Hi,
I'm going to be setting up a 56k based Bering box for my parents home network. Did you have any trouble getting the modem to work? What type did you use and is it internal or external?
And thanks for all the stuff you've already written, really handy!

Hello all,
I need to use Bering uClibc with floppy disk, is it can use for sharing dial up internet connection ?.
Thank's ARIE
I recently used uClibc to make a dial out box (among other configurations) and everything will fit on a 1680 floppy.
make the floppy using the image file.
Replace the sh-httpd.lrp with the file in cvs - I think the image still
has the old version of this program
found here <http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/bin/packages/uclibc-0.9/20/s
h-httpd.lrp?rev=HEAD&content-type=application/octet-stream>
This is the section of the manual for configuring ppp http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/bucu-pppoa.html
If you want the dial up connection to reliably hangup the connection
You may want to replace the ppp.lrp file with the ppp-filter.lrp file found here:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/bin/packages/uclibc-0.9/20/
Just replace ppp-filter.lrp to ppp.lrp by renaming it and add the libpcap.lrp file to the floppy.
You can use the active-filter command to ignore certain of traffic
Everything will fit on the floppy if you delete the stuff you don't need
like pppoe.lrp.
I added the list in.
I built a few Bering dialout boxes for others - worked reliably for 2 years. I have used both internal and external modems. If internal - use an ISA modem - not pci - that are almost always software modems. I prefer the external modems that you can still find occsionally for about $15 but you need to use a box with a serail port based on the 16550 chip. Use com 2 - that has a higher interupt preference than com 1. Com 2 is ttyS1 in the ppp setup files.
.
I use the following active filter line in /etc/ppp/options
active-filter 'not(icmp[0]=0 or icmp[0]=3 or icmp[0]=8 or port 135 or port 137 or port 139 or port 445)'
