ad-hoc-network

I have some little problem while sharing wifi connection. I have 2 laptops. I need connection scheme like this:

laptop1 [wlan0] >>>>>>>> laptop2 [wlan0] (in ad-hoc mode, as ap, etc) >>>>> laptop2 [wlan1] >>>> internet.

laptop1 [wlan0] connecting to laptop2 [wlan0]. laptop2 connecting to internet through wlan1. Is it possible?

OS: Ubuntu on both machines

I tried this man (setting laptop2 wlan0 in ad-hoc mode): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc#Network_Manager

laptop1 connects to laptop2, but can't access to internet.
