of them at work and they work seemlessly with Linux.

Subject: rpc.lockd doesn't work with SMP. Help please
Date: Thu, 27 May 1999 10:12:06 +0100
Hi.
I have a problem with the NFS lock deamon (rpc.lockd).
I had setup a linux box with dual P2's but compiled the kernel only to use
one processor.
When in this configuration the rpc.lockd worked and I could lock files over
the NFS link e.g records in database files.
However when I recompiled the kernel for SMP, the rpc.lockd doesn't work. I
rceompiled rpc.lockd from the source code, but this didn't help.
Questions
==============
1) Can you do NFS file locking in an SMP environment?
2) If so what software do I require, where can I get it , and what
compile/configuration settings should I use to get it to work?
Your help would be most appreciated.

Destination Host unreachable indicates that you did not set the Default
Gateway on your masq'd machine. Either change it in your machine's network
settings, or change it manually by typing
Route add default gateway x.x.x.x
where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the machine connecting to the outside
world.

You can't realy send eof from telnet. The only eof you can send is when
you terminate the telnet connection (hotkey, close). If you do this
telnet also closes the reads which means you won't se the output from
the od command that it actually did generate when you closed the telnet
connection.
The control D character is only magic if your telnet program is talking
to a telnetd daemon.

Subject: Using telnet to test inetd services
Date: 27 May 1999 07:23:55 GMT
I'm wondering if any of the wise network gurus out there could give me a
pointer regarding testing of services launched from inetd. I want to run a
simple service from inetd which reads from a port via stdin, and writes output
back on stdout. Here's a simple example I'm using for testing:
In /etc/services, I add:
hex 10000/tcp # Hex conversion
In /etc/inetd.conf, I add:
hex stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/bin/od -x
Then I SIGHUP inetd, with: killall -HUP inetd
However, testing my new "hex" service with telnet isn't working:
% telnet localhost hex
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
hello world
^D
No response at this point. Perhaps telnet isn't up to it, so I try netcat:
% nc localhost hex
hello world
^D
Also no response. All I can think is that my CTRL-D isn't being interpreted as
an EOF, and the input buffer to /usr/bin/od isn't ever read. What I was
expecting was the same result as going:
% /usr/bin/od -x
hello world
^D
0000000 6568 6c6c 206f 6f77 6c72 0a64
0000014
Now that's more like it. Can any networking gurus out there set me straight on
what I'm doing wrong here please?
Thanks,
Graham

A program will transfer data between /dev/modem and /dev/virtualcom,

Hello,
After updating to RedHat 6.0 my old ipfwadm script for masquerading
doesn't work any longer.
The outgoing/incoming packets should be masqeraded/demasqueraded. The

193.25.16.XXX (dynamic) external. The interface to the internet is ippp0

It would be very kind of you, if you send me your masqerading-script as

That's a feature of masquerading. Something like -

MASQUERADE_AS(`theschwartz.net')
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`bbs.theschwartz.net')

Not unless ICMP masquerading is specifically enabled in the kernel. If
not, the ICMP messages will not be masqueraded, and ping and traceroute

did anyone tried to extend the available IP adresses in a winNT domain
using private IP addresses (such as 192.168.0.x) connected to the
official addresses via a linux router and ip-masquerading? (Multiple
winNT clients would appear with the same IP address). If so, how can a
winNT client become member of a winNT domain and be registered at the

An Router werden auch keine ICMP redirects geschickt.
Redirects werden NUR geschickt, wenn der Absender im selben Subnetz
sitzt wie der Router, der das Paket bekommen hat, und der Router, der
es bekommen sollte.
(Woher sollte ein IP-Router bei einem durchlaufenden Paket auch wissen,
von welchem anderen Router er es bekommen hat? Rueckgriffe auf L2/MAC-
Adresse des Absenders und Nachsehen im ARP-Cache sind bei ordentlichem
Layering nicht erlaubt...)

No, IP Masquerading specifically hides all other local machines from
the Internet. It is great from a security point of view, but in your
case it doesn't help.
As far as I know the only way to do this is to get 3 static IP address
from your ISP (for which they will probably charge you) and use the
Linux box as the gateway i.e. turn off IP masquerading.
Good luck.

If anyone could help, you might just save my life :)
Here's the problem: I just installed RH 6.0 but cannot use the Net (that's the
short version).
Now here's the details:
When I boot, the system hangs for over 4-5 minutes on sendmail and another 4-5
minutes on httpd with the following:
...
May 27 05:08:02 gate network: Bringing up interface eth0
...
May 27 05:13:50 gate sendmail: sendmail startup succeeded
...
May 27 05:16:41 gate httpd: httpd: cannot determine local host name.
May 27 05:16:41 gate httpd: Use the ServerName directive to set it manually.
May 27 05:16:41 gate httpd: httpd startup failed
...
When logged in, I can ping my host with both 127.0.0.1 and 24.x.y.z
(my given IP) but I can only ftp to the loopback, trying to ftp to
24.x.y.z gives me a "Connected to server" message but then it hangs...
Trying to ping any other host (using IP addresses because my DNS lookups
hang) fails...
Here's the "setup" I get once booted and logged in:
IP forwarding enabled.
DHCP enabled on eth0.

I tried to get my Internet access to work all night long and couldn't figure
out what I'm doing wrong...
I installed RH 5.2 a while ago on the same exact machine and it worked right
out of the box... Now I installed 6.0 and it doesn't work anymore...
I'm running NT without problems (so its certainly not hardware).
If someone could help me, I would *really* appreciate it...
Thanks!
Marc

Not specifically, but you might try something with netcat - it�s a Red Hat
RPM. Basically I guess it would be something like:cat /dev/ttyS0 | nc -l 7777
> /dev/ttyS0
or something. I guess.
Hope this helps,
Wouter.
