My own problems with ppp have started just after installing ppp-2.3.5-1
It worked great before that, the catch is that if you don't install this
you won't be able to use the new kernel.

What I found out is that if the PC has been on for too long I will not be able
to get a good internet connection. It connects and according to /var/log/messages
I had a nice clean connection. On the other hand I can't ping anything. Netscape
will load on the task list but that's about it. NcFTP may crash trying to connect
to a ftp site. Sometime I can connect after a lot of redial and tries of different
numbers but the connection to the internet doesn't stay. The modem doesn't hang up
just ppp seems to be dead. A reboot fixes things, for a while ...

Apparently PPP isn't an important issue as no one seem to either care or believe
that we have problems. I would love to know where the problem is.

It's working.
I'm beginning to understand a lot better how it works.
If I want it to work all the time I'll have to play with the ppp-up script (I guess)
because of my dynamic IP adress.
Thank you very much for your help.

how do i make the start_masq file or edit it? I have no clue.
i did everything else, but still can't get the eth0 and ppp0
to work together. If i deactivate the eth0 i can connect to the net
if i deactivate the ppp0 i can do the internal networking stuff.
but they will not work together at the same time. This is very frustraiting
and i'm real close to giving up on linux.

Subject: IP Forwarding + IP Masquerading + Security
Date: Wed, 03 Mar 1999 16:37:25 GMT

I have a Linux 2.0.36 Kernel running with IP Masquerading turned on and all
internal traffic being forwarded to the internet and masqueraded fine.
Here's my rc.firewall:

#!/bin/sh
#
# /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall, define the firewall configuration, invoked from
# /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
#
#Setup the firewall modules:
depmod -a
modprobe ip_masq_ftp
modprobe ip_masq_raudio
modprobe ip_masq_irc

#Setup the firwall rules:
ipfwadm -I -f
ipfwadm -I -p accept
ipfwadm -O -f
ipfwadm -O -p accept
ipfwadm -F -f
ipfwadm -F -p reject
# Masquerade from local net on local interface to anywhere.
ipfwadm -F -a masquerade -S 192.168.2.0/16 -D 0.0.0.0/0


This works great, but I am concerned about security. I do not run any
servers on the internal machines of the network (My Win98 box, and my wife's
iMac), but I'd like to know if this setup would allow any malicious users
into my network. It looks to me like only packets that originate from one of
my internal machines will be forwarded to the network and that all packets
will be accepted by the linux box. Am I vulnerable to "spoofing" or any
other cracker tricks?

TIA,

        Donley

Same here. I can't get mine to connect. Even people from outside can't connect.
Just to be safe I'm covering everything. I have an FTP server running on
192.168.1.2 port 22. The machine 192.168.1.1 is my Linux box with IP Masq on it and
ipportfw and all those tools.

/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -C
/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -u167.206.209.24/22 -R 192.168.1.2/22
/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -t167.206.209.24/22 -R 192.168.1.2/22
/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -u192.168.1.1/22 -R 192.168.1.2/22
/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -t192.168.1.1/22 -R 192.168.1.2/22
/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -L
Prot Local Addr/Port > Remote Addr/Port

UDP 167.206.209.24/22 > 192.168.1.2/22

UDP 192.168.1.1/22 > 192.168.1.2/22

TCP 167.206.209.24/22 > 192.168.1.2/22

TCP 192.168.1.1/22 > 192.168.1.2/22

And still everyone gets unable to connect to port 22. Same as Hans is getting.
Anyone have any ideas why?

Subject: Linux 2.2.2 and DOS ftp
Date: Wed, 03 Mar 1999 09:04:28 -0800


I have a small network with 1 Dos and 3 Linux boxes.

I upgraded one of the Linux machines to 2.2.2, the
others are running 2.0.36..

I am using NCSA FTP 2.3.08 and have had problems
with it hanging when using dir/ls and file transfers.
This only occurs on Linux 2.2.x and works great on 2.0.36.

Using Ftp between Linux/2.0.26 and Linux/2.2.2 works great...

I have changed to different ftpd's (wu.ftp, BeroFTPD, etc) -
all with the same problem.

I have also tried WATTCP FTP v0.65 that has the same problems.

NCSA Telnet works great as well as kermit.... 

I noticed that CONFIG_INET_PCTCP is not is the new tcp_input.c .
I have this activated in v2.0.36 .
   
Any help would be greatly appreciated........................

Well, I might be jumping in late (just recently discovered this ng to be 
precise), but here at my school we had a lot of different names.

One server is named organ (as in body parts), clients are eye, brain, skin, 
lung, kidney, colon, etc.  Another is deadrock (dead rock stars), clients are
bonham, vicious, morrison, cobain (etc).  Another server named tribe, clients
include iriquois, cherokee, pawnee etc.  Yet another server named tool, clients
include hammer, laith, etc.  And even yet another server was building, clients
were hopsital, school, etc etc.  Tree had elm, pine, cedar, oak (which made it
confusing sometimes when talking about elm or pine and not talking about the
email reader).

There were a ton of others too (We had a TON of machine names), but we're 
switching platforms and all of that is changing now.  It seems the way it was
done was to pick a theme (almost anything will work) and that is your server's
name, then the cliets are types of the server's name, or attributes.  Right
now my desktop RH box is called Atlantis, it pretty much stands alone, but I 
plan on adding machines to it and will probably change the name, and have norse
gods, or beers, something that I find myself intereted in at the time.

I am officially finished babbling about this for now.

Uhh - is it me or don't you all have to enter a username and password EVERY
time you log onto the net.

You are also allocated a dynamic IP address which your ISP could easily
track.

You EVEN give your email to all and bloody sundry so they can spam you.

What difference does your chip going "Hi there" make ??

To me - sod all !

IF however you are some juvenile machine cracker then tough shit - sod Intel
finding out who you are - do my machine and I will find you out.

Thats my whinge over anyway.

Correction. The FTP lets the user log in. But after they log in they get a "no responce

Two things come to mind.  One is that some USR modems need AT&F1
initialization.  The other is that you may need to specify the pppd
option "asyncmap 0" for ppp-2.3.5, it was the default in ppp-2.2.0 but
this changed and is causing some people trouble.  It may be the reason
for the failure that occurs in the IPCP negotiations.

Have a look at http://www.indyramp.com/mirrors/ipmasq/rh5setup.html
Whilst it is written for RedHat, the instructions are valid for Slackware
too. And it's all on the one page :)

Basically, you just edit the ONE file /etc/rc.d/rc.local with the commands
listed (depending on your internal network address), make sure that your
etrhernet works, and you're set. Make sure that all other machines
recognise your gateway machine, and that you include the IP address(es) of
your ISP in the /etc/resolv.conf file of your other machines. Mine shows

search ozemail.com.au
nameserver 203.2.193.124
nameserver 203.2.192.124
nameserver 192.168.1.2

Good luck
