Hi all,
I have question about using IPCHAINS. Following is our network.
External Network
|
|
eth0 |
===================
| 204.146.18.33 |
| | Redhat6.0 w/
| Firewall | linux Kernel 2.2.5-15
| |
| 192.168.1.1 |
===================
| eth1
|
|
Internal Network---------------------------------
| | |
| | |
------ ------ ------
| SMTP | | Web | | PC 1 |
|Server| |Server| | |
------ ------ ------
192.168.1.4 192.168.1.10
Q1. How can I forward the 'http://204.146.18.33' request to the
internal webserver(192.168.1.10) with IPCHAINS? I used to use
ipportfw with linux kernel 2.0.36 and work fine.
Q2. In stead of 204.146.18.33, I want to forward 'http://204.146.18.34'
request to the internal webserver as well. Thus, I setup IP alaising
in the firewall, eth0:1. I want to know how does it impact the
rules
of IPCHAINS and make it work.
Q3. PC 1 is unable to browse 'http://204.146.18.33' but
'http://192.168.1.10'.
People say that this can be fixed with an internal DNS. Is it the
proper
way to fix the problem?
Q4. Do you have any sample rules that I can make reference to?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Martin NG

Subject: Re: subnetmask (function) / Funktion der Subnetmask
You probably always use the default subnet masks (255.255.255.0 for Class C, as
in your example), but a computer cannot simply assume that's what you want. You
have to tell it exactly where the network bits end and the host bits start.
For example, 192.10.10.10 and 192.20.20.20 with a 255.255.255.192 subnet mask
would be on the same network. I recommend you find a nice spot on the web
(there are many) that go into subnetting in detail. Or buy a book.

Hi R.L.,
the computer always can assume that since Subnetting is only a _local_
configuration, you can have other hosts in the network with other Subnet
Masks, it wouldn't matter. Besides 192.10.10.10 and 192.20.20.20 with a
Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.192 are definetly not in the same network :-)
With a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.192 you divide a already existing
Class C Network into 4 new Nets.
Host ranges:
192.10.10.1 -> 192.10.10.62 (Broadcast 192.10.10.63)
192.10.10.65 -> 192.10.10.126 (Broadcast 192.10.10.127)
192.10.10.129 -> 192.10.10.190 (Broadcast 192.10.10.191)
192.10.10.193 -> 192.10.10.254 (Broadcast 192.10.10.255)
You always "lose" one IP address
for the Network and one for the Broadcast address.
A good start for learning this is probably the Subnetting Howto
from Linux or a good book e.g. from O'Reilly, which you should buy too
:-)

everything is ok...

Are there any other products? For example, is there anything like NetID
from Bay Networks in the Linux/Unix world. It would be important to be able
to support like 10,000 dhcp addresses/dns entries, etc. and be able to do
this across the enterprise.
Please let me know if there is anything like that our there.

Subject: PPP Configuration Guide/Docs?
Date: 7 Jul 1999 23:16:17 -0500
I have been fighting with PPP dial-on-demand for a couple days. After
stepping through the PPP How-To and the ISP Connection How-To, I'm stuck.
I want to set it up so my two Windows boxes can use the linux box as
an internet gateway, but can't seem to lick this problem:
The modem dials, and /var/adm/messages says that the connection has
been made:
Jul 8 00:13:12 compleat pppd[142]: Serial connection established.
Jul 8 00:13:12 compleat pppd[142]: Using interface ppp0
Jul 8 00:13:12 compleat pppd[142]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
But that is it. An IP address is never assigned, and eventually the
program hangs up.
I'm using kernel 2.2.10, with IPChains and IPMasquarading.
Does anyone know of a configuration guide out there for the kind of
setup I'm looking for? It would be greatly appreciated.

I'd greatly appreciate pointers to get a pppd server setup which does
not use getty for the user to login to and then run pppd as the user's
login shell. I've heard of this being done by running pppd inside
inittab and having the options set so that pppd with auth dialin users
via pap or chap. I'm asking this because I've tried a WIDE variety of
configuration possibilities with (virtually) no success.

No. No. No. Base ball and Rounders are fundermentaly different.
You can play rounders for the price of a small round ball. (it you are prepared to
use a stick as a bat).
Base ball requires vast amounts of mony spent on shirts, caps, bats etc :)
