The default Linux IP Masq setup only supports "passive" FTP sessions by
default, and you must load a special module in order to allow active
FTP sessions (or else you can configure your various FTP client(s) to
use passive FTP instead -- NFTP supports this, for example).

The example configuration I posted earlier shows how to do it; just add
something like this:

  /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp.o

in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local or whatever.

Try IP-Masquerading or ipchains:

On a 2.0 kernel try

ipfwadm -F -p deny
ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.10.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0     

or if you are running a 2.2 kernel:

ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 192.168.10.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0

You will also have to specify that the linux-box is the default
gateway in the Windows setup. And of course, your kernel must be
compiled with support for this stuff. (Standard RH kernels usually
support masquerading out of the box.)

Some information on the problem that might be helpful..

ifconfig returns only the entry for lo, not eth0

i tried 'ifconfig eth0 io_addr=2c0 irq=10' after reading man ifconfig to get
the command args right (i guess), which says twice 'operation is not
supported by device', and twice 'eth0: unknown interface'

ping 170.x.x.x (netfinity nameserver) pings a few times until i press ctrl+c
saying 'error: Network unreachable',100% packet loss

i searched in config files but maybe im not looking in the right place.
please help

Younes:

I don't know if this will be useful to you, and I am just getting the
hang of this myself (w/SuSE 6.0), so please excuse and correct any
misstatements, but I recently set up a dual-homed machine with an SMC
80xx and a 3Com 3c509, and had some problem getting the SMC card to be
recognized as well when I compiled the kernel with built-in support for
SMC-Ultra.  When I recompiled with all modules, lsmod showed that
SMC-ultra was loading a module called 8390.  BTW, when I set up the
hardware I had to supply io=0x280 and irq=3 arguments on the load line.

Subject: Ip Port Forwading... Can anyone help?
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 1999 10:34:05 +0800

Hail Linux Guru's...

I am having a little problem with Ip Port forwarding under Redhat 5.2
(2.0.36)
First let me explain what I am trying to do... I want to be able to set
up an internet gateway for a local network, to access the internet...
now this local network has 12 machines now I want to be able to access
any of these machines from remote... I have software to access them but
in order to decide which machine to access I have decided to use Ports
to determine which machine I am accessing...
                    ----------------
Internet ----|  Linux Gateway | --- Port 5901 --------| Nt Machine 1 |
                    ----------------    |-  Port 5902 --------| NT
Machine 2|
                                                |-  Port 5903 --------|
NT Machine 3|
                                            ETC

Now I have Ip masquarading functioning perfectly... as every machine can
access the internet, as if they were a dial up.

I have also installed the patch to permit Ip AUTO FW, IP Port FW etc...
and they are compiled and installed...

and i can assign the address into IPPORTFW / IPAUTOFW to redirect, but
nothing happens... It wont allow me to connect... it just says server
not found... Now the software is listening on the correct ports... and I
know the redirection is correct... but nothing is being forwarded...

Is it something I could be missing in my routing table... ??

My route settings are as follows:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination          Gateway         Genmask             Flags   MSS
Window  irtt Iface
203.27.235.240  0.0.0.0           255.255.255.255 UH      576
0              0  ppp0
192.168.0.0        0.0.0.0           255.255.0.0         U        1500
0              0 eth0
127.0.0.0            0.0.0.0           255.0.0.0             U
3584 0              0 lo
0.0.0.0           203.27.235.240  0.0.0.0                 UG      576
0               0 ppp0

203.27.235.240 is my dial up connection

the command i type for ipportfw ing is
ipportfw -A -t 203.27.235.240/5900 -R 192.168.0.1/5900 (for first
machine)
ipportfw -A -t 203.27.235.240/5901 -R 192.168.0.2/5900 (for second
machine)

etc
etc

I hope this is enough information
Thankyou for your time...

Hi

I posted this with knews, and, as you can see, it duly sends a from-header and
my own-invented nospam-replyto-line.

I have one problem with it, and that is that it does not allow me to cancel my
postings. It says that it cannot cancel an article that is not mine, whenever I
try. 

I used to post with Netscape, and there cancelling never was a problem (NS is
OK, it just takes too long to start up).
Knews uses my network name in the From-line and I manually delete the machine
name out of this. But cancelling is impossible, whether I try with, or without
machine name.
 
Has anybody an idea what I have done wrong?

Thanks

   I have the same card and had a hell of a time with it.  First, you should
disable PnP (the documentation with the card should explain it easily).  Next,
try reconfiguring the card with the included software.  My original problem
was the IRQ.  Linux seemed to like IRQ 11 better than 10 for me.  That may work
as well.  Oh, and be sure to disable PnP in the BIOS since you probably don't
need it.

Clifford,

Thanks for the suggestion.   It's getting a bit further in negotiation, but
now I seem to be getting a loop in cbcp looking for a particular response.
For example:
--begin--
. 
. 
Apr 18 14:16:39 ares pppd[1050]: rcvd [CHAP Success id=0x99 ""]
Apr 18 14:16:39 ares pppd[1050]: cbcp_open

Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: length: 7
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: user callback allowed
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: length: 2
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: length: 1
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: user callback allowed
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: length: 1

Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: length: -244
Apr 18 14:16:40 ares pppd[1050]: user admin defined allowed
. 
. 
--end--

The length value keeps decrementing until about -83000, then segfaults.

Anyway,  I haven't  looked much at the code to see what it expects.  I'll
probably do that later tonight.

Thanks again!

Are you using the correct plip device?  On my machine IRQ 7 and io 0x378
the appropriate device is plip1 under RH 5.2.  I'v now switched to
kernel 2.2.5, and the correct device is plip0.  Anyway, you might check
the device.  Correct irq's and ioports are listed in the plip mini howto
and possibly in the networking howtot.

Good luck,


Dick

Then you need to use the tip someone else gave you already. Sendmail will
default to your hostname+domainname for outgoing mail unless you specify
a fully-qualified domain name to be used in outgoing mail. Find the
sendmail.cf lines

=======
# my official domain name
# ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
#Dj$w.Foo.COM

Dj
=======
[DASHES ARE MINE] and change the last line:

=======
# my official domain name
# ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
#Dj$w.Foo.COM

Djearthlink.net
=======

Then all mail that starts out with a From: line with no domain in it
(e.g. From: freddie) will be processed differently. Right now, the defaults
make it change to "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"; after the change,
it will change to "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]".

Better?

the only problem is that it confused people.  now, rather than just always
printing out '10M ethernet', it now just says 'ethernet'.
