Hi there,

In Windows OS, Internet connection can be shared to other LAN or Wireless LAN. I am using Redhat Linux 6 and I have two LAN card in my PC. How can I share Internet connection from one LAN card to another LAN card in Linux? Please, provide me the solution ASAP. This is mandatory for me to share the Internet connection.

  • # vi /etc/sysctl.conf then press enter.

Now please go to bottom in this text file and remove Hash sigh (#) from in front of below line.

  • net.ipv4.ip_forword=1.

After does this please save file.

Second: Please apply another command for DNS set. Then press below command.

  • # vi /etc/resolve.conf then press enter.
May you get this file empty. If it is empty then please write as below:
  • nameserver (DNS IP WILL BE PUT HERE).
 
Then save and restart the network service. Use below command.
