Actually, I was going to say just the opposite. I'm trying this and I
found that mounting /usr over nfs didn't work well unless I also
mounted /lib over nfs. Software installed on a Linux machine
frequently has part of itself in /usr and part in /lib so if you mount
/usr remotely and /lib locally you are likely to have problems unless
you've installed the same software on both machines. In which case,
why mount /usr over nfs?

Currently I have Linux installed on a 212MB hard drive accessing /usr,
/lib, and /home over nfs (to a machine with an 8.5GB hard drive). My
eventual goal is to create a floppy disk that will boot Linux without
using the local hard drive at all.

I'd like to be able to stick a floppy disk into a Windows NT machine
on the same Ethernet as my Linux machine and have the Windows NT
machine behave as a fully functional Linux machine without affecting
the NT installation at all. I've followed the Boot Disk Howto, but no
luck so far.

Subject: PPP & ARP Proxy problems
Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 13:30:58 +1300

Well I've got as far as getting the Linux box logging in to my ISP via
PPP. Can run Netscape via a Win95 Xserver even, and Samba works too.

However, even though I've told my Win95 box that my Linux box is a
gateway, I can't access the web on the Win95 box (unless of course I
plug the modem into it directly, which spoils the point).

I do get some errors concering Proxy ARP in my message log:

Jan 11 12:52:45 hawk pppd[299]: pppd 2.3.3 started by root, uid 0
Jan 11 12:53:17 hawk pppd[299]: Serial connection established.

I've been through the Masquerade and PPP HOWTOs with no luck, and even
scoured the dejanews comp.os.linux archive. If someone can help me with
suggesting where I'm fouling things up, I'd appreciate it. I'll even
update the FAQ!

Jeff,

    I had this same problem with my Linksys Ether16 card.  It turns out that
Linksys ships their cards with Plug-N-Play enabled.  I simply used the DOS
utility that came with the card to disable PNP.  Linux likes NIC cards at
Bass Address 0x300 at IRQ 10, so try manualy setting your card to those
settings.  Linux should find it then.

There is a virtual ftp patch for wuftpd.  It only recognizes
anon ftp access for virtual domains.  You can get it at the
same places you can get wuftpd.  I got it from
http://www.linuxhq.com, in the Linux Software Browser.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Dual NIC
Date: Sat, 9 Jan 1999 19:34:44 -0500

Hello,

I have a Linux box setup with IP Masquerading.  The box now has 2 NIC's one
to a cable modem and one for my LAN.  I previously had only one card
connecting my LAN to the interned via Linux (which was only connected using
PPP and a 33.6 serial modem).  I recently signed up with MediaOne cable so
installed a second card.  Instead of running pppd, I had to switch to dhcpd.
I was soon up and running.  I downloaded a 9MB file in about a minute and a
half (during non peak time of course).  My problem is this.  My Linux box
was running a web server with a registered domain alphalinx.com.  Until I
can transfer the domain I need to keep the server active.  I figured all I
had to do was use the pppd in conjunction with the dhcp demeon.  However,
all network traffic on the LAN of Win'95 computers gets routed through the
serial port instead of the network interface (eth0) which is connected to
the cable modem.  Why is traffic defaulting to the serial port and how do I
change this to the cable modem route?

Thanks in advance
Keith

I have the same thing,and found ppp scripts at:

it seems to take care of the problem, (although i'm having other problems with

If you with telnet get a 'connected to ...' and then nothing more just
add a entry for the second machine in /etc/hosts.

Date: Sat, 09 Jan 1999 11:36:21 -0700

If your NE2000 card is PCI, you can execute the following command to see
the exact chipset:

cat /proc/pci | more

This will list the memory addresses, interrupts, and chipsets of all pnp
pci cards and chipsets on the motherboard of your system.  Unlike
another suggestion, I did not have to manually configure the memory
address of my NE2000 card (RealTek 8139 chipset).  But I am using a P100
box with pnp bios.

Once I knew the chipset, I just read the 'Ethernet-HOWTO' for the
sections on NE2000 cards, recompiled my kernel and viola!  No problem.

You can get the 'Ethernet-HOWTO' at the linux documentation project:

It is normal & for security reason. If you want to enable root access
via telnet, add addditionl entry into /etc/securetty for telnet session.
Offhand, don't remember what tty for telnet, but somebody should be able
to guide you here.

Hello ,

I have a small network running.  My multiboot Server, Linux / Windoze98.
When in 98 the other stations can print and access the net via sharing and
Sygate proxy.

When I boot into Linux the other stations can use the web, mail, ftp etc...
via ip masq.

I how ever can't print or see the Linux Box except by pinging it by ip.

I have tried setting up Samba and have had no luck.  I haven't found a good
HOWTO. Can anyone give me a helpful instruction package.

Also on my Windows side I have my own domain via inetcam.com.. I use a
windows based program that sends my ip to them and they use my
vgaphost.inetcam.com as the IP fowarding.  I use the PWS and Sygate prozy
firewall to host my Local ftp and web site.

By now you are wondering were I am going.. Appache was installed via the
Redhat 5.2 package.  I upgraded from 5.0 adding everything.. I can't seem to
get it working.. I start it goto another computer on my land and http:// IP
or vgaphost  and get nothing.  Can anyone help with this..

Thanks in advance for any help given...

I had the same problem for a while.  Insure all your ppp-on additions are double
checked.  I had the ppp
scripts off in a seperate dir and when I ran ppp-on out of /etc/ppp it ran ok
and the LCP drops and errors
stopped.  Something bogus creaped into my ppp-on scripts I think.  I re-edited
fresh copies of the scripts - put
them back into my other dir and now it runs without the LCP errors.  I have
heard of this happening to a few
other people with not explination of what triggers the LCP errors.  There are
values that can be putzed with
in the options file for LCP but chances are the problem is not there if you had
ppp working at one time.  See
PPP-HOWTO and search on LCP.

Date: Sat, 9 Jan 1999 18:31:36 -0600

First what I have:

Redhat Linux 5.2
KPC-3 TNC
Kenwood 733

First when I ran kissattatch I got an error "cannot open axports file" so I
moved the file to the root directory and that whent away.

Now Im getting: kissattach: TIOCSETD: Invalid argument.

I used the following command line:

kissattach -i 204.189.115.85 -m 512  /dev/ttyS2 radio

my axports file has one line:

radio    kd5abq    1200    256    2    test

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Date: Sat, 09 Jan 1999 17:11:51 -0600

I got mgetty+sendfax sources and compiled it.  The binary came with SuSE
5.3 but I couldn't make it work, probably wasn't compiled with the
-DAUTO_PPP switch, whatever.  Greg Doering wrote a great program, and
the docs are great.  I edited the makefile to set:
        #define DEVICE_GROUP "modem"
        #define DEFAULT_PORTSPEED 38400
        #define MAX_LOGIN_TIME 60
        #define LOG_PATH "/var/log/mgetty.%s"
        CFLAGS=-02 -Wall -pipe -DAUTO_PPP

In the login.config:
/AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login modem crtscts
proxyarp

In /etc/inittab:
mo:23:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/mgetty -D ttyS1
The -D means don't answer fax calls, the ttyS1, rather than modem, is
the recomendation of the author.

/etc/ppp/options:
        lock (you may need -detach, Greg advised to try without first)

//etc/ppp/options.ttyS1:
        172.20.1.1:172.20.1.5 (I use masquerade & non-internet-routable 
                IPs; .1 is the server, .5 is the modem)

It works.

For a client all you need is one or more lines with "server <servername>".

This one has a lot in it: http://www.inria.fr/semir/reseau/ntp
It is a linux box with a GPS card in it.

Subject: Routing across multiple NICs
Date: Sat, 9 Jan 1999 15:22:25 -0800

Hello,

I'm setting up my first Linux box running 5.2.  My machine is configured
with two network cards.  eth0 is connected to my private network using
192.168.0.254 all machines other machines on the private have
192.168.0.x addresses as well.  eth1 is connected to the internet via an
ADSL connection and gets it's address via DHCP from my ISP.  This is all
working fine.  However, my home network also has a gateway to the
internet via another machine.  I would like to configure my Linux box so
that eth0 *only* allows packets addressed to 192.168.0.x machines onto
that network and all other packets go out onto the internet via eth1.
I'm sure this is explained in one of the HowTos, but I couldn't find
it...  I'd appreciate it if anyone could show me the proper route
commands I'll need to accomplish this routing.

Thanks,

  -Scott

add a route on the linux box to the network card on the nt gateway box.  Is
the network made known
by putting it in /etc/networks ..... for a class c say:  ntgatewaynetwork
192.168.1  in networks for the
card 192.168.1.1 on the nt gateway.

Thanks... I looked at hummingbird something or another, but is was some
funky dos setup, and even with my 7 years of dos work, I couldn't get it
to install correctly. Maybe I got an outdated version, though.....

Any other sugguestions, if that dosen't work?
