This actually only says that the Windoze machines are broadcasting
on their (only?) ethernet port, and that the Ballantain box is responding.
Check to be sure that the Windoze machines know that their default
gateway is the (local-side of the) Ballantain box.

You don't say whether you are masquerading or not, nor whether your
Ballantain box is doing IP forwarding or not (especially for ICMP packets).
If it isn't forwarding, you could see this effect. If it is forwarding, but
is not
passing ICMP packets, you could also see this effect.

Subject: Re: ifconfig - unbinding a IP from a NIC card? RH 5.2
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 1999 23:53:19 +0100
Not sure but maybe this will work??
(I have split the ip into sections for ease of writing it as follows:
192.168.1.1
a . b .c.d
so for 'a' read '192' etc..)
/sbin/ifconfig eth0:d a.b.c.d
/sbin/route add -host a.b.c.d dev eth0:d
replacing a,b,c and d with the correct IP address for your Linux box.
This may work, it may not - I really don't know - just an intelligent
guess.
NO GUARANTEES. You may be advised to wait for some more replies from
somebody who has more experience here than me.

The most flexible scheme would be to put 3 interfaces into the Linux
box that you are using as a firewall. Then you could run the private
network masqueraded on one of them, put (most of) your Class C
network on the second, and connect to the Cisco 2500 on the third.
This way, you can assure yourself that the firewall filtering rules will be
effective for all packets arriving and departing from your site, while still
having *real* IP addresses for each of the public services that you
describe. Putting all the servers behind the firewall and giving them all
the same (external) IP address would save you an ethernet interface,
but will load the Linux box down a fair bit, so depending on how fast
your CPU is, you may not want to take that path. If you do pursue this
option, you will need to look into port forwarding to make all these
services work.
You can also save an interface by putting a hub between the Cisco
2500 and the Linux box, and put all of the publicly-accessible machines
outside the firewall. This makes each machine so sited responsible for its
own security, which can be a managerial headache. But it does have the
advantage of making the site a little more fault-tolerant: in this last
case,
if the Linux box dies or is taken down, the public services continue to
work;
in the single-firewall case, taking the firewall down clobbers the whole
site,
instead of just the private part of it.

Are you sure the SMC EtherPower II nic is okay? Have you tried
plugging it in one of the Windows machines?

Has anyone successfully installed the Flash beta plugin for Linux(x86) with
Netscape 4.61(from Netscape tar, not rpm'ed)?
The README.TXT claims that it has been tested with RH 5.1 and 5.2,
Slackware 3.5.0 and only with Netscape 3.04, 4.08. 4.5. I am using RH 6.0
with Netscape 4.61.
Following the instructions, I exited Netscape, unpacked the
Flash_linux.tar.gz, and copied libflashplayer.so into my
/usr/local/netscape/plugins directory. I restarted Netscape opened Help ->
About Plug-ins and got no plugins installed. I verified at www.flash.com
that I cannot view flash at the flash site either.
Has anyone had any success with this platform and rev of Netscape?

I may be overlooking the obvious here, and you
may have done this already.... Make sure your
HOSTS file in the /etc/ directory has the info
for your windows machine. Also make sure that
linuxconf is set to search your hosts file then
dns...this may help and might not. Your ethernet
card and hub are working fine. You just need to
get your machines to like one another...
Good luck...

I've recently installed RH 6.0 on what was my Win 95 box and have not
succeeded in connecting to the Internet through my ISP.I have logged the ppp
stuff and it looks like it accepts my PAP name and password; I get "Login
Succeeded", I also receive a local and remote IP address, which I can then see
with ifconfig. The tail end of the log shows some CCP negotiations that
apparently time out ; this doesn't seem to cause a failure, though. My problem
is that with pppd "up" I get no response to ping (100% lost packets) or
nslookup. Netscape hangs forever. If I try to telnet to one of the ISP's DNS
addresses, I can get a"UNIX 4.x" and a login: message, so I'm connecting to
Someone! Any ideas? (will try to attach files here...)I appologize for the
format of the attached files... haven't figured out how to edit them yet.
Thanks!

trying to get smbclient to connect to another PC running Win95osr2.
The Linux PC has ip=192.168.1.10 named BRIO
The Win95osr2 has ip=192.168.1.20 named LEE
=======================================================================
PROBLEM #1: SMBCLIENT 139 (CONNECTION REFUSED)
Finally, after a whole day of trying and trying, and fiddling,
and complete and utter frustration, getting the connection refused error
over and over again,
I thought I'd try enabling the NetBIOS over TCP/IP in the dial-up
adapter
in win95.
There are two TCP/IP in the win95 control panel,
TCP/IP -> Dial Up Adapter and
TCP/IP -> Netgear FA310TX Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter.
The TCP/IP setting for the dial up adapter SHOULD be separate from
the TCP/IP that connects to my Netgear Ethernet card.
The Netgear TCP/IP has the NetBIOS over TCP/IP checked but it is also
grayed out so you can't modify it.
However, without the NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled in the dial-up adapter,
you can forget smbclient connecting to win95.
I wish Microsoft would've fixed this "feature"
BEFORE ENABLING NETBIOS OVER TCP/IP IN THE DIAL UP ADAPTER
[root@BRIO /root]# smbclient -L 192.168.1.20
Added interface ip=192.168.1.10 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 192.168.1.20:139 (Connection refused)
And on the windows 95 box:
"nbtstat -n" gives 'Failed to access NBT driver' which is not a good
sign,
meaning that nbt (netbios over tcp/ip) is not enabled.
AFTER ENABLING NETBIOS OVER TCP/IP IN THE DIAL UP ADAPTER AND REBOOTING
After win95 comes back up, I can launch a command prompt and
"nbtstat -n" runs properly now.
So now I try again with smbclient and as you can see, it connects
to 192.168.1.20 but is unable to establish a session.
[root@BRIO /root]# smbclient -L 192.168.1.20
Added interface ip=192.168.1.10 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Session request failed (131,130) with myname=BRIO destname=192.168.1.20
Called name not present
Try to connect to another name (instead of 192.168.1.20)
You may find the -I option useful for this
[root@BRIO /root]#
PROBLEM #2: CALLED NAME NOT PRESENT
now I get the "Called name not present error"...
probably because I'm trying to use an IP address.
so now I have to use the -I option to specify the IP address.
=========================================================================
[root@BRIO /root]# smbclient -L LEE -I 192.168.1.20
Added interface ip=192.168.1.10 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

[root@BRIO /root]# more /etc/hosts

192.168.1.10 BRIO.DON.COM BRIO
192.168.1.20 lee
[root@BRIO /root]#
=========================================================================
so to summarize:
"smbclient -L LEE" works (I think because I have LEE in
the hosts file)
"smbclient -L LEE -I 192.168.1.20" works (because I also specify the IP
address and the netbios name)
"smbclient -L 192.168.1.20" doesn't work because the netbios name isn't
given
I hope this saves somebody else the hell that I had to go through to
figure this out 8-)

Subject: cable modem setup question

Getting Road Runner installed next Saturday! Can't wait. I have a spare PC
to use as a server, how should I set this up. The PC is a P133 w/ 64MB RAM,
3 GB HD and a 3Com 10/100. I am thinking that I need to add another NIC to
this box, so one NIC goes to the cable modem and one to my HUB. Anyone out
there that has done this that can give me some advice it would be
appreciated!!!! Suggestions on what brand of NIC, is 10/100 needed, how to
share the single IP address (Proxy, IP mas.), what version of LINUX (Red
Hat, Slackware, etc.)
Thanks in advance
Steve

I have a simple question: does anyone know if there is an easy way to do PLIP
using a cable that has a 25-pin parallell connection on one end and a 9-pin
serial port connection on the other? Thanks in advance for any help...
