Subject: PAM authenticating to Novell NDS or NT Domain?
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 1999 18:42:34 -0600
Has anybody been able to get PAM to work with NDS, under Linux (or
Solaris/HPUX/etc)?
I'd like to be able to authenticate all of my Unix users to an existing NDS
tree. The PAM official website lists that this can be done using libncp
and the ncpfs distro, but the (Czech?) website for getting the NCP source
code is down. Since I'm attempting this in a heterogenous Unix
environment, I of course want to get the NCP stuff as source and compile it
against all my various flavors (ie no rpms!)
Does the NCP crap require an IPX stack to be available/loaded/configured?
What about in a Netware v5 pure-IP environment?
Failing NDS, how about authenticating to an NT domain controller? I have
pam_ntdom working on 4 RH5 boxes, but I can't get pam_ntdom to compile under
either Solaris 2.x or HPUX 10.20/11.0 because of unresolved symbols, which
I'm guessing indicates at least one library is missing. Happens under gcc,
Sparcworks compiler, and HP's real ansi compiler.
BTW, don't ever ask HP's Support Center for anything regarding Pluggable
Authentication Modules, which they have included in their OS for about 15
months, because even their back-line support has never heard of it!
Cheers!

You install ssh from an rpm or tar.gz file and under linux the client
that you execute is just called "ssh" Under Windows you buy a client
for $99 from Datafellows and it installs regular Windows with a wizard
and you run it from the Start/Programs menu. Linux install installs
man pages, Windows install installs help. The client version has to
match that of the server-- 1.x.x vs 2.x.x. Figure out which one is on
your existing server and get the client version that corresponds.
Initial setup after the client is installed entails generating keys.
Then, one of the keys must be transported to the server machine and
ascii-copied into a certain file to get the server to allow
communication from that particular client.

Subject: ppp server
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 1999 18:41:52 +0800
I've got an interesting problem, that i have never seen before. I have a
rh6 box up with a modem on each serial port (no mouse!). I also have mgetty
waiting on each modem. mgetty will do its thing, and i can establish a ppp
connection (on client, ifconfig shows ppp stats). But i cannot ping the ppp
server or anything else on the internet. I was figuring at least being able
to ping the server! There appears to be a route setup when the ppp device
is activated, but packets just don't flow. The modem doesn't even attempt
to send packets if i tell it to ping the server.
Its not much to go on - but if anyone has an idea please email me!
TIA

Subject: Networking woes--a clue?

I still can't get my Linux box to ping my Wintel PC. I reinstalled Win 95,
and confirmed that my network card is working, because under Win 95, I can
make contact with the other PC. But when I install Linux, it just won't
work.
I begin to suspect that there's a bug in my computer's NIC driver. I'm
using an old Digital Equipment Corp. NIC, an Etherworks 3 Turbo. According
to docs with the card, Linux comes with a module that works with this card.
This appears to be the case. The boot-up info indicates that the card is
indeed being recognized by the OS.
But then something odd happens. I decided to try to ping my other machine,
then wait awhile and see what happened. I got the following error message:
eth0: transmit timed/locked out, status 002d, resetting.
Ah-ha! I did a Web search for this particular error message and found it in
only one place; a 1997 page by a Digital engineer documenting the Linux
driver for this NIC. But I can't see anything on the page that clearly
explains what this message means and what I can do about it. It certainly
suggests to me that the computer can't use the card, due to a software bug.
Any suggestions, folks? Anybody out there with a Linux box using this
Digital NIC? Thanks.

Maybe what you've got here is an interrupt conflict (or similar). Check
"/proc/interrupts"
for more information and consider to change the NIC hardware settings.

Well Andrew, as a matter fact it does. AAnd if you'd give it some
thought you would see: That one netscape is the primary browser in the
*nix world. Being such it is also the primary source by which many
access SAMBA files.
If Netscape screws linux then samba will suffer because many potential
users of *nix will say to hell with it and stay with windows. Andrew
I know you are a longtime unix man, to bad really since it gives you a
myopic view on the world.
I realize unix has been a cozy little clique for decades, but the
future requires recruits, good, smart recruits. Anything which may
hinder that effort is or should be a concern of all aspects of this
effort.
You may think little of linux, but it is the talent pool of the future
for all of *nix.
And lastly that post was meant as information, not debate. Your
resp[onse generated response, think about that.

Nope. Just that one company I'm working with. The best you can hope for is
chat, whiteboard, file transfer, and one-way video/audio (but not in your
direction). If you use, version 3.x of CUSeeMe software from Whitepine, you
can use ipmasqadm autofw -A -r <protocol> <low port #> <high port #> -h
<masq'd workstation> -v (if you want verbose). I believe the two key ones
for CUSeeMe are 7648 and 7649.

The following is directly from the FAQ file included in the pppd
source file archive:
========================================================================
Q: When I try to establish a connection, I get an error message saying
"Serial link is not 8-bit clean". Why?
A: The most common cause is that your connection script hasn't
successfully dialled out to the remote system and invoked ppp service
there. Instead, pppd is talking to something (a shell or login
process on the remote machine, or maybe just the modem) which is only
outputting 7-bit characters.
This can also arise with a modem which uses an AT command set if the
dial command is issued before pppd is invoked, rather than within a
connect script started by pppd. If the serial port is set to 7
bits/character plus parity when the last AT command is issued, the
modem serial port will be set to the same setting.
Note that pppd *always* sets the local serial port to 8 bits per
character, with no parity and 1 stop bit. So you shouldn't need to
issue an stty command before invoking pppd.
========================================================================
You can find the full pppd archive with documentation here:
ftp://cs.anu.edu.au/pub/software/ppp/
Try a search of http://www.deja.com for the above error messages.
I bet you will get many solutions.
Basically, I think your chat script is not working properly.

1. Are there any other networking protocols installed on the Windows
machine besides TCP/IP? If so, remove them.
2. Does the Windows machine have a hosts file installed in the
c:/windows directory? It should have the IP address, fully
qualified name, and shortname in it for both of your machines
just like on the Linux side.
3. On the Windows side, is the Gateway pointing to the Linux machine?
This is setup in the networking stuff.
4. Has your domain and DNS server numbers been setup on the
Windows side also?

Look at your bootup messages to see if linux sees both ethernet cards and
has the right io and irq addresses. If this is not so, use the driver
diskette to find out or reset these values. Usually there is an executable
on these diskettes that allows you to set and configure your ethernet
cards. If you don't have a dual boot, make a boot disk for dos and that
should do it for you.

If you use Linuxconf to set up your cards under Basic host information,
enter the I/O and IRQ's of both cards in both Net devices:
Eth0
I/O port (opt) 0x340, 0x300
Irq 11, 12
Eth1
I/O port (opt) 0x340, 0x300
Irq 11, 12
In your /etc/conf.modules, add:
alias eth0 ne

That should do it...

Also these for networking with samba linux<->winbox:
This site has a step by step howto for complete setup of samba. steps
for both linux and the win machine. (and they really work <G>)

I found this file and it contains:
passwd: files [NOTFOUND=return] nisplus nis

There is also a file called /etc/nsswitch.conf this should determine the order
that naming services are queried in.
