SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS:I would suspect that
PNP is the problem, you would be wise to leave it enabled in
linux, and DISABLE PNP in Bios. Additionally, make sure you
preform a COLD boot into linux, as some versions of ethernet
drivers dont agree if they come in after a windows warm boot.
Finally, make sure your netmask is 255.255.255.0 (Or some
reasonable facsimile, just not 255.255.255.255 for your eth0
driver).

Goodday,
I am sorry to say that your answer is wrong.
with ARP it is not possible to directly translate a hardware address into an
ip address.
Since the user is apparantly not in my ARP cache it appears that I have to
find some

entire network.

It's tuffy and exciting..
Let me think aloud. Since normal routing works by examining destination
address only, and since your routing depends on source as well, it seems
that just routing won't cut it. However if you can formulize the net
addresses accessed by different NICs, it will not hold true. I'm
assuming that it's not possible.
Inspecting source address (or interface) means firewalling. So far as I
can see, you must redirect packets coming in from a specific interface
and not destined for local network, to the other interface.
Just wait, got another idea. What about if you proxy-arp *all* addresses
except the local one across *both* interfaces? It is possible to proxy a
subnet. If you tweak that "subnet" definition a bit too far.. to include
all IP range, it might work. Packets destined to your machine should be
delivered correctly even if your proxied address range includes that
local address (I think).
But it is just a guess without so much thinking.

SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS:Often speed varies
widely, and SMB isnt the greatest. Try playing with the
SMB.conf settings, and try 'write raw = on' (Or off, if its
already set. Often times its just a bug in one os or another.
There are other settings you can tweak, like max xmit = 2048,
read raw = yes, and about a dozen others, but the problem is
often a matter of SP's on NT, try upgrading if you can, but
bluntly, it could possibly be as good as it gets. You might
renice samba for a better priority. Unfortunately, since it
_does_ work, there is no obvious problem, its not an issue of
if, so all the connections are good, but unfortunately, the
speed is influenced by a wide amount of things, and many are
out of your control. Since you said it worked well on Win2k,
and not on NT, i would suspect NT at fault, not samba. Try
downloading newer SP's, or waiting for SP6. Best of Luck!

Just checking: the ip of the windows box is 192.168.0.x where x
is not 0,2 or 255 rite? Could there be irq conflicts on the
linux box? What does ifcofnig eth0 show? It should at least
show the number of transmit packets increasing and no error
packets. Do the lights on the NIC and hub/switch light up when
you ping?

Sygate, unfortunately, after a bit of research, is much like
wingate 3.0. The only way to make it work as a gateway, is to
replace winsock on the client machines. Linux doesnt use
winsock, it uses a different setup. In other words, the only
way to make sygate work is if it has proxy options.
Unfortunately, i dont believe sygate does, so your only hope of
making linux work through a gateway of that nature, resides in
either sygate making a linux client (not likely) or using
different software (Wingate works fine, but you must configure
the linux software to operate through proxy, the simplest is
the Dante Package, and 'socksifying' your program. You can get
more information at freshmeat.net) Lastly, you can configure
the linux box to be a gateway, if you make it the internet
point of presence, (i.e. give it the modem / ADSL line / Cable
Modem) There is extensive documentation available at
redhat.com in the search (even if you dont have red hat) If
your kernel is up to date (2.2.5 or better) search for
'ipchains howto' if its olde, search for 'ipfwadmin howto'.
For modem help, make sure its an externel, or ISA modem, no PCI
modems work, and some, but not all, combo modems (Sound and
modem or other mixes) work. Best of luck, sorry I for not
having an easier solution.

SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS:most probalby your
machine tries to resolve a name. a lot of deamons trie to
resolv the names of their clients before logging the connection
to a log file. or uppon connection they trie to veryfie that
the client has an dns entry ... so it is no wonder that your
machine tries to diela up because if the local DNS is not able
to resolve the query than it probably tries to ask somebody
else :-) samba probably also tries to reverse lookup your
clients name .. if you've installed a local DNS server for your
192.168 networks .. than make sure you also have the reverse
lookup working properly ... -heinrich try netwatch or sniffit
or any other watch tool to find out where the connection is
opened to ..

SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS:If your using BNC
(Coax) networking, you only need the ADSL modem, and the
Network modem, you can cable it all together. If your using
UTP (Looks like a big telephone cable) then you need crossover
cables, or a hub (Not both!!) Each nic gets its own ip
address, So, one for ADSL, one for Talking to PC1, one for PC2.
Here is how I will refer to your system. Linux Box: ADSL IP:
207.0.0.0 (ITs not, but its different enough that its not lan)
(eth2) PC1 NIC IP: 192.168.0.1 (eth0) PC2 NIC IP:
192.168.0.2 (eth1) PC1 Box: NIC 192.168.0.3 PC2 Box NIC
192.168.0.4 You'll need the following lines: route add
192.168.0.3 eth0 route add 192.168.0.4 eth1 ADSL If I recall
is treated like a regular lan, so make sure eth2 is configured
for bootp (use netcfg or netconf) Make sure your using kernel
2.2.5 or above. then in /etc/rc.d/rc.local: ipchains -P input
ACCEPT ipchains -P output ACCEPT ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQ Lastly,
Configure each windows box with its respective IP (PC1 is
192.168.0.3, PC2 is 192.168.0.4) and configure its DNS to your
ISP, its netmask should be 255.255.255.0 and its gateway should
be its matching nic (PC1 192.168.0.1, PC2 192.168.0.2)

usually. The socket waits a short period before dropping the
port. The period could be as long as a minute. There's a way to
shorten this period.. usually it depends on the proxy software
too.. See if its config file has anything regarding to SOCKET
time wait.. You can control it with
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fin_timeout echo 30 \
>/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fin_timeout To set a new timeout.. the

SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS:Question #1: Set
yourself up as browse master if no one is. Use an OS level of
65 to beat out any other clients or servers. Keep in mind that
being browse master means that everyone on the network (or at
least your subnet) will request browse lists from you. This
could be a performance hit, or may not be noticable. WINS
support doesn't really affect browsing, and all clients will
need to be setup to take advantage of it. Enter the following
in your smb.conf file. [global] browse list = Yes
browseable = Yes domain master = Yes os level = 65 lm
announce = True preferred master = Yes Question #2: Simply
use the smbclient command to your local server (the one running
Samba) and use the -L option to list shares. It will list
shares and any PC/servers in it's browse list. "smbclient -N -

SEND ONLY ANSWERS ENDORIGINAL Body IS: If your using
kernel 2.2.5 or later it should be relatively automatic,
however, make sure you disable pnp bios (As this causes
problems with the 3c509 drivers) And make sure 3com drivers
are installed as either a module or as a kernel based
installation. It is not default, so you will need to reinstall
your kernel. If your dual booting, make sure its a cold boot
into linux, and lastly, the nicest tool for configuring
interfaces is netcfg for XWindows. It should be available in
most distributions, and it will help guide you through system
configurations for the network cards.

If you configured a network dummy interface, disable it, so samba could
anounce itself over your nic. i had the same problem.

Think you are well served with 'ipchains' and 'ipmasqadm', if you use this
in a smart way.
The included proxy squid is worth a try ! :)
