Iam using Dacstein 1.0.2 with all defaults. Dual floppy's [write protected] (only configured both NIC's) for over a year with no problems on an ATT cable modem network.
The system is LRP on 486 using default 192.168.1.254 2 ISA NIC's LRP NIC #1 (eth0) to Motorola Cable Modem LRP NIC #2 (eth1) to Addtron Router Cable Port (crossover cable) Addtron E200P hardware router (192.168.2.1) ATT Motorol Surfboard cable modem Various internal PC's connect to Router at 192.168.2.x (statc ip's) Normally it picks up my ATT DHCP server at 24.126.x.x and returns a DHCP IP of 24.x.x.x. which usually doesn't change for 90 days or more. Problem: What is now happening is the DHCP Offer is from a 10.235.112.1 (a privite IP address) as a DHCP server but returns the same IP address I usually receive from the ATT DHCP server (24.x.x.x). Niote: The logs show this 10.235.112.1 address as being denied. <snip> Nov 19 19:19:16 joshua kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=1 10.235.112.1:0 24.30.109.131:0 L=84 S=0x00 I=1815 F=0x0000 T=255 (#8) Nov 19 19:19:17 joshua kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=1 10.235.112.1:0 24.30.109.131:0 L=84 S=0x00 I=1816 F=0x0000 T=255 (#8) Nov 19 19:31:51 joshua kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=17 10.235.112.1:67 255.255.255.255:68 L=339 S=0x00 I=1168 F=0x0000 T=255 (#8) Nov 19 19:31:59 joshua kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=17 10.235.112.1:67 255.255.255.255:68 L=339 S=0x00 I=1177 F=0x0000 T=255 (#8) <snip> Observation: (1) If a set up a Bering 1.0rc3 box I get the same results as above (2) Replaced the eth0 NIC and still get the same results (3) If I setup on a single PC as DHCP and bypass the LRP box, I get the correct ATT DHCP server, DNS info etc. Supposing this is not a crack, (no evidence on LRP or PC's) but a misconfigured system on the network, Can the LRP DHCP be set to restrict use to a 24.x.x.x IP to avoid this type of problem. AT&T as usual has no clue, so I replaced the modem but get the same results. AT&T authenticates its connections via the MAC address of the modem which must be registered on their system. Thanks, Ivory PS: what must be changed so that the logs capture all the boot messages? The DHCP messages:DHCPDiscover, DHCPOffer etc. don't appear in any logs, or at least I haven't found (looked in the right place) them? I have to do a pause when this info is on screen. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus � Powerful. Affordable.
