Here's what I did to test (I'm on the 192.168.0.1 computer):
ipportfw -C
lynx http://192.168.0.1:80 (work's fine)
ipportfw -A -t 192.168.0.1/8080 -R 192.168.0.1/80
lynx http://192.168.0.1:8080 (seems to hang).

but http://195.96.x.y:8080 results in an "can not connect".

Hello. This may be needlessly picky, but most standard installs of mice put
them on com1, and the modem on com2. Try moving your mouse to com 1, and
disabling your com 2 in the CMOS settings, so that port address will be
available for the modem to grab. Then the sound card can go to it's normal
defaults of IRQ5, and IRQ 7 is still available for a later printer addition if
needed. Check your CMOS settings if you do this, and make sure that whichever
COM port your mouse is on is enabled, and unless you really need 3 serial ports,
that the other standard port is disabled.

This is another ethernet card(PCI NE2000, name:SN3200) problem
During boot my card is detected. But is says "blabla (no reset ack!)"
In the ethernet howto is states I shold write something like this:
append "ether=11,0xd100,11,0xbad,eth0"
My card has irq 11 (bios setting) and I get the IO from the failed boot
stuff.
But it doesn't work.
What I'd like to know is, what is that "bad" thingie? Should it just say
"bad" or should I write a real (non used) IO address??

You can use smbmount on the student linux box instead, and export the
directories using samba on your server. This way, each student can
mount his/her own home directory, since he/she will be challenged
every time they mount it.
The disadvantage is that smbmount (requiring smbfs) only runs on linux
the last time I heard, so if the student is running, e.g., freebsd,
everyone is out of luck. Samba (the server) runs on practically any
unix worth running on, and then some.

I'm not sure where to look for my problem so I thought I'd post. Heres the
setup. I'm using linux as a router between two networks 192.168.24. and
192.168.25. In the linux box both ethernet cards are host address one i.e.
192.168.24.1 and 192.168.25.1. All other host on both networks are running
flavors of NT. I can ping any host on either network from the linux box.
>From 192.168.25.65 I can ping any host on network 192.168.24.0 except
192.168.24.42 ( the NT server ). I can ping 192.168.24.42 sometimes but not
always and when I can't ping it I can still ping anything else and the linux
box can still ping 192.168.24.42.
Any ideas.

ipportfw requires the packet to go through the masq code to work. This
means it can't be tested from inside the masq firewall. Try using one
of the html syntax checking sites. The one I use is

All right, I never did actually find out what the problem was, but

Well, "nslookup" gives:
*** Can't find server name for address 24.64.3.139: Non-existent host/domain
*** Can't find server name for address 24.64.3.140: Non-existent host/domain
*** Default servers are not available
Now I know that these were that machines I was previously using under
Linux as nameservers. I also know that under win95 these two are
currently being used successfully as nameservers. When I try "ping
24.64.3.139", I find that the machine is up and running...so I don't
understand what it means by "default servers are not available".
When I try "dnsquery -n 24.64.3.139 -d ftp.cdrom.com" as a test, I get:
;; res_querydomain(ftp.cdrom.com, <Nil>, 1, 255)
;; res_query(ftp.cdrom.com, 1, 255)
;; res_mkquery(0, ftp.cdrom.com, 1, 255)

;; Querying server (# 1) address = 24.64.3.139
;; timeout
;; Querying server (# 1) address = 24.64.3.139
It appears that although the machine 24.64.3.139 is functional, it
apparently does not want to talk to my machine now.
Any ideas/suggestions?
