Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
I am able to share an internet connection between two wireless NIC's. However, DNS routing does not work correctly.
I have used the following procedure to verify that the problem is DNS:
Use the computer behind the NAT to navigate to http://
http://
I was also able to confirm this by editing /etc/resolv.conf, setting the contents to be the same as the resolv.conf file on the computer sharing the internet connection with NetworkManager. After that, all hostnames resolved correctly on the computer
behind the NAT. So, just so long as nameservers on the computer behind the NAT are set to the sharing computer's gateway's IP addres, everything works fine.

do you have dnsmasq-base package installed (also if you have the (full) dnsmasq package installed try to remove that as it might confuse some parts of NM).
