[NTLUG:Discuss] Linux app as a wireless access point

[Richard Geoffrion]

Does anyone know of / use  a Linux based application that can turn a wireless 
nic into an access point?  I'm not looking for a WAP distro like say.. LEAF,  
but rather an application I can run on my existing Slackware server.

Hmm...what if LEAF were run in User-Mode Linux? ( http://usermodelinux.org )
I guess that would make the access point app more secure....

thoughts anyone?
