Subject: ppp: i can't get back connection
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 12:23:16 +0200
Hello,
Here is my pb with a ppp connection
My PC is on a TCP/IP network and i want (with mandrake 6.0)
have a PPP connection with my provider.
Once the connection established, i can ping my provider but
i can't ping other adress.
When i ping i get the Ip adress (so DNS is OK) but no the response.
When i try netstat -n, i see the response are counted by ppp interface
but i can't
get them .
Any idea ? perhaps a route problem ?
Here is what i get with ifconfig and netstat -n :
172.20.51.217 is my ip adress on the network

=> Red Hat 6.0 (2.25-15)
Upon my first installation of Linux I also installed Samba and with it
Swat automatically. Due to the Swat docs the config files seem to be
correct:
/etc/services
swat 901/tcp
/etc/inetd.conf
swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin swat
My http daemon seems to run properly too (at least it says that on boot
and I haven't yet configured anything on it!). However, when I "start"
Swat with Netscape by typing http://127.0.0.1:901/ I get the following
message:
"the server may not be accepting connections or may be busy."
I've no idea why my server might be busy. What config files do I have to
check to see what's going on? BTW, Netscape is set to "direct connection
to the internet" and I'm going into the net by using a router...
TIA.

Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 11:21:49 +0100
Hi all,
I am looking at the pro&cons of using a linux gateway for internet
services on a
small company PC network.
There are a profusion of "off the shelf" boxes to provide a network
connection to an ISP. Some may indeed be based on linux pcs.
questions:
1) Am i better off buying a cheap off the shelf box ?
2) Can linux support ISDN ? what cards /drivers are available ?
3) Can linux support FAX ? Is there an email to fax server available ?
4) Does linux provide better firewall facilities ?
5) Is there a windows based client/ html server to facilitiate linux
network config. (not the html config utility) ?
6) Can i convince my boss that linux is the best solution ? in terms of
security, simplicity and cost ?
cheers.

Subject: Telnet + Shell Accounts
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 13:42:16 GMT
Hi.. I am currently working part time at an ISP and they
have decided to
offer shell accounts to the customers. so they have asked us (me and a
group) to try to set up a RedHat 6.0 Linux Box to provide this
service.
The linux box will only be used for the Shell accounts.. the users
will log
on through the ISP's access servers... so we dont have to worry about
that.
It is pretty easy to set up the Linux box and add users on the LAN and
we
have done it.. but how do we do it for the rest of the world !! :) A
nightmare... any help would be GREATLY appreciated...
Thanx.... a million.

As I mentioned before, I got past the LCP stage, and the PAP stage, but
the other side was not responding to the IPCP conf. requests.
I connected to another ISP, using a friends's account and encountered
the exact same problems as with my ISP, so I concluded that it's my
PPP's setup fault. I looked at /var/log/pppdlog (the syslog file I
created for PPP messages) and saw the errors about missing kernel
compression modules (ppp-compress-21, or wahtever), which someone has
referred to a few days ago in another thread. So, I RTFMed the 'pppd'
man page and decided to disable the VJ compressions. Now my
/etc/ppp/options looks similar to this (I'm writing this from memory,
since my Linux system is at home):
asyncmap a0000 # or whatever it is
user honey-i-am-home # my ISP uses PAP
noipdefault
novj
novjccomp
Now everything works fine.

Hi.
I have tried connect a NT-machine to a Linux-machine, using the
linux-machine as a firewall to the Internet. I read the ip-masq HOWTO and
followed the instructions but with no luck. The linux-machine is runing Red
Hat 6.0 and got to networkcards. I have ip-forwarding enabled and I use the
192-series for my "local" network, but I am unable to ping both machines.
They are connected with a twisted TP-cable and hte networkcards indicate
that there is a connection. I don't know what I may have don wrong. If You
do, please help me or at least give me some advices for de_bugging. Thanks

I've just done this, and I suggest the following:
1. Make sure your kernel is up to date enough to have ppp, firewalling and IP
masquerading.
2. Dont bother with diald - get the latest pppd which will do dial on demand
itself
3. Crib the IP-masquerading and ipchains (firewall) commands from the howtos.

If inetd gets more than 40 connections/minute for a certain service,
it thinks something is wrong and shuts down the service for 5 minutes.
You can increase this number by appending a number to the "nowait" line
in /etc/inetd.conf specifying the new maximum rate, say 120.
Read the manual page of inetd.conf for details

Hi there all,
I have a small network with one linux server and several windoze9* machines
and wish to use telnet to administer the linux box from windowz. My distro
is Redhat 5.2.
The problem is that when I telnet there is no login prompt on my screen, so
I cannot do anything. It connects ok though.
Even when I use telnet on the linux box and connect to itself there is no
login. Is there some way to enable this login when I telnet to my server.
Thanks Gratefully in advance. Rick.
I can be emailed at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We also were having problems with Qpopper shutting down by itself, that is
until we read your posting today :-).
Changing the inetd config file fixed the problem.
Thanks for Posting this info on to the newsgroup :-) and giving us the info
we needed to fix our mail server.
Also do you have any tips or tricks to keep a mail server with over 60.000

Did you assign an IP and did you route?
Let's say you are going to assign the adress 192.168.0.1 to your machine.
You would be typing the following:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
Basically, if your network has machines that are assigned IP adresses that
are 192.168.0.*, you represent the whole network with 192.168.0.0.
If your networkmachines have IP adresses of 192.168.1.* then your whole
network would be represented by 192.168.1.0 and you would type:
route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0 this should connect
your LINUX machine to your network.

Use yast -system administration -hardwareintegration -netcard.
Chose your card and settings.
next yast -system administration -networkconfiguration.
Configure your network-settings.
try
#init 1
#init 2
after this your network should run automatically.

Subject: ne2k-pci / 2.2.xx slow telnet performance.
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 10:04:46 -0400
I have used a Realtek 8029 (ne2000 pci clone) with Linux 2.0.xx and
other OS's for a long time with good results. With Linux 2.2.xx though
things get a bit strange: Ftp seems to work fine but when I use telnet
there is a problem.
Note: I am using DEC Tulip and Intel EEPro cards with no problems.
Keystrokes are slow to echo until they stop echoing at all. If I bring
up another window and ping the host I am connected to the keys start
echoing again but at the rate of ping (if I stop ping the echoing
stops). It seems like ping (or the resultant activity it creates)
flushes some buffer. I tried to use tcpdump to see what was happening
but it masks the problem.
There seems to be no interrupt sharing or IRQ conflicts, the I/O seems
to have it's own space, and when using Linux 2.0.36 everything works
fine. I'm stumped.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to troubleshoot this problem?
Lee.

By now i think i have got al problem i can't solve.
Cannot login as user with wu-ftp 2.5.0(4)
Works fine with anonymous.
Reinstalled it but it does't make any difference.
ran ckconfig , no errors reported.
checked the /etc/shells file.
The readme reported that shadow passwords are supported by default,
but i don't know how to make sure.
in /var/log/messages the only information is that
the login failed
Sometimes a line shows up in the messages file saying:
telnetd[pid] ttloop: peer died :Invalid or incomplete multibyte or
wide character.
I don't know what that means.
In /etc/inetd.conf i removed the -a option but still no luck.
There is a -l option either. What does that mean?
I really hope someone can help me out of my misery.

I've been having similar problems. I believe it's a kernel issue.
Which version have you been using? I reverted to 2.2.5 and the
problem seems to have gone away. I could temporarily
fix the problem by taking down the interface and then restarting it.
The ping time goes right down again.

Need your help.
I'm currently using microsoft's hyperterminal to access my routers via
com1/2 to the console port on the routers. When I travel with my labs( I
have Linux running on a laptop), I need something with the equivalence to
configure the routers via the console port. The ethernet and token ring
slots are easy. I've tried "Open" and have skimmed thru the man page but I
still haven't figured this one out and I'm pressed for time. Any
ideas....anybody??

How do I let each POP account user to change their password? I
have Mandrake 6.0 Linux and is running IMAP and Sendmail. I've
changed the account policy for each POP account and yet from
Eudora, no one was able to change password. Did I miss any thing?

I know, that's why I want to avoid it...

I changed my /etc/securetty. It looks now as follows:
tty1
tty2
tty3
tty4
tty5
tty6
and this really avoids a remote login. But it's still impossible to
login as root on the console... Is there any file that prevents root to
login on the console? Can I modify it to avoid a login of any user?
Sinon I feel echt emerdé... - Anyway, thanks for your help!

The first address seems to be bad - no domain. The second nameserver

kvi.net NS NS1-AUTH.SPRINTLINK.NET
kvi.net NS NS1.TRITON.NET

using "host -t ns kvi.net" (capitals don't count here).
