A great example of the kind of information Win95 provides; Useless. :-)
The best bet in most cases, is open the case and look at the chip. As a
shortcut, you can sometimes get better information from regedit, under hkey
local machine enum pci and checking each key. As a shortcut in this case,
if it is on the motherboard, it is probably a Tlan. Try "insmod tlan
duplex=2" and see if you can bring it up. Good luck.

Also, the Tlan chip used in most of these integrated NIC systems doesn't
always auto install. You may need an "insmod tlan duplex=2" to bring it
up.

Hi,
I would like to do a RedHat 6.0 kickstart install on my Dell with one
3C905B NIC integrated on the motherboard and a 3C900 combo NIC. The
problem is that I only have access to a coax ethernet so I have to use
the 3C900, but the install program doesn't seem to use it at all. I've
tried snooping for it with my Solaris NFS server, but it's compleately
silent. So, how do I select which NIC to use during the kickstart? And
what NIC's are recognized by the install floppy?
Regards,
/Magnus

It looks to me like you could accomplish this all with ipchains and
ipmasqadm (using the portfw module). I don't really know anything about
tisFWTK, so I can only really give you one side of the fence.
Here's how I'd set it up:
ipchains would be running on the Dell machine protecting your network. The
Compaq would be sitting on an internal (and possibly private) network. The
Dell would run ipmasqadm and would use the portfw module to forward HTTP and
FTP traffic to the Compaq. The Dell machine would run it's own MTA
(sendmail?) and accept incoming mail for the domain. It would then
(unknowingly to the outside) relay the messages internally. I don't really
see the need to have the external DNS server on the internal Compaq -- it
could easily be on the Dell. The Dell would also have to be running IP
Masquerading for the internal network to get out, and for ipmasqadm to work.

Well, I can tell you how to get DirectX 6 games to work on the MSN Game Zone

When you su to root, you can access any directory. When you su the second
time to some other user, that user does not have access the to directory you
are currently in.
RedHat 5.2 makes the /root directory only be accessible by root. If you are
in that directory and su to some other user, the su fails because of access
privileges. Before su-ing to the second user, make sure you are in a
mutually accessible directory.

Well, since you did use the word "marginally" I won't jump down your
throat. :)
A lot of people seem to think that `su` is secure, for some odd reason.
Personally, I never use it, because of how easy it is to spoof it.

All a hacker really needs to get root is a username/password pair for a
user that uses `su`. Once that normal user account is subverted, it's a
trivial matter to create a "fake" su script that spoofs the behavior of
a normal su [ask for password, print "sorry", log password to secret
location, remove all traces of self, return control to "real" su
binary]. Most people mistype passwords frequently enough that they
won't blink at one incorrect su attempt [and even if they do, at that
point it's already too late... unless they got "lucky" and really did
mistype the root password that time :)].
Of course, it's also fairly easy to find a sniffer that logs the whole
transaction [or at least the few extra packets it takes for someone to
`su` immediately after logging in, which most people do sooner or
later].
SSH is the only reasonable way to become root on a remote machine.
*Anything* else is insecure, and should not be suggested, IMHO.

Reply-To: Dean Kimberlee Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Well, I found out what my problem was, in part, at least. To test if my
firewall was forwarding the web port to my internal machine, I had been
telnetting to the firewall, and would then type "lynx <my public IP>"
which returned the "Cannot connect" error.
Today, I tried the same thing
from a remote host on the net, and got through. Apparently, my firewall
will forward any ports to internal servers, as long as the request does
not originate from the firewall itself.
Does anyone know how to get around this? I'd like to access the same
services from my firewall (and consequently from my internal network) that
everyone else gets from the outside...

Subject: dhcpcd error - sendto (renewing): Operation not permitted
Date: Fri, 04 Jun 1999 19:48:01 GMT
My linux box (Redhat 5.2, 2.0.36) is connected to Road Runner in Tampa
Bay as IP masquerade/firewall. The dhcpcd DHCP client can get settings
to initialize the interface but when it tries to renew the lease after a
half hour it fails. It retries and retries but I keep getting the
following error message in the log:
sendto (renewing): Operation not permitted
So after one hour the lease expires and apparently INIT reinitializes
the interface. This goes on for a few hours and then the Linux box just
suddenly locks up the box completely. It's difficult to tell what's
happening then, but I suspect that possibly Road Runner's DHCP server
vends out a different new IP address or even a new host name and the
whole system gets completely confused.
I thought it might be an error in the firewalling rules where I was
blocking the ports for DHCP, so I edited /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall so it
allowed ALL packets on udp ports 67 and 68, both sending and receiving,
but dhcpcd still fails. Also, I have tried both the original dhcpcd
that came with Redhat 5.2 and a version specifically modified for Road
Runner called rrdhcpcd by Joshua Jackson; they both give me the same
problem.
Has anybody got any idea why dhcpcd would fail this way? Thanks in
advance for any help you can offer.

If you are using ipchains to do your masquerading, you can create a rule to
accept and log all outgoing traffic.
ipchains -A output -j ACCEPT -l

Thanks for your answer!
I have no intention of hubbing the cable modem. Now I have two NIC:s in the Linux
box, one for the cable modem and one for the internal network. IP masq etc is set
up. I realize my best alternative (except for my wallet) would be to go for a
hub/switch capable of connnecting to both 10Mb and 100Mb. There is however a cost
penalty on those... Thats why I came up with this idea.
The problem with putting the NT machine in a chain is that then it has to be
switched on to be able to use the laptop and the printer. And the NT is placed in
our bedroom which makes that solution kind of impopular with certain people...

(please read this message with a fixed font)
You should only do it if you intrested in learning about routing policies,
subnets, etc. And I mean this in most possible way :)
You will need a third(!) 10mbit nic to connect de laptop with linux box.
The NT box and the laptop will be on a seperated subnet, linux on both.
You should use ipchains/ipfwadm to setup forwarding between NT and laptop.
Setting up smb file/printer sharing between these two subnets is quite tough,
especially setting up browsing correctly.
cable modem -----10mbit--- linux -------100mbit crossover-------NT
|
10 mbit hub
|
laptop
Alternative, you could plug the new 10mbit nic into the nt box and enable
forwarding on NT.
This might be prefereble if you do not require direct smb file/printer sharing
between linux and laptop.
cable modem -----10mbit--- linux ---100mbit co------ NT --hub-- laptop
However I do not recommend putting the laptop on the same subnet as cable modem.
The big question is should you do it?
- Well an extra 10 mbit nic and cables shouldn't be too expensive,
make sure you use a cat 5 crossover tp cable between NT and Linux
- It might be faster if run large graphic apps or games on the linux box.
But I don't think you will notice much.
However, if you are curious if will work and want to know how to set it up, try
it, the most trouble is having the laptop play along.
Good Luck!

I'm trying to get a Madge PCI 16/4 MB 2 adapter to work on Red Hat 5.2.
The problem is that when I install 5.2, the adapter is not recognised
when I select "Token Ring". I'm thus forced to continue installation
"stand alone". Probably, getting the system configured for "networking"
is quite a task editing files all over the system ...
Then, having set up the machine standalone, I install the Linux driver
that I downloaded from the Madge site (mtok.o), but the installation
script fails with the message: "insmod: init_module: Device or resource
busy". I've looked in /proc/pci and interrupts for conflicts but could
find none (it appears). A DOS util doesn't show any conflicts either and
a Madge DOS util shows the card to be working correctly.
Any suggestions Greatly appreciated! Thanx!!!
Mich.
