I also wanted to clarify about the time it takes before hanging up... I said
30 seconds before, however that was just an estimate.
my pppd is version 2.3.5, which is the latest release, and what the kernel
says to use, so there should be any problems there.

I only use ttyS1-ttyS4. The others are left over from some other problems I

differently lemme know.
only other note here is that my modem is on /dev/ttyS2. my chatscript is
setup to use /dev/modem which is a static link to /dev/ttyS2
I'm not sure what the dates mean, the only thing I can tell you here is
/dev/ttyS2 is where my modem is located...
if anyone needs any additional information just ask...

Best to get it off the CD or someplace other than installing
again. But for reference you could have done a custom install
and include just about everything a server install gets if you
even need it all. If you do not need the space recommended for
/homes then that's something like 512 in the RH recommendation.
You can chop off a few more meg with ease. A 1 gig disk is big
enough to run a server with maquerading
and samba and still have room for fishtank.

Subject: FTP not working w/ipchains, help desperately needed
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 18:33:10 GMT
Had IP Masquerading working PERFECTLY with Kernel 2.0.36, but for
reasons beyond my control I had to upgrade to 2.2.1.
It almost works! All I want (for now) is my internal LAN to be able
to access the 'Net using IP Masquerading. So under 2.0.36 I was
doing:
# Kernel 2.0 Forwarding...
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -f
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -p deny
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_irc
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_ftp
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_raudio
And everything worked PERFECTLY. Under the 2.2 kernel, through a
confusing array of HOWTOS on ipmasq, ipfwadm and ipchains..I figured I
needed only this:
# Kernel 2.2 Forwarding
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 192.168.1.0/24\
-d 0.0.0.0/0
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_irc
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_ftp
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_raudio
And that ALMOST works, except that nobody on the LAN can reliably FTP
out onto the 'Net going through the Masquerading host. (FTP hangs,
gives messages like "unable to create data socket", etc...) HTTP
works, telnet works, everything else works (even ICQ!). I realize
that FTP requires a two-way connection but was hoping that the module
(which was recompiled for 2.2, thank you) would take care of that like
it had before.
Any help is appreciated.
PS: To the author of the IPCHAINS-HOWTO: if you read this I'd be MORE
THAN HAPPY to help re-write the section entitled "I'm confused!
Routing Masquerading, ipautofw..." You never explained the differences
between those technologies and left the whole thing a confusing mess.

I have this problem when trying to add 2 3c905 network cards onto the same

the ip address on the card on eth1 is recognised by the outside world and

whereas the card on eth0 can not be pinged and will not ping out

Hey,
How can Microsoft Corporation be a member of the W3C? I thought they OWNED them
already?
Personally I think the world would be much better off if we all used the same browser
anyway. Of course it would have to fully support mshttp and msjava (or is that
vbscript?),
right?
Listen, this might be a good time to think about Linux advocacy. We're all good people

First off, interoperability.
If you set up an SMTP server on a Linux box
you can do mail with the rest of the world quite easily.
Exchange will be a big problem even doing standard SMTP
on the internet.
Second, clients. You could use Exchange servers and only
use their SMTP/POP|IMAP functionality. But if you are going
to do that to gaurantee all clients can use the mail system
then why bother with Exchange and NT when you could have
a much more stable system with massively more capacity
on the same hardware with Linux or BSD or another UNIX
variant?
There are SMTP/POP|IMAP clients for every platform known
to man. Heck I have a friend with pine on an HP calculator
for gods sake!
In a large company I know they use Linux/Sendmail
MTA's, Netscape Mail Server on NT for user
account mail hosts. Netscape as a standard for clients.
Not a terrible setup, but the biggest headaches they have
are the NT boxes. They crash continuously, can't handle the
load of 1,000 users per Dual Pentium Pro 200MHz 128MB RAM
system. So there are lots of them.
Heck, look at the cost of licensing 1 1000 user NT box for
every 1000 e-mail accounts. Now, look at the cost of the
PC hardware and the cost of Exchange. If you want to use
all of Exchange's fancy bells and whistles you have immediately
limited full inclusion of your e-mail community to people
who can run Outlook on their machine.
Now look at the cost of having a Linux Professional come in
and set up 1 equivalent Linux Box for every 5 NT boxes you
were going to set up. You can pay this Linux/E-mail admin
a consultancy fee for his experience with the money you
saved on the NT licenses, HW expenses and MS software expenses
and still save money.
What have you lost? You have IMAP, you can set up news servers
and discussion groups. You could set up Web servers to handle
collabarative things like calenders and such.
Stick with standards, don't get locked into expensive instable
proprietary systems that will limit the freedom of the students
and the staff of the university.
You may find that management is touchy about using Public
software, and not having a big corporate logo to cover their
ass.
If that is the case then have them look at SUN! You can get
SUN hardware for not too much more than PC hardware these days.
I just ordered an ULTRA 60 Dual 366MHz UltraSparc with a 76GB
Raid array and 512MB of RAM for $17K. Not bad. Plus sun
has Sendmail and pop/news/imap servers. You can get commercially
supported apache for it. This way your corporate-weener types
don't get their panties in a bind over "NO GAURANTEE" contract.

How can I tell if a network cable (rj-45) is a crossover or straight-through
(if that's the right word)? I bought one before I even knew there were more
than one kind, so I don't have the package anymore, and I've since bought a
10Base-T hub, so I want to know if it will work between that and a 3c509 ISA
card.
Secondly, is there a way to connect an Etherlink II card with a BNC jack to a
hub with an rj-45 jack to talk to Etherlink III cards?
Finally, what is that other (15-hole) port on a network card for, and does it
have anything to do with the answer to my second question?

No problem. I have the same network configuration here running at home.
I've got two ethernet cards. The first is used for the local network and
is compiled directly in the kernel and is (if-)configured in rc.inet1
(Slackware).
The driver for the ethernet card which is connected to the cable modem is
compiled as module. (Two ethernet cards in the kernel can give problems.)
In the file rc.inet2 (Slackware) I run `dhcpcd eth1` and that
configures the second network connection.
Thats really all you have to do (for configuring the network connections).

going only to find it dies after a few seconds with the message:\
Recieve serial link is not 8-bit clean:
