Hello!

As far as pop3 goes I would recommend downloading and compiling qualcomm's
pop3 serv from http://www.qualcomm.com called popper.
It works great!

As far as routing, read howtos on net3 also ip forwarding.

Good luck

Have you set your pap secrets file as per manual. It looks like your ISP
is wanting a pap login. You may need to take out both login name
and password out of your script to start pppd and let pap do the
work.

Date: 23 May 1999 09:32:28 +0100

Somebody asked the other day about Ethernet cards but I'm afraid I've
lost the message.  A word of warning about Kingston KNE100TX cards. 
I've been using these for some time and they were great under Linux. 
However, the latest pair I've received have had one of those nasty
hidden upgrades, and it seems they no longer work at either 10 or 100
Mbit.

My working cards identify themselves as:

   DEC DC21140 (Rev 34)

and the new non-functional ones are:

   DEC DC21141 (Rev 65)

If anyone's got any pointers on how to get these going I'd be very
grateful, but in the meantime I would avoid Kingston's Ethernet cards.

single 8-port hub.

You can do that (that's what I'm doing with the Cisco 675 that USWest
gave me).  I use my little 486 box as a gateway, and it is linked to
the ADSL router via ethernet and also to the hub.

Another option (if you have a Cisco 675 which is capable of using its
internal NAT software, i.e. not in "bridging mode") is to use the ADSL
router itself as a gateway.  But I don't know your specific situation.

>My question is just on procedure.  How do i do this?

If you want to use one box as a gateway, you would use Linux and IP
Masquerading (which is a specialized NAT implementation specific to
Linux) to translate packets going in/out of your local LAN.

sorry for mistake. i _did_ do ifconfig eth0:0 x.x.x.x, somehow
carelessly wrote here double. but still - even suggested ifconfig -a
does not show but one eth0 address. and - they do work... i have set up
10 virtual hosts with apache and all works perfectly - except those IP
aliases showing... since i have had no problems with actually using them
i am not very worried but still slightly puzzled.

when i do ifconfig eth0:0 then it shows the alias correctly.

and - i do not have /proc/net/aliases at all...
surely there must be something i have done... not quite right?

Net-3-howto:

  For administrative reasons some time early in the development of the
  IP protocol some arbitrary groups of addresses were formed into
  networks and these networks were grouped into what are called classes.
  These classes provide a number of standard size networks that could be
  allocated. The ranges allocated are:

               ----------------------------------------------------------
               | Network | Netmask       | Network Addresses            |
               | Class   |               |                              |
               ----------------------------------------------------------
               |    A    | 255.0.0.0     | 0.0.0.0    - 127.255.255.255 |
               |    B    | 255.255.0.0   | 128.0.0.0  - 191.255.255.255 |
               |    C    | 255.255.255.0 | 192.0.0.0  - 223.255.255.255 |
               |Multicast| 240.0.0.0     | 224.0.0.0  - 239.255.255.255 |
               ----------------------------------------------------------


_If_ that is strictly followed the netmask should be 255.0.0.0 on an
'IPADDR="24.4.162.173"'

I have installed the ipchains patch 2.0.34 (to my kernel 2.0.35).
The firewalling seems to work OK, but I have a strange problem when
attempt to login via the xdm window:
 After the password is entered, the window blinks only and the login
window comes again.
The /var/log/xdm.log tells that
 "X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)".

Any suggestion how to correct the problem?

Seems like the X Window problem, but appeared first after installation of the

        Judging from 'man 5 hosts_access', the answer is no.  You need
to use an IP/netmask pair to specify a range of addresses.  (Somebody
please correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC globbing only applies in shells.)

Yes, with some specialized functions.  For instance my cable modem will
only talk to 4 devices on the local network.

If the cable modem is really functioning as a bridge, then local traffic
will stay local and neighborhood traffic will stay on the cable.  On my
cable modem, I only see ethernet packets meant for the machines in my
home (including broadcast packets).  I'm not sure if all packets from
inside my house get passed out to the cable or not...

I've been messing around a bit with bridging in Linux and found that if
the Linux bridge announces itself to the local network that the cable
modem stops talking to the local network.  Also, also the cable modem
makes these same "spanning tree protocal" announcements.

Ofcourse, different cable companies will have different configurations
for their modems, so YMMV.

    Yeah, try cthugha as a server on one of them and as a client on
    the other. Looks great :-)

6. Resource sharing, run programs from one display, some on computer
   one, others on computer two.

7. Use one Computer as an X-terminal. As root, try 
   X -once -query <other-computer> 
   Make sure X is not running on the Computer where you type this, and
   have a graphical login on the other.

8. Experiment with "failover". F.e. if you use one computer as an
   webserver (or whatever), the other can check if its still
   up and running, if it fails, it takes over the service.


9. Of course you can run servers on each of them. Useful things are:
   newsserver (inn or leafnode), scanserver (with sane), smtp and pop
   server, ...

10. Build a cluster

There are lots of other things you can do, depending on you knowledge
and interest.

MRTG can monitor bandwidth utilization.  Comes with RH on contrib CD,
or http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html

Big Brother also might be helpful in monitoring a connection.  I might
suggest
you have it monitor the ISP's main gateway(s) (ping monitor that is).

You don't need the '*',  just have it end in '.'
For example:
ALL: 192.168.1.
will allow all nodes on 192.168.1.0 to access this host, for all tcp wrapped
daemons.

What is leafnode?   Is it an application?
You may want to look at man pages.

This is probably the IP for the internet side interface of the cable modem.
What is the IP for the subscriber side of the cable modem?   Usually
something like 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1

Both of your interfaces are on the same subnet.   You need to have them on
separate segments, like
192.168.0.0 on one and 192.168.1.0 on the other.

Also 192.168.x.x  addresses are not internet routable, so using one of them
for your 'outside' interface won't work unless the cable modem is run a NAT
(similar to IP masq).   If cable modem is not running a NAT, you'll need to
get a valid internet address for the 'outside' interface on your system,
from your ISP.
