Subject: Tunneling? How..
Date: Fri, 27 Aug 1999 13:03:29 +0000
Hello...
I've got this situation, I've got a couple of computers
with a 100Mbit crossover lan between:
+--------+ +--------+ |
| calvin | eth0 - eth1 | hobbes | eth0 ---+
+--------+ 100Mbit +--------+ 10Mbit |
Calvin/eth0: 192.168.2.2
Hobbes/eth1: 192.168.2.1
Hobbes/eth0: 192.168.1.1 /* altered for test-purpose */
Now I vould like Calvin to apear as 192.168.1.2 (since I've only got 2
IP-numbers on that network), and I can't just plug in another netcard
(I'ts an AT&T Globalyst 620, with 2 pci slots, one for netcard (3c905)
and one for the Matrox Millenium, with root on nfs).
So what I did was:
[root@hobbes /tmp]# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:24:C4:F8:13
inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:2414 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:11 Base address:0xfcc0
[root@calvin /tmp]# modprobe ipip
[root@hobbes /tmp]# config tunl0 192.168.1.1 up
[root@hobbes /tmp]# route add -host 192.168.1.2 gw 192.168.2.2 tunl0
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
[root@hobbes /tmp]# arp -s 192.168.1.12 00:A0:24:C4:F8:13 pub
[root@hobbes /tmp]#
[root@calvin /tmp]# modprobe ipip
[root@calvin /tmp]# ifconfig tunl0 192.168.1.2 up
[root@calvin /tmp]# route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw
192.168.2.1 tunl0
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
[root@calvin /tmp]#
This is taken from the NET-3-HOWTO (6.8.2. A tunneled host
configuration.),
but it's no surprice that it's not working (with the unreachable
errors).
Could somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong? And please don't say that I
just
didn't understand the HOWTO...

Subject: linux-based telnetrc tricks of the trade

Q: Anyone have useful ~/.telnetrc example files?
For example, how could one automate the following pop3 commands with telnet?
unix or pc% telnet mail-server pop3
> user john <==tell pop3 who you are
> pass helloWor1d <==provide your password
> stat <==get a status of mail
> list <==list your email msgs
> retr 3 <==retrieve the third msg
> dele 4 <==delete the fourth msg
> rset <==reset (undo deletion)
> uidl <==list all message id's
> quit
Or, for example, automating the execution of a command from a PC?
pc% telnet command-server
> login john
> password helloWorld
> run-this-unix-command.csh
> quit
Or, for another example, automating a simple web server client from a PC?
pc% telnet web-server 80
> GET /index.html HTTP/1.0<CR><CR>
etc.
Why am I looking for UNIX telnetrc file examples?
Every night, I try to learn something new.
One of the first steps is to stand on others' shoulders; & start from there.
Tonight, I picked the power of the "telnetrc" file to explore.
But, uh, er, um... the more I searched (e.g., www.dogpile.com ), the more
I found that, while telnet has _tons_ of commands, _nobody_ seems to have
done anything much with .telnetrc files.
The best I have is mine, which does _nothing_ useful -- just lotsa comments:
/usr/ucb/mail -s "send telnetrc" [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
Do you have a useful ~/.telnetrc example file?
Please send a good example to me so that others benefit; I'll add it to
the file above.
Thanks,
John Gianni

Subject: ROOT CONSOLE LOGIN PROBLEMS
Date: Fri, 27 Aug 1999 23:02:07 +1000
I have a RH 5.2 server up and running at the moment. I went on vacation for
about 1 1/2 weeks, and I believe one of the sysadmins mistakingly did
something to the server. At this point in time, the root account cannot
login to the server from the console itself!
The root account is normally disabled from being able to login remotely, but
I have never not been able to login from the console. Could anyone provide
me with how I might rectify this problem?
Also, I would like to get some information on websites and things to look at
for beefing up the security on my system. I would like to be have as tight a
system as possible, with the ability to monitor everything. Any suggestions
of things I can do, software updates, etc. would be great. Thanx for all the
help.

I've got a linux box with the 2.0.34 kernel. Until recently I've had
only one e-net card - a NE2000 clone. It's worked fine to connect
to my wife's win95 box to do IP masquerading through my PPP
connection.
I just got cable modem service and installed a 3c900 in addition to
the NE2000. The 3c900 is now recognized on boot, but
not the NE2000.
Both drivers are built into the kernel. I'd previously had the
following line in lilo.conf:
append="ether=5,0x240,eth0"
and the card was recognized on boot. Since now the 3c900 is
recognized first and assigned to eth0 I want the NE2000 to be picked
up as eth1, so I put the following in lilo.conf and did 'lilo -C
/etc/lilo.conf':
append="ether=11,0xfc80,eth0 ether=5,0x240,eth1"
I thought this is all it would take. What gives?
Here's the result of 'cat /proc/ioports' for people who, unlike me,
know how to interpret it:

Your friend is probably using the "tail -f /var/log/maillog" command.

-f, --follow
Loop forever trying to read more characters at the end of the file,
on the assumption that the file is growing. Ignored if reading
from a pipe. If more than one file is given, tail prints a header
whenever it gets output from a different file, to indicate which

Easily.
Since your bandwith to the internet is far smaller then 100Mb/sec and you
only filter on those incomming packets.
Even when you could have a solid 100Mb/sec throughput a P166 would be
sufficient enough. Professional firewalls run on far smaller CPU's a 486 or
even 386 are used in some firewalls. So the extra load that linux will add
is minimal.
What I don not understand is, why your fileserver is seprated by the
forewall from your clients. That filserver should be on the same netw ass
your clients. And if you are afraid of client attacks then you should
disable all your other ports except the ports used by the fileserver
protocoll. But hey its your network

People need to learn that the man pages are useful. There's a lot to
be said for an answer that points the right direction and forces you
to learn new things along the way. If I had been feeling Socratic then
I might have asked "Is there another manner of document, closer at hand
than the web of Chaos, that might enlighten you, Grasshopper?"
Something that now does need clarifying is that there is no client and no
server in a PPP connection, PPP is a peer-to-peer protocol. The "client"
of the secrets files always means the one that is being authenticated, the
authenticatee. The "server" always means the one doing the authentication,
the authenticator. It doesn't matter who initiates the connection.

You can also use a ppp interface yes.
You need atleast 2 interfaces wich is logical since you have 2 internetworks that
need seperating. And thos interfaces may be anything ippp, ppp, eth, tok etc etc

I just went through the same problem. It turns out that my problem was the
modem init string. NT's modem config has a number of check boxes that must
be being translated into modem init strings under the covers. I couldn't
find the strings anywhere, but I went back to my modem book and spent a
good half hour pouring over the AT commands.
My conclusion? After looking at the defaults, I decided to take them, with
ONE exception - negotiation.
Assuming that the AT commands are pretty much standard (I checked with
http://styx.phy.vanderbilt.edu/~fishbone/tech/extat.html), you too can take
this advise. Look in your modem book for the
AT+MS= command. The stuff after the = is of the form:
<n>,<automode>,<min>,<max>
This is the list of options for n and what each option can be used for:
n=0 V.21, 300bps
n=1 V.22, 1200bps
n=2 V.22bis, 1200/2400
n=3 V.23 bisynch 75/1200
n=9 V.32, 4800/9600
n=10 V.32bis, 4800/7200/9600/12000/
14400
n=11 V.34, 2400/4800/7200/9600/
12000/14400/16800/
19200/24000/26400/
28800
n=64 Bell 103, 300bps
n=69 Bell 212, 1200bps
n=74 V.FC, 14400/16800/
19200/24000/26400/
28800
automode is either 0 (no negotiation) or 1 (negotiation)
min and max are the allowed speeds.
Now, my modem had another mode, n=56 for KLFEX 56. However, I use v.90
since I upgraded the firmware. There was no n for v.90.
So I took a guess and set the modem string to
AT &F M0 +MS=12,1,300,57600
BAM! I connected like a shot. I think even faster than on NT. These days a
modem's defaults are set that way 'cause that's what most of the industry
uses. That's what the &F does. M0 turns off the speaker. Since my modem did
not complain about the 12 (I tried 13 just for kicks and it was an illegal
value), I'm assuming that 12 = v.90 mode. They key is probably the 1 for
negotiation allowed between your modem and the remote. The min, max values
are for completeness. Asumming you have a tru v.90 modem, try it.
Otherwise, dig up your modem book and see what the default settings are.

Does ICQ use upd?
Since you only enter udp in and outgoing for port 4000
and tcp a possible random port number (wich start from 1023 by the way).
But you don't habe a possible udp port number added.
I don't know if ICQ uses udp or tcp but in bot cases try adding thos both

Subject: "user@localhost unsafe .." says .forward. Why?
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: 27 Aug 1999 22:10:06 -0500
I would like to set up procmail and put in the line
"|exec /usr/bin/procmail"
in ~/.forward file. This is the exact line from
promail man page. My mails are being bounced back
to the sender saying user@localhost is unsafe for sending
to a program.
I have read procmailex man pages as well as two faqs on
the web but still no clue as to how to tell
paranoid .forward thing that everything is safe.
Any help would be appreciated.

This looks lie a connection time out from your Linux masquerading box.
How does this masquerading box go onto the internet, through a router? or by
dial-on-deiamnd (diald)

Subject: Mail is tweaked
Date: Fri, 27 Aug 1999 22:15:41 -0400
I need a little help here.
When I try to send mail to my own account on my box it comes back
user : [EMAIL PROTECTED] is unknown
sending mail to anyother account on the box works fine.
I have checked the /etc/aliases file nothing in there should be interfering.
I have tried killing and recreating the user account. still nothing.
I can;t figure it out.
Any help?
I am using Redhat 6.0 with sendmail version 8
please respond to my email [EMAIL PROTECTED] as this newsgroup become way to
hard to keep up with sometimes
Thanx
Jeff
