Anybody in hear every have any experience in sharing a DSL connection out
over a peer to peer 100mb in-home network? I'm looking to get one DSL line
for my home and be able to share it out to three different machines for
simulatenous operation. I'd like to be able to do it via software, rather
then having to buy expensive routers (that is, if possible of course).
Any help/info appreciated, email replys prefered.

Assuming that you have set it up using YAST and recompiled the kernel
for ISDN support, all you need to do is type the following in a bash
terminal: isdnctrl dial ippp0. To hang up, type: isdnctrl hangup
ippp0. The easiest way, by far, is to use kIsdn. It is a really great
program and will have you up and running in no time. You need to know
the IP adress for the DNS that your ISP uses and what authentication
sheme it is using--usually PAP.

What version of Netscape are you using? With all the v4.x
releases I've seen, the "Edit...Preferences...Advanced"
selection gives at least two sub-options: "Cache" and
"Proxies." Selecting "Proxies" allows you to configure
Netscape to use a proxy server.

boy you sure cross posted to a lot of groups. from
comp.os.linux.networking.
yes dsl work with ip masq. you have to do a little more setting up if
your isp insists on dhcp method of getting an ip address. otherwise if
you get a static ip, setting up ip masq is a snap.
recompile kernel, add second nic, add route, add ipfwadm or ipchains
depending on your kernel and that's it.
read ip masq howto, net3 howto, net2 howto, ethernet howto.
once you're all done and it still doesn't work then come back with
questions.

OK. You do have a NT box connected to the Internet, and want to
"see" the internal Windows network.
[...]

Samba. With this kind of setup, you'll need to run SAMBA
with "encrypt passwords = yes" , and you'll need to create
a smbpasswd file (see manpages for details).

Yes, otherwise it won't work.

Depends from your IP settings. Usually you'll need 255.255.255.0,
but if you're using a different IP range and/or subnets, then this
may or may not work.
Your LB must be setup as WINS server for this task. otherwise
NetBIOS_name->IP translation will not work.
> Does it matter if eth0 is in promiscouos mode or not?
No. Your NICs should _not_ be in promiscouos mode unless you
do need the output for debugging purposes. This is a security
risk.

I seem to be missing something.
I have debian linux 2.1 SLINK with kernel 2.0.36 and am trying to setup
ipportfw
So far I have:
- copied the file subs-patch-1.37.gz to my /usr/src/linux directory.
- applied the patch with: zcat subs-patch-1.37.gz | patch -p1
- run make config
This is where my problem lies - I can't see the
CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPPORTFW option.
It doesn't show up when I do a make config.
I realize I must be missing a step here.

I would check whether your reverse DNS (PTR records) is ok, and

it would probably help if you sent your smb.conf - only the part for the

I noticed that on a system I checked out the problem was greatly reduced
when I put all NETBIOS seervers into Samba's and the NT server's lmhost
files. Essentially I had to start tcpdump in diald' ip-up to see what
kind of DNS requests were going out (the owner of the network, a
"network solutions provider" didn't have the faintest idea what kind of
services went over his network).

I'd be willing to bet that this is why the delay is occuring. I have seen
this many times in the past. Especially on systems that are NOT running DNS
(bind)
The /etc/hosts file on the Linux box does not contain an entry for your
Win98 box. This entry is necessary so that the Linux box can do a reverse
lookup on the client that is trying to connect via telnet/ftp services. The
resolver (on the Linux box) is trying to determine your FQDN for the IP
address that is trying to connect, but eventually times out before it allows
inetd process to invoke (spawn) the service.

Hi !
Isn't your "/etc/hosts" filled with many station names ? Because with
nslookup, probably the "real" DNS (/etc/named.conf & /etc/resolv.conf) must
be used, but at usage with asks from other network stations the "/etc/hosts"
is searched for names resolution BEFORE the DNS. This may be an
explaination.
Perhaps too, I don't like at all localhost as DNS, you should use a real IP
adress (192.168.10.1 by example), so that no confusion may be possible.

I missed the fact that no dialing sting appears after it's sent.
It's likely that the chat expect/send script is ending prematurely.
If the expect/sends are arguments to chat then I'd look for a carriage
return that is not `\' escaped at the some expect/send line (except
the last of course). A space or TAB immediately following the `\'
would do it.

If you have only two box it is not necessary to have a gateway. Anyway you
can set gateway on win-side with 161.68.1.2 (which is linux-IP) but
161.68.3.101 is not allowed. So why don't you delete it.
