Hi,
This may be off topic. However, I have a friend who has no connection
to the Internet and resides in the out skirt of the city of Atlanta
would like to put his business on the Internet. He already has a nic
sub-domain for his company. He insists on using Linux as his main WEB,
DNS, sQL, and some other servers. What he would like to know is the
pros and cons of having a DSL connection/service provided by a local ISP
as compared to the local phone company (Bell South) that also provides a
DSL service.
Any comment is certainly a welcome.

More info:
1. when pinging while saturating the incoming connection, ifconfig
doesn't report any errors.
2. when the connection hangs, ifconfig ppp0 reports RX and frame errors
on every packet.
Here's a ping on my firewall machine to my isp while I'm saturating
the incoming connection:

Hi all,
I've been an Comcast@home subscriber for over half a year, with a RH
Linux box acting as a gateway for the rest of my network, no problems.
Now, I am considering getting another IP address. Does anyone have
experience with this, and does anyone know if I would have to have 3
NICs, or 4 in the gateway computer, etc, any other details, advantages,
disadvantages to doing this?
Thanks for any help,

I am having a problem with PPP. I believe that I have everything setup
properly to make a connection. Problem is the ISP assigns the DHCP address
of say 12.1.171.145 and the remote address (pointopoint) gets set to one of
three addresses: 12.1.171.1; 12.1.171.2 or 12.1.171.129. I have tried many
times and I always get one of these 3 addresses set. Any good reason for
this? Help quick I'm down to my last hair!!!

Telnet to the Linux box through your regular account then 'su' to root.
You should probably look into using ssh instead of telnet if you're
concerned about security. I know there's a Windows ssh client, but I
don't anymore than that.

When I configured my kernel, I enabled the following option for port
forwarding. There are other options that must be enabled that go along with
this option.
CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPPORTFW=m
Once the kernel/module is built and installed, you will have to load this
module in your startup scripts. This is a cut/paste from my rc.firewall. I
use ipmasqadm to manipulate portfw.
Hope this helps

The "srm.conf" file contains a UserDir entry that dictates how to map
"~user" urls to actual directories:
UserDir /home/*/public_html
The asterisk is simply a place-holder that will receive the user name
implied by the ~user URL. (No /etc/password check is made to verify the
user's actual home directory.) An url of
http://machine.net/~user/test.html
is therefore mapped to
/home/user/public_html/test.html
You can either edit the srm.conf file to use "homepage" as the public
directory or you can tell the users to use the preconfigured directory.
If you add users often, you may want to create an empty "public_html"
directory as part of the adduser routine.
Of course, you should never map the ~user URL to the ~user directory as it
would create a security problem by exposing all of the user's dot-files to
the public.

Telnet as a normal user and then "su -" to become root. It's the easiest
solution.
Another way to connect is using rlogin from an Xwindows client for MS
Windows. That route is much more complicated and probably not worth the
effort unless you really want to run other X applications on a MS Windows
machine.

You could try using chat, that comes with pppd.
It just does the connection stage, and will return to your

This is not really a Linux problem.... It's a shortcoming in Windows.
The Win95/Win98 Internet Control Panel & Autodial settings suck to put
it simply. The best way is to remove them and disable the autodial and
just dial up to the internet when you need to by hand...

Your connection (using telnet) is NOT secure at all. I make it a practice

Paul,
There are several ways you can do it. You can have the Linux box with
only one NIC, and one NIC in the other machine(s). They can all plug
into a hub and you can connect the cable modem to the hub via a cross
over cable or the uplink port. I didn't want to do this in my setup,
because I wanted the internal private traffic to stay just that - private.
So, I setup the IP Forwarding rules on the Linux Gateway to allow packets
to be passed through the machine on over to the other interface.
Surprisingly, it worked. So now my setup is sort of like this
Outside World -> Linux Box -> Box with Second IP
It works, and I have the capability to firewall ports on the windows
machine that has the second IP address. I've been happy with that, but
pretty dissatisfied with some other, non-related aspects of the service.
I'm also using @Home, through TCI though. I don't suspect that your
Cable TV provider makes much difference since it's all @Home-Spec equipment.
If you want any more specific info about my setup, feel free to e-mail
me. (remove "nospam." from my email address)

Check /var/log/messages
If you see a line like:

Why don't you just use a sound card that is easily supported. My cheapo
cs4232 based card works just fine.

I also had the same problem when I first set up my DNS and tried to
access it from another computer. To get it to work I had to set up
reverse name lookup on the server. It seems that to use the DNS from
another computer it first does a reverse lookup on the IP for the
server. There may be another way to get it to work, but that is how I
solved the problem.

As I mentioned in another post, I had the exact same problem. I had to
set up reverse lookup for the IP number of the server.
