Date: Sun, 25 Jul 1999 20:08:23 GMT
Im trying to setup my cable modem, and i cant get it to work, the
ethernet card loads during boot up at eth0, and i ran netconfig.
Im using Slackware 4.0
here is the info i got from my @ home provider:
IP: 24.114.10.96
Net Mask:255.255.252.0

GWAY: 24.114.8.1
DOMAIN: hnsn1.on.wave.home.com
CLIENT: cr400959-a
I entered all of that and when i run ifconfig i get the following:
ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:C6:F8:1E:3E inet

In addition to Clifford's excellent reply, you could install KDE and use
its kppp to connect ISP. But before all, deal with the IRQ issue. Here
is my setup:
1. Installed KDE -> KDE environment starts being offered at main logon
window. But I still use Gnome.
2. Logged in as normal user (non-root) and Gnome-Panel --> Add-Applet
--> Network --> Modem-Lights
3. Right clicking the Modem-Lights applet and selecting Properties:
General / Updates per second : 5 Note-1
General / Connect command : kppp
General / Disconnect commabd : kill `/sbin/pidof pppd` Note-2
Advanced / Modem lock file : /var/lock/LCK..ttyS2 Note-3
Advanced / Device : ppp0
4. As root, edit /etc/ppp/options and delete the line containing "lock".
It should be an empty file. This command should do the same thing: "echo
> /etc/ppp/options"
5. As root, issue : chmod u+s /usr/bin/kppp /usr/sbin/pppd Note-4
6. As user, click Modem-Light applet. This will bring up kppp main
window. Select Setup and do your setup. That's it. You don't have to
have DNS, routing etc. configured in system. kppp does all those
definitions dynamically on the fly, and reverts back when connection
closed. Use kppp : it's really cool.
7. In kppp setup there are several options to be set to use kppp
conveniently in non-KDE environment (I'm writing without checking,
because I cannot open main kppp window while I'm online. So wording and
completeness will probably suffer):
Check : <Minimize when connected> : This minimizes kppp to taskbar
while you're online. To disconnect (or see connection details)
un-minimize it.
Uncheck : <Place on panel when connected> : It means KDE panel and I
work under Gnome.
________________________________________________________________
Notes:
=====
1- Depends on your liking.
2- It kills pppd directly. Instead, you use kppp again to disconnect. So
while this additional method of killing pppd adds no value, I defined it
just in case I might need it.
3- Put here the ttyS? actually you use.
4- See Help under main kppp dial window. This method has some security
concerns. Though for a home workstation it should be okay.
Good luck,

Date: Sun, 25 Jul 1999 21:26:43 +0200
I have 2 computers in my house that I would like to network. I have a Win
98/Mandrake 6.0 dual boot machine with a dial up internet connection (DUN
for win 98 and PPP for Linux), a Mandrake 5.3 Linux box. I would like to be
able to network the 3 PC's together and use the Mandrake 5.3 computer as a
file/print server and the Win 98/Mandrake 6.0 as a my internet surfing and
general use PC. I know how to set up the file and print server aspect of the
network but I need to know how I can configure my PC that runs win
98/Mandrake 6.0 to connect to the Dial Up connection and connect to y home
network at the same time. Is it just a matter of installing the Ethernet
cards and configuring two different network connections or will my PC try to
access the internet from the Ethernet card instead of my modem? I also need
to know what ip address is not used for anything but non-internet connected
PC's. I remember reading about a null ip address but I cant remember which
one it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Somewhere in your startup scripts, you need to add something like
this:
/sbin/route add -net 24.114.0.0 netmask 255.255.252.0
/sbin/route add default gw 24.114.8.1 metric 1
The 24.114.0.0 comes from ANDing your netmask with your IP, and is
your 'network.'
To send me email, replace 'nospam' with 'home'.

Go for the doc's. /usr/doc/howto/ and the Ethernet-howto.
5.24. LinkSys
LinkSys make a handful of different NE2000 clones, some
straight ISA cards, some ISA plug and play and some even
ne2000-PCI clones based on one of the supported ne2000-PCI
chipsets. There are just too many models to list here.
Linux gets a mention in their WWW support page. Have a look
at:
http://www.linksys.com/support/solution/nos/linux.htm
if you are having trouble using one of their cards with
linux.
(I guess what you need to do is to turn off pnp on the nic, set a irq
and I/O, and use the 'ne' module. with the values set. Use values not
in use already, a 'cat /proc/interrupts' and 'cat /proc/ioports' give
some information. Be sure not to produce a conflict with the
soundcard. irq 10 and i/o 0x300 are very common values, are they free?)

Is that a bridging hub? Able to have both 10Mbps and 100Mbps nics
connected to it?
You might run into problems on getting the 100Mbps side to go down to
10Mbps. http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/NWay.html (but you are
not there yet. First you need to get the nic working.)
_If_ that becomes a problem; To narrow the problem down a bit, please
try without the hub. And use a _crossover_ tp-cable instead. Any

In the setup for the nic on the Win95 machine i guess you have a
choice between auto, 100mbps, and 10Mbps. I would, if problem, and as

Why not.

I have successfully set up IP-masquerading on my Suse 6.0 with
Kernel 2.2.7. using it to access the Internet from within
VMWare running Windows 98 (and other machines on the network,
when I fixed the problem).
Everything works fine after booting. After surfing a couple
of minutes the connection from Win98 breaks while from within
Linux it is still available. Only with rebooting Linux I get it
back to work. :-((
Any suggestions where to look to find what the problem is???

Under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ is there a 'ifcfg-eth0' ?
if so, does it help to 'ifup eth0' ? ('/sbin/ifup eth0')
If not any ifcfg-eth0 file i suggest starting
linuxconf
and maneuver with 'enter' and 'tab' to:
Config

I manually set the COM ports on the modem but it still respond the same
way. Do I need to adjust my mobo's CMOS setting to disable PNP or
something like that? I didn't try that and giveup after a few attemps, I
set it back to PNP and boot Win98. Now, Win98 can't see the modem (and I
try to reinstall it a few times). Anybody have any idea?

^^^^^^^^^^^
Me neither Clifford. In my local area of experience, with so far 3
different ISP's and an inhouse network at the tv station thats as big a
working mixed bag kludge as you can imagine, I don't recall making it
work without that being set the instant a modem/ISP gets into the
picture.
The inhouse network, a mixed bag of coax, cat5, convertors, hubs
(plural!) with one linux box, a 4 pack of Amiga's, half a dozen or more
New Toys, a few W98's, and a bunch of W95's, all going out to the net
via a modem on the linux box is the part I can't testify about, Jim
Hines set that up, so I can't say for sure its setup that way over the
ethernet.
BTW, we were, for about 18 months, using one of the Amiga's for a
gateway to the net. Worked ok, but we can see a speedup now that a
400mhz linux box is doing that bit of funneling. We may have been the
only fools to attempt to do that with an Amiga for all I know! With the
newsies looking for news, sales looking at who knows what, and us trying
to keep up with the email, that 56k USR external modem probably sets a
new world record for data moved through one 56k hole in a days time.
Cheers, Gene
