FTP authenticates with NO problem.  This is a fresh install of Redhat 
v4.0 (Kernel 2.0.18).

What's the obvious thing I missed?  When loggin in as 'root' or any other 
user I get 'Login incorrect'.  However, loggin in locally is NO problem

Subject: PPP problem with 2.2 kernel
Date: Mon, 17 May 1999 13:24:37 +1200

I'm having a problem getting data rates over 1 kb/s with a PPP
link using kernels 2.2.1-2.2.9.  The modem is a 56 kb/s.
I've tried several times, running pppd 2.3.8 & 2.3.5.
When I boot to 2.0.35 it all runs fine.  I get IP masquerading,
and transfers approx 4.7-5 kbps.  But essentially the same setup
booting to 2.2.x I can't get more than about 1 kb/s.  The IP masq'ing
works fine under 2.2.x, but none of the masq'ed machines get fast transfer
rates.  Is there anyone there that can provide a pointer to where
I should look in the config/log files to try and find out what's going on?

I've asked this question several times myself, but I did read on an ipmasq
web-site the following:

This patch allows NAT-friendly games to work behind Linux IP masquerading.
This patch is available for 2.0.30+ kernels and it is already built-in to
2.2.3+ kernels.

============================================================================

6.3 Supported Client Software and Other Setup Note


** The Linux Masquerade Application list has a lot of good information
regarding applications that work through Linux IP masquerading.
Unfortunately, this services hasn't been well maintained but if you are
interesting in taking over this site, please email either
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and/or [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Generally, any application that uses standard TCP and UDP should work. If
you have any suggestion, hints, etc., please see the IP Masquerade Resource
for more details.

Works but requires TCP ports 116 and 118 and UDP port 6112 IPPORTFWed to the
game machine. See the Forwarders section for more details. Please note that
FSGS and Bnetd servers still require IPPORTFW since they haven't been
re-written to be NAT-friendly.

the last line in the example should have read:

Just add rules at the start of the input and output chains, and don't
use the `-j' flag.  A rule without -j does nothing, but when it
matches the counters (use `ipchains -L -v') will increment.

Hope that helps,
Rusty.

I just finished setting up a Netgear Ea201c ISA into an older i486 I had
laying
around. I connected it to my present machine (i686) which also has a
Netgear
card in it, nut it's a PCI version.

I did have some problems getting it to work at first, but I stuck with it
and I got it to work.
My problem was that it was configured as a pnp. I was told by someone
else  to use
the disk that came with the card, I had to boot DOS first to use this
disk.

I ran the software to re-configure it as a non pnp device, set the IRQ to
something
that was available on my i486 (irq10),  I t wrote down the io address that
was displayed
on the screen (ox300). I recompiled my kernel (2.2.8) to include the
NE2000/1000 driver.
I visited the Netgear site to grab some info on this card. It is a NE2000
compatible card.

After restart my new kernel, the driver seen the Netgear card, after a few
moments setting
up the proper files I was able to connect to my other machine with-out
further problems.

If you have any question I'll be glad to try and assist you.

Good luck.

Subject: What do I need to start with Samba?
Date: 17 May 1999 02:39:37 GMT

        I've been playing with linux for a couple of months now and I've 
decided I'm going to start figuring out the networking part of it.  I've 
just gotten Red Hat 6.0 and did a fresh install (I've set it up to use 
GNOME).  To start with, all I want to do is be able to share file with both 
my linux comp and my win98 comp.  The problem I have is I don't know where 
to start looking for information.  I'm a complete newbie at this; I've 
never recompiled my kernel, I don't know if my ethernet card works, do I 
need to have TCP/IP up and running before I can make these comps talk to 
eachother?  These are some of the issues I need addressed.  Please tell me 
where I can find the answers.  Thanks in advance.

Stephan

PS. The linux comp has win95 on it (dual boot) and under win95 the 
computers can see the shared folders on eachother without a problem. (So I 
know the cards work and the cables are connected properly)

My advice: do all your filtering in the forward rules (ie. set input
and output policies to accept).

You are probably being confused because when packets are masqueraded,
they pass the output chain with a source port 61000 to 65095.
Similarly, replies will come back in destined for this port.

Rusty.
