Hi,

i´ve got some newbie questions.
I try to create an access point on a RedHat Linux 7.3 maschine.
These are the specs:

AMD K6 II/300
NetGear MA311 wireless PCI adapter
Intel EthernetPro 100 wired PCI adapter
RedHat Linux 7.3
Kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x

I've no problems to compile and activate the drivers and the daemon.
My problems began when i try to access my WLAN.

I can see the WLAN.
I can access the WLAN.

But i´ve no chance to get an IP adress from the DHCP Server.
Also i´ve got no chance to "ping" some machines in my wired network, 
even when i configure a fixed IP Adress on my wireless client.

My network looks like this:

IP address eth0 192.168.15.250/255.255.255.240
IP address eth0:0 192.168.15.251/255.255.255.240
IP address eth0:1 192.168.15.252/255.255.255.240
IP address eth1 192.168.15.253/255.255.255.240
IP address wlan0 192.168.5.254/255.255.255.248

Default gateway 192.168.15.254
No iptables rulebase.

The DHCP Server looks on the interface wlan0.

And here are my questions:
Do i need another network configuration ?
Do i need the bridging functionality ?
