The D-Link 530TX, IIRC, does *NOT* use a Tulip chipset; it uses a VIA
Rhine chipset. Choose that driver instead and try again.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......
10baseT will run at least 150m through cat5 cable, 100m through cat3.
100baseTX (not what was asked) will only run 100m though cat5.
10base5 will run 500m through thick ethernet cable.
Fiber will get you to about 2000m without a repeater.

I mean that we can't say that we should cnsider the Server the main thing in
the net, the main thing is the client and its needs. If our Server fulfills
our client needs - it's good, if not - no.

Subject: Radius server timeout
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 1999 07:04:09 GMT
Hi. I'm not sure if this is the most appropiate forum to ask this but it's
the closest thing I can find. I'm trying to use pam (rhat 5.2) to
authenticate against a radius server running on NT. The module appears to
be set up correctly but no data is getting sent to the radius server, this
is what I have in the logs...
Mar 29 13:05:15 home in.ftpd[7429]: connect from 203.38.46.141
Mar 29 13:05:16 home pam_lradius[7429]: reading settings from
'/etc/pam.d/leemah/pam_lradius.conf'
Mar 29 13:05:16 home pam_lradius[7429]: find server entry
our.server.net.au:1812 5 2
Mar 29 13:05:16 home pam_lradius[7429]: sent packet (51 bytes) to
our.server.net.au:1812 server
Mar 29 13:05:16 home pam_lradius[7429]: ICPM unreachable message received
I know the radius servers functioning because a dial-in server running
portslave is talking to it. I'm pretty sure 1812 is the right port, I did a
udp portscan and that's the one that came up. I can also successfully ping
the NT machine from this one. I don't know much about the NT radius server
but the NT administrator ran it in a special debug mode that apparently
shows *any* data it recieves and it showed nothing in the middle of an
attempted connection. Which leads me to believe that the linux box is just
not sending the packets for some reason. Strange because, as said, I can
ping ok.
Any ideas? There are no firewall rules on the NT box and AFAIK the radius
server has been configured to accept requests from this linux box. Even it
it wasn't I would expect to see a rejected notification rather than
timeouts.
Thanks,
--Steve

Hi,
The external IP of the firewall is 202.64.xx.yy.
The internal IP of the firewall is 10.0.0.1.
I have set up my internal network with IPs 10.0.0.*.
I have my web and ftp servers in 10.0.0.192 with the aid of ipportfw which
forward all incoming web and ftp request to 10.0.0.192.
Yes. It works if the connection is made from the internet to my web site
and from internal network to the web sites in internet.
i.e. People from the internet can browse my website and
and people within the internal network can browse the internet.
HOWEVER, the internal network can browse the "internal web site"!!!
Why!!!!! Please help.

Linux is as mature as NT, and it's greater stability has been demonstrated.
Linux needs to be rebooted only for hardware or kernel upgrades, not for
network changes or software installation. It doesn't have the vulnerability
to viruses that NT seems to have. NT also requires at least a workstation
class machine whereas an old 386 or 486 is fine for a Linux gateway or
firewall. Linux is also easy to administer remotely. For more info see:

Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1999 23:18:18 -0800
Hi,
I'm an avid Linux user. I swear by it. I have several machines all with
Redhat 5.2
Been using Linux exclusively for 3 years so I'm not a newbie
Up until today, all was roses.
I am connectiong from 3 other Linux machines to the internet through one
machine with a ppp connection and ip masquerading. Kernel 2.2.2 with
moderately secure firewall using ipchains. I use diald for the
connecting.
This setup has worked wonderfully for some time until this afternoon.
Suddenly, whenever the machine dials in, it just cant connect. I have
made no changes in anything in the last few days.
Fortunately, I've never had any problems connecting, but unfortunately,
this also means I have never run into this problem before.
I do know that my ISP has been making changes this weekend, but I can
connect with no problem from my wifes windows machine. (It hurt me to
say that as much as it hurts me when I see others post it)
pppd says the recieve serial connection is not 8 bits clean and that bit
7 is set to 0
here's the exact output
Mar 28 22:41:39 chunks diald[357]: Running connect (pid = 451).
Mar 28 22:42:12 chunks diald[357]: Running pppd (pid = 452).

Mar 28 22:42:42 chunks pppd[452]: Connection terminated.
Mar 28 22:42:42 chunks pppd[452]: Receive serial link is not 8-bit
clean:
Mar 28 22:42:42 chunks pppd[452]: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0
Mar 28 22:42:42 chunks pppd[452]: Hangup (SIGHUP)
Mar 28 22:42:42 chunks pppd[452]: Exit.
I hate to say it but I'm running windows right now to get on line.
May god have mercy on my soul.
Perhaps someone has seen a similar problem before?
As I stated in the subject line, I'm using windows.
Windows is a bite in my ass. (fortunately, I only need it to get this
plea for help out on to the group)
Can anyone rescue me from the clutches of this retarded OS?
Thanks
Chris

Hmm, but I've set the hostname, in whatever file that was to be done
again, and it's also being reported at startup and visible via dmesg !
So why should that be the problem ? Is he trying to resolve the hostname
elsewhere, since the network card is working then ? And why is syslogd
also slowed down ?
And now ... what the heck is FQD ? And how do I tell sendmail not to
resolve my hostname ... or whatever else should I do to solve my problem
?
Thanks in advance ... Frederik Heber

Yes! Took me about two months of fooling around to get it right too.
Well all that time wasn't spent on PPP, but just getting to know how
things are supposed to work in general.<g>
I used the page that Mark posted, along with the PPP-howto.
BTW, I did have some problems with the script on the WURD page. I'm
not sure exactly what the problem was, but I solved it by manually
configuring the resolv.conf file, and getting rid of the parts of the
script that writes it.
Now, if only I could get rid of this problem Netscape has with hanging
sometimes. Then there's that problem with not being able to startx
without rebooting after it ran once...
Some fun! :)

Yes,
When I set to 255.255.0.0, both Linux boxes can talk to each other but it mess up
my existing network, that's I don't want to see.
And now I add a network card in the first Linux box and set an IP to
192.168.18.254, netmask 255.255.255.0, and it seems to be fine now. (trying hard
to learn how to use the ROUTED)

I ignore all about Samba stuff. Are you sure you need autofs to mount
them ? Can't you just add a few lines for them in your /etc/fstab
file?
Anyway I work with autofs (very easy to configure) with a 2.2.4 kernel
(autofs support is valid since 2.0.3x kernels but for these it is jus
experimental).
My /etc/auto.master file :
/mnt /etc/auto.removable --timeout 3
It indicates autofs that it has to listen every action on the /mnt
directory, that the file containing the mount descriptio is in
/etc/auto.removable, and that it can automatically unmount the fs
after 3 second of inactivity (it allows you to change the cdrom or
your floppy).
And my /etc/auto.removable file:
cdrom -fstype=iso9660,ro :/dev/cdrom
fd0 -fstype=auto :/dev/fd0
It indicates to mount the local /dev/cdrom when someone accesse the
/mnt/cdrom directory (the other option are the same than mount's).
Something important : RH is configured for amd by default. To
configure autofs you have to change all occurences of the K08autofs
for S72autofs, and S72amd to K08amd in the /etc/rc.d/rc{3,4,5}.d
directories.

Subject: 2.2 kernel locked by autofw???
Date: 29 Mar 1999 08:19:25 GMT
Hi there. I recently upgraded to kernel 2.2.3 (with patches patch-2.2.3-ac4
and ip_masq-v0.25-for_2.2.3) relatively smoothly, and everything appeared
to be working. Until today, when i tried to run Starcraft from the windows
box which is masqueraded through the linux machine. The linux box locked up
completely. I've never seen that before, except one time when i did
something abysmally stupid upgrading to glibc2. :)
Now i'm using 2.0.36 again with no problems.
Here's the code i use to set up the autofw Starcraft's battle.net stuff
needs in order to run, under 2.2:
/usr/sbin/ipmasqadm autofw -A -r tcp 6112 6112 -h 192.168.1.255
/usr/sbin/ipmasqadm autofw -A -r udp 6112 6112 -h 192.168.1.255
again, under 2.0.36 the equivalent ipautofw stuff works fine; under 2.2.3-ac4
with ipmasqadm the above locks the machine solid (can't telnet in, no disk
activity, magic sysreq doesn't work).
here are some version numbers:
ipchains-1.3.8
ipmasqadm-0.4.2
dhcpcd-1.3.17-pl2
net-tools-1.51
and the full rc script that gets run when the dhcpcd connexion is up:

any suggestions? if you need any further info, please let me know. also,
is there somewhere else besides these newsgroups i might want to ask this?
please email me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if possible, thanks.
PS - any pointers to where i can find out just which net-pf-X is which
protocol? i get a lot more of those annoying messages now (i'd aliased
some off before) booting under 2.0 now that i've recompiled the net-tools...

: On the linux box make sure ipfwadm is installed, and add the following
: line to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file:
: /sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.0.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0

Before I get banished to the 'man' pages, I wanted to ask a question (simple
to most of you, I'm sure).
I have one Linux machine (running RedHat 5.2) and a Windows 98 machine. The
Win98 machine has most of the bells and whistles, but I would really like to
get more acquainted (and more comfortable) with the Linux machine (use UNIX
at work). I was able to set up a peer-to-peer network with both machines
running Win9X with very little sweat, but trying to network the Linux and
Win98 machines has proven quite the challenge.
I have been able to get the following to happen:
* I can dial into the Win98 machine (from the Linux box), connect and
actually ping the "Win machine". I can use Netscape to browse the folders
I've set up to share on the Win98 machine (running Personal Web Server). I
have even transferred a file or two using Navigator.
The above mentioned is surely not the 'preferred' setup, and after reading
the "HowTo" on Samba, I'm convinced this is quite the undertaking. I will be
connecting via TCP/IP, and would like someone to point me in the direction
of a step-by-step setup for being able to connect to the Linux box from the
Win98 machine. When I say "step-by-step", I mean it literally.
Is there such a document out there? If so, I would be extremely grateful for
the assistance.
