Hi, my small home server (a Shuttle DS47D) has two ethernet ports, eth0 is connected to the fiber modem, eth1 is my local network where the shuttle acts as DHCP/NFS/CUPS server. So far, so good. The Shuttle also has a wireless card (RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter), and I want to set it up as an access point: While the fiber modem does have an WLAN AP, it directly connects to the outside network of our house :( So while I have internet from that, I'm 'outside' and cannot access services in my private net :( So I installed hostapd. First I had tried only hostapd, and this did not work - I was always disconnected :( I figured out I'd need to set up a bridge with eth1 and wlan0, so I could get an IP address. But when I fire up yast, to create a bridge, it only offers wlan0 and eth0 as possible interfaces for bridging. eth1 *is* visible in the overview - just not available for bridging. Would anyone know why? And does anyone have a similar setup running who could give me some hint/jumpstart?
