In that case, DDNS should work just fine for you (that's what it's "supposed"
to be used for anyway -- internal DNS or limited use external DNS).

FTP only needs two-way access for "Passive" mode, which is generally a bad
feature to be using anyway (a lot of FTP servers and firewall configurations
-- from the server side -- have trouble with passive FTP).

The only other common applications that I know of that require the server to
open a socket connection to the client are games (which is a good enough
reason, if you ask me :).

Hello world!

Is there a possibility to share a modem connected to a linux server, so
that i.e. W9x users can access it via tcp/ip?

Thank you in advance!

Subject: Linux, DHCP, and cable modems...

Help

I'm having some problems getting dhcp to work with a cable modem. 
The particulars are:  Redhat Linux ver 5.1 (2.0.34), Mediaone 
cable with a cable modem called CyberSurfer Wave.  

I originally started out at Linux kernel 2.0.34; and, in the process
of troubleshooting this ugliness upgraded to kernel 2.0.36.  

I have a 3c509b that seems to work using the 3c509 device driver; 
I've been able to configure an IP address into it and ping myself. 

DHCP seems to be causing some problems, however.  When booting, DHCP
times out even though I have a link light on the cable modem from 
the 10baseT card in my PC.  While the link light is on, the command 
"ifconfig eth0" looks like:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:10:4B:03:04:D0
          inet addr:0.0.0.0  Bcast:255.255.255.255  Mask:0.0.0.0
          UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          TX packets:24 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          Interrupt:10 Base address:0x300 

After a set amount of time, the link light will go out, and 
the output from ifconfig looks like:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:10:4B:03:04:D0
          inet addr:0.0.0.0  P-t-P:0.0.0.0  Mask:0.0.0.0
          BROADCAST DEBUG LOOPBACK POINTOPOINT NOTRAILERS NOARP PROMISC 
ALLMULTI SLAVE MASTER MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          TX packets:19 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          Interrupt:10 Base address:0x300 

I know the card and (a variant of) dhcp works because I can get
on the net with no problems from win95; Linux, though, is causing
me some headaches.

Any hints on where I should look next?

Thanks for your time and help.

create the following script:

LOGFILE="(whatever the path to your logfile is)"
cp $LOGFILE $LOGFILE.yesterday
cat /dev/null > $LOGFILE

Set it to run at midnight, by typing 'crontab -e' and adding the following

That should do it.

Subject: Direct connect two linux computers: something's wrong
Date: Fri, 26 Mar 1999 03:15:15 +0100

Hi there,

I've got a problem with a two Ethernet card setup.

Currently, I have computer "A" equipped with an ISDN card (ippp0) for
establishing a dial-up connection to the Internet. It's also got an
Ethernet card (eth0) to connect to a LAN. It has squid and the TIS
Firewall Toolkit installed and everything is working just hunky-dory.

I've set up a second computer now (let's call it "B"), which I want to
eventually take over computer A's firewall and ISDN Internet connection
and connected it to computer "A" via a direct connection.

Since all this is fairly new to me, I wanted to start by doing one thing
at a time and first see if I could get a connection between "A" and "B".

So, they are both connected via an ethernet cable (with two T-adapters
and two terminators on each end). "ifconfig" recognizes both installed
Ethernet cards just fine, I can successfully ping the localhost on each
machine as well as ping each machine's own IP number, however pinging
the other machine yields no result (100% packet loss).

I suspect that I'm doing something fundamentally wrong with the routing
configuration, but I just can't figure it out.

What does the routing table entry have to look like to get connected to
the other computer respectively ?

Currently I have "A"'s "route.conf" file read:

========== Begin route.conf on "A" ==============
# default               192.168.0.1
<static IP-no>          0.0.0.0                 255.255.255.255        
ippp0
192.168.1.3             0.0.0.0                 255.255.255.255         eth1
192.168.1.0             0.0.0.0                 255.255.255.0          
eth0
default                 <static IP-no>
========== End route.conf on "A" ==============

"B"'s "route.conf" file reads:

========== Begin route.conf on "B" ==============
192.168.1.4             0.0.0.0                 255.255.255.255         eth0
default                 192.168.1.4
========== End route.conf on "B" ==============

"A"'s eth1 IP-address is 192.168.1.4 and "B"'s eth0 IP-address is
192.168.1.3.

I'm using Linux 2.0.36 (SuSE 6.0 distr.).

What am I doing wrong ?

This went away when I turned off innd, which was trying to poll a
default news server at uu.net

To make sure, just

grep pppd /var/log/messages | tail -40

and see what turns up, esp. right after a phantom phone call.

You need proxying or similar. IP forwarding will be trying to forward your
private-origin traffic onto the internet, where it will be dropped by the
first router it comes to.

Alternatively, invert your configuration, and run the linux box in
masquerading mode (IP-Masq HOWTO).

That doesn't sound like Sympatico!! Here in Ontario you are limited to the 1
Meg modem. But I do like the added bandwidth over my old 56K line. At the
moment I just have my Win95 machine on it. I have another machine in the
process of being built at the office ( when I get time!) and as soon as I
do, I'll dro the network cards into it and away I go.

Be thankful. That'll stop them from filling up the bandwidth as fast. My

Better to ask and possibly look stupid than continue in ignorance.  I don't

That is the main purpose of the (D)omain (N)ame (S)ystem.

More information can be found in RFC1033, RFC1034, and RFC1035.  These RFC's
(or [R]equest [F]or [C]omments) can be found at http://www.faqs.org.

Mostly.  You also need to notify the Internic what the _two_ DNS servers for
your domain are.  Only one is required to run DNS, but the Internic requires
you to register a secondary DNS server (which never actually has to be in
working order after the initial registration).

> If it is, then it would sure be easy for someone to "piss in the routing

Addresses are handled seperately from names.  There is actually nothing
preventing somebody from "stealing" your IP address, but it's unlikely that
any traffic will get routed to it.  Advertising a route is a very public
thing, and anyone trying to steal an address in this matter would be ignored
if unsuccessful and caught very quickly if successful.  In other words, don't
worry about that part.

Theft of domain names is prevented by the Internic registration I mentioned
above.  A properly configured DNS server will check with the Internic to find
out what the "Authoritative" server for a given domain is.  So long as that's
your server, you'll be fine.

> I need to tell the Internet that my domain has a new address, and to stop
> using the old one.

What you mean is that your domain's primary DNS server has a new address --
the Internic has absolutely no idea what the IP address of any of your
servers are. Your DNS server(s) can be in a completely different domain, in a
completely different IP block from the rest of your machines, if you wanted. 
The sole purpose of Internic registration is to identify what DNS server is
"Authoritative" for a given domain.  Whatever IP addresses the DNS server
spits out in response to name queries at that point is entirely up to whoever
is running the machine.

There's a simple OnLine form at the Internic that will allow you to change
your primary and secondary DNS entries.  The internic can be found at
http://www.internic.net/

I know the Linux community thinks poorly of Winmodems and many people
believe that winmodems shouldn't be supported on Linux even if the
manufacturers released the information necessary to write Linux
drivers. I read an article that suggested that software modems may be
the wave of the future however. The author based this assertion on the
increasing power of CPUs in single user machines and there may be some
sense in his position. The processing power to "modem" at 56K is
relatively constant. As CPU continue to increase it will take a
smaller and smaller percentage of the CPU's power to do the "modem"
work. Isn't there a point where it becomes silly to use a dedicated
modem processor to do work that the CPU can do without adding
noticeable load? Might we see a day when you can't buy a hardware
modem?

I doubt that this is xdm.
Usually such disk activity is caused by sync and flush to disk activity.
Look in "/etc/inittab" and change the update line to your preference:

ud::once:/sbin/update -s xxx -f xxx

Read "man update" to set xxx.
Another thing you can do is set the disk parameters using "hdparms".
i.e you can make the drive spin down after x secs.

Try an iptrace to confirm the print job is making it over to the Linux server:

iptrace -a -b -p 515 -s aixIP  -d LinuxIP  /tmp/trace
Send the two jobs
kill the iptrace
ipreport /tmp/trace > /tmp/report
The /tmp/report will show you the IP traffic exchanged to/from port 515 and

Subject: Problems with Telnet
Date: Thu, 25 Mar 1999 20:58:14 -0800

I have so far successfully go the eth0 interface set up and I am able to
ping both
NT and linux machines. I also can telnet from linux over to the NT box. But
when it
comes to telneting into the Linux box I  have a problem. When I try to
Telnet into
my Linux box I get this

Red Hat Linux Release 5.2 (Apollo)
Kernel 2.0.36 on an i486

Then after 60 seconds the I lost connection. No username prompt comes up..
The only place I can think of where the problem is, is with the hosts.allow
and hosts.deny files.. I have hosts.allow set up as follows

ALL:169.254.50.151

This is the IP address for my nt box.. The hosts.deny file is empty..

I also tried deleteing the hosts.allow file per a request of somebody at
work and the problem still presists.


I hope I gave enough information. I would appreciate any help and
suggestions.

Thanks,
Dave
