Hi,

who can help me? I have following setup:

localnet with several winsucks 9x machines.

linuxbox (SuSE 6.1):
localnet on eth0 (ne2k-pci)
IP 192.168.100.10, netmask 255.255.255.0
DNS 192.168.100.10 (full functional with forwarding to ISP's DNS)
firewall with IPchains
IPmasquerading hides local net from internet
internet connection is ISDN with SyncPPP (Ippp0)
everything is set up very basic using standard scripts supplied by suse.

I want to replace the ISDn with an A200 cable modem.
trouble is, these suckers are the only cable company in AMsterdam (NL) and
they use DHCP for configuring
cablemodem connections.
When I tell YaST (SuSE setup tool to use DHCP client facilities, bang my
network is gone, only eth0 gets initialised als using dhcp.
my local net totally vanishes and only when I plug the cable modem in eth0,
i get an internet connection.
ETH1 (3c503) which should house the cablemodem connection, isn't set up at
all....

anybody got experience on this?

We are having weird problems, too.  FTP-ing or rcp-ing large files
between SGI and Linux (RH6.0) systems sometimes results in the
files being corrupted (detected via MD5 checksums).

I'm trying to access the NFS-exported files on my Linux machine from my

Are these still being made?  Every 10/100 hub I've seen in stores have a
2-port layer-2 switch inside to allow the two sides to bridge the 10M
and 100M segments.

(I say layer-2 switch, because routers are sometimes referred to as
layer-3 switches in product literature.  I prefer the less ambiguous
terms repeater, bridge, and router instead of hub, layer-2 switch and
layer-3 switch.)

The big deal will depend on how much of the 100M side is utilized.  A PC
shouldn't have any problem keeping up with 2 or 3 10M Ethernet
interfaces.  But it is highly unlikely that it will be able to service a
100M interface at line rate.

Part of the cost of a switch is the dedicated hardware that can actually
keep up with 100Mbps per port.  Assuming that the switch is
non-blocking, of course.  Blocking switches exist - they use memory
buffers to hold packets when the data rate exceeds what the chips can
handle.  But they will start dropping packets if the overload persists
long enough to fill the buffer.  Non-blocking switches (especially those
with large numbers of ports) can be expensive devices.

All true, up to the level of control.  You can stop certain types of
packets from crossing the router.  But you can't prevent them from
traversing individual subnets unless you give each host a direct
connection to the router.  Because of the limited number of Ethernet
cards that you can install in one PC, this usually isn't a viable
option.  (Hardware routers that can route and filter packets on dozens
of ports at once exist.  They're not cheap.)

I wouldn't ever use the word "route" in conjunction with a bridge.
Routing is a buzzword that always refers to layer-3 protocols (like IP
and IPX).  Bridging is the buzzword that refers to layer-2 protocols
(like Ethernet and TokenRing.)

The advantage of a bridge is that it needs little or no configuration.
It automatically learns the Ethernet MAC addresses of each computer
attached to it, by snooping the headers of every Ether frame is
receives.

Bridging should use less CPU power than routing, because they do less
processing per packet.  Bridge code has only to receive the packet,
compare the destination Ethernet address against the bridging table
(which it learns by snooping Ether frames), and either retransmit it out
a port, flood it to all ports, drop it, or send it up the protocol stack
to a local application.

Routing software, on the other hand, does a lot more.  It has to look
into the Ethernet packet, deterime if the layer-3 protocol is something
it supports (IP is usually supported, but other protocols may also be),
then it has to look up the destination address against a table that is
usually more complex than a bridging table, then it has to rewrite the
packet's header (decrement the TTL, and generate a new layer-2 header)
before transmitting the result.  For a multiprotocol router (that might
handle IPX, AppleTalk, and other protocols), there must be separate sets
of tables and processing modules for each protocol.  And all this
assumes that the routing tables are statically configured - if you're in
a situation where routes may change, then you also have to run routing
protocol code like RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, or BGP to keep your routing tables
synchronized with reality.

Both bridging and routing get significantly more complicated if they are
to properly support multicasting.

Although this group really isn't appropriate for a detailed discussion
of routing, if you have more questions, feel free to ask.

If you're using the 2.2.x kernel, there are simple APIs present.  You
can do all this through the socket interface.

Here are some man pages (in alphabetical order) to get you started:

        man getsockopt
        man ip
        man packet
        man raw
        man 2 socket
        man 4 socket

It's possible with earlier versions of the kernel as well, but it's not
nearly as easy.

What happens if you take down the interface and restart dhcpcd?  In
particular do you, in fact, get a new IP address or do you get the
same IP address.  Of course even if you get the same IP address, it
could be that your lease on it expired and, as such, it is invalid.

# this will take down your cable-modem link and bring it back up
ifconfig eth1 down
killall dhcpcd
dhcpcd -h terrence eth1

This happens to me too, but it's not just DNS, it's ping as well.  I
iether can't ping the gateway or I get ping times of 3000ms or more.
When that happens, I just restart eth1 and it goes away.  I wonder
what would cause it in the first place.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I also get the same problem ocasionally
with my local net eth0.  Except it doesn't use DHCP.  I suspect a
kernel bug of some sort.

Hi,

I'm trying to configure a Firewall securised and giving access to the
Internet to my local network.

Here is a part of my rc.firewall file:
#!/bin/sh
# patch for the FTP Masq
modprobe ip_masq_ftp

# flush everything
ipfwadm -F -f
ipfwadm -O -f
ipfwadm -I -f

# default policy : deny
ipfwadm -F -p deny

ipfwadm -O -p deny

# masquerade lines
ipfwadm -F -a accept -m -S 172.16.6.0/255.255.255.0 -D 0.0.0.0/0

# other lines regarding the firewall security... (not put in this message).

It works if I put accept as default policy, but if I put deny, my masquerade
won't work.
I must have forgotten some more lines in this configuration to make my
masquerade work.

Please, if someone could give me the lines which are missing. I have already
looked at some Howtos, but they don'y give me a working config. Need

...most likely, your Bios will assign the card address and IRQ
automatically (depending on the card slot location). Therefore, the
"options" line may not be necessary (my system works without it). 

If you want to use the "options" line, I suggest you make sure you use
the correct address and interrupt: look at the file /proc/pci and
search for a line that starts with "ethernet controller". This line
and the next lines show you where RH6.0 has found your card.

IP 192.168.100.10, netmask 255.255.255.0
DNS 192.168.100.10 (full functional with forwarding to ISP's DNS)
firewall with IPchains
IPmasquerading hides local net from internet
internet connection is ISDN with SyncPPP (Ippp0)
everything is set up very basic using standard scripts supplied by suse.

I want to replace the ISDn with an A200 cable modem.
trouble is, these suckers are the only cable company in AMsterdam (NL) and
they use DHCP for configuring
cablemodem connections.
When I tell YaST (SuSE setup tool to use DHCP client facilities, bang my
network is gone, only eth0 gets initialised als using dhcp.
my local net totally vanishes and only when I plug the cable modem in eth0,
i get an internet connection.
ETH1 (3c503) which should house the cablemodem connection, isn't set up at
all....

anybody got experience on this?

Is this possible?

Here is the scenario I'd like:

    Internet
       |
       |
     modem 
       |
 +-------------+                 +-------------+
 |             |                 |             |
 |   Box A     |                 |   Box B     |
 |  Redhat 6   |                 |   Redhat 6  |
 |   Apache    |-NIC---Hub---NIC-|   Netscape  |
 |    PHP      |                 |             |   
 |   MySQL     |                 |   Web Files |
 |   Netscape  |                 |             |
 |   VMWare    |                 +-------------+
 |     |       |
 | +---------+ |
 | |  Box C  | |
 | |(virtual)| |
 | |  Win 98 | |
 | |    IE   | |
 | +---------+ |
 +-------------+


Now, I'd like it so that when Box B or Box C requests a page, it will be
served from Box A's Apache server over the LAN. I'd like the web files
to be stored on Box B's drive (and accessed through NFS or something), 
because it has a lot more room on its hard drive.

When Box A requests the same page with its browser, I want it to be
served from the internet.

Boxes B and C should never connect to the internet.

The same address needs to be used for all 3 browsers so that I don't
need two different scripts (one for the web & one for at home), i.e.

http://www.bigmweb.com/foo/bar.php3

I'd copy the directory structure of my provider's drive on Box A (with a
share from Box B) and set up everything the same way.

I need to clarify something.  The password does not work when trying to 
pop mail.  My inetd.conf has POP3 enabled and it was working fine.  I 
don't remember making any changes but sometimes people here make a subtle 
change without saying anything.  Does anyone know why pop3 wouldn't 
authenticate a valid password?

Date: Mon, 30 Aug 1999 18:39:05 -0700

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting my ethernet pcmcia card to work under linux. I
wonder if any one can help me diagnose the problem.

The card is a 3com 3CCFE575B-DT Fast Etherlink XL
Linux Kernel: 2.2.5-15
pcmci-cs version 3.0.14

The system reports no problems but the card does not work. Card works on
other systems and under win98 in the same system. I set up the IRQ to 9,
which is the same value I used under win98.

All drivers are loading, the network.opts is properly configured and the
network script is properly executing. The machines gives two high beeps as
if everything was ok.

ifconfig command shows all configuration is OK, but it shows some rather
high numbers in the overruns and carrier fields. For example:
overruns: 130, carrier:30

Thanks for any help
Jesus

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When upgrading my RedHat 6.0 to kernels 2.2.10 and 2.2.12, the
NFS Daemon does not load properly.

At boot, I get FAILED, and when trying to run /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd
manually, I get;
nfssvc: Function not implemented

NFS runs properly under the default RH6.0 kernel 2.2.5-15 kernel.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

This problem exists on 2 seperate machines.  A PII 400, 512MB RAM w/
RAID 5 (AMI MegaRAID), and a Dual PII 333, 256MB RAM, IDE.

Thanx in advance!
