Now I'm able to ping every originator in the network. The problem is derived from some iptables filters that stop the ping. Executing the following command I remove the filters solving the problem:
Glad to hear that.
When I launch the daemon in normal mode, using the command "batmand ath0", no error is displayed but no OGMs is observed to be travelling in the network using Wireshark. The only message displayed is: "Interface activated: ath0 Using interface ath0 with address 10.0.0.1 and broadcast address 10.255.255.255"
Could you please run batmand -c -d 4 after you started the daemon ? This command will make batman start a "client" that connects to the running daemon that outputs error messages. Feel free to share these messages with us. :-)
And finally another question... Is it normal to observe 3 different processes named batmand using the shell command ps?
Batman uses threads to parallelize certain tasks (basically 2 threads). Older kernel versions / different thread implementations don't offer "real" threads but use processes instead. Usually, they create a control process that syncs the other "threads" (processes in this case), hence 2 + 1 processes in "ps".
