Subject: FTP client is very slow to transfer large files
Date: Tue, 10 Aug 1999 20:23:54 -0400
Hello,
I'm running SuSE 6.0 with linux 2.0.36. I have very slow transfer rates
using ftp between this linux box and HP workstations attached to this
network. This machine has a 100Mbit ethernet. The problem arises if I
start the ftp session here or in the remote HP machine.
Notoriously, when I use netscape to connect and do the transfer, it is
in the order of hundreds of kbytes per sec.
I've seen posts about similar problems with Samba connections and ftp,
but no real answer I could use.
Could someone give some suggestions? Please Cc: to my mail box too.

The goal here is to avoid messing with the cyrus installation at all.
I've tried several things, but nothing seems to work. I've used a
wrapper that comes with the RH rpm; I've modified that wrapper, I've
changed the execute permissions on /usr/cyrus/bin/deliver to be a+rx.
Nothing works. Procmail runs, as far as I can tell, but there are no
error messages, and mail doesn't get deliverd, using either deliver or
the wrapper. However, if I run procmail by hand, as I did above, then
the message gets delivered appropriately. But it won't deliver, if the
message comes in via postfix. Which I don't understand, because
procmail runs with the same permissions in both cases.
This is really annoying. Surely there must be a reason why procmail and
the wrapper work, if run directly from the command line, but doesn't
work when it's called by the MTA

It's not clear what this means, you should post logs rather than attempt
a narrative. Here's a wild guess though. The address you see is the
address for the remote, i.e., the ISP. In that case use the pppd option
:192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.1 should work as the remote address for
the PPP interface.
I don't kppp so but you should be able to put that in /etc/ppp/options.

I am hoping someone here can help me. I have a host name that is part
of my registered domain that was originally mapped to an IP address, say
1.2.3.4. I changed providers and it should now be pointing to 5.6.7.8.
When I do nslookup on the hostname, however, it still returns 1.2.3.4
The DNS entries for db.mydomain.com and the ptr record in the
in-addr.arpa file are both correct. What could be the problem?

Hi
Have a problem with XDM or XDMCP
It has something to do with resolve of name to IP address:
Here is an excerpt from my log file:
X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for p200.
xdm error (pid 863): server open failed for p200.:0, giving up
xdm error (pid 717): Display p200.:0 cannot be opened
xdm error (pid 717): Display p200.:0 is being disabled
Int the second row one can see that it tries to open display
p200.:0 this is wrong it should be
p200:0 or p200.kussered.net:0 or 10.0.0.126:0.
nslookup
works
p200 gives 10.0.0.126 etc
p200.kussered.net is a windows 98 machine running an xserver software.
Yes I have tried other xserver software. and other machines
Any suggestions ?

Date: Tue, 10 Aug 1999 21:31:11 -0400
OK, here is my problem. For the past while I have had a LAN connecting my
parents Win95 machine to my Win98 macine. The 95 machine has a connection
to the phone line, and I have been using a Proxy server to connect to that
machine and use the net at the same time. On Sunday I installed Red Hat 6.0
on my machine. My problem is that I want to connect to the internet using
Linux through my parent's machine like I have always done, but I can't find
any info on how to do it. My ISP dynamically allocates our IP address, so
that complicates the matter. Basically, here's the setup:
__________ __________
| Parent's | | My Comp |
INTERNET | Comp | | (Running |
<-------- | (Dynamic | ---HUB--- | Linux or |
| IP) Win95| | Win98) |
|__________| |__________|
I realize that IP-Masquirading exists, but that only works with the Linux
machine as the server, i want it as the client. I also know about proxy
servers, like squid, but they are too large for a 2 computer network, and
again, use Linux as the server. Any help would be greatly appreciated:-)

There's a much easier way, if they're never going to log on "for

First of all, is it so necessary to use netx? It's obsolete now
and has a lot of problems. So, try to use vlm, you can get it
freely available at ftp://ftp.novell.com But if you have to
use netx anyway, i need to know exactly what error message
gives netx in your case. Probably, it cant't find server? Then
check the server's frame type. Are you shure it's Ethernet_II?
(by default mars_nwe uses Ethernet_802.2). And tha last
suggestion: in your net.cfg there is a line "Link Drive N2000".
It should look like "Link Driver N2000", or is it just a
misprint? Good luck.

Subject: IPCHAINS Question
Date: Wed, 11 Aug 1999 12:24:00 +1000
I have a problem setting up IPCHAINS. Before I go into detail of the
problem, the following diagram details how the machines are linked.
(Curse outlook express - it won't let me use fixed pitch while composing
this unless I use HTML, which I am sure would get me flamed big time - I
hope things line up enough to be understandable)
+----------+
| 1.1.1.1 | PC1 - Computer with ISDN link to internet "1.1.1.1" is a valid
internet address
+----------+
|
| PPP 33.6k link
|
+---------------+
| 1.1.1.2 | PC2 - Linux Computer acting as gateway to LAN - 1.1.1.2
is its ppp address
|192.168.1.1| 192.168.1.1 is its ethernet address
+---------------+
||
|| LAN - 192.168.1.0/24
||
+---------------+
|192.168.1.2| PC3 - This is the computer I am trying to reach.
+---------------+
OK. PC2 currently has in its ipchains a set of masquerading rules:
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQ
The policy of the Chain forward is DENY
That is working no problems - all the PC's on the 192.168.1.0/24 LAN can
access the net without any hassles.
I have an application on PC3 that I need to telnet to (on port 9999) from
PC1. PC3 also needs to be able to initiate a connection to PC1 - this is
working through the masquerade. Basically what I was planning on doing was
setting up IPCHAINS on PC2 so that any connections made to 1.1.1.2 port 9999
from 1.1.1.1 would be redirected to 192.168.1.2 port 9999. This way PC1
would think it is connecting to PC2, but PC3 would get the connection.
I tried the following:
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s 1.1.1.1/32 9999 -d 1.1.1.2/32 9999 -j REDIRECT
192.168.1.2 9999
This is giving me errors just saying to use ipchains -h or ipchains --help.
I have tried the ipchains howto, and I can't work out much from it - it has
lots of help for blocking access to the local machine but can't find
anything that helps with sort of thing.
I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone can offer on this. Are
there any better resources than the ipchains howto on how to use some of its
features?

I might be reading your note incorrectly, but you should set up your other
computers to use the 192.168.0.1 address as their gateway. You should have
a script that issues (along with a lot of other setup stuff) the following
commands:
/sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK} netmask ${NETMASK} eth1
/sbin/route add default gw ${GATEWAY} netmask 0.0.0.0 metric 1
where ${NETWORK} is your IP address ANDed with your netmask, and ${NETMASK}
is the netmask given you by your cable modem provider. The ${GATEWAY}, of
course, would be the address of the gateway given you by your provider.
In general, I would need the following to start really debugging your
problem:
The contents of the following files:
host.conf
hosts
networks
resolv.conf
rc.inet1 (or whatever RH uses to configure the NICs, etc.)
The output from these commands:
route -F
ifconfig
Posted and emailed.
To send me email, replace 'nospam' with 'home'.
