Collisions is not an error condition. They are a normal function of how
ethernet works.
The original shared-bus Ethernet design (10Base2 and 10Base5) has
multiple hosts all using a single wire to transmit and receive on. When
a host wants to transmit, it listens for an empty carrier (meaning
nobody else is transmitting), then it transmits. Sometimes, two hosts
end up transmitting at the same time, and both packets get clobbered -
which is a collision. When a collision happens, each host waits for a
random period of time, then listens again for an empty carrier.
If you're using 10Base5 (thick Ether) or 10Base2 (Thinnet), collisions
happen all the time, and there's nothing you can do about them. If you
get so many that it begins to noticeably impact performance, then you
need to reduce the number of hosts on your Ethernet segment - breaking
your segment into two or more with a layer-2 switch (or bridge) is the
usual solution.
With 10BaseT and 100BaseT, hosts are attached to hubs. Hubs (especially
those with full-duplex capability) will greatly reduce the possibility
of collisions, by buffering the data coming in on its ports, but they
can still happen - especially under conditions of heavy load. A dumb
unmanaged hub (aka a repeater) that doesn't do any buffering may not do
much to prevent collisions.
As with shared-bus media, if you find that you're getting so many
collisions that performance is impacted, you probably want to break your
Ethernet segment into multiple segments - replacing one or more of your
hubs with layer-2 switches is the usual solution.
Getting back to your specific situation, how long has your system been
up? My system (which shares a dumb hub with three other computers and
an uplink to a switch) shows about 1000 collisions, with an uptime of 6
days. I don't consider an average of 7 collisions an hour to be a
significant problem.

Subject: slow telnet (not a dns/resolve issue)
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 1999 15:13:41 -0700
I have recently bought a "dedicated server" from an isp
and the telnet access to the machine is very slow("blind"
typing, slow echo of characters typed in).
I have accounts on other shared machines(virutal server) and
they are much, much faster - just about as fast as being on
the actual console of a machine.
Is there some trick to setting up telnet to respond faster
(i.e. echoing of characters?). The box is running redhat
5.2 with all updates.
One thing I noticed in particular is that when I ping the
fast hosts, it's TTL is high - 246 while the slow hosts
TTL is low - about 55. Would this matter any? How can I
change this?
Thanks for any help.

Hi
I'm looking for some data on multicast commands. According to the

find provisions for compiling multicast into the RedHat or S.u.S.E. kernel.
Can anyone here lead me in the right direction?

Thanks a ton. Yes, the linuxconf seems to be using the pppd. I am not
at home now, soooo. That should cover the disconnect. Any ideas how to
start it up from the command line?

Subject: PPTP linux client
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 1999 22:24:22 GMT
Greetings,
I am trying to tunnel using the PPTP client
for Linux. However, it does not appear to
be connecting right. I am a pppd novice and
have tried a few different things without
any luck. I am running a fresh install of
RedHat 6 and have compiled the pptp client.
At the command line, I am entering:
pptp my.tunnel.server.com debug user mikeb
require-chap
In /var/log/messages:
Aug 24 17:12:14 myhost (unknown)[7849]:

Aug 24 17:12:44 myhost pppd[7964]: Connect time
0.5 minutes.
Aug 24 17:12:45 myhost pppd[7964]: Exit.
In chap-secrets, I have:
# client server secret IP addresses
mikeb * mypass *
I'm guessing the problem is that the PPTP server
isn't sending back the IP address information
although I could be wrong.
Any thoughts? E-mailed reply appreciated, but
I will be checking the newsgroup as well.
Thanks,
Mike

This is about totally wide open to any kind of even moderate probe.
First, the udp is wide open, when there are probably no udp services you
ever want to offer the world, and second the icmp is wide open, which is
like a 'kick me' sign for port probes.
I personally like to deny and log all icmp except ping, pong, and
network unreachable. Do a 'ipchains -h icmp' and note all the stuff
labeled redirect and router. These are ways for people to reconfigure
your routing tables for you. Thank you, no. At the very least those
services should all be logged and denied, although dropping everything
and allowing only a few icmp services is safer for most sites.
When it comes to firewalling I'm a devout fundamentalist paranoid, lay
preacher of the sermon "cover your ass." I think the example is very
clearly written, but way too permissive.

Hi,
I have a RedHat 6.0 system with 2.2.11 kernel. The machine is set up as
a MASQ gateway with DSL link to the internet. Apache, FTP and Telnet
daemons work great. I can access them from the internet and my LAN with
no problem.
The problem is that when I try to run other services such as
phonepatch, fsgs daemon listing at certain port (1084 and 6112) I can
access them from the gateway machine only but not from my LAN and
Internet. This problem was no there when I was using RedHat 5.2. Does
anybody know what would cause this problem and how I should fix it? I
suspect that its related to some new security enhancment of Redhat 6.0.
Please help!

Subject: eth0: XMT status = 0xffff8841

I get these errors when transferring data between the Linux server and
Linux/win98/win95 clients.
eth0: XMT status = 0xffff8841
and several times the error codes 0xffff8845 and 0xffff88c1 are thrown in
the bunch.
Config:
Stampede Linux .89 (distro should not matter)
Kernel: 2.2.11 (happed with entire 2.2.x series, didn't try 2.0)
eth0: Intel Etherexpress Pro/10+ (tried several of same type card, same
prob)
CPU: Celeron 333 128mb ram 8.4gb hard drive.
Hub: 3Com office connect 8tpo
what could cause these errors? It is a big deal since all transmission
between server and client cease for a period of about 4 seconds after
receiving one of these messages and have a very bad effect on internet
connectivity and file transfers.
I have exhausted any solution I could find on my own.

Your ISP should provide you with IP block (you can't get 50, but you can get
60 usable!).
Normally ISPs rent ip addresses to customers, unless you are T1 or higher
bandwidth customer, than you can get IP block as a part of your contract.
Also you need to be prepared to explain why you need that many IP addresses
to you ISP.
And when you change your ISP, you lose addresses!
Good luck!

Postfix sticks that header in, and either change it or get rid of it.
It's probably some configuration change I made in postfix, for a
masquerade or something, but I don't know yet.
If you have any ideas, I'd appreciate it, if you're familiar with
Postfix...

Having done dialin to one NT workstation RAS Server from various Win9x
workstations I would warn you that your shares and netbios provided functions
proabably won't work over dialup leaving you with TCPIP clients to get
around. If I am wrong and your shares do work, I would grafitified,
encourage and elated to hear about it.

Subject: Firewall Rules
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 1999 19:02:27 GMT
I've seen this posted here before...
I'm setting up my firewall using Linux and I'm having a bit of a
conceptual problem with determining which basic rules I need to
implement to allow communication with services like DNS, mail, etc.
I've read the IPCHAINS HowTo and, while I can get access to the
services, it is only by completely opening the in and out rules.
Could someone please post a copy of a set of firewall rules that cover
the basic services, without completely opening the wall?
Thanks!
