Maybe you are right but how come I don't come across anything to do

Subject: DHCP for 2 addresses on the same ethernet card?
Date: 17 Jul 1999 00:26:38 GMT
Hey!
Has anyone managed to set up a DHCP client to get 2 dynamic IPs on the
same physical interface? My problem is, I have an ADSL modem linked
to a linux gate and a couple of machines behind the gate on 10.x.x.x. For
obvious reasons I don't want to get a hub and an additional network card
just to get the 2nd dynamic IP.
I tried:
> ifconfig eth0 up
> ifconfig eth0:0 up
> dhcpcd eth0
> dhcpcd eth0:0
This works fine for the first copy of the DHCP client demon (eth0), but the
2nd copy (eth0:0) just conks out with
dhcpStart: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address
I am using RH6.0 with dhcpcd1.3.17pl2, just in case that make a
difference ...
All help appreciated,
Rudolf

None. If named is called every 10 minutes it meas some other apllication
is requesting a name resolution and named is trying to get it. The
recurrence might be a very short lifetime of the assigned IP (unlikely)
or something really strannge going on. Shouldn't be named tho.

It sounds like your DNS is functioning properly, since it is resolving the
conical name. I would think your problem is with your routing table.

Can you ping any of the NT boxes. I assume they all have an IP stack. You
should be able to ping them. Windows uses an SMB protocol for Microsoft
Network devices. Linux can integrate into a Microsoft Network, provide you
have Samba loaded and configured.
I have RH 5.2. I run 'linuxconf', which does most of the work for you.
Make sure you know what the network address is, and what the gateway for the
network is. You should be able to get this from the Administrator...

you first need to mount your floppy. I don't remember the command. It is
something like:
# mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
Anyway, once you have it mounted, you would copy a file to or from the
floppy like any other file.

Could that be a name resolution problem? ANother problem I ran into on a
linux box with IP chains, is that you can actually (accidentally) filter
out traffic on the lo device and that leads to strange results indeed!

Hey there,
I just installed a new network card on my system and have been having

Dear Linux/Unix Gurus,

I'm trying to find a way to add users to my Linux box without

I really want a way for a user to access a Web page, fill in a form,

I can not find any information about doing this type of thing

Hello,
It sounds like your local interface isn't running. Do an ifconfig and if you
don't see interface lo in the output, you must start it.
Go into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and type:
./ifup ifcfg-lo
Now do an ifconfig to confirm the interface was started.
Hope this helps.

Try the manpage for mount. Once you have the floppy mounted just copy it
like you would any other file. For a DOS formatted floppy this would go
something like this:
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
then:
cp /mnt/[filename] [path/filename]
Where filename is the file being copied, and path is the path to copy to.

.I did try your suggestion, with no success (; .
I then took a radical (surgical ) solution: I installed a Linux version
(RedHat 5.1 2.0.35, an old one) instead of my Win95 which by the way I'm
using just to make tests; it worked, so my hardware were fine, and so my
Linux box (as initially with the dummy device).
I then reinstalled Win95 and now I can ping, telnet, and so on, my linux
box. I think ( a supposition) that the problem was that the Win95 box
had the RAS service (with a modem ) installed, with a NIC. You can
possibly validate my point, I have not enough Windows experience

Subject: Problems in configuring a dialout server using diald and IP masquerading
Date: Sun, 11 Jul 1999 15:19:53 GMT
Hello all!
I want to install a dial-up server that is
connected to an ISP via a 56k modem using PPP
(dynamic local and remote IP addresses). On the
other side, it will be connected via a 10MBit
Ethernet card to a LAN consisting of 5 clients
which are standard Pentium PCs running Windows
and Linux (they are switched off most of the
time). That dedicated server is a AMD 386DX (slow
UARTs are no problem) with 8MB of RAM running
SuSE Linux 6.1 (Kernel 2.2.5). It shall establish
a PPP connection as soon as one of the other PCs
needs one. Then it should just deliver the
packets. I want to use diald and IP masquerading
to realize that. I want to be able to use all
services (WWW, FTP, news, telnet, ...) on the
clients via that connection. Furthermore I need a
log which client was when for how long connected.
Finally that server shall collect all emails sent
from the clients and send them twice a day to the
receivers. At that time it should also download
emails from various POP3 accounts and store them
locally so the clients can fetch them when they
are switched on.
IP addresses:
ISPs server: dynamic
server PPP: dynamic
server eth0: 192.168.0.1
clients eth0: 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.6
The LAN is running. I can use telnet and NFS to
connect from the clients to the server and vice
versa.
No my problems:
* I can establish a connection on the server when
calling pppd directly. I can use the connection
on the server but not on the clients.
* when using diald and trying to run e.g. ftp, I
get the error message from diald that the
connection script failed although it's the same
script that I use when starting pppd directly.
* diald does not recognize any connection
requests from the clients. I think they are using
the correct default route ;-)
* which programs are the best regarding the email
reception and delivery.
Where can I get help about configuring them?
* what kernel parameters do I have to select in
order to have everything from a kernel point of
view?
Although I read most of the howtos and man pages
about these topics, I still
have trouble ;-(
That's hell of a lot, but I hope you can give me
some hints.
Thanx,
Dennis

You can't allow regular users to establish ppp connections, at least not
directly.
You can, however, allow certain (or all) users to run certain commands as
root. Install the sudo package. Then regular users will be able to run "sudo
ppp-go". You can even alias this command as something more meaningful, say
"connect". Oh, and btw, change the permisions back to what they were unless
you want to open up a security hole.

You can send an AT commmand to the modem in the ppp dialing script at

I'm sure there is one which handle the number of seconds that can
