Hi, If I think your modem is the kind that i think it is then your modem
wont work. I know that the aopen 56K P is a WinModem. There are several
articles on winmodems @ redhat.com. If your aopen isn't a win modem, then
go to redhat.com and search for modem install. First is to make sure your
modem works in Linux, then the isp will be next.
If you can get minicom to atdt, and you still need help, email
me@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
goodluck

Try the de4x5 driver on this one (The RH6.0 HW compatibility page
recommends this one for the only Kingston driver listed. I've also had
better luck with it than with the Tulip driver).

And the 3c59x driver on this one. The RH6.0 HW compatibility page
explicitly excludes the 3c905B from use with the 3c509 driver.

Subject: Getting linux to PPP logon to Juno Web
Date: Sun, 05 Sep 1999 00:19:09 GMT
Hi, I have Juno as my ISP and under Windows it works fine. I want to
be able to access JunoWeb via Linux as I find it a bit more efficient
and to my liking. Using the RedHat/KDE PPP setup tool I get the
following. The 1st message was when I used terminal based
authentication and the second one is when I try CHAP or PAP
authentication. Note that in the terminal based authentication I get a
message that indicates UUNET is involved. Am I doing something wrong
in the setup or is there some intermediate login (to get on via uunet)
that Juno is not telling me? I have tried to contact Juno via their
support e-mail to no avail. Is there somewhere I can look on Windows95
to see what they are doing?
TIA Ray
When I try the terminal base authentication scheme I get....

I hadn't thought of it that way. That sort of throws my perceptions off
a bit, since they say that the routing code in the kernel handles the
bridging. And don't layer 3 switches function a bit differenly from
routers? I know that they work on the protocol layer, but our layer3
switches (different from our layer2 switches) act a bit differently from
our routers (a pair of Cisco 2500s). I can't put it into words very
easily, since I don't have a reference book or the devices available to
me from home.

I think I have it figured out!
I have a linux (Redhat 5.2) server with internet access,
anda win98 box networked via generic ne2000 ethernet cards.
Internet access and e-mail works fine on the linux gateway,
but could not access the net from the win98 machine via the
linux gateway.
Here is what I did.
Make sure your internet access (ppp) connection is up and
working correctly.
make sure your LAN is working properly by pinging all
computers on it from every other computer on it
now read the IP-Masquarade mini HOWTO, and you will find a
section (after the system setup stuff) that tells you how to
use the IPFWADM program. (stands for IP Firewall
Administration.)
In there it describes how to deny access to all, and also
allow access to those machines as you desire.
run the program as instructed and ....viola!!! it will
work!!
It also sugests that you install the lines in your
/etc/rc.local file so that it will re-initialise he settings
automatically on boot/reboot.
Hope this helps some of you.

Thank you for answering. Yes, the ip_masq_ftp module does exist. I
am able to access ftp sites, but I had to make a slight change in my

This stumped me for a bit, too. I upgraded to the 2.2.5-22 kernel
and still had the same problem. Do a "make mrproper" first to
completely clobber any configuration files -- especially any that
are residual from the package. Then do the "make config". Be
sure to "make modules" and "make modules_install". After these
steps, the nfs daemon started up just fine...
Hope this helps...

I believe that is a winmodem. Sorry there are no drivers under linux for
any winmodem. You need to buy a real modem. Bad news I know.

1) What modem are you using, model type, internal, external, winmodem?
You need to make sure your modem is linux compatible, check the hardware
compatibility list at redhat's site.
2) If your modem is Linux compatible then getting it set up should not
be difficult. You only need to know the logon information that your ISP
provided for you to setup your windows connection, phone number to dial,
logon name, password, nameservers and gateway addresses, do you have a
static IP address or dynamically assigned, etc.
3) I used the linuxconf system administration tool that came with redhat
to set up my connection. You must be the root user and type 'linuxconf'
on the command line to start it up. If you installed the documentation
when you installed your redhat linux you can get the instructions to
setup your modem with linuxconf using your netscape web browser to open
the file on your computer with this address:
file:/usr/doc/rhl-install-guide-en-6.0/manual/doc070.html#s8.1.4.1
If you did not install this documentation you can download (using
windows) the redhat linux install guide from several sites
(www.redhat.com, www.metalab.unc.edu, etc).
4) After I set up my connection I then start and stop my connection
using the usernet graphical tool.
If that doesn't get you going feel free to email me.

If your computer is exposed to the Internet, or other hostile network,
the first thing you should do is remove wu-2.4.2 from your computer.
Or at least move the ftpd (or in.ftpd) to some other location where
inetd cannot find it.
wu-ftpd-2.4.2 has a known exploit which can yield a root shell to the
attacker.
Get wu-ftpd-2.5.0 from ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/ and read the
documentation. It's simple to build and install.
Then go fix the tcpd problem (/etc/hosts.deny ?) that's likely preventing
you from connecting from localhost.
