Hi,
I'm having trouble getting FTP PUT commands to work
with my Squid 2.2.STABLE1 (the redhat 6 rpm).
Tracing seems to suggest that squid is attempting the
PUT but never gets a return back from the ftp server.
The browser (Netscape) just sits there waiting for a return from squid.
>From strace (truss) it looks like squid isn't opening a data connection
with the ftp server.
Does anybody have any clues?
Cheers
Steve S.

Let me add that many people start pppd immediately after connect and
it does not work. A lot ISPs give you a login and password prompt
before being willing to talk PPP to you. Livingston portmasters seem to
operate this way (my ISP uses Living portmasters and they give me a login
and password prompt before being willing to talk PPP).
Connecting with your favorite terminal program to determine the prompts
is highly recommended. Be aware that some annexs also ask you for a protocol
after you have given them responses to ogin: and ssword: they like. You
probably want ypur chat script to send whatever AT commands to the modem and
type good things when it seems the oign: and ssword: prompts.

As one of these admins on in my copious spare time, and close to
another of these admins, let me explain
AFAIK ssh2 is not lacking in features or security. It fixes a very
academic security problem with the version 1 of the ssh protocol. It
seems very unlikely that the attack can be made worthwhile unless you
crack the encryption first, so nobody is seriously worried about it.
The licence is a serious snag. Commercial use was drastically
redefined to include almost everything. ssh version 1's licence says
lots of uses are not uses that require you to pay datafellows. Result?
Everyone continues to use ssh version 1. So whatever client you use to
speak to your ISPs servers it will almost certaintly be speaking
version 1 of the protocol.
This would include my ISP and LANL (the place that gave those spies access
to classifed stuff, an unsmart move).

It sure should not be using itself as teh gateway since this is for

Dumb question, but I have Linux running on two machines, both
Debian 2.0.34 using smail (sendmail). On one machine I installed
mail from the setup packages, on the other I forgot to install
mail, and installed it later. On the first machine, when I
connect to get mail from a windows machine, everything works fine.
On the second machine (the one I installed mail manually), windows
complains that it can't find the POP3 server. I can't find what it
is I'm missing to get it to be a POP3 server. Please help!

Shouldn't this be ppp0 instead of lo?
Also make sure you have IP forwarding on.

Shouldn't you have a route to the local network?
#route add -net 192.168.1.0 dev eth0
I would suggest using network configurator under X, I think you'll find it
simpler to use
than doing everything by hand.

Subject: ip_allow
Date: 18 May 1999 20:07:42 PDT
Hi:
I have a Linux box (RH5.2) running as a mail gateway and running IP
Masquerading. After placing my ISP's mail relay into the relay_allow
file and placing my internal class C (192.168) along with 127.0.0.1 into
the ip_allow my internal users can send mail out with no problem.
How go I get outside mail into the shop via the same box?
My DNS MX is pointing at the box. When I mail from an outside source, It
bounces with the proverbial '551 relay not allowed' kind of error.
I guess I'm looking for how to turn off the relay filter and allow all
mail from all sources into the gateway, Or am I to have my MX entry
point to a seconf IP and use tunneling to route it directly to my
internal sendmail hub?
What am I missing?
Thanks

please be a bit more precise here.
i take it you have 3 machines, 1 at work ( �= somewhere else) and 2
locally, is that correct so far ?
lets call those 2 local1 and 2.
so if you telnet local2 from local1 you get WHAT? service denied? no
connection?
you telnet as WHAT? ( not as root,hopefully)
can you ping local2 from local1? ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (adress) AND ping
local2 (name)?
do you use the same user to telnet work as you telnet local2 ?
maybe you look in var/log/messages and or warnings , both in local2 and
local1 - you might get a hint whats amiss here

You and the ISP couldn't neotiate IP addresses. Try the pppd option
"asyncmap a0000" and then "asyncmap 0" if that doesn't work, some PPP
implementations are broken wrt negotiating this.
The trick above will ofter work but if it doesn't add teh pppd debug option
and find the PPP negotiation log for more insight.

i used samba for a while now, and most of the time it worked ( maybe
after a few short reconfigs ).
i use it now with swat, which comes with the new ( >=2.0.x) samba.
i find the diagnosis.txt ( which lets you diagnose in some steps 1-5 or
so) is absolutely helpful and to the point.

192.168.x.y are illegal addresses ( which is why they can be used on
intranets). There is no way that anything outside your little system can
send anything to these addresses. Either your internal machines must be
assigned valid addresses (from your ISP or from Internic or whoever is
selling them these days) or you have to switch on IP Masquarading.
You als have to make sure tha t IP forwarding is switched on on your
main box. (it is off by default in Redhat 5.x)

this is reply 2, 1st one seems to have gone lost.
please be more specific to your setup.
3 machines, 2 local ( local1 and 2 ) and one remote (work)?
you can telnet work but not local2 from local1?
can you ping local2 from local1? , adress AND name?
you do NOT telnet as root?
WHAT exectly do you get in return ? ( access denied? host not found?...
or what?)
look in /var/log/messages and or warnings for more hints
