Use ipmasqadm to setup port forwarding etc.
http://juanjox.linuxhq.com/
You'll also need to build one of these modules for the kernel:
ip_masq_portfw
ip_masq_mfw
(there is another one - cant think of it right now)
I personally like mfw. You set a rule using ipchains using the -m (mark)
option and then all packets matching this rule are marked with the value you
specified. then using ipmasqadm you specify what to do with those marked
packets, e.g
ipchains -A input -i eth1 -p TCP -d <local_IP> www -m 1 -j ACCEPT
Marks all incoming packets for your web server with value 1.
ipmasqadm mfw -A -m 1 -r <internal host to forward to> <port #>
Forward all marked packets to the internal host running the web server!

forgive me, but I can't see the point:
/bin/mount is r/x by everyone and /dev/scd0 is rwx for everyone.
this is ok, /dev/cdrom is just a --> link to /dev/scd0.
fstab says to mount /dev/scd0 (you could also say /dev/cdrom) to
/mnt/cdrom with fs=iso9660, _not_ automatically at boot-time, read-only
if done, and every user is able to do so (don't care about the following
0 0, that's special).
assuming the directory /mnt/cdrom (rwxr-xr-x root root) exists, you can
mount your cd by just typing
----zip----
#>
#>mount /mnt/cdrom
#>
----zip----
btw, to my knowledge these files etc you mentioned are owned by root,
but group should not be users but root also. what distribution do you
use and is this root/users permanent on all files ?

Of course it runs on Linux, why wouldn't it? This was a FAQ about 2-3

Subject: Shed light on strange Kppp occurence ??
Date: Thu, 05 Aug 1999 00:25:25 GMT
Situation = ISP address dynamically assigned - no files changed at
all between dial-ups.
Result #1 = If I get assigned xx.xx.xx.11 by chance, everything
fine.
Result #2 = Any other number such as xx.xx.xx.13 results in
connection ONLY to the local ISP sites - I.E. my own web page, their
home pages. There appears to be some kind of a DNS problem? Where ??
FWIW - My local ISP (new) can supply no information, not even what
protocol to use. They do not allow shell login so I'm unable to look
at any expected prompts to make a script. I tried Kppp and PaP, worked
right away, but with above problem. Netstat -rn shows exactly the same
routing each time with the exception of the ISP's assigned route.
Frustrated, and yes . . . gonna be looking for a new ISP, my old one
worked fine, but sold out their dial-up accounts.
Any ideas very much appreciated.

linux sites with no luck in finding my answer what ICMP is. I know my

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
hi all,
I want to run a small webserver (dhttpd) on port 81; it is supposed to
serve somewhat sensitive internal documentation so I'd like to allow
access to it only for a given range of ip numbers;
I guess it would be possible running the webserver from inetd with tcpd
but I'd like to run it as a daemon; so I guess I'd need a way to say
"connections on port 81 only allowed from IP's xxx.yyy.zzz"; is it
possible?
TIA for any help!

I guess I got this far and wimped out - I quit trying when I got Netscape
email working.
But I'd like to try to help: if rh 6 is like rh 5, SENDING mail with Pine
(or whatever) should be no big deal - the defaults worked fine for me...
GETTING mail, as far as I know, involves the FETCHMAIL program - that's (I
think) what you should focus on.
I say this because SENDMAIL is reported to be a real bitchy app to
configure - don't want to see you go there if that's not your problem.
On the other hand, to be any good at linux, I guess you'll have to face it
eventually. But for starters, I'd go with the easy ways first - less
frustrating that way...
Good luck!

I've upgraded from RH 5.2 to 6.0, and am now having problems with diald. It
connects fine, but won't disconnect. I'm using the same configuration and
rules that I used in 5.2, but the link stays up almost all the time.
How do I know what "Rule 32" is? I know proto 1 is the protocol defined in

I believe 0 (zero) and 255 are both reserved in all four parts of the IP
address. A zero refers to a network, and 255 means all systems. Try changing
the zero to a number greater than zero and less than 255.

Been there, done that!
I am fairly new also, but I have my Linux box up and running on @home.
Log into your KDE session and open a terminal window, su to root and start
linuxconf
Under the Networking tab open
Basic Host Info:
Adapter 1: set Primary Name+domain (the name @home assigned to you)
plus domain
Aliases: assigned name
IP Address: go ahead and use the one winipcfg showed
Netmask: likely 255.255.255.0
Network Device: eth0
Kernel Module: I believe yours would be 3x59x
choose quit, then click on
DNS tab & enter then primary and secondary DNS servers @home specifies. Then
under "search domain" enter your domain.
Routing & Gateways
Set Default: enter the gateway IP as defined by @home
Configure the routed daemon: be sure both boxes are unchecked
(unless you are using your box as a router... in that case enable, but
better have firewall up)
QUIT and ACTIVATE changes... Then down the box and restart
Once you are logged in su to root and type: route
This should show you what your routing table looks like. Then ping your
eth0's IP to be sure its talking, then ping the PDNS & Gateway addresses....
Hopefully you'll be talking to @home's servers.
This worked for me, I sure hope it helps.

I don't think there is a 'typical' for those as thtree are more
variations of the so-called ne2000 card than Orville R. has popcorn
kernels.
I just bought a cheap, no-namer (Addtron) pci version to replace an isa
that had terrible irq latency. I can only make it work if ne2k-pci is
compiled into the kernel. It then checks in as IRQ=5 and IO=0xe800!
However, that one works, handling a flood ping for 5 minutes at a time
with no errors.
