Sounds like packets are getting through the server OK. Apparently,
forwarding is working on the server, but not on the firewall.

I'm stumped. My friends are stumped. My ISP is stumped...
I recently installed a modem in my Linux machine. Everything seemed to
go quite easily. Little did I know...
When I try to connect to my ISP, everything fires up normally and I
establish a link, but for some reason my defaultroute doesn't seem to
work. I have the defaultroute option selected in my PPPD connect
statement (it doesn't show up as 0.0.0.0 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX as I expect
in route -n). I've tried doing a "route add 0 gw XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" (I get
an entry, but I still can't ping anyone besides my ISP). I've been
through the man pages and the HOW-TO's. I've configured and
reconfigured. Obviously I'm missing something, but I sure don't know
what it is. Anyone have any ideas???

Found out the problem (finally).
The cable modem cached the Ethernet address apparently, and so powering it
off and back on cleared it out. I did this & connected with Linux, then the
Wintendo machine wouldn't connect.
Sorry for the wasted message, but maybe this will help solve someone else's
problem also.

Wow, almost identical to me, I can add a bit of info, mabe the same for you.

I spent a week fiddling before I discovered TCPDUMP on the linux
distribution disk (it diden't load when I installed Linux)
With TCPDUMP running on the Linux Box I do a PING from windows and
watch the traffic on Linux it shows the "whohas" queries comming in from the
windows box and shows the right IP and MAC numbers, then it shows the
correct responses being sent. The windows machine just does the timed out
thing.
If I do a ping from another console on Linux the tcpdump shows the query
being sent out and nothing else.
>From this I believe the problem is with the winblows machine. But there seem
to be very few tools on windows to figure out what is wrong.
Doing a "route print" shows the expected address, but doing an arp -a shows
no entries.
Using dial-ppp on windows adds the isp's addresses to the route table and
adds an entry to the arp table, and all works ok for this connection.
It looks like windows talks to eth0 but either is not listening or unable to
understand what is comming back.

Back when I only had a shell account with an ISP, I used a product
called TIA
to make PPP connections using my shell account. There were a couple of
caveats,
though. 1. The connection to the host had to be 8 bits. 2. You have
to use the IP
address of the host and setup port redirection for other boxes to get to
yours.
For example, if your host was 10.0.1.1 and you wanted to run X, tyou
would have to define a port redirection on the PPP emulator that
redirected some arbitrary port number to port 6000 on your box.
I'm not sure if TIA is still available, but there was another product
called SLiRP which
did the same thing. Check out the following URL for some information:
http://www.linux.org.tr/ldp/HOWTO/mini/SLIP-PPP-Emulator.html
Hope this helps.

Reply-To: Faheem Mitha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Dear People,
I have a question to which I had always assumed the answer
is no, but someone seems to think differently, so I thought it worth
checking.
I have X running under Linux (Redhat 5.1) on my home computer. I don't
have an ISP (no money 'cause I'm a student) but I do have an account at my
university (on Suns running X), which is on the internet.
I connect to the machine in my univ department using Kermit via a bank of
modems (I think) supplied by the uni. (I'm a little vague about this part,
but I dial in and the modem connects to another modem, and then I get a
menu and I choose a number from the menu and I get a choice of host, and I
type in the machine name I want to connect to and login.)
Then the login session takes over the Xterm I started Kermit in. (I can't
run multiple login sessions). What I would like to have is to be able to
run Xapps like netscape by remote so that the windows pop up on my screen.
However, as far as I know, my uni doesn't have any of those nice protocols
(like PPP) that, as I understand it, make this kind of thing a piece of
cake. When I type emacs (for example), I get
lib: connection to "aardvark:0.0" refused by server
lib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
emacs: Cannot connect to X server aardvark:0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
connections from your machine.
However, I don't see how setting xhost on my machine would help, since it
is not networked. In fact I tried it and it just hangs. So my question
is, is it possible to run emacs and netscape et al by remote or not? It
would be extremely nice, but my feeling is that the answer is no. If you
have information to the contrary, please let me know. A courtesy e-mail
would be appreciated (to [EMAIL PROTECTED]). These Linux newsgroups are
high volume and I don't want to miss valuable information.
Thanks in advance (and I hope I don't sound too clueless). I also
apologise for the length of this message but wasn't sure what was
relevant.

Yes, though really the only distro that stands out as different is
slackware. It doesn't use rpm or deb or whatever, it uses tgz. It also
has a completely different default init confinguration.

If CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is set to "N",
you have to re-make (make modules; make modules_install) them because
they carry different version codes. Obviously, 2.x.x-123 is different
from 2.x.x. ^_^

Subject: Problems moving from diald to cable
Date: Sat, 20 Mar 1999 06:12:32 GMT
I've just had a Road Runner cable modem installed, and am trying to switch my
linux firewall server from my old ISP via diald to Road Runner via cable.
I've installed the rrlogind package from http://www.vortech.net/rrlinux, and
have the cable modem connected to eth1. The DHCP client successfully
configures eth0, and I can ping anything on my own subnet, but whenever I try
to ping outside my subnet, I get "Network is unreachable." Starting diald
allows me to ping ok, but that's not the way I want to go!
If I do "/sbin/route add default dev eth1", then I can see the TX LED
flashing on the cable modem, but nothing comes back.
I seem to be in a catch-22 situation. I suspect that I can't get outside my
subnet until I've logged on to Road Runner, but the DNS'es and logon server
are all on another subnet!
Any and all suggestions gratefully accepted. Am I missing something really
obvious here?
Thanks in advance.
Jon.

I have an assortment of development/test machines and use the cvs
mechanism to update the copies on the others and the production
machines after changes are committed. It is a bit awkward but it
works and I don't want to have to add yet another step to sync
the repositories. Using the :pserver: mode would eliminate nfs,
but I'd rather just have a working nfs. By the way, does anyone
have a handy way to push out the updates to several places without
having to log in and do a manual update?

My load currently peaks in the 40-50 hits/sec range and the PII-300
that was overloaded fielding 10/sec itself (mostly cgi) now loafs
along using mod_rewrite to proxy most of the cgi's off to a pair
of other servers with the cgi programs running under mod_perl. It
loads about a T1 and a half in the busy part of the day. I'd guess
writing the logfile is the bottleneck of the process. Squid is
even better, especially if some of the content is cachable but it
needs another process to do the equivalent of mod_rewrite if you
want to distribute the requests to more than one place. Both are
pretty easy to set up if you just want a benchmark against your
other system.

Another message suggested using something like TIA or SLiRP. This is

Well...(1) you *don't* want to run Netscape remotely. You probably
don't want to run any even vaguely graphical program remotely over a
phone-line dialup connection. That having been said, (2) it should be
possible to do so, if you can get some kind of IP connection working
(a PPP dialup, or maybe SLiRP within your normal dialup session). The
Remote-X-Apps mini-HOWTO answers most of the common questions about
how this should work.

I think DNS reverse lookup shouldn't be a problem. If there is no reverse

Can you compile a program over the nfs mount, or 'cp -R' a directory
tree, then diff -r and see that it worked (writing from bsd to linux)?
I didn't have any trouble reading files and some writes seemed to work.

This is an addendum to my previous message. Apparently, when I dial in, I
am connected to something called a terminal server, with "ports", one of
which I am "stuck" into. So there is another machine between my home one
and the one in my department that I am logging on to. Don't know if this
makes things any clearer.

Subject: strange module version problem
Date: 20 Mar 1999 00:51:31 -0500
I've cleanly recompiled the kernel and modules with symbol and module
versioning enabled. When I now try to load a certain module I get the
following error message:
couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for
I'm a little clueless, since I did compile the module for specifically
the kernel I'm using.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Olaf
