I don't know what type of card you have but if you do ifconfig -a at a
terminal screen,
you should see the information in the nic. If all that info is correct (as
supplied by your ISP)
then you should try a ping to your DNS or your gateway(closer). The numbers
are supplied
by your ISP. If you can ping them, you are on the net.

Subject: Linux and Cisco 2610 router w/HDLC
Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 21:03:39 -0500
I'm working on installing a linux based network at my son's elementary
school. Our ISP has supplied a Cisco 2610 router for the T1 line. The
connection between the ISP NOC and our side of the T1 is in place and
the ISP has setup the router to use HDLC.
I can ping a domain name (ie. ping yahoo.com returns the ip address and
sequential pings)...However, I can not browse via lynx or NS for that
matter. Telnet does not work either. Is using HDLC for the WAN
protocol a problem with Linux? From the router to my test linux box is
just a straight 10BaseT ethernet connection. This ISP claims that HDLC
is not the problem...something in the Linux setup wrong (though if I can
ping out to a domain name on the net, I at least know TCP/IP and DNS is
working). I can even ping the linux test box from another independent
dial-up connection. I'm at a loss right now on solutions.
The ISP tech support won't help me because it's a hi-cap line and
unfortunately, the school does not have the money budgeted for extra ISP
consulting services. I'm not very experienced with Cisco/T1 technology,
just Linux and ISDN so any help you guys can provide would be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

There are only three things that have to be correct:
1. Winbox netmask
2. Winbox default route
3. Thorns proxyarp entry

>Default gateway: a.b.65.102 <-- shouldn't this be a.b.65.12?
Subnet Mask should be 255.255.254.0 i.e
netmask 11111111 11111111 11111110 00000000
a.b.65.102 11111111 11111111 01000001 01100110
a.b.64.1 11111111 11111111 01000000 00000001
a.b.64.2 11111111 11111111 01000000 00000010
a.b.64.3 11111111 11111111 01000000 00000011
This will place a.b.64.0 and a.b.65.0 on the same subnet as the Winbox.
That is the strictest mask. A mask of 255.255.240.0 may also be suitable in
your network.
>Default gateway: a.b.65.102 <-- shouldn't this be a.b.65.12?
No.
Default gateway should be a.b.64.1 This the default on thorn. You can
add the default to Winbox by the following steps:
" route delete 0.0.0.0"
Note: Winbox will use only the first default 0.0.0.0 it finds in the route
table.
Type route print and route delete until there are no more 0.0.0.0 entries.
Then insert the default as the router I.P. address:
"route add a.b.64.1 mask 255.255.254.0 <your ppp I.P address>
Run winipcfg to see that it agrees.
Alternatively, and simpler, is to set DUN to "use default gateway on remote
host"
because the default gateway is correct on thorn below.

One other thing needed on thorn is a permanent published proxyarp arp table
entry.
Type arp -a on thorn: You need to see a line that has your remote ppp I.P
address and the Hardware address of thorns Ethernet Network Network adapter.
You can acheive this by using the proxyarp command in the ppp options or
command line.
Note: On redhat 5.2 this did not seem to work so a script ip-up.local was
used to insert the proxyarp entry and ip-down.local used to remove it.
/etc/ppp/ip-up.local
#!/bin/sh
# ip-up.local
# add published proxy arp entry
exec /sbin/arp -s $5 -D eth0 pub
/etc/ppp/ip-down.local
#!/bin/sh
# ip-down.local
# remove the proxy arp entry for the remote host
exec /sbin/arp -v -i eth0 -d $5 pub
Good Luck - It's great when it works!

Subject: Routed problem --- sub-net routing in /etc/gateways
Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 10:08:42 +0800
Hi,
My ISP gives me a block of IP addresses to use. I have to divide them
into sub-nets and set up routing to 192.168.1.64/255.255.255.248 through
gateway 192.168.1.72 (a PPP connection to a router). When I put following
entry in /etc/gateways:
net 192.168.1.64 gateway 192.168.1.72 metric 2 active
routed then adds entry to routing-table:
Destination Gateway Mask
192.168.1.64 192.168.1.72 255.255.255.255
It is a host instead of net. It seems the remote router is not supplying
the correct netmask or I have to manually specify it somewhere. Does anyone
know how to solve this? Thanks.

I also agree with the reply but one more thing.... is the MB bios set for PCI

Set the MB bios to auto, it will detect the card and set the irq for you on

Subject: Diald won't talk to modem
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 02:57:59 GMT
I have been unsuccessfully trying to get diald working on my Caldera 1.2
setup. I have read howtos, messed with conf files, tried various options,
read manuals, and nothing seems to make it work.
Here is what happens. I first got ppp to work, so I know I have a
functional chat-script. When I use that script for diald, I read in the
log that it is sending commands to the modem and never receives a response.
Eventually, it times out, waits a bit, and tries again with the same
result. It is like the modem isn't there.
I used the basic diald.conf example from the manual for dynamic ppp, used
the same modem commands from my ppp-options file, and used the same
chat-script from my ppp connection. I've tried combinations of using an
empty options file to keeping the file intact. I'm stuck.
Anyone care to attempt to help me? I will post any configuration files if
they would help.
TIA!

The demand dialing part did not appear until version 2.3.0 of
pppd. Part of the ppp code needs to be patched into the kernel.
There is a script in the pppd source code that does this.
I have upgraded my pppd to version 2.3.7 I believe with a 2.0.36
kernel on a Slackware system. Even though the demand dialing
part is available, I have just stuck with diald.

The de4x5... is NOT the correct driver for that chipset. Tulip is.
To help get the right driver going try putting this in your modules.coonf file.
alias ethx tulip io=0x6400 irq=x
the io is whatever the card is really at. Worked for me. :0

Subject: Cannot set up firewall/forwarding, please help
Date: 29 May 1999 01:42:11 GMT
I'm a newbie to firewalls, but I can't figure this one out.
Running RedHat 6.0 with a 2.2.9 kernel trying to set up a firewall between
the networks 144.92.92.0 and 192.168.1.0. All I'm trying to do right now is get
forwarding to work; I'll deal with restricting later. However, I can't even get
forwarding to work.
I believe I have everything set up: the two network cards, the gateway set
correctly for the outside world on the firewall, and the firewall set up as my
gateway on my internal machine. However, if I try to telnet anywhere other than
192.168.1.* from the internal machine, it hangs..... IP forwarding, firewalling,
etc, has all been turned on in the kernel, and IPV4 forwarding is on.
Replies by email would be greatly appreciated.
On the firewall, here is my routing table:
# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.1 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth1
144.92.92.61 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0
144.92.92.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 144.92.92.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
On the firewall, here is my ipchains setup:
# ipchains -L
Chain input (policy ACCEPT):
target prot opt source destination ports
ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a
Chain forward (policy ACCEPT):
target prot opt source destination ports
ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a
Chain output (policy ACCEPT):
target prot opt source destination ports
ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a
Finally, on my test, internal machine, here is the routing table:
# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 1 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 6 lo
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 1 eth0
