I'd like to have all network traffic pass through a computer, so that I can write some scripts that do basic traffic analysis (want to create a simple firewall).
I have a home wireless network and several machines on it. I have a desktop with a wireless card and a LAN card. The desktop is only running Windows 7 now, but I can install Ubuntu.
I'd like to use an ethernet cable to connect my laptop to my desktop, then have the desktop 'share' its internet connection – and as all of my laptop's data passes through the desktop I'd like to access it somehow.
How can I accomplish this?
How would he set up his firewall on the desktop for the other machines doing it like this? Also, this is at least borderline not an answer, since the user has a very different solution in mind. – Daniel Beck – 2011-06-11T18:19:21.683
