Subject: Newbie question: adding loopback at startup?
Date: 26 May 1999 17:10:30 +0100
Sorry to ask what I'm sure is a dumb question, but what do I have to
do to persuade my laptop (Red Hat 5.2, kernel 2.0.36) to add the
loopback interface at boot time? The machine has no ethernet
connection, but dialout PPP connections work fine.
I've read the NET-3 Howto, and I've set up my /etc/hosts file
appropriately. I can set up the interface by hand using ifconfig and
route, whereupon `ping localhost' works fine (without doing this the
network is `unreachable'). However, the hints in NET-3 were
insufficient for me to figure out which file to edit to add the
command at boot time.
I also tried the network configuration tool in Red Hat's
control-panel, and while the loopback entry is there it claims to be
inactive and doesn't become active when I click on `activate'.
Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong? Thanks in advance.

OK. I need to go run Linux and retreive them/it. I have many because I
tried ppp-on, ppp-go, ezppp, and others I've forgotten about. All of
them hangup. If it's just a matter of my typing the correct format for
the USERID/PASSWORD combination, I've literally exhausted all the
potential format combinations! The right one is the plain "USERID" and
"PASSWORD" in all caps. Nothing worked.
So, by tonight I ought post my chat script(s).
Fwiw, I do successfully connect to my other service provider via ezppp
only. I don't know why but only ezppp has made a successful connection.

"I managed to find help from ctvm" is what I hurriedly mistyped. Sorry.
'Cable TV Montogomery' is what ctvm leads you to: http://www.ctvm.com/
The support pages for MAIL&NEWS setup show the _many_ permutations of
USERID combinations/format supported by differing browsers. No Linux
based working sample script is provided. I Called customer support at my
ISP and, as usual, there was no one familiar with Linux. Here are their
instructions http://www.ex-pressnet.com/mailandnews.html help/advice.

I suppose that is so. Let's assume that the pppd connection can be setup
independent of the Cablemodemðernet setup.

You have a large bunch of attempts to connect to your machine, to find
the mountd daemon. It has had a huge hole in it which allowed root
comprimises.
You have at least set up your portmap daemon so as to reject requests
from unauthorised hosts, which is good-- makes it hard for them to know
which port to try to connect to to get at mountd to test it for holes.

This is almost certainly (?) a cron job that you are running. check
crontab, and the files in the /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,monthly,hourly}
to see if there is something there running a cron job.Look to see who
user 99 actually is.
By the way, if the other machines are not mounting filesystems FROM this
firewall machine, switch off the nfsd and mountd. They are not needed
unless someone else needs to mount filesystems from this machine. (It
can still mount other machine's filesystems.)
(ie, change the S to K in /etc/rc.d/rc?.d for the nfs service in
Redhat.)

MAKE SURE that the rexec is commented out. In fact it is highly
unlikely that you in fact want any of the services in inetd.conf.
(The only other useful one is rlogin)

Again probably a cron job that is running. Note the identical time.

Subject: Re: IP Masquerade/Routing
Date: Wed, 26 May 1999 19:08:57 +0100
Curt,
What I want to do is this :
Set-up my client's hosts as
192.168.200.1
192.168.200.2 etc
These same hosts have addresses
128.100.200.1
128.100.200.2 etc. within my client's private network.
Now I set-up a route to 192.168.200.0 which will cause a PPP connection to be
opened to my client, where a dynamic IP address is negotiated.
Anything sent to the real 128.100.0.0 would by-pass this route and get sent-out
via the default route to the internet. See - I want to make sure there can
NEVER be a conflict.
Packets sent to 192.168.200.x should then be changed on the way out (after the
route has been determined) so the destination address in the packet is
128.100.200.x, and the router at the other end should then be able to deliver
them. This mapping would be handled by a lookup table maintained via a program
similar to ipfwadm.
I know this isn't what's meant by IP masquerading. I think this is a different
problem, and one not covered by anything I have read. All the FAQs & HOWTOs
seem to assume you want to access a single private network or a single private
network and the Internet.
It isn't just a matter of routing to an "illegal" address. What if 2 clients
have both chosen to use the same private network number, say 192.168.100.0 -
which is even the same one as I've chosen? I would then need to fool the kernel
into handling 3 different networks all using the same perfectly valid network
number.
Do you know if it's worth pursuing this myself (ie learning more about the
kernel and changing it), or is there some reason why this definitely cannot
work?
thanks,

Date: Wed, 26 May 1999 17:43:12 GMT
I've tried the suggestions that everyone's made, but I still can't make
it work. For some reason I can connect from MY NT Workstation, but I
can't connect from any other clients. Let me be a little more specific,
when I try to open a share from a 98 client, it asks for a password.
When I try to open a share from an NT client, it asks for a username and
password. All clients seem to be able to browse to the server. I've
used smbpasswd -j ntdom to add the linux server to the domain. I
currently have
security=server
password server=ipaddress in dotted decimal notation
add user script=/usr/sbin/adduser -d home/samba -g samba %u
I've also tried using the netbios name of the server in the password
server option, and I've used the security=domain. I also have encrypted
passwords turned on. Thanks,
Greg

Thats exactly what my exports file says :

/filesystem2 abc1.xyz.edu(rw) abc2.xyz.edu (rw) ....
The problem is only one client machine (out of 8) can access the remote
filesystem... besides even the one that can access the filesystem cannot
access the _other_ filesystem which is also exported..
These machines are (to the best of my knowledge) identically setup...
with the required differences ofcourse...
but still ... "permission denied"
Any clues?
Thanx

PS the one that _can_ access a remote filesystem is not even the 1st
on the list...

Subject: How do I connect DOS 6.2 PC to Linux?
Date: Wed, 26 May 1999 17:12:45 GMT
I received a throwaway IBM Model 80 with DOS 6.2. I installed an Etherlink
III card, but now don't know how to connect it to my Linux server. The Model
80 has all sorts of LANManager files on it, including a TCP sys file,
PROTMAN, etc., but I don't know how to configure it to work.
The Model 80 used to be connected to a Token Ring Netware LAN, and I suppose
I could set up my Linux server for Netware, but my other networked computer
uses TCP/IP. Can I mix and match the two together?
I'm stuck with DOS 6.2 because this PC has an old 9-track tape drive (for
reading IBM mainframe reel to reel tapes) that I need to use occasionally.
