[Scottish] repairing a bad tar archive
Hi, I have a bad tar file I created using smbtar which I need to restore from. I can unzip the file but still get this error msg when I try and run tar tvf or xvf: tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors This is what I get if I do file PC-392.Fri.full.tar PC-392.Fri.full.tar: ASCII text If I run strings on the file, I can see some of the readable data so it is not in tar format. Other backups have worked correctly for that particular day using the same script/commands. I tried using smbtar to restore from the archive but that also fails with: checksums don't match 0 22394 abandoning restore, -1 from read tar header Is there any way I can retrieve the data from the archive file? ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish

They offered everything that we needed at the best price. They have proved to be very good and have a good portal with tools to update DNS records and logging support queries. The ADSL link has went down a few times over the year for a few hours at a time. This has been due to BT and to there being few problems with Force9's network but the company can live with this downtime so it has not been a problem. ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish

[Scottish] sar110
Hi, Did you get this sorted? I also have a sar110 and had same problem but plusnet would not allocate me any more IP addresses. I could only get the router working using the NAT 1:1 with smoothie and works fine with the certificate based vpn but not with shared secret. I can give you info on my setup if you do not get the extra IP addresses. ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish

[Scottish] ADSL router with no-nat configuration
Hi, I am having problems setting up a solwise SAR110 adsl router with a no-nat configuration and wonder if anyone here has set up an adsl router with a similar config. I simply want to connect the router to our smoothwall and have been allocated an address range of 4 ip addresses. The problem seems to be with the default route not going through the ppp interface. Our ISP said they cannot help, despite having tutorials for no-nat setups for two other types of modems but not this supplied one. I was able to set up the router with the standard nat option ok, but according to the ISP, to set it up as no-nat, all I need to do is configure eth-0 with appropriate ip address/mask from range supplied. To test this, I have set up a laptop with the other useable ip address/mask and the laptop and router can talk to one another. The router gets authenticated and connected to the ISP network (As confirmed by support) and sets up some dynamic routes. I have tried configuring the router by leaving the ip address of the ppp interface blank, which automatically gets allocated the correct ip address on connection and also set the ip address manually on the ppp interface. This is the routing table with a no-nat config where: address range: 212.159.29.4/30 dns: 212.159.11.150, 212.159.13.150 --- Destination netmask next hopifname type 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 195.166.128.11 eth-0 indirect 127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.1lo-0direct 195.166.128.11 255.255.255.255 212.159.29.5 eth-0 indirect 212.159.11.150 255.255.255.255 195.166.128.11 eth-0 indirect 212.159.13.159 255.255.255.255 195.166.128.11 eth-0 indirect 212.159.29.4 255.255.255.252 212.159.29.5 eth-0 direct 212.159.29.5255.255.255.255127.0.0.1 lo-o direct the routing table with the nat config is similar but the default route is via ppp-0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 195.166.128.11 ppp-0 indirect 195.166.128.11 255.255.255.255 212.159.29.5 ppp-0 direct The configuration (web and CLI) does not allow me to specify the interface when adding or modifying routes.

Re: [Scottish] ADSL router with no-nat configuration
I called the suppliers/manufacturers of the router who told me that I need 3 useable IP addresses for this particular router to work in a no-nat configuration. So looks like I would never have got it working with the info the ISP gave me. Hopefully they will increate my address range.
