Most ISPs do run Win*-oriented logon scripts, that's why you won't have

Gentlemen:
My first post failed, apparently news server has problem with Netscape 4.5+ on
Linux. Trying again, sorry...
There were a number of posts complaining about runsocks not working on RedHat 6.0
(coredumping on all programs). I've spent a while trying to get it to work, and it
seems to be related to a bug (?) in dlsym() when library symbol versioning is used
(default in 2.1.x glibc). Anyway, I'm sure this will get resolved in the later
versions of glibc, however if you want to run your apps on RH using runsocks in the
meanwhile, apply the following patch to your socks5-v1.0r9:
--- begin patch---

It may complain a bit about converting pointer to integer in dlvsym() as it
doesn't seem to get a definition for it, but will work fine.
Enjoy!

I have a Novell NetWare network which I am trying to get my RH6 box to

Linux to no avail. IP works great over the same interface. I have a
hunch that the problem is IPX related. My NetWare servers are at the
latest patch levels and are communicating with one another and other
Micro$oft clients properly. Does anyone have a clue?
BTW: Is anyone working on porting NetWare 5's NCP/IP to Linux?

Hi! I'd like to have up to 3 shares automounted when starting Linux, as
well as umounted when I shut down.
So my questions: which files do I have to modificate? (I'm using SuSE
Linux 6.1) and much more important will be, that I have to be able to
access these shares as normal user, so how can I manage that I don't
have to go su every time I want to write something on the network!!!
Thanks for your support!!!

Subject: IP Masquerading problem
Date: Fri, 02 Jul 1999 14:10:29 -0500
I'm running RedHat 6.0, with IP Masquerading
set up to provide internet access to my other
computers, and it works great, except for one
problem....
Some web sites just won't come through on the
other computers. Almost all sites come through
fine, but a few, such as www.buy.com, www.sony.com,
and lately, www.gamestorm.com will not. The web
browser says it connected to the site, but then it
just waits forever.
These sites do come through fine on the machine
with the modem, so I think it must be a problem
with masquerading.
I can telnet into the sites, and type GET, which
works fine on the machine with the modem, but
on the others, it just waits forever.
I use this script to get masquerading started...
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp.o
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_raudio.o
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc.o
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0
I also had this problem using RedHat 5.2
and ipfwadm
BTW, the gamestorm site just started not working,
and I can't think of anything that's changed
since it did work.
Any ideas or suggestions????
thanks
Mark

well - 1st things 1st - microsoft didn't come up with vpn - they only

vpn IS microsofts' version of *nix's pptp.
so, now that the 1st thing is done, I find I've answered your Q too!
:-)
as for how far along pptp for linux is, that I don't know - I haven't
yet implemented it in anything other than win.
but i'm sure the man/doc/howto's will give you version/release info...

Subject: 2.2.10 upgrade => broken networking
Date: 2 Jul 1999 01:09:39 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I just ftp'd 2.2.10 from linux.org, built and installed on a stock RH5.2
system. I'm on a standalone box (no eth0) with the only networking being
between Linux and a VMWare hosted Win98 (VMWare, for those that don't know,
is a spiffy app that runs Win junk in a virtual machine on top of Linux).
With the 2.2.10 kernel Samba is broken, ping/ftp/telnet Linux <==> VMWare
Win98 is broken both ways. ping/ftp/telnet works to local IP in both cases,
ifconfig looks the same as the RH5.2 kernel, X works, local Apache works.
Reboot the RH5.2 kernel and all is well.
Any ideas? I have upgraded absolutely nothing else but the kernel -- do I
need anything else for such basic networking to work?

it *is* legal. the point is that it is
a) a syntactically correct C++ program
b) doesn't have a finite compile time nor finite sized assembly output
the whole point is to be a counterexample to a previous assertion that
a) and b) were mutually exclusive. it's not intended to be useful as
an actual program.

Use IP masquerading. Look at http://members.home.net/ipmasq/ for more
information.
All user IP addresses will be masqueraded with the IP address of Your
Linux box.
All users of the local intranet will tranparently surf the internet with
the IP of the Linux box.
> b.)Automate the dial-up process and make it invisible to the user.
Use diald to bring up and shut down modem connections automatically. See
the man pages of diald and have a look at the file /etc/diald.conf.

are trees) and all operations are computable.
The shit might hit the fan if the syntax would allows recursive
functional types (e.g. with recursive typedef - typedef int A(A); would
give a bad PITA)

The first deals specifically with IPMasquerading
The second has the HOW-TO's in plain and html format LOTS of good

Also, go to deja.com and do a search on ipMasquerading , proxy, etc

Subject: Problems running PPP scripts....
Date: Fri, 02 Jul 1999 13:04:10 -0700
Here's my problem: I use a script 'ppp-on,' which connects just fine if
the root user executes it, but if I execute that same script as a normal
user, the script fails with these messages:
Jul 2 00:57:34 blah pppd[296]: pppd 2.3.5 started by bob, uid 500
Jul 2 00:57:35 blah pppd[296]: Connect script failed
Jul 2 00:57:36 blah pppd[296]: Exit.
I set pppd to run suid root, so that is not the problem, and I dont know
what could be causing it. I have a feeling that it has something to do
with permissions, but I don't know what file is causing this.
This is what my ppp-on script looks like, if that will help:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/sbin/pppd connect 'chat -v "" ATL1DT8228836 CONNECT \
"" ogin: username word: password' /dev/ttyS0 115200 noipdefault crtscts
\
modem defaultroute
Thanks

Is /etc/resolv.conf configured with a DNS nameserver for the LAN? Or does
the /etc/hosts file on the laptop connect the name of the peer with the
IP address?
: 5. Ping anything else BROKEN
Same questions as for (4) except applied to the other LAN boxes. I'll
assume the question applies just to those boxes since there's no mention
of a connection to the Internet via the LAN. That would be an entirely
different ballgame.

What is the laptop routing shown by route -n _after_ you connect?
The actual output, not a narrative. If you can't ping the LAN boxes
by IP quad address but can ping the peer then something is wrong with
the routing on one of the PPP peers provided the connection is sound.
: These are the server files that I think are relevant to the problem:
: /etc/ppp/options:
: asyncmap 0
: netmask 255.255.255.0
: proxyarp
: lock
: crtscts
: modem
: /etc/ppp/options.ttyS1
: lock
: :192.168.0.2
: defaultroute
You don't need the defaultroute for a leafnode box that calls in. Even
if the laptop is on a LAN of it's own you would only need a network
specific route.
: proxyarp
: crtscts
: modem
These are redundant of course, as is the "lock". Not part of the problem
though.
