Something along the lines of
ipchains -A forward -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0.0.0.0/0 :21 -j REJECT
might do the trick. not sure on the exact syntax (no colon?)
that will cause ipchains to stop any packets destined for port 21, and you
should probably do the same for port 20 (ftp-data)

Subject: TCP/IP Programming Mystery
Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 19:27:42 GMT
Here's one for all of you TCP/IP sockets gurus:
I've written some sockets code (in C) that implements a simple
client-server application. The client sends 2000 byte buffers to the
server over a TCP connection.
When I run the client and server on different machines connected on an
Ethernet (both with MTU=1500), the server's 'recv' call sometimes
returns a byte count of 1460 bytes instead of 2000. Looking at
Ethernet activity with snoop shows that the 2000 byte send gets
fragmented into two IP packets: 1460 bytes and 540 bytes. The 'recv'
call is obviously returning 1460 because that's the size of the first
fragment. What I don't understand is why doesn't 'recv' wait until it
gets the second fragment and return a count of 2000? (The socket is
*not* a non-blocking socket.)
When I run both the client and server on the same box, this problem
doesn't occur, probably because the loopback device has an MTU > 2000
bytes.
I doubt this problem is specific to Linux, because I've moved the code
to two Solaris boxes and see the exact problem.
Anyone have any idea what might me happening here?

Subject: PPP problem... Am I seeing MSCHAP?
Date: Thu, 02 Sep 1999 16:31:05 GMT
I don't have a problem "connecting" to the ppp server. What's
happening is after the connection I don't get asked for username,
and password. The server seems to send aprox. 26 unknown characters (the
characters don't show up in /var/log/messages). After this a prompt
appears asking for a terminal server password. That's where I'm stuck.
I'm assuming that MSCHAP specifies some other type of handshaking that
I'm not following. If this is MSCHAP how do I set things up to work.
If not... any ideas?
Cheers,
Zach

Well.. the way I do it is to have my machine change its hostname every time
I dial up. In my setup (RedHat), /etc/ppp/ip-up is passed as one of the
arguments the IP address of your new connection. I just do a DNS lookup on
that, capture the reply (through a little awk scripting), set the hostname
to that, and restart sendmail.

Subject: The best way of sharing data between a win98 server and linux server!
Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 20:28:49 GMT
I have a win98 server and Linux server installed on the same hard disk
disk(on 2 different primary partitions of course). I want to
create a third partition for storing data. This data partition
must be accessible to both servers. For example, if I run win98
server, all clients (include win98 server itself) will be able
to access to this data partition. On the other hand, if I decide
to use Linux as the server instead of win98 server, I want all
the clients pc (including linux server) to be able to access to
this data disk as well.
Can this be achieved? If so, what's is the best way of doing it?
What partition type should be used?

Hello,
Could anybody tell me how to configure a local mailbox in Netscape 4.5?
Mail is gathered in var/spool/mail/vic and Netscape uses
~/vic/.netscape/nsmail/Inbox as mailbox. Making 'Inbox' a (symbolic or
hard-)link to var/spool/mail/vic only works temporaryly because Netscape
seems to overwrite it with an ordinary (empty) Inbox-file.
How to tell Netscape where to look for my local mail!?

I would personally use the Windows 98 FAT filesystem to solve the problem. The reason
for this being that Linux AND Windows can read FAT filesystems, allowing you to
acheive the dual-boot and dual-server solution you were requiring...You can set up a
Samba server on your Linux box and share the partition so that your Linux box looks
just like your Windows box, thereby creating a seamless solution that you are looking
for.

If you need to find out programmatically I believe most people
use an ip-up script to call ipconfig to get the ip address assigned.
If you just want to find out at user level and are connecting using
a ppp-on script there's a tk script called tkppp you can download
for use in XWindows that shows the ip address in it's window when
it makes the connection. It also has a little "keep-alive" pinger
built in, so it's pretty nice little utility.
You have to have tcl scripting support and XWindows of course.

Demand needs the options shown below, plus the other options you have.
pppd 192.168.0.1:192.168.0.2 ipcp-accept-local ipcp-accept-remote demand ...
The reserved IP addresses are placeholders and the choices are not
normally critical. The exception is an ISP that doesn't like the
customers specifying anything other than 0.0.0.0 in an IPCP request for
an IP address to use. Then you may need ppp-2.3.9 in order to specify
only a remote IP using
:192.168.0.2 or similar.
You also may need to do
echo -n 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr
at boot-up. See Documentation/proc.txt in the kernel source tree.

To call an ISP you don't need proxyarp. The message means that pppd
can't find a local interface, other than the PPP interface, that has an
address in the same subnet as 209.142.128.5. Such an interface is
necessary for proxy arp to provide the means for return packets from a
LAN to get to the PPP peer, which is what proxy arp is all about.
: I can ping 209.142.128.103 but I can not ping 209.142.128.5
I didn't see anything that would cause this and the ifconfig output
showed no errors or dropped packets. You can add the pppd debug option
and see if anything else falls out. You can also check the device file
configuration and modem configuration to make sure they are OK.

Hi Jack,
depends on your environment. Check
http://www.snipix.freeserve.co.uk/linux.htm. They provide a dlc and dlpi
driver as well as a modifed IBM token ring card driver. If you are
interested in a tn3270 gateway, they have it.
Well, we are trying that solution with an Olicom token ring card and are
still researching, but with an
IBM token ring card it should work.
Ciao, Peter

Subject: Problem with wd8013 combo: no port autodetect ?
Date: 3 Sep 1999 22:03:51 GMT
Hello !
I have two PC with two WD8013 EWC (i.e. with AUI/BNC/10b2 combo) :
I have ifconfig and route corrects (already tested on other lans)
but no ping between the two machines.
Howhever, the wd and 8390 modules receive something because :
- when I disconnect, I see collisions by ifconfig
- when I ping from a dos machine, I see errors (x pings=x errors) in ifconfig
So I wonder : is port detection working ?
Does anybody have experienced (and solved I hope) the same problem ?
Thanks !!

Subject: ipmasq and dial on demand, RedHat 6.0
Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 21:58:04 GMT
I'm using RedHat 6.0 on a baby server at home. Ipmasq was
cake to set up and get working. HOWEVER, I manually have to fire off
the ppp0 script and then shut it down when I'm done (I used the
control-panel application to configure the dialup).
Is there any simple way to get dial on demand with an
inactivity timeout. Ultimately, I'd like it to fire up and dial out
when my PC fires off a request outside the internal subnet, then hang
up after XX seconds of inactivity on the line. That saves me the
trouble of telnetting in and launching/closing the ppp connection.
Any help or suggestions would be greatlly appreciated!
