my local club with a local ISP. Once things were up and running I took my wife's laptop running Ubuntu 8.04.3 and Wicd. Can see the unsecured network no problem, good signal, hit connect, whirs away for awhile, then: 'Unable to obtain IP address.' Strange. I am about to give up and report back to the ISP when I think I might try one of the old Windows boxes in the computer room. Spots the network, hit connect, online, no problem.

So Windows connects fine, Ubuntu box can't get an IP though no doubt the router is trying to serve it one.

Ubuntu Networking :: Unable To Use The Netbook Wireless Hotspot

May 6, 2011

setting up a netbook's wireless access point (to allow remote connection to a network drive connected to the netbook). I know this sounds daft but there is a reason.I just switched workplace and have all my projects on one drive.However my new workplace's network only assigns ip to certain Mac addresses. So I can't just plug in the network drive.My new work desktop is MS loaded, warranty sticker sealed and shared so I can't change this.Well I will, but not in the first week.

The simplest solution I thought of was to bring in my ubuntu netbook connect this to the network drive and wirelessly connect the netbook to the new desktop this via a wireless USB dongle.I connected the netbook to the network drive with no problem using the wired card. I done this by adding

Code:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.4.1
network 192.168.4.0

[code]....

For the wireless bit, on the netbook, I right clicked on the network indicator icon and selected "Create New Wireless network" then entered a network name and WEP passphase.Over to the desktop (XP). I plugged in a wireless dongle, get it load the driver then selected my new network and entered the passphrase. It came up connected and sure enough I check and it got assigned a sensible IP.

All seemed well and I even connected my android phone with no issues. The phone and desktop can ping each other. However for some reason I can't actually ping or ssh to or from the netbook.So whilst it's happily providing the wireless network it can't use it itself.

p.s. Incidentally I am allowed to plug in USB drives so this isn't an access issue or me trying to sneakily circumvent rules. I even told my IT department about the wireless dongle plan.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Network Lot Slower And That Only Hotspot Works

Aug 17, 2010

My school has (once again) chosen to change their wireless network. This means it has gotten a lot slower, and that only our hotspot works. Our hotspot however is secured so that im unable to enter facebook, and a lot of other websites, etc. So what i did in windows was installing a program called hotspot shield, which redirects you ip through a server, so the LAN Admin basically have no control of what you're doing if he haven't got more skill than the one we have. I think what Hotspot shield does is making a vpn connection (correct me if im wrong) and i would certainly like to do that i ubuntu as well.

Fedora Servers :: Create Exact Backup / Copy?

Mar 14, 2011

I want to backup my server that godaddy is hosting and install it on my linux system at home. In other words I want to have a clone of my server at home, like what timemachine does on mac (carries files and programs from one mac to another to make a clone).

How do I do that? I create an image file an iso file? or what? How?

I want to do this incase my server burns up over there. I don't want to reinstall all the programs and do the set ups manually again.

Fedora Servers :: Create A Backup To A Remote File System?

Jun 26, 2010

Attempting to create a backup script to copy files from one file system to a remote file system.

When I try this I get:

Quote:

tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
ssh: Could not resolve hostname cat > /mnt/backup/fileserver.md1.tar.gz: Name or service not known

[Code].....

I know that the remote file system dir is RW and the access is working fine. I am stumped...

Fedora Servers :: Cannot Create Local 13 Repo: Pycurl Error 6?

Aug 16, 2010

I'm in the process of creating local repos for our company servers (CentOS 5.5) and laptops (Fedora 13). And while the CentOS part went perfect the Fedora part is causing major trouble.

But first things first, here's the setup: a central CentOS 5.5 server is running Apache2 and has a VirtualHost listening on Port 8080 for both CentOS and Fedora. The DocumentRoot for this VirtualHost is /data/repo wherein two directories, centos and fedora, reside.

This is the .repo-file for CentOS that works like a charm:

Quote:

[local]
name=CentOS-$releasever - local packages for $basearch
baseurl=url
enabled=1

After the CentOS repository was up and running I follwed the exact same steps and was expecting to find a Fedora repo up and running (I know, I know, silly me...). However, yum complains it cannot download the repomd.xml. The .repo-File is as follows:

Quote:

[local]
name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://icld:8080/fedora/$releasever/local/$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
protect=1

Yum returns the following error message:

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: local. Please verify its path and try again

The path is definitely correct - copying the url and pasting it into a webbrowser returns the correct repomd.xml file, so does pasting it to wget.

Any ideas? Does createrepo need any parameters in order to create a working Fedora repository?

Fedora Networking :: Tool To Create Multiple Listening Servers On TCP And UDP Ports

Jan 17, 2011

Looking for a test tool where I can fire up any number of ports (TCP and / or UDP) to listen on.

I am currently getting my using nc but its only 1 port at a time (i know I can open up multiple sessions but thats cumbersome), it can't do UDP, and it closes at the end of the session.

A friend has suggested socat but it looks pretty much the same except it can do UDP, but also cumbersome, I have to manually output to a different file per port, etc.

Basically its so I can quickly test firewall and NAT rules.

Fedora Networking :: Bridging NICs - When Use Brctl Command - Create A Bridge It Doesn't Let Add Wireless Card

Jul 9, 2010

I want to connect my modem straight to my fedora 13 box, using it as a firewall, and I want to use my wireless card to set up an ad-hoc to give internet to the windows computers in my house. My router has been messing up and I am trying to create a quick fix until I can solve the problem.

My eth0 has internet connectivity but when I use the brctl command to try to create a bridge it doesn't let me add my wireless card, wlan0, and also I lose internet while my eth0 is in a bridge. I am fairly new to Linux.

Ubuntu :: NetworkManager: "Create New Wireless Network" - "Create" Button Grayed Out?

May 28, 2010

EDIT: Whoops. Just realized that there is a Networking subforum. Apologies. In 10.04, I am able to get to the dialog in NM that asks for the network name and security for the creation of a new wireless network. However, the "Connect" button is grayed out and filling out all fields doesn't allow me to press it. I assume that this means that either there is a problem with my configuration or that my network card is not supported. Here is the lshw entry for my wireless card:

Code:
*-network
description: Wireless interface
product: PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection
vendor: Intel Corporation

[Code]...

EDIT2: Well, I was able to make an ad hoc connection via "Edit Connections" This seems to be a bug in the NetworkManager dialog.
