Subject: IP forwarding and firewall FAQ-Help!
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 03:18:58 -0800

I'm so close to getting my firewall up, but nothing so far has worked.
My situation is this: recomplied 2.0.36 kernel with IP forwarding ON, IP
masquerading ON, and IP firewalls ON. Two net cards, one hooked up to
DSL and the other to a local network (Win95 box). The firewall can ping
everything, and the Win95 box can only ping the local ethernet card
(192.168.1.1).

  The firewall FAQ says I should be able to ping the outside address of
the firewall from behind it, and I can't. The routing table and ifconfig
output looks just like the FAQ says they should. Guess I'm looking for a
concensus here. If IP forwarding is on and no ipfwadm rules are in
place, should I be able to ping the other net card? If I should be able
to and can't, what might be the likely culprit?

  All help on this is GREATLY appreciated, esp. by my two roomies who
would dig 24/7 fast net access :)

                Jim

I'm still trying to get my 3 nics to work together.  It turns out that
if I boot with just the ne2000 installed, it is seen and configured with
no problems.  But, if I add EITHER of the other 905's, the machine won't
see the ne2000.  BTW, the two 905's coexist just fine; they have
different configurations.

Any ideas?

 Chaps,

 I've got mine working just fine with PPP. You'll find that you have an IRQ
conflict if you don't run setserial or the pnptools. cat /proc/interrupts
and /proc/serial and you'll see this.

 I had to comment out the setserial line in my /etc/rc.d/rc.serial
(Slackware) file. then add a line to rc.local `setserial /dev/ttyS3 irq 7'
or something very similar, I can't quite remember. I havn't added the
spd_vhi variable or anything yet, I'm still experimenting. 

 This is one GREAT modem though :) have a look around for the package `spk'
it turns this modem into a great voicemail, speakerphone and ppp dialback
system. 

 -Cheers Max.

Subject: Yet another pppd/modem problem.....
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 10:19:40 +0000

Dear Gurus,

Installed Red Hat 5.1 recently on an old 486 'project machine' (see
spec at foot of this message if interested)

All seemed to be going swimmingly, XF86_S3 sorted, kernel rebuilt OK
for ethernet, SCSI, soundcard support etc, but when I try to set up
a PPP (with PAP) [module (?) = ppp0]  to my ISP, the modem just won't
dial out...

A few flashes from the TR LED on the modem (CS stays lit throughout),
then
Network Cnfigurator reports the interface is alive...hooray I think...

But trying to ping my ISP I get no response, and ifconfig reports only
the loopback
device running.  (dmesg output is also shown below)

So I added in debug support and here's some sample lines from my
/var/log/ppp-log (over a 1-2 second period):

pppd started for ppp0 on /dev/cua2 at 9600
pppd 2.2.3 started by root, uid 0
tcgetaddr: Input/output error(5)        ( <----- HMMMM....curious.....)
Exit

So then I tried playing with minicom, but strange things happen when it
tries to initialise
the modem...

The Init string characters are echoed to the console   v  e  r  y    s
l  o  w   l  y   indeed
(maybe one every 10-20 secs) getting progressively slower until nothing
appears to
happening at all and I usually end up killing the process...

Can anyone shed any light or point me in the direction of some
enlightened soul
before I tear any more hair out and admit defeat (2 weeks or
investigation with little
prior Linux experience)

Many thanks in advance,
Karl Soar

I don't know your experience with hardware so I'll assume the worst.

It's usually easiest to use the DOS based setup software that comes with the
board
to set them up and make sure they have no conflicts.   There can be no i/o
address
overlap and each board must have it's own interrupt level.  You may need to
disable
a serial port so you can use one of those interrupts.  Take a look a
/proc/interrupts
and /proc/ioports to see what your system thinks is currently being used.
On most
systems, io addresses  0x280, 0x300, 0x320, with interrupt of 5, 10, 11
should be open.


You may need to make /etc/lilo.conf look similar to the following:

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36-7
        label=linux
        root=/dev/hda2
        append= "ether=10,300,eth0  ether=11,280,eth1  ether=5,320,eth2"
        read-only
other=/dev/hda1
        label=dos
        table=/dev/hda


Hope this helps.

I've also been experiencing problems with the kernel saying that it doesn't
have ppp support when starting pppd. Even when I've compiled PPP into the
kernel? This definately appears to be kernel module related, but I'm not
using ppp as a loadable module?

Subject: help w/ppp dial out
Date: 24 Mar 1999 13:14:26 GMT

I have a machine (486dx2-80mhz), 16 mg RAM, small hard drive.  Running Red
hat 5.2 ONLY.  I have a Viking External set up on COM2 and mouse on serial
COM1.  The OS has been running fine since first install (yea).  I had two
modems before my Viking installed and neither worked.  The viking dials out
and seems to be working great.  Here is my problem(s):

During boot, my modem dials out.  Which I guess is ok, but last night it
kept on doing it over and over again! Could that be because when my ISP
answers it is expecting something that i don't have yet in my computer
(correct PPP setting) etc.

When I type minicom at the shell it tells me that it can't find modem and it
will use defaults.  Then I see a box that reads "installing modem".  When
minicom is up, I see an initialization string as follows:

AT s7=45 s0-0 l1 v1 x4 &c1 e1 q0

Then i type atdt ISP phone number, and IT dials out fine!!!

My question:

WHAT IS MY NEXT STEP.  I HAVE ALL OF THE INFORMATION FROM MY ISP, BUT WHAT
DO I DO NEXT?  I want to ultimately use Netscape in x windows to browse the
internet, as well as Lynx from bash.

Can i get it to where when i bring up lynx or netscape, the modem will
automatically dial out and get me connected?

thanks in advance for your help!

Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 08:50:32 GMT


I've just installed the new Apache 1.3.4 and I included the proxy module.
Here's the line from httpd.conf:

<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
 ProxyPass /mirror/foo/ http://foo.com/ 
<IfModule>

This casues http://www.bar.com/mirror/foo/whatever.html to return 
http://www.foo.com/whatever.html to your Netscape or Lynx or...

No reason you couldn't put a port number in the URL for http://foo.com:666/

Now, you tuck this directive inside a VirtualHost directive in httpd.conf, like 
this so your domain name works:

<VirtualHost xxx.yyy.zzz.75>
        ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html
        ServerName www.myotherdnsaddress.com
        ErrorLog /home/httpd/logs/error
        CustomLog /homehttpd/logs/access common
        <IfModule mod_proxy.c>
                ProxyPass / http://192.168.*.?:666/
        </IfModule>
</VirtualHost>


The only catch is that all web traffic (logging) on www.myotherdnsaddress.com 
server will appear to be coming from mydynsaddress.com, as the latter is doing 
web proxy to fetch the page off the 666 web server.

Subject: Plain vanilla routing
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 13:14:31 +0100

Hi all:

I have a SuSE Linux 6.0 installed, made a new kernel and use
a previously running configuration. Everything looks fine but
I can't make that box route. I have two NICs and I can reach
both networks from the Linux box.
I should mention that there was no routing with the originally installed
kernel either.

My /etc/route.conf looks like this:

141.13.6.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.254.0           eth0
141.13.2.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.254.0           eth1
default       141.13.2.24

If I try to ping a machine on 141.13.2.0 from within
141.13.6.0 all I get is a 100% packet loss. No errors reported.

Any ideas?

Look into password encryption - either turn it on in smb.conf or off
in your Win 98 registry.

Can you be more specific about the troubleshooter site?  There doesn't appear to be any
computer-related info at that site.
