If I try to connect my isp, and find it 5 times busy, I can't do any
other attempt to connect for 1 hour.
Is it possible to set delay to a lower time, i.e. 5 minutes? How?

Thanks a lot,

The IPChains how-to says that port forwarding is supported by the 2.2 kernel
but says nothing about how to activate it. Thanks in advance for any
suggestions.

Hello,

I am running a linux machine (redhat 5.2) and
I was wondering if there is a command line program
like /bin/mail that I can plug into shell scripts
to send mail via an the smtp server at my isp. 
I didn't see this functionality in either the
mail or the pine man page. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I don't know.  But you should consider whether you would want to or not.
It's done for a reason because the data in the caches might be old or
incorrect.  I'd imagine that the default time is a sensible one.  Maybe
you could just limit the logging, then you wouldn't know about it. 8-)

You use ipmasqadm available at http://www.rpmfind.net.

Let me know if you are able to get game zone games to work with this. I haven't
had any luck.

Is there *never* a login prompt, or does it just take a long time to
turn up?  If there is never a prompt, it might be that you have
/etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow conspiring to stop your windows box
logging in.   Add the windows' box IP to hosts allow like -

in.telnetd : win.box.dotted.ip



If there is a *slow* login prompt (2 - 3 mins probably) then you need
reverse resolution.  Put the IP and name of the windows box into
/etc/hosts on the Linux box -

win.box.dotted.ip  winboxname

I shouldn't think that that would be a problem unless Redhat 6 is set up
very differently to 5.2 by default.  You may not be able to log in
directly as root, but that's another story..

 mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
should work because mount works out for itself what fs there is on your
diskette. It may be that your kernel is not configured for vfat, in which case
you should recompile it with support for vfat, or , in the RH case, probably
choose a different kernel with support for vfat.

Subject: Help: Opportunistic Locks
Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 19:06:05 -0500

Hello,

I've been doing some reading on opportunistic locks and I think I
understand them.  First, I will attempt to explain my understanding of
them, then I'll give you my question:

Opportunistic locks, from what I understand, allow client machines to
"aggresively" cache files locally.  The documentation I've read says
that sometimes a client even caches open/close file operations... in
other words, it doesn't (necessarily) even tell the server it's 
closing a file.  It just closes it, since it's got the file locked, 
w/opportunistic locking.  For the purpose of continuing my explanation, 
I'll call this client "Client Lock".

This local cacheing is permitted by the server, because whenever another
client tries to access the file, the server knows who has the file
locked (Client Lock) and it sends a message to Client Lock, saying
"Hey!  Give me your updates, someone else needs that file!"  

It is in this manner that the server "breaks" the lock.

Now, according to this explanation... if I were to open a file on a
Microsoft SMB client and make changes to the file, saving it
periodically, and if I were to open the same file on a Linux machine,
which accesses the file via NFS, and edit it.... then the SMB client
wouldn't necessarily see the changes that I made to the file via my NFS
client.  In fact, from what I understand, since the server's lock
information for the file wouldn't change ('cause NFS doesn't manipulate
the opportunistic locks) the SMB client WOULD NOT see the changes that
are made to the file via NFS.  

However, when I actually try to test this hypothesis, I get a
surprise... the smb client sees every change that I make to a file via
an NFS client.  What gives?  Could I have opportunistic locks turned
off?  I've looked in our smb.conf file and there is not any "oplocks =
off" or anything like that.  And, the documentation says that it is
turned on by default.  Also -- the documentation says that "kernel
oplocks" is not yet implemented for Linux (which would allow NFS to
"break" opportunistic locks).

Could someone lend me a hand?  We want all of our users to maintain only
1 directory structure, and we want to prevent data corruption (but we
can't guarantee that our users will never be accessing their files via
NFS and SMB).  If necessary, we may have to "smbmount" the file system
from Linux... but, I'd rather hold off on that, if "kernel oplocks" is
going to be implemented soon....

Thanks,

Bob

Thanks for the continued help:

More developments have arisen. I have been checking the /var/log/ppp

I can remember the old S.u.S.e 5.2 times... There was directly
remote login for root possible! (I think it was the entry pty* in
/etc/securetty - but I'm not sure...)

What the problem is:
*root access should permitted only for a specific host
*mail clients cannot login as a user and perform su, cause of
 pop3

I think there must be a way...

My home office system has Linux Mandrake (RedHat +) with kernel 2.2.8 as
the dial in ppp gateway with a local lan connected Win95 system on the
back end.  I run Lotus notes 4.6.1 on the Win95 system connecting to my
employers Lotus Notes serveres.  This has been working for my day-to-day
office work environment for the past several months.

My IP forwarding statements are in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.  See below:

======== clip ===========
# pasted in for IP Masq
echo "ip_masq 192.168.1.1"
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq*
 
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
 
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0
 
# end of paste
 
========== end of clip ==========

Works for me.  Hope it helps you.

I have a Linksys EPSX3 print server with 3 parallel ports.  It works
acceptable in win98, but in Linux I have problems.  I was able to finally
get it set up using the samba LanManager setup in printtool.  Now, it does
print, but if it is more than a page or two, it will either not print those
pages at all, print the pages in the wrong order (say you have 5 pages, it
prints pages 2 and 3 only), or sometimes you just get a mess printed on the
page.  Does anyone know how to fix this or if I might need a switch instead
of a hub or if I need to reduce the speed of my network from 100X to 10X.  I
only have 2 PCs and a printserver connected to my hub using the correct
network cabling for 100X.

        Thanks,

Here's what I'd try.  Wait till the configuration times out and
nothing more is happening.  Then do these things (all as root, of
course).

ifconfig
    should only show your loopback device
route -n
    should only show your loopback device's route (1 line)

Now run dhcpcd manually:
    /sbin/dhcpcd -d

When this completes, run "ifconfig" again and see what you get.
Also do "ls -al /etc/dhcpc" and see the dates and times of those
files - at least the ones starting with dhcp should be new
(created pretty soon after you ran dhcpcd).

If dhcpcd doesnt come back for a long time (and you've checked the usual
suspects - like wiring!) or if it comes back but ifconfig doesnt show eth0 up
and configured or "ls -al /etc/dhcpc" doesnt show any (new) files, then look
at /var/log/messages - that's what the "-d" option is for.

If this works, then all you really have to do is dink around with the scripts
to make this happen.  Not a big problem, if you understand what's going on.

Main thing to remember there: if cardmgr seems to hang as soon as you insert
the eth card, change the line that calls dhcpcd to look like this:
    dhcpcd >/dev/console 2>&1
That's needed in order for cardmgr to realise that dhcpcd has cut loose.

Good luck.

(PS - I've got my 3c574 to work alright, but not *reliably*.  Often, it will
stop responding, and stop dead.  It got so bad I'm using an older card now).

(PPS - Just for one week I was at a place with a 100bT network, and it ran the
whole week no problems.  So maybe the problem is only on the 10bT one...?  I
cant be sure - no 100bT where I am now!  So if you have 100bT I'd appreciate
some feedback)

untested, but try something like:
    ipfwadm -I -a deny -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D <your ppp0 IP address>/32 23 -W ppp0

You see, when you telnet to your gateway machine from outside, you
are not exercising the -F part of your rules, and thats the only
one for which you have -p deny set.

You are using the -I part when you do that, and that very likely
has a default accept.

You DONT want to change that to -p deny ;-)  It has to be rule
based.

Anyway - I'm not entirely sure I gave you the "complete" answer -
just a pointer in th right direction.  Read the HOW-TO, especially
the huge example.

A better way to control this is tcp_wrappers anyway - you may want
to consider that too.

If you have kernel 2.0.36 or later,

 In your /etc/fstab under /dev/fd0 add:

/dev/fd0        /mnt/vfat            vfat        user,noauto,exec 0 0

make the dir  /mnt/vfat

(add the user,noauto,exec to floppy and cdrom to allow all users to use devices).

then just insert WinDOS disk and do:

mount /mnt/vfat

Hi All,

Yes, I am now using IPCHAINS and IPMASQADM PORTFW.

My commands look exactly as they should as per all the readme's and ipmasq
howto.

It seems that packets are received at the external interface (which is being
forwarded to the internal network), but the replies are not going back to
the source.

Have I blocked off something ?

The only masquerading and port forwarding commands are :
ipchains -I forward -p tcp -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQ
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 203.11.21.8 80 -R 192.168.0.5 80

I have enabled debugging by doing
echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_masq_debug

but I don't get anything in syslog.

Above is a request from the peer for you to use SPAP authentication.
The ConfRej below is fatal since the peer apparently isn't configured

SPAP is Shiva PAP which is "patented" and so unavailable to pppd.  I think

I've seen the same problem on a Packard Bell with a 3Com 905b.  Linux ran
fine in spite of it.  Since the mobo chip set had a work around written for
it (saw that in the kernel configurator) I figured it was a PCI problem on
the mobo and not the NIC.  Don't know if that helps you though.

Subject: PPP through portmaster using securid
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 01:45:36 GMT

I need a way to feed a securid token to the chat program when it logs
in. Either a chat-like program that can pop up an X window to get the
token or a new way to start ppp. I have been editing the chat script
and calling ifup, but by the time it dials up and log in, the token is 
sometimes expired.

Anyone know of such a beast.

TIA
