Setting AP (Access Point) In slackware

AP or Access Point is a method to divide the network, here I will try to explain how to make a machine that is already infected with Slackware to divide the network via the wireless adapter.
material material:

     Hostapd (can compile sbo use his slackbuild please get in slackbuilds.org)
     A machine (laptop, netbuk or whatever it is that has been build in wireless adapter [all the portable computer's wifi bs bs dipake here]) that have the wireless adapter. [here I use my asus eeepc notbuk 1215P with slackware-current]
     A client (all mobile devices that supports wifi) [here I am using 1 mm pieces and 1 piece nokia E63]

Direct concocting his potion:

 1. Configuration HOSTAPD: Edit the file /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

interface=wlan0

driver=nl80211

ssid=MyHotspot

country_code=ID

hw_mode=g

channel=1

auth_algs=1

ignore_broadcast_ssid=0

wpa=3

wpa_passphrase=test2011

wpa_pairwise=TKIP

rsn_pairwise=CCMP

 

 

 Description :
ssid = MyHotspot: please MyHotSpot filled with the name as you like
wpa_passphrase = test2011: please change the password that you want it

# dhcpd.conf

#

# Configuration file for ISC dhcpd (see 'man dhcpd.conf')

#

option domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220;

default-lease-time 600;

max-lease-time 7200;

ddns-update-style none; ddns-updates off;

subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

        range 192.168.0.200 192.168.0.229;

        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

        option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;

        option routers 192.168.0.1;

}

 

 2. Start and Stop Hotspot Service: Create a new file with the name rc.hotspot in /etc/rc.d

Please create and edit this file:
# Nano /etc/rc.d/rc.hotspot

#!/bin/sh

# Script to start/stop a hostapd-based access point

# edited for slackware distro

# Symbols for needed programs

 

IPTABLES=/usr/sbin/iptables

IFCONFIG=/sbin/ifconfig

DHCPD=/usr/sbin/dhcpd

HOSTAPD=/usr/sbin/hostapd

 

# Symbols for internal and external interfaces

 

NET_INT=wlan0

NET_EXT=ppp0

 

# IP address for the AP

 

INT_ADDR=192.168.0.1

 

case "$1" in

start)

        echo "Starting AP mode for $NET_INT at address $INT_ADDR"

        # Disable packet forwarding

        echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

        # Stop any existing hostapd and dhcpd daemons

        killall hostapd

        killall dhcpd

        #Set up forwarding

        $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $NET_EXT -j MASQUERADE

        $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $NET_EXT -o $NET_INT -m state

--state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

        $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $NET_INT -o $NET_EXT -j ACCEPT

        # Enable packet forwarding

        echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

        # Get the internal interface in the right state

        $IFCONFIG $NET_INT down

        $IFCONFIG $NET_INT up

        $IFCONFIG $NET_INT $INT_ADDR

        # dhcpd needs to have a leases file available - create it if needed

        if [ ! -f /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases ]; then

                touch /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases

        fi

        # Bring up the DHCP server

        $DHCPD -cf /etc/dhcpd.conf $NET_INT

        # Bring up hostapd

        $HOSTAPD -B -P /var/run/hostapd.pid /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

        ;;

stop)

        echo "Stopping AP mode on $NET_INT"

        # Stop hostapd and dhcpd daemons

        kill -INT $(cat /var/run/hostapd.pid)

        kill -INT $(cat /var/run/dhcpd.pid)

        ;;

*)

        echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"

        exit 1

        ;;

esac

 

 Jika anda ingin saat booting slackware anda script ini aktif maka masukan ini di rc.local #nano /etc/rc.d/rc.local

# Start hotspot service

if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.hotspot ]; then

. /etc/rc.d/rc.hotspot start

fi

The next stage is to create an executable file into a way rc.hotspot
#chmod + x /etc/rc.d/rc.hotspot

If already please run your hotspot
# / etc / rc.d / rc.hotspot start
