Do you have a tape drive on hawkwynd, or do you simply plan on dumping
everything in a disk file? You may want to look at the smbtar command,
which simplifies backup tasks like this a bit, though at the cost of
giving you access to fewer of tar's options. I suggest that you futz
around with smbtar (or smbmount and tar) until you get the results you
like, then just dump all the commands you used in a file and make it
executable. That's your script. You can then drop that script in
/etc/cron.daily to have that script run every night at (IIRC) 1:00 AM. If
you want to set it up to do a weekly backup and incremental backups other
days, you could create two scripts and learn a bit more about cron
scheduling.

I'm trying to "share" an NFS file system from a Sun workstation running

Subject: IP forwarding problems in 2.0.31
Date: 16 Aug 1999 19:40:41 GMT
Hi folks
I have an IP forwarding problem (I *think*) in an old 2.0.31 kernel. I am
using it because a previous project built a "Wide Area Link Emulator"
(WALE) traffic shaper/bandwidth limiter into it.
(http://ece.iisc.ernet.in/netlab/)
It is for an IP telephony project - investigating the effects of a poor
network on the H.323 protocol suite.
I have set up the following in the laboratory:
Linux 2.0.31 router
______________________
| |
| |
Host | |
Host
______ |____ ip forward ____ |
________
| | |eth1 | ----> XX! --->| eth0 |
| |
|__ether|<----------------->|____|_______
____|_____|<--------------->|ether___|
/_______\ 192.168.1.4 192.168.1.1
/_______\
192.168.1.2 3C905 3C595
192.168.1.3
IP Number HWaddress Card
192.168.1.2 00:10:4b:42:cd:ec 3Com905 removable on the pci
192.168.1.4 00:c0:4f:4b:9f:7b 3Com905 on the motherboard*
192.168.1.1 00:60:97:2e:27:c3 3Com595 removable on the pci
192.168.1.3 00:c0:4f:c9:83:e8 3Com** on the motherboard
* it's a 905, but I needed the up-to-the-minute driver from Donald Becker
to run it, so maybe its a slightly different chipset or sthg
** I cant remember what that one is but it's a good one, and works fine.
A while ago, I got a RH6 2.2.5 kernel routing properly, so I became
familiar with the ins & outs of the routing & arp table.
The problem with this 2.0.31 kernel is that it will not forward packets
across from 192.168.1.4 --> 192.168.1.1 and vice versa.
>From 192.168.1.2 (Windoze) can ping 192.168.1.4 but no further
>From 192.168.1.3 (Windoze) I can ping 192.168.1.1 but no further
>From the router shell I can ping everything. (when its all set up - see
below)
so my goal is to get a ping from 192.168.1.3 to get across to 192.168.1.2 &
vice versa - then I can run MS Netmeeting on the hosts, and control the QoS
with the bandwidth limiter on the router kernel. I have ipv4 going, and
also ip_forward seems to be running (at least its echoing 1).
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or what I'm not doing at all to get
this working! please! This project's got to be finished this week!!
Also, I am a bit perplexed (& vy interested!) by this: I do not actually
need to do any arp entries on the router:
After booting, I can ping eth0. of course. (that's all I can reach though)
entering the route to 192.168.1.3 with #route add -host 192.168.1.3 dev
eth0
then I can ping 192.168.1.3
I have to insmod the latest 3c59x.o driver for eth1, and ifconfig it up,
and ifconfig its address to 192.168.1.4 (this is all OK)
But I cannot ping 192.168.1.4 yet!
entering a route to 192.168.1.4 with #route add -host 192.168.1.4 dev eth1
only *then* I can ping it (192.168.1.4)
And of course setting up a route to 192.168.1.2 with
#route add -host 192.168.1.2 dev eth1
allows me to reach that one (192.168.1.2)!!!
the system seems to take quite a while for the first ping to go through -
like it is having a bit of trouble looking up the hardware address of the
NICs.
but it seems to enter the right arp settings itself - although they are not
flagged "permanent". - and it "forgets" them after a while but a ping
restores them again....
Anyone that can explain this, I would be interested!
But my real cry for help is how to get IP forwarding running properly on
this kernel!!! please! anyone!! help!
I'd be glad to help anyone with any other queries, I have a *bit* of
experience on routing!
Thanks
Tris (pretty much still a newbie :-< )
ps - The problem is not caused by the WALE modifications on the 2.0.31
kernel - I have tried to do the same thing on a RH5.2 kernel v2.0.36 with
no modifications, and get the same problems. I *think* the problem is just
something I am not configuring right in the kernel, but I am pretty lost
for what it is!

Subject: Samba problems
Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 19:25:55 +0200
I have installed Redhat v60 on a P100 and I would like to
use this pc as a Primair Domain Controller and fileserver
with Samba. My networksituation:
PC001 (WinNT) ---
|
PC002 (WinNT) ---+ --- PC250 (Linux)
|
PC003 (WinNT) ---
When I try to connect the PC001 with the primair domain
server (PC250) at the network configuration, I got the
message that there is no computeraccount for this computer
at the domain server. I tried the name of the workgroup and
the ip-address of the server. When I make PC001 as a member
of the known workgroup, I can logon and I got access with
the Explorer to my homedirectory at the Linux server. Who
can tell me how I can setup Samba as the PDC??
Unfortunately I have a problem with logon at the workgroup.
When I restart PC250 and PC001 and I try to logon from PC001
to PC250 with account AA, I get a connection without
problems. When I disconnect from PC001 to PC250 and I make a
new connection with account BB, I get the message that the
password is incorrect. When I execute command "./samba
restart" at PC250 and I try to logon again with account BB,
I can get a connection. Why can I make only a new connection
when I restart Samba??
I send the /etc/smb.conf:
# Begin /etc/smb.conf

I have a small office with 4 Windows 98 clients using microsoft mail. We
use Outlook but can't share contacts or calendaring functions because we
don't have a dedicated server. The Hardware/Software required for Exchange
or Dominos is way out of my price range (we are a non-profit).
Is it possible for Linux to work as a network server, and on a slower
machine (P90, 16MB RAM) so I don't have to buy a new one?
I really like the look of Notes R5 and have considered making a switch to
that client. Does it work with Linux?
Just how many nights am I going to have to spend at the office to make this

Subject: External ISDN TA with RH6
Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 16:06:06 -0400
I just got a 3Com external ISDN TA, and have it connected to my RedHat
6.0 box via a high speed (460Kb/s) PCI serial card. I am running kernel
2.2.5, with ip_masq. Right now I'm using the regular pppd, and it seems
to be a bit slow (like 10KB/s) both locally and on the masq'ed machines.
I used to use a Cisco router connected to my lan via ethernet, and with
stac compression I would get around 14KB/s all the time.
I have tried installing the isdn4k-3.0Beta package, but the binary says
to recomplie it, and the source dies when I try to complie. I'm not even
sure if I need this, is this package just drivers for internal TA's, or
will ipppd and the /dev/ippp, /dev/ttyI, and /dev/isdn stuff help me?
Does anyone know where to get a binary rpm to that will work with a
stock RH6 system?
I have the serial port speed set to 230400 (with setserial baud_base),
and have the same speed in my /etc/ppp/options file. I'm using CTS/RTS
flow control, and have tried XON/XOFF, and no flow control with the same
results.
The TA also has a USB connection, and I can buy a PCI USB card, but I
don't think that USB support is stable enough yet, but I could be wrong.
Anyone have any luck with USB devices? Should I give that a try?
Could the slowness be because I'm using asyncppp over a sync line? Would
ipppd help there?
Someone (who speaks english :)) has to have done this before
successfuly, could that someone please help me out?
Thanks,

Hello,
You can share your INternet connection via NT box, but it's not easy and
it's not free!
You should consider making your Linux box the Internet gateway.

The message logs are usually in /var/log, but all may not be in the
same log. To get all the chat and pppd messages in one file you can add
daemon.* /var/log/ppp-log
to /etc/syslog.conf, create the log file with " touch /var/log/ppp-log ",
and do " kill -HUP `pidof syslogd` " to make syslogd read the changed
/etc/syslog.conf file. At one time the two entries on the line had to
be separated by a Tab, YMMV.
Make sure that pppd has the "debug" option in ppp-on . You can extract
the messages with the method in my signature. After debugging is over
and PPP is successful you'll likely want to remove or comment out the
line in syslog.conf .

It will work. I'd bet that you'll want to at least double the RAM, but
that depends on how much you use it.

There is a beta version of R5 for Linux, but I don't think you're going
to get it running with only 16M RAM on any platform. I'm sure IBM will
have information on how much memory it requires.

Depends on how familiar you are with Linux/UNIX. There's a fairly high
learning curve for some aspects. I'd reccomend something like RedHat,
SUSE, or Caldera for ease of use. I'd suggest giving it a try though,
in the worst case you'll only be out the price of the CD, which can be
very inexpensive (http://www.cheapbytes.com)

Subject: Help with Samba
Date: 16 Aug 1999 15:15:16 -0500
I am trying to set up file sharing with Samba and be able to access the
sharing with a Windows 95/98 computer.
I am completely new to this, what do I need to do?
Is there special software that I need to access this sharing with the
Windows 95/98 computer?
I am using Linuxconf to try to set this up on the Linux server.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
