Subject: PCI + ISA NE2000 Cards

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have a pc that has two ethernet cards (NE2000).  The first is an ISA that
has been set as jumperless at io=0x300 irq=10, and the other is a ne2k_pci.
Anyways, I thought I'd try the 2.2 kernels, but my set up didn't work (DHCP
bombs, delaying eth initialization).  My own damn fault for not reading the
documentation.  Anyways I took out the pci card to test something, and now
when I put the pci card back in it jumps on eth0 at irq=10 and DHCP fails and
my networking isn't set up properly.  eth0 is supposed to DHCP my internet
address and as the default route, while eth1 is my local ethernet.  I'm using
a greatly modified redhat 5.1 setup.  How can I get my NE2000 to sit on
irq=10 and dhcp, while my eth1 grabs whatever is available?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian Seppanen

hmmm PENGUIN should be there somewhere... ... oh sorry that's with -c
option which shows the cache. First open network neighbourhood otherwise
there won't be anyting in the cache. 

You might try nbtstat -A <ip address of penguin>

In the internet explorer settings check connection tab and set to
connect to the internet using LAN instead of using a phone line. Then
DUN won't fire up first. Yes even though it is in iexplorer this setting
is global and effects all programms using TCP/IP.

Maybe your LAN problems have the following cause. The other machines on
your network have autosensing 10/100 mbps cards, your old card and your
unix were 10 mbps, so the other cards switched to 10 mbps. Now the new
card in your windows is also 10/100. So when you switch on you win
machines first the speed will switch to 100 mbps which will give
problems with cards that can only do 10. But then you should probably
see the collision leds lighting on your hub and NIC's.

Because it worked before you changed the network card in your windows
machine it is probably some lower level protocol that is going wrong. So
SAMBA settings aren't the obvious things to look at first.

First things like ping, telnet and ftp should work fine and then it's
time to start looking at Samba settings.

This is rather vague. If you have used windows NT and 95 machines in one
network you will know that in some cases the two are interchangeable,
but not allways.

A Windows (NT) domain is a workgroup with a shared userbase. So in a
domain the users are managed by one machine (a domain controller),
sometimes aided by one or more secondary dc's.

lmhosts file map NETBIOS names to IP adresses. The NETBIOS name of your
windows machine is the name you have entered in the.... (starting my

'computer name' entry.

Normally you only need this file if you want to access netbios smb
shares which are not on the same network.

On the same network machines announce their services via broadcasts. I
don't have any entry in my lmhosts file and can access my linux samba
server.

Again it's not needed. You might want to include you linux machine to
your \windows\hosts file to be able to ftp, telnet to it referring to
it's name.

If you really want to use a lmhosts entry to your linux machine than use
it's netbios name. Samba uses the host name for this. So don't add a
domain. Just penguin or even PENGUIN, but case doesn't seem very
important for NETBIOS /SMB.

Not necessary as all computers on the same network, but if you have to,
then only use the NETBIOS names certainly not FQDN's. But still this
won't be the cause of your problem because a)  it has worked before and
b) computers on the same network (in your case 192.168.1.0) use
broadcasts for NETBIOS /SMB services.

This is the broadcast I was writing about above.

Since ping works and ftp and telnet don't work either, it looks like
only small bits of information pass through the LAN unscathed. Only when
larger amounts of information have to pass things go fishy. Somehow I
suspect a hardware or transport level problem, maybe along the lines of
the speed I wrote about above. Try putting your cards at 10 mbps fixed
instead of autosensing. Check cables. Maybe you touched the cable
between the hub and your unix when changing the NIC in the windows
machine.

I believe there is no support for the 100B (ISA) cards.

If this is not true, cool I have a stack of them.

I think Donald Becker (author of the 100/PCI driver) felt that it was a
hassle and why do you want to attempt to run 100 Mhz on an 12 Mhz ISA
slot.

I'd be happy to get 10Mhz working on them, they are free to me (since
they are just sitting here).

Hope to be proved wrong!

Yes, the 3C509B ISA Card is listed in the Hardware-HOWTO with the
3c509.. so this should be o.k.  Issue the command "lsmod" and you should
see 3c509 listed as one of the modules.  I use this card myself.

Jay sounds like something is foul here.

1.  Issue the "ifconfig" command and verify that eth0 is listed with you
ip.
2.  Check /etc/hosts to verify that it contains this line:

127.0.0.1       localhost       localhost.localdomain

3.  Check /etc/sysconfig/network and verify that is looks something like
this:

NETWORKING=yes
FORWARD_IPV4="yes"
HOSTNAME=your.host.name
GATEWAY="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
GATEWAYDEV="eth0"

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your gateway machine.

4.  Check /etc/resolv.conf and verify that it looks something like this:

search your.domain
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

Here your domain would be something like network.com and the xxx, yyy
ips are you dns servers.

5.  Issue the command "netstat -nr" you should see your routing.  There
are two critical lines in here

 one:  127.0.0.0   0.0.0.0   255.0.0.0   U  etc.
 two:  0.0.0.0    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  0.0.0.0   UG  etc.

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your gateway's IP

I believe if this checks your you are in business.  If the "eth0" device
does not show up in the ifconfig command, there is a problem with the
kernel recognizing your ethernet card, which would be weird for a
3c509B.  But it can happen if there is an IRQ conflict (maybe you have
an internal modem or another network card on board?)

If the card is recognized as eth0, then its just a matter of getting the
above files in place.  Also, when you installed RedHat, did you select
the "custom," "host" or "workstation" install?  If you selected
"workstation" the networking may not be turned on.  I've only installed
the other two versions.

good luck

p.s.  Compared to the NT servers you should see a nice speed improvement
with your linux box and the network. I do ;-)

MIke since I don't know which linux version you are working with, I'm
not sure this will help.  And you may have already done this, but what
I'd suggest is: 

1.  Check the file /etc/inetd.conf and ensure that the in.ftpd and
in.telnetd lines are uncommented.

2.  Issue the command "ps -ax" to see which daemons are running.  Look
for "inetd".  If you don't see it then you need to start it at boot..
that's the daemon that runs the various network services, including ftp 
and telnet.

3.  If your machine is on a public network (internet for example), watch
your machines security (read security-HOWTO).  In particular, I'd
suggest that, in addition to the usual password security, you modify
these files:

a.  the file /etc/hosts.deny contain the line ALL: ALL
b.  the file /etc/hosts.allow contain lines like:

     in.ftpd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
     in.telnetd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx are the ip's of the machine you want to have
telnet/ftp access to your machine.  Of course if you have multiple
machines they can each be listed, or if you want a subnet to have
access, you can change those lines to something like

     in.ftpd:  xxx.xxx.xxx.0/24  or  in.ftpd:  xxx.xxx.0.0/16

depending upon what type of subnet you are talking about. With this
arrangement, only designated machines would have telnet and ftp access
to your box.. of course if you want anonymous ftp access then use
something like:

     in.ftpd: ALL

Good luck

Perhaps it's me that's confused, as I'm just getting up to
speed on subnet nomenclature and ipfwadm, but it appears
as though you put in the gateway IP instead of the network
address.

I didn't have any luck with rrlogind on Austin RR.  I'm using the rrlogin
perl script, with a cron job to call the rrlogin script every hour
(I think here timeout is set to about 90 minutes)

It depends on what you want to do.

You CAN NOT ping those machines directly, since they are hidden by the 
masquerading firewall.

You CAN set up the masquerading firewall to "port forward" packets 
received on certain ports to certain machines. So, say you you have a 
mail server running on one of the windoze boxes, then you could port 
forward smtp and pop packets to that windoze box. You can do the same 
thing with a proxy server. 

In other words, you select which types of connections to permit to a 
given box inside your network. But that's a far cry from having full 
access to the machine.

  I see a backorfice-unix-client rpm on RedHat mirror sites -- what does it
do?

Check your hosts.deny and hosts.allow in your /etc directory.  Make sure
there's nothing there intefering.
As for SAMBA, I've never had good luck with it, so I just run everything
TCP/IP straight up.  I like it better that way anyway. :-)

I already have the correct PPD on the client machines, is it necessary
to have it on the server too?
