Subject: Re: cable modem and pnp ethernet card
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1999 05:14:22 GMT
First, and obviously, are you sure about the io and irq values? And in the
example you give, you're missing a "0" (zero) that should be there. It
should read, "io=0x0230" according to my knowledge of the literature, (if
230 is the correct value). I don't know if this would have an effect or not.
Next, PNPTOOLS works great, but PnP is volatile and if you intend to assign
other cards later for a local network, you'll probably run into problems.
A problem with ifconfig is - you could run an "ifconfig" that would show a
valid "ethx", but you'd never actually get the card to work if the values
were "wrong". Meaning, you could "modprobe" an incorrect value, not recieve
an error message, and never know it under certain circumstances.
Also, beware that in some cases, ifconfig will report what seems to be a
"bad" base address. For instance, if I manually set up a 3Com card I have to
use io=0x0240, ifconfig reports 0x0250, which is absolutely correct. It's in
the way ifconfig was designed.
FIX:
It seems that dhcpcd is not finding DHCP services on the wire:
You might try getting the epro disks from the Intel site, and making the
card non-PnP. Contrary to popular belief, the card(s) can be set up to work
in Windows 9x AND Linux in a non-PnP state, (in a dual or multi boot
system).
Then assuming you set the card up in ISA mode (as opposed to PnP) and used
the values (230 and 10), and assuming this is the first network interface
(network card), change to the /sbin directory and run these command lines:
modprobe eepro io=0x0230,irq=10
dhcpcd -h CC1011962-A eth0
Wait a few, and run:
ifconfig eth0
If:
your @Home provider has DHCP services running,
and your cable modem is attached correctly,
and your network card "works",
this will configure the device aliased as eth0 ---- meaning your first
network card will be assigned an IP address at very least. Some other things
are assigned my DHCP, but they're probably another story at this point.
NOTE:
If you're going to have sound or modem or anything else running later, avoid
using irq and base addresses that they'll need. For instance, 230 may be
overlapped by a soundblaster or compatible which uses 220 - I don't know for
sure. This would mean that once you're up and running with @Home, then later
on you install a sound module using soundblaster defaults, (which most do),
your network interface configuration would probably fail.
I have a paper I've written to manually/automatically set up a cable modem.
My example situation is as follows:
OS is redhat linux 5.2
cable modem attached to @Home network
based in Baltimore (optional)
which uses DHCP services (some providers do not use DHCP)
If your system meets that criteria or if you feel you could make changes
where necessary and you're still having problems, I can e-mail you the paper
if you'd like me to. Send a request to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . The paper also
explains connecting a LAN to the Linux box and using basic IP masquerading
to share the cable connection with nodes on the LAN.

sounds like the ISP is using a PAP or CHAP authentication,,,or they
could be using an NT server for authentication,,I am not sure how to set
up the dip script as I am using wvdial,,but there should be a how-to
regarding chap or pap :)

We used to pull a similar trick at a site I worked at with our Cisco routers
and Linux boxes. The Linux boxes were accessable via TCP/IP LAN, but had the
serial ports connected to the console ports of the Cisco routers. Once logged
into the Linux box via ssh or telnet, we would use minicom and access the Cisco
via the serial ports.

Yeah, but if he can't log in as root, he may not be able to enter
'single' mode... (It could attempt to run the root shell and fail
immediately.)
In this rare circumstance, he could try a flag at the LILO prompt
like:
LILO> linux init=/bin/bash
or
LILO> linux init=/bin/tcsh
That should -- and I emphasize *SHOULD* -- get him into linux in an
extremely stripped down mode. He may still need to remount '/' in rw
mode...
But, as a last-ditch effort...

Subject: Ip masquerading on SuSE6.0
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1999 05:53:02 GMT
Hey all,
I have successfully set up IP forwarding and masquerading on several RH
boxes, I have since switched to SuSE6.0 and I am trying to set up my box
to share my modem with my internal network.
SuSE box:
ppp0> dynamic IP address
eth0> 192.168.1.1 Netmask 255.255.255.0 (all Netmasks are same)
Stargate:
IP 192.168.1.2
Default GW is set to 192.168.1.1
Hades:
eth0> 192.168.1.3
Default GW set to 192.168.1.1
I have enabled IP forwarding via yast (as well as rebuildin kernel to
incluse support for firewalling according to the how-to)and I set my
ipfwadm rules (still kernel 2.0.36) as follows
ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
ipfwadm -A -l
Everything on my internal network functions correctly,,I can ping all
boxes from everyone,,and I can mount my NFS shares via my SuSE box (my
main workstation) and I can smbmount all NT shares that are on stargate
I cannot however ping the modem's ip address from anyone but the
localhost (internet on the box iteslf works fine), nor can I access the
internet from my RH box or my NT box,,
I reread the how-to and tried the following
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
rebooted,,nothing
then
tried some different ipfwadm rules as follows
ipfwadm -F -p deny
ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
also tried
ipfwadm -F -p deny
ipfwadm -F -a masquerade -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
nothing works,,when booting I used to get a message about disabeling
ipforwarding,,after enableing in yast I do not get that message
anymore,,,so I was assuming that it was enabled
anyone know a SuSE specific How-to or know what I am forgetting to do???
My THanks in advance!
Ps, Please reply to email as well as NG :)

These instructions are based on win95, but win98 does have a similar item....

You may need to install a DNS server on the linux box. An easier item would be

Date: Sun, 21 Mar 1999 22:35:49 -0700
I am so close with my USWest dsl setup on Redhat 5.2 kernel 2.2.2
I can read and write to newsgroups and mail in Netscape only because I entered
the IP numbers for news group server and mail server. It would not take domain
names.
I can ping and ftp using using IP numbers. I can use dnsquery from the command
prompt to look up IP numbers.
In Netscape I can go to URLs if I use IP numbers but if I use domain names it
complains about not having DNS server.
ifconfig shows:

I feel that there is some (hopefully) small item I am over looking in my setup.
Any suggestions would be appreciated and I want to thank all who have helped
me get this far.

I had this problem and it turned out I did not have a running loopback
device.
Check this by running /sbin/ifconfig:

edit your /etc/resolv.conf and add the following line

send a SIGHUP to the inetd and all should be fine :)

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
IPX is running. ifconfig indicates that it is working ok. I have succesfully
connected to my existing Novell client, and mounted drives from that. No
problems at all.
Slist shows my existing server.
When I run nwserv, it starts up fine, gives no indication of problems, but
slist (run from the linux server) does not show it, and no other Win95 or
WinNT system can see the mars server.
I have visited the web site, but it doesn't seem to have anything that

Subject: PPP script redials? and automation?
Date: 22 Mar 1999 06:32:26 GMT
I've failed miserably in installing and configuring diald.
I was wondering.. is there a way i can obtain or setup scripts that will
listen for when my ppp connection drops and then will re-execute the
ppp-on chat script?
I would like it to autoredial so it appears i have a fulltime connection...
and it also needs to coincide with my dynamic dns updater.. which needs to
be ran after connection everytime to update the dns tables
Any help with how this could be done would be appreciated
Thanks
