first thing: did you configure your kernel to support networking, some
protocol, ( normally tcpip) , and your nic? compile, install, ( run lilo ),
then your card should be rcognized - after that worry about irqs and stuff

you don't seem to have a gateway in your routing table. I had to play
with that for quite a while to get it working for me... here's what mine
looks like so you can get an idea of what you need to have in there
$ route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 130.157.44.7 255.255.252.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
130.157.44.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
130.157.44.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 130.157.44.7 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
$
I'm not exactly sure why I have the duplicate enteries in there, but it
doesn't seem to work without them. I also don't have it entered in the
proper config files (they seem to screw stuff up), but I have all the
ifconfig and route commands at the end of rc.local. just play around
with these commands and write down what works
Hope this helps

Subject: Dhcpcd problem: "auto negotiation failed"?
Date: Thu, 18 Feb 1999 16:58:41 +0800
Dear linux world,
Thank you very much for helping me to setup dhcpcd, but it doesn't work
properly still.
It is very strange. It only works in the steps as follow:
1. run /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia
2. run /etc/rc.d/init.d/network which add a loopback and /sbin/dhcpcd eth0,
but message "eth0: auto negotiation failed ; 10Mbps" will appear.
3. after a while when the signal light of the network card turned off,
/sbin/dhcpcd eth0 again..... then it works (ifconfig shows lo and good eth0
ip).
That is it only works on running at the second time, after the network card
is turned on the first time in failure (at this time ifconfig shows both lo
and eth0 with ip 0.0.0.0) and then turned off automatically (at this time
ifconfig shows only lo but no eth0).
What's wrong?... Can somebody tell me?
Thank you very much.
Regards
John

Question....
How does one tell the driver to use the 3c509 AIU, or the RJ41 interface?
The driver picked my BNC and I am using the RJ41. Help!!!!!! I'd really love
to get this interface up and running.
Thanks in advance

Subject: Static IP to DHCP not working on @home
Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1999 06:16:59 GMT
Hi,
I have looked over the various newsgroups and not seen this problem so I'm
hoping someone can provide an answer (or I'll be bald from pulling my hair
out). Here goes...
Up until yesterday my connection to @home on RedHat 5.2 was working great
with a static IP. Well, they switched my connection to DHCP provided IPs so
I changed my networking accordingly in both Win98 (works) and Linux (only
half works) and it went downhill from there. DHCP does not seem to be
passing the correct networking info on to my networking programs.
On booting Linux, symptoms are that DHCP shows 'done' but when both 'amd'
and 'sendmail' are being loaded they stall for several minutes. Once logged
in I can only ping using IP addresses. As soon as I try and use a name ie
internic.net, ping and all other networking programs stall. I figured
they're not seeing my DNS or Gateway info properly or something like that.
My /etc/resolv.conf shows the correct DNSs and domain copied from
/etc/dhcpc/resolv/conf.
ifconfig shows
-usual lo stuff
-eth0 inet addr: 24.64.x.x bcast: 24.64.211.255 mask: 255.x.x.x
-no RX or TX errors, drops, etc and packets sent
netstat -nr shows:
24.64.208.0 0.0.0.0 255.x.x.x etc for eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 etx for lo
Netscape stalled in X as well and actually hung me in X so all I could think
of at the time was the last resort of power off. Linux did not like this at
all and I had to fsck and it left nightmares of reinstalls in my mind just
when I thought I had it beat :-).
I am stumped and a semi-newby so....please! help if you can. Thanks.

HAVE the names and adresses in /etc/hosts , right ? if you want ( or have to
) dig deeper try tcpdump - logs the tcp-packets send ( or received) online,
might give you an idea whats up ( or whats not)

I'm giggling. I spent the afternoon at a company that is having
stability problems with their DEC Alpha based NT boxes. I asked them
what the uptime was like and they kinda shrugged and said about six to
seven hours at a time. No kidding. I suggested scrapping them and
putting in Solaris based Sun boxes and they looked at each other and
then said - "We can't administer unix".
I said "What could be worse, a set of servers that crash three times a
day - OR - a server that you look at once every week and then
call in someone to do administration for you - remotely. Meanwhile your
users and management are happy cause your email system hasn't stopped
working. You have uptime measured in months?"
You can guess the answer. People are learning - slowly - but they are
learning.

Perhaps we should get Ulrika Johnson to write the next version then? <g>
I think the success of Linux has more to do with the input from thousands of
people worldwide rather than one guy.
Ironic given the amount of text on open source how we still want a single
person to identify the product with.
All MS bugs are Bill Gates fault all Linux bugs are Linus' fault?

Thank you very much. Got my iMac connected to Linux in no time after getting
the appropriate Linux packages from RH and compiled the kernel to support DPP.
Now, guess I'll take a look the Linux->iMac backup packages.

Jim:
Sorry about that. I soon realized after finishing the book that I
should have included a bit more info to bridge the gap between the simple
firewall introduced in chp8 and the dedicated one in 10.
You should be able to modify the ipfwadm rules shown in chapter 8 to
work in the situation that you describe by adding the following
masquerade rule:
ipfwadm -F -a masq -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
This rule allows the other computers on your private network to
access the net through the Linux box that is directly connected. You
will, of course, have to modify the source address (192.168.1.0) if your
system has different values (as well as adapt the other filtering rules
in a similar fashion).
The second printing of the book includes additional discussion and a
script called "firewall.simpl" for situations where a separate firewall is
not used. I've posted that script along with updates and errata on my web
page:
www.swcp.com/~pgsery/LNTK
I hope that this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Regards,
Paul

Are these solutions available on NT. I need to redirect from NT to an internal

Subject: Cable lengths
Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1999 09:57:59 GMT
I've got two buildings, about 100' apart.
I'm wondering what the best way to cable the
two together will be. (We're getting xDSL
installed in one building, but residents in
the other want a piece of the access as well.)
We'll be stringing the cable outside, basically
from tree to tree. =)
I guess my questions are these:
1. 10BaseT is listed as having a 100 meter cable
run limit, which would be just about long enough
to run from one hub (directly connected to our
server/router via 10BaseT) to the windowsill of
the other building, where we could stick an
additional hub. Is the 100 meter limit a total
limit per network segment, or could we go hub-to-
hub with a cable of roughly 250'?
2. Would we be better to invest in a pair of inexpensive
hubs with 10BaseT and 10Base2 ports, and run 10Base2
from one building to a hub on the window-sill of the
other?
We're college students doing this out-of-pocket, so
expensive esoteric gear is kinda out of the question.
Practical, cheap advice is always much appreciated! :-)
