Possible Clue for USB Modem Users Who Want to Use Share2Blue2th…

in General

So, I was digging around in the man pages for the commands that make Share2Blue2th work, and I noticed a snippet in the natd man. Type "man natd" in the terminal to read up on it, but it says that if you are not going to use en0 / en1 (Ethernet and Airport), but rather a PPP connection (as you do with a USB modem), you will have to use the –nat switch to ppp(8), rather than –interface en0. So, if I am reading it all correctly, the code in the scripts pertaining to the ports should be switched to:
sudo /usr/sbin/natd -nat ppp(8) -use_sockets -same_ports -dynamic -clamp_mss
and
sudo /sbin/ipfw add divert natd ip from any to any via ppp(8)
I have no means of testing this, so I haven't tested it. Good luck and please let me know if it works! Hopefully, this will help some of you who have emailed me about this issue...
