Read the ppp HOWTO and Network Administrators Guide. But your bandwidth
will be limited by your ppp connection, won't it?

I believe I have a version 4+, and forget whether there's a yellow doodad.
Kernel is 2.0.34.
Anyhow, everything worked fine once I got:
tulip.c:v0.90q 2/23/99
from cesdis.gsfc.nasa,gov.
Look at the first few lines of your tulip.c to see.

Thanks to Hugh Saunders I can now do my logons to a thousand machines
as root and keep warm...
Now I have to consider the full ramifications of not having a
/etc/securetty and the users logging on.
Hugh,
Is there more info on this like how to simply add the
pseudo-terminals that is needed somewhere? Sort of adding 'ttypa' as
before?
Thanks to all who contributed.
As long as you can live with the big security hole, here is your
answer:
Delete (or rename) /etc/securetty
Works for me (I'm on Redhat 6.0 too).
Alternatively, you could telnet onto the box as a normal user and 'su'
to
root.
Hugh Saunders.

Date: Thu, 20 May 1999 19:40:02 +0200
Hello,
I'm a network admin on a public high school, and I'm faced with this
problem:
CENTRAL LINUX GATEWAY
| | | | |
| | | | ---> eth0: Internet link 1: leased line, public fixed IP
addr (ISP1)
| | | ------> eth1: Internet link 2: cable-modem, dhcp configured
(ISP2)
| | ---------> eth2: DMZ
| ------------> eth3: Internal subnet 1, private address range,
masqueraded
---------------> eth4: Internal subnet 1, private address range,
masqueraded
What we want to reach is explained simply:
All incoming traffic ( to the gateway and DMZ ) has to come in via
internet link 1 (Leased Line).
All outgoing traffic except SMTP traffic has to go via internet link 2
(Cable-Modem).
All outgoing SMTP traffic has to be routed via the Leased Line.
Outgoing traffic from our private subnets is masqueraded before is
leaves via eth1 and is blocked to go via eth0.
Outgoing SMTP traffic is generated via a mail exchanger, located in the
DMS (with public DNS records)
THE TOOLS:
ipchains to control masquerading and blocking of IP traffic
static routing
THE PROBLEM:
How can I tell the gateway there are two interfaces to reach the
internet ?
Do a have to use a routing deamon i.s.o. static routing ?
Thanks in advance,
Lieven.

I am trying to set up this card on a p120 with an AZZA MB running OpenLinux.
The bios reports :
Initializing Plug and Play Cards....
Card-02 NE2000 Plug & Play Ethernet Card
Then running setup from the included disk with a DOS boot I get:
Fatal Error
The LAN card's Plug and Play I/O range check function has some problems.

Damn, you do this for fun? First ya gotta network the two computers
together, once you have them connected you have two options:
1. Have the winnt box share the raid and use smbmount on the linux box
to map the drive, this is kinda hackish in my opinion but I've never
tried it yet.
2. Put a http/ftp server on the winnt box and have the linux box
redirect all requests made to it to the nt box. This is what I do on
my network, I have a router and a linux box behind it. Any connection
coming into the router is forwarded to the linux box which has the web
server. So the user thinks the web/ftp server is on the box with the
cable modem but it is not, it's on another machine.
There may be other options but these come to me off the top of my
head.
Hope this helps

Amy-
First, you should see http://www.linuxtr.net/ for supported cards and
other info. I believe the current state of affairs is:
* kernel 2.2.9 incorporates a number of patches, including a bad slab magic
fix
* ISA TR is supported
* PCI TR is nascent
I'm presently using RH 5.2 on a P200 with ISA Auto 16/4 TR, and RH 6.0 on
a ThinkPad with the Auto 16/4 PCMCIA card.
Good luck.

No, it uses the via-rhine driver.
Try getting the latest driver, 1.02,
http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/test/via-rhine.c
There was a bug in the previous versions of via-rhine that would make
the
driver think that there is an IO address conflict, even though there
wasn't. This has been fixed in version 1.02.
Don't try to feed any io/irq to the driver.
The PnP stuff in the bios, isn't that mainly for ISA cards?

Here are my goals for a box of mine running RH 5.2...
goal 1 get the network working-- this I have accomplished I can ping the one
box from the other and it works fine.
Goal 2-- Set up Samba on the linux box So I can transfer files back and
forth between Linux and NT. The Samba Instructions I have found are very
vague. I can set up a win 95/98/nt/nt Server on any protocol blind, but you
don't have to be a network genius to do that. What I need is to be able to
click and drag files from nt to linux(so I don't have to switch back and
forth between the NT and linux on the linux box).
Goal 3 -- be able to telnet in to this Linux setup, so I don't have to
switch computers all the time, or a method of logging into it, either as
root or a high level account(which doesn't bother me)
I have enough linux knowledge to be dangerous but not enough to be good at
it. I generally I stick to programming, networking came along for the ride.
Thanks in advance

I have installed RH6.0 with NIS authentication. My Solaris NIS+ server
is running in NIS compatibility mode. I can mount NFS file system from
the server onto the linux NIS client. I can ypcat the passwd file but I
cna't login as a user. When I try to login the screen flashes twice
then retrun to the login screen, it may be having a problem mounting the

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the info. Got the RPM and have it installed now, but I have
another stupid newbie question. How do I compile it?
I can do the kernel no problem, but I've never had to compile an individual
module before. I think I've got all the required support compiled into the
kernel, but what else might I need?

Although I have RedHat 5.1 (kernel 2.0.36), this sounds like a "Port
Forwarding" situation. I don't use it myself, but the various IPMASQ
HOW-TOs did have some information on this. You can set it up so that it
simply forwards the specified ports to a different machine - exactly
what you want!
The firewall script that I use has the following:
#
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# IPPORTFW Re-directions..
#
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#
# Port forwarding allows people from the outside to directly connect to
a machine
# on the MASQed side. An example of this is the need for people to
directly
# contact an FTP server on the MASQed network from the Internet.
# NOTE: Do *NOT* use ports greater than 1023 for redirection ports.
# I used to use ports 2312 for TELNET redirection but I figured out
# that with ports > 1023, all my IPFWADM rulesets were being
# ignored and all Internet hosts could hit my re-directed server!
# Why? Due to the default behavior of TCP/IP and MASQing, you
# have to allow all ports > 1023 through the firewall.
# NOTE: Un-#ed out these statements if you want to enable IPPORTFW
# echo "Enabling IPPORTFW Redirection on the external LAN.. line 229"
#/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -C
#/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -t$extip/2112 -R $portfwip/21
#/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -t$extip/2312 -R $portfwip/23
#/usr/local/sbin/ipportfw -A -t$extip/8012 -R $portfwip/80
#
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# END IPPORTFW Re-directions..

Sorry if this is not 100% on-topic, but can anyone recommend a (preferably
free) Telnet client to run on a Windows 98 client which has facilities to
alter keymappings? I currently use SCO Vision's VT420, which is expensive.
I have downloaded a demo of CRT, which looks OK, but again will be expensive
to install on multiple workstations.
Thanks for any pointers ...

Hi all,
unfortunately I couldn't find any related stuff via DejaNews. What I
would really like to do is setting up a fast fileserver that is
equipped with several Ethernet cards. Does anyone know how I could
open the network bottleneck by distributing the load over more than
one network interface?
Our switch has a feature called `trunking', where some ports can be
bundled to a single virtual port but as far as I understood this is
intended only for switch-to-switch communication.
Regards,
Marcus

Subject: access winnt from redhat 5.2 box
Date: 2 Jun 1999 14:25:47 GMT
Hi folks:
My computer is partitioned by hda1( winnt) hda2 ( redhat5.2 linux).
I can access data from floppy ( /mnt/floppy) and cdrom (/mnt/cdrom)
through adding lines on /etc/fstab or manually mount command.
But I have difficulty in accessing data on hda1 ( winnt workstaion
hpfs format)
/etc/fstab
mount <tab> -t <tab> vfat <tab> /dev/hda1 <tab> /mnt <tab>
error message at booting time
"
fat_read_super: Did not find valid FSINFO signature. Found 0x0
[MS-DOS FS Rel. 12,FAT 32,check=n,conv=b,uid=0,gid=0,umask=022]
[me=0xf8,cs=1,#f=0,fs=0,fl=128,ds=0,de=0,data=0,se=0,ts=0,ls=512,rc=0,fc=0]
Transaction block size = 512
VFS: Can't find a valid MSDOS filesystem on dev 03:01.
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
or too many mounted file systems
"
any suggestion will be appreciated.
thanks in advanced.

If possible, set up two hard drives on seperate channels. Put your swap
partition, and only your swap partition, on the faster drive and channel.

No, but install it anyway. First, you can use it, but more importaint,
you can xhoast it to another machine, and use GUI admin tools remotely.

Try and see. RedHat 6 has some new tools that have received
questionable reviews, like Pump, and the new libC. However, it has a lot
of fixes...

Shouldn't need to. But, put in as much memory as you can. This will
make the biggest difference in performance.

Does anyone know of any dynamic DNS servers for Linux? I've been

hi
your error-message:
> fat_read_super: Did not find valid FSINFO signature. Found 0x0
> [MS-DOS FS Rel. 12,FAT 32,check=n,conv=b,uid=0,gid=0,umask=022]
comes from trying to mount a ntfs-formatted drive in vfat mode. vfat is
for win95/98 with long filenames. but NT uses NTFS, the New Technology
File-System... means incompatible with everything there was before...
however, there is a ntfs-driver for linux, allowing you (till now) onyl
to read files from your ntfs-drive. take a look at:
http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~loewis/ntfs/
hope it helps & greetz
