I use an IBM Auto 16/4 token ring PCMCIA card in a ThinkPad 760E. It
works well. However, to get it to work, I had to modify a line in
config.opts regarding memory exclude range.

Can you post the result of netstat -nr ? Do you have a route to the local
net?
Also I noticed the MTU on your loopback address is 3924. This usually is
3584.
I don't know that this would cause any problem though.

Subject: Network failure during heavy traffic
Date: Tue, 4 May 1999 23:15:04 -0500
I have a Redhat 5.2 server functioning as a file/print server. In some cases
involving heavy network traffic, the node completely disappears from the
network.
If I have one Win95 machine copy files from one share to another on the
linux machine while another is doing the same, Linux disappears and the
Win95 machines report that the network device no longer exists. Linux is no
longer reachable using smb, ftp, telnet, or ping. Nor can it ping other
machines on the network. It's as if the cable simply unplugged itself. While
it's alive, I see what seems to me excessive collisions.
I've tried different hubs, different cables, even a different network card.
I've tried plugging all computers into the same hub. The machine returns to
earth when I deactivate and reactivate the interface. I have complaints from
one user that network file access is slower than with the old NT server (may
not be related, included it just in case).
Hubs are 10/100 as are NICs on machines in question. Started with a Netgear
FA310TX (including installation of the provided driver) and changed to
Realtek. I've given up on it being a hardware problem. Can anyone clue me in
on what may be configured wrong?
Thanks,
Craig

If you're using prive (non-legal) IP you have to run masquerade on the
serwer (find something like masq*-howto). The server should have also IP
forwarding turned on.
If you can get legal IP (from your university class) you have only turn ip
forwarding on on the serwer.
Don't forget to set /etc/resolv.conf on your home machine (if you don't
know how to do it check in ISP-Hook-Howto and Net-3-Howto)

Leider sind s�mtliche Interrupts wegen der TK-Anlage schon verbraten, so
da� ich keine Netzwerkkarte einsetzen kann.
Die Logfiles m�ssen von Zeit zu Zeit auf einen Linux-Rechner zur Auswertung

Help!
I have my Linux system up on my TCP/IP network. The system occasionally goes
dead, ie, it will not respond to pings or any network requests. Then
majically it comes back alive. The system is in a remote network location do
I can't get to the console. Any idea what's up with this screwy behavior.
Could it have something to do with my green motherboard shutting down network
services?
Thanks for any help.

In some cases you are better off dropping the packages instead of buffering
them during the dial process. When an aplication tries to initiate a tcp
connection a syn package will be sent to the interface and buffered. After
a timeout another identical syn is bufferd, and eventualy two or three
identical syn packages are buffered up when the ppp conection is established.
Now all these syn packages are sent end to end, and some tcp implementations
cannot handle this and treat this as an attempt to setup three tcp connection
with the obvious confusion on either side, which are only resolved if the
application closes down and starts with a fresh socket.
This may not be common, but it does happen, and the fix is to drop everything
until the ppp conection is up, and the timout code in the tcp stack will take
care of sending another syn packet.

A syntax error in your .htaccess maybe causing the 500 error. Here's a

Subject: connecting two networks w/o a router??
Date: Wed, 05 May 1999 06:13:55 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Here is the scenerio:
I am going to set a Linux box that would be connected to the Internet through
a dedicated dialup. It will have a static [class C] IP address on ppp0
interface. It will be running almost all TCP/IP services including DNS.
This box will be physically a pat of our ethernet that has class B addresses.
My question is that if I make this Linux box DNS resolv mydomain.com to
C-class then ethernet users won't be able to connect. If I make it to resolve
mydomain.com to B-class then, ofcourse, I will be a dead man. As this DNS
server has to be the primary NS for my domain.
My qyestion is that if my ethernet has B-class and Linux box has C, then can I
connect from ethernet clients to Linux box without a router? Can only adding a
couple of routes on Linux solve the problem?
[There is a solution of this that to put another DNS in between that resolves
to Linux box's ethernet address while primary DNS will keep resolving to
actual C-class. But this solution requires an additional box.]
Any clue?

Well, if you must access the machine remotely, your best bet is to use `sshd`
rather than `telnetd`. It encrypts all of the data sent over the wire, so
even if somebody is packet sniffing you'll be fine. Or you could set Linux
up to use a serial console, and then disable remote logins.

My guess would be that at least one NIC is set to half-duplex, with the others
set to full. There was a thread in here about a week or so ago about that
problem. A quick search on Dejanews in the group, using "duplex" as a search
word should bring it up.

Subject: Help with "route" command
Date: 5 May 1999 06:32:35 GMT
Hello all,
I had to rebuild my system over the weekend and I though I have all
the necessary networking files under /etc backed up but I was mistaken. I
have re-installed Linux 5.2 and I cannot get the 2 ethernet cards on this
one system to ping itself - let alone pinging other computers (I was able
to do IP masquerading before I did the rebuild). I watched the screen as
the system boots and the two network cards were found and the correct MAC
address reported by Linux. I think it has something to do with a file in
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1(?) which sets up the routing info and got blown away
when I rebuilt the system. I have tried various "route" commands to no
avail. I have included my "ifconfig -a" and "netstat -rn" output. Can
someone show me the right "route" command to use (I did a search on
www.dejanews.com and I did not find something that I could use). Thanks for
your help!.

Looks OK to me -- you are sending and receiving packets.
The receive packet had length 271 and was a multicast or broadcast address.
I'm guessing that you have a routing problem, not a driver problem.

Take a look at http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/mini/IP-Alias.html
You need to add a route to the host as well.
ifconfig eth0:0 100.0.0.1
route add -host 100.0.0.1 dev eth0:0

Why would you need PPP over ethernet, might I ask?
