[Lxc-users] trying to bridge wireless

Oh, fudge.  The problem is I told you (in the blog post) to do

cat > file << EOF
hack hack $var hack hack
EOF

but when you do that $var gets substituted!  So your script has

	'/24'

instead of

	'${braddr}/24'

Please open /opt/bin/lxcbr0-up in an editor, clear it out, and paste in:

#!/bin/sh
# This is the address we assigned to our bridge in /etc/network/interfaces
braddr=192.168.30.1
# ip address range for containers
brrange=192.168.30.2,192.168.30.254
iptables -A FORWARD -i lxcbr0 -s ${braddr}/24 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE
dnsmasq --bind-interfaces --conf-file= --listen-address $braddr --except-interface lo --dhcp-range $brrange --dhcp-lease-max=253 --dhcp-no-override

Hopefully that's the last of my blog posting booboos for now, and it'll
now work for you.
