Subject: Help: Apache as firewall proxy *very* slow (RH6.0)
Date: Sat, 19 Jun 1999 13:27:06 +0200

Hi,

I've installed RH 6.0 (Server) out of the box and modified
the Apache httpd:

ProxyPass / http://10.x.y.z

10.x.y.z is a computer connected to this firewall.

When I start Netscape on the computer, I can connect
to 10.x.y.z and everything works fine. When I connect
to the second ethernet port (externally). I get the page
but It takes a enormous amount of time.

Since I had the same problem when I tried to use
FWTK (http-gw) I am afraid that I am doing something
very stupid... Maybe something in the kernel???

Anyone?

Thanks in advance,
John

My 6.1 version is a little different and uses 2.2.7 mods. If you go
to the web site suse.com you can find a discussion of the missing
modules, and you can download a 5.9Mb package kernmod.rpm which
contains the missing modules.

Be sure to enable IP_FORWARDING in your /etc/rc.config file. There is
a mediaone site that will help you in converting your old ipfwadm
instructions to the newer ipchains form.

Is this fun?

I have one of these parallel version drives and I use it for back-ups and
downloading to.
I don't know if this will work in any other version than RH 5.2.

First you must re-compile your kernel (read the KERNEL HOW-TO if you're
not sure how to) with parallel support and Iomega Zip Drive as modules.
Then you type this command: "mkdir /mnt/zip" (omitting quotes).

When you want to use the ZIP drive you type this command: "insmod ppa"
(omitting quotes)

To mount this drive, the command is: "mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip" -
provided the zip disk is MS-DOS formatted.

When you want to use the printer you must remove the ZIP drive module
like this:
"rmmod ppa"

And install the printer module like this:
"insmod lp"

Any other questions don't hesitate to e-mail direct to:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hope this gets you on your way to using your ZIP Drive.

That isn't much use, you need to find out why the relay

Subject: ppp server on RedHat 5.2
Date: Sat, 19 Jun 1999 21:30:49 +0800

Hi :

I am trying to setup a PPP dial-in server on RedHat 5.2 and encountered
some problem.
Basically I follow the document "Setting up a PPP Dial-in Server with
OpenLinux (REF #990311-0017)"  from Caldera.  I also reference PPP-HOWTO
(section 26. Setting up
a PPP server).

Here is a list of software I am using :

1. RedHat 5.2 (2.0.36 when I issue "uname -a")
2. ppp : 2.3.5-1
3. mgetty : 1.1.14-5

Files modified :
1. /etc/mgetty+sendfax/mgetty.config :
   port ttyS1
   init-chat "" AT&F&C1&D2
   speed 115200
2. /etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config
   /AutoPPP/ - @ /usr/sbin/pppd +pap login

3. /etc/ppp/options :
    asyncmap 0
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    lock
    crtscts
4. /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
    ppp * taiwan
5. Add the following line into /etc/inittab
    S1:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/mgetty cua1

notice that the modem is connected to com2 (i.e. cua1, ttyS1).

When I dial into the Linux server from Win95, login name and password
checking has passed and Win95 complains that "dial up network cannot
negotiate with the protocol
specified in dialup networking" (I translate this error message from
Chinese Win95.  I
don't know the exact English message.)

The /var/log/messages looks like :
...
pppd[12279]: user ppp logged in
 LCP : timeout sending Config-Requests

I have used ps to confirm that pppd is automatically invoked.

Can anybody advise me what it went wrong ?  I guess that I don't know
set up so that a dynamic ip address can be assigned to the dial-in
client once it has passed the
pap authentication process.

Thanks.

Henry

Subject: Downloads make other connections crawl.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've noticed since I installed Linux (RedHat 5.2, now using 6.0) that if
I have a FTP or HTTP transfer going, all other networking connections
seem to slow to a dead crawl.

It doesn't seem to matter what speed or amount of available bandwidth
the transfer is taking up, for instance a 1.5k/s transfer out of the
bandwidth of my 56K modem (we'll say 5K/s or so) should allow me snappy
connections, but it isn't the case.  But if I start several transfers,
it's not unexpected to find that I have 3 or 4 1.5k/s transfers.

I *know* this can't be common, otherwise Apache/Linux wouldn't be so
popular!  Maybe there is some networking option I am missing.  I don't
think it's an interrupt priority problem, I don't notice an overall
machine slowdown, just other net connections.

Again, using Redhat 6.0, 2.2.10 kernel, PPP compiled in, using an
internal 56K modem to connect to Mindspring using PPP, usually connect
at 46666 or better.

Appreciate any suggestions..

Pppd needs to have the "defaultroute" option set.  There also should be
no existing default route, e.g., a default route to a LAN to which your
machine belongs.  Pppd won't replace an existing default route with one
through the PPP interface even with the defaultroute option.

Yes.  Gnome is kindof buggy, but I use it and some people swear by it.  It
looks kewl!

>2) I've heard of problems with Gnome's ppp, what are they ?

`:-o   Oh dear, there seems to be a slight misunderstanding here.  Gnome is
a grapical user interface and is related to PPP in much the same way that a
duck is related to a goldfish.

As is the case with most things in Linux, there is not just "one correct"
way to do things.  Not just one method, sanctioned by the almightly
corporation on high, blessed by the clerics of the evil hoardes.  Oh no!
There are usually many alternatives for any given task.  Take PPP for
instance, you can use diald, pppd, kppp, and I'm sure there are others.

Oh, you wanted help didn't you (see below).

>3)The machine boots into Gnome, can that be changed ? How ?
"Yes" and "I dunno".  Actually I do, but I bet you want a GUI solution
(being a newbie), and in that case...I dunno.

Come to think of it, this is a can of worms.  If you mean that it boots to a
graphical login screen, that says run-level 5 to me.  If that's what you
mean and if you want to switch to a text-based login, type:      init 3

You could type 'init 5' to switch back.  There's alot more to this than what
I just said, but I don't want to write a book, so I'll just cut myself off
here.  Try comp.os.linux.x, there is alot of traffic on that group.  I'm
sure you'll get an answer there, but see below first.

>4) Can I set up my ip masq, etc in X, or do I need to edit files

You need to work out the forwarding/masquerading rules (interactively) and
then put them in a script file somewhere.  The command you're looking for is
ipchains if you have a 2.2.x kernel, otherwise use ipfwadm (see below).


>Thank you for helping a newbie

Ahhh, newbie help eh?
(This is what I wanted you to see)

Your best and closest-at-hand resources for help are the man pages.  For
help on built-in shell commands try help <command>, otherwise man <command>
or man <config file> will do.

 Then there are the HOWTO documents on the CD-ROM (these are also on the FTP
sites) in one of the the documentation directories.  There are also
mini-HOWTO's in a directory beneath the grown-up HOWTO's.
There are HOWTO's for networking, IP Masqerading, etc.

Sometimes you'll find additional/alternative documentation in
/usr/doc/name-of-application-whatever-it-is

One of the best web-based resources is www.deja.com.  Go ahead, try it.  In
case you don't know it has a great number of newsgroups archived.  You can
often find the answer to your problem (without having to wait) by starting
there.  Please look there first.

Also try this URL:
http://metalab.unc.edu/mdw/


You should also get a beginners Linux book too.  "Linux Unleashed" got me
started.  It was a bumpy start, but I got started.

Good luck and don't fear the Penguin!

Subject: How do I test it ? 
Date: Sat, 19 Jun 1999 09:59:47 -0500

I have two Netgear ethernet cards in my Linux machine. I want to hook my
Cisco router up to one and use the machine as a internet gateway which I
have been doing with PPP until the DSL line got hooked up.

I am assuming this is the right order to make things happen
1) Make both cards eth0 and eth1 work on the LAN (to test)
2) Get the Linux machine to access the internet
3) Make sure my IP masquerading is working like it did before.

I realize there is some tricks to using dual cards. I added a line to my
Lilo.conf file that says append = " ether =10,0xec00,eth0
ether=3.0xe800,eth1"

When it starts it says bringing up eth0 and bringing up eth1 but hangs at
sendmail for just a few seconds. I thought this usually meant there was
something wrong with your network connection when this happens...

When I get into X Windows I ping another machine on the LAN it works. When I
switch the cable to the other ethernet card it does not work until I disable
them and reinable them. Is this an improper test procedure ? How should I
test the ethernet cards to make sure they work before I move on to step two
and try to make the DSL line work?

Thanks in advance for your help.

12 packets transmitted, 12 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = -969.-8/6968.3/41984.6 ms

Very strange.  This happens whether I've loaded my ipchains rules or
not, so I don't think it has to do with them.  The strange thing, of
course, is that when I do the same ping from my Mac or Windows machines
inside the network, they work FINE and give "normal" results to
traceroutes and pings.

Any thoughts?

Please help!
