Thierry,
I have a Linux box running as a network server as well with a Win95 and
another Linux box connected to the network. Here's what I did to get mine
working maybe this will help you. The easiest way to install a network with
Linux is to have your ethernet card already in the box when you do the
intial installation, that way you can plug in your ip address' when asked
if you want to set up a network. Otherwise if you don't want to reinstall
you'll have to add a module to the kernal with kernelcfg an plug in your IRQ
and memory address of the network card. When you're in kernelcfg add an eth
interface and it will prompt you for the rest. I'd reinstall because you
can also name your machine and domain as well. I used 10.8.11.2 which is a
reserved set of IP address' for Local Area Networks for my server.
If you choose a reinstall , after installation boot back in Linux. At this
point you should have a hostname, bring up netcfg and click on the HOSTS
button. You should see the loopback interface 127.0.0.1 or whatever it is,
and an ethernet interface with the IP address of the server. At this point
you need to add your Win95 pc to the hosts file so it will see it on the
network. Click on add button and add the IP address , name of the Win95 pc,
and a nickname(ie. 10.8.11.7, Win95.yournetwork.net, Win95). You can also
do the same thing by editing the /etc/hosts file with the vi editor.
Now you need to setup your Win95 PC to connect to the network. Click on
Start/Settings/Control Panel. Once in the Control Panel click on the
Network icon and click the configuration tab. You should see your ethernet
card there under TCP/IP->Your brand ethernet. Double click on that and make
sure that the Primary Network Login is "Client for Microsoft Networks" is
selected from the drop down. Click once on your ethernet card in
configuration and click Properties. You should be at the point of adding
the IP address of your machine. Click "Specify IP address" and enter the
Win95 IP address, again I used 10.8.11.7 for my machine. Then goto the
Gateway tab and enter in the IP address of the Linux Server, again I used
10.8.11.2 for my server. Then click ok when you're done, you should be
back at the Network box. Now click on the identification tab to name your
Win95 pc, again I named mine Win95, called my workgroup "home" and gave a
brief discription of the PC.
Okay, were almost there, maybe I should write a HOW-TO on this, haven't seen
one. Now click on Start/Find and look for the file hosts.sam. This is the
same exact thing that you did on you Linux box with the /etc/hosts file or
through netcfg. You have to let each machine know about the others on the
network. So edit this file with a text editor and follow the format
described in the file(10.8.11.7, PCname.yournetwork.net, PCname for the
Windows box and 10.8.11.2 , Linuxboxname.yournetwork.net, Linuxboxname) save
and exit. Now you should be able to ping each machine by name or IP address
from either box. If this works your there, if not go back through the steps
I described. If everything is good try telneting into the Linux box from
the Win95 PC, when dial-up networking pops up just hit cancel, it thinks you
want to go out onto the Net. You should see your Linux box promt appear in
the telnet window, sign on and do what ever you want just like you were on
the Linux box.
Give this a shot, it worked for me, you shouldn't need a router. By virtue
that the machines already know that they are on the same network because of
their IP address'(10.8.11.x). Routers are only needed for if your accessing
another network, so I'm told. After you get this working you ought to get
samba up and running, it's pretty easy, you can see the Linux file system in
Windows Explorer. Oh, one thing I forgot to mention, once you get the
Network up and running you should be able to see each machine in Network
Neighborhood. Good Luck,
Steve Sims

I unwittingly managed to permanently shut down my ftp server when I
wanted to temporarily turn it off. I think a ftpshut command did it.
Rebooting doesn't get it running again. Researching the linux mans and
the books I've got has turned up no clues. Does anyone out there know
how I might get it going again?
Thanks for your help.

Subject: IP Masquerading vs. QuickTime Streaming
Date: 26 Jul 1999 02:56:49 GMT
I've had a box up for a while now running kernel 2.0.36 and Slackware 3.6,
providing net access for a small LAN using IP masquerading. Most stuff
works fine, but an attempt at watching streaming QuickTime video failed. I
know there's a kernel module (ip_masq_raudio) involved in getting RealAudio
(and related protocols) to work; is something similar available to enable
QuickTime streaming to work through a masquerading box? (It looks like
QuickTime uses a different set of ports (554 for RTSP/TCP and 6970-6999 for
RTP/UDP) than RealAudio, so maybe it's just a quick hack of ip_masq_raudio.c
that'll get it to work. Ideas, anyone? The relevant info on firewalls and
QuickTime is at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/qt4/us/proxy.

Consider me a bit chagrined, I missed that clue *totally*. Sigh...

I think Norton utils does what you want...

Is it possible to telnet into Linux RH6.0 server from Win95, and open x

change my display settings or run something else in Linux? I'm new to
all this. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

As mentioned in one of the follow ups there is a module for ICQ when using
IP Masquerading. Now what I don't understand is when you actually need to
use this module. I am running RH 5.2 and ipfwadm with 2 Windows 98
machines on a local net. The linux machine connects to the local net and to
a DSL modem for internet access. ICQ works like a champ without the module.
Perhaps you have your Masquerading rules set up incorrectly? Maybe you could
share them here for others to revuew and comment.

Subject: Duplicate icmp packet blues

I have Linux 6.0 set up as a router passing packets between ethernet and
token-ring LANs. I'm using an Olicom PCI 16/4 and an 3Com Etherlink
combo 10Mb. When I ping a host across the router (either way) I get a
massive number of (DUP)!'s along with the original echo. This was
driving me crazy. I ran tcpdump on both interfaces and the duplicate
packets disappeared, but returned promptly when tcpdump was killed.
Obviously this isn't a viable solution.
Any suggestions?

Here's what my slackware Linux 3.9 man page for ftpshut has to
say.
ftpshut(8) ftpshut(8)
Name
ftpshut - close down the ftp servers at a given time
Syntax
ftpshut [ -l min] [ -d min] time [ warning-message ... ]
Description
The ftpshut command provides an automated shutdown proce-
dure that a superuser can use to notify ftp users when the
ftp server is shutting down.
The time is the time at which ftpshut will bring the ftp
servers down. It may be the word `now', indicating an
immediate shutdown, or specify a future time in one of two
formats: + number or HHMM. The first form brings the ftp
servers down in number minutes. The second brings the ftp
servers down at the time of day indicated, using a 24-hour
clock format.
Ten minutes before shutdown, or immediately if ftpshut is
timed for less than ten minutes, new ftp access will be
disabled. This time may be adjusted through the -l flag.
Five minutes before shutdown, or immediately if ftpshut is
timed for less than five minutes, all current ftp connec-
tions will be disconnected. This time may be adjusted
through the -d flag.
The [ warning-message ... ] will be formatted to be 75
characters wide. ftpshut knows about the actual string
length of the magic cookies.
Running this command will create a file that the server
will use to determine when to shutdown. Once the shutdown
has occured, the server will continue to refuse connec-
tions until this file is removed. The location of this
file is specified by the shutdown stanza in the ftpaccess
file.
The following magic cookies are available:
Cookie Description
%s time system is going to shut down
%r time new connections will be denied
%d time current connections will be dropped
%C current working directory
%E the maintainer's email address as defined in ftpaccess
%F free space in partition of CWD (kbytes)
[not currently supported on all systems]
%L local host name
%M maximum allowed number of users in this class
%N current number of users in this class
%R remote host name
%T local time (form Thu Nov 15 17:12:42 1990)
%U username given at login time
Restrictions
You can kill the servers only between now and 23:59, if
you use the absolute time.
See Also
shutdown(1), ftpaccess(5)
I hope the above info gives you the needed starting point in getting
ftp back online again.
