I think i've found the solution:
ipfwadm -O -a accept -P tcp -V$OUTSIDE_IF $OUTSIDE_NET -D$MAIL_IF smtp -o
sorry to waste your time.
I didn't try debugging it at the command line !
It also helps to do a list using -l just to check its set up.

The COSA board is a synchronous serial card, to connect the box to a
WAN. It is fully supported by the kernel, and it is exactly what I
have been looking for months.
But, I CAN'T BUY IT. No one knows where to find, no web site, no
distributors, nothing at all...
If anyone has ever seen a COSA serial synchronous board and knows
where I can buy one, please let me know...
Thanks,
Jacopo Silva
P.S.: you can see little documentation making the kernel, with make
menuconfig -> Networking adapters -> Wan adapters There is also an
e-mail address for more info, but i can't get answers from that
email...

Subject: IMAP and Maildir
Date: Wed, 8 Sep 1999 11:44:20 GMT
Hi,
I'm using qmail to deliver emails to Maildir style mailboxes. I'm trying
to use IMAP so that users can manage their mail with netscape on a remote
PC, or mutt/pine while telnetted into the box (hence POP is no good).
I've applied the maildir patches from qmail.org to IMAP (washington.edu)
and everything works OK apart from one thing. When I try to create a
mailbox it uses unix_create() rather than maildir_create() within IMAP.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Solved it?
Thanks,
James

I use wwwoffle. Below a an extract from the wwwoffle-welcome-page:
regards, bernward
The WWWOFFLE programs simplify World Wide Web browsing from computers that
use intermittent (dial-up) connections to the internet.
Description
The wwwoffled program is a simple proxy server with special features for use
with dial-up internet links. This means that it is possible to browse web pages
and read them without having to remain connected.
While Online
Caching of pages that are viewed for review later.
Conditional fetching to only get pages that have changed.
While Offline
The ability to follow links and mark other pages for download.
Browser or command line interface to select pages for downloading.
Optional info on bottom of pages showing cached date and allowing refresh.
Works with pages containing forms.
Works with pages that require basic username/password authentication.
Can be configured to use dial-on-demand for pages that are not cached.
Automated Download
Downloading of specified pages non-interactively.
Can automatically fetch inlined images in pages fetched this way.
Can automatically fetch contents of all frames on pages fetched this way.
Automatically follows links for pages that have been moved.
Can monitor pages at regular intervals to fetch those that have changed.
Makes backup copies of cached pages so server errors don't overwrite them.
Provides
Caching of web pages (http), ftp sites and finger command.
An introductory page with information and links to the built-in pages.
Multiple indexes of pages stored in cache for easy selection.
Interactive or command line control of online/offline status.
User selectable purging of pages from cache based on URL matching.
Interactive or command line option to fetch pages and links recursively.
Interactive web page to allow editing of the configuration file.
Built-in simple Web server for local pages.
Automatic proxy configuration for Netscape.
General
Can be used with one or more external proxies based on hostname.
Automates proxy authentication for external proxies that require it.
Configurable to still allow use on intranets while offline.
Can be configured to block or not cache URLs based on file type or host.
Can censor outgoing HTTP headers to maintain user privacy.
All options controlled using a simple configuration file.
Optional password control for management functions.
User customisable error message and control pages.
Further WWWOFFLE Links
The WWWOFFLE FAQ is now provided with the program and there is also an online version
at
http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/wwwoffle/version-2.3/FAQ.html
The WWWOFFLE homepage on the internet is available at
http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/wwwoffle/index.html and
contains the latest information about the program in general.
The latest information about using this version of WWWOFFLE is on the WWWOFFLE Version
2.3 Users Page at
http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/wwwoffle/version-2.3/user.html and contains more
information about using this
version of the program.
You can e-mail the author at [EMAIL PROTECTED], this is helped if you put
wwwoffle in the subject line.

Samba tries to log the connect from the Windoze machine with both
name and IP number, the translation between the two is done by the
function Gethostbyaddr (IP -> name) (Gethostbyname does name -> IP).
As you windoze machine prolly has an IP in the private range of IPs
(192.168.x.x or 10.0.0.x) and are therefor not registered with a DNS
server Gethostbyaddr fails. The solution for this is simple:
Put entries for the various NT orkstations in the /etc/hosts and make
sure your /etc/host.conf has the resolve order set to "hosts,bind", i.e.
first check /etc/hosts, then query the DNS server.
HTH,
\Geert.

Subject: Re: SOHOWare Fast Auto 10/100 PCI -- Tulip ?
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 1999 12:09:22 GMT
Hhmm...everyone's having success except me. I downloaded the same tulilp.c
file as Nina and tried to compile it using the syntax at the end of the
file. Following is a summary of what I did and the warnings and errors that
I got. Can anyone spot a problem in the syntax or provide other advice so I
can compile the tulip.c file? Thanks.
1. Copied tulip.c (version 0.91) to /usr/src/linux-2.2.5/drivers/net (that's
where Red Hat's version 0.89 was).
2. Tried to compile tulip.c from it's directory location using the following
syntax on a single processor PC:
gcc -DMODULE -D_KERNEL_ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c tulip.c '[ -f
/usr/include/linux/modversions.h ] &&
echo -DMODVERSIONS'
(Note that I tried both zero-six and oh-six for "O6"; zero-six generates
an error message so I assume it's oh-six.)
3. The following error messages occur:
gcc: [ -f /usr/include/linux/modversions.h ] && echo -DMODVERSIONS: No
such file or directory
tulip.c:100: warning: #warning You must compile this file with the
correct options!
tulip.c:100: warning: #warning See the last lines of the source file.
tulip.c:102: #error You must compile this driver with "-O".
I checked to make sure that I have the /usr/include/linux/version.h file. I
'm assuming that the kernel source code is installed (although I'm not sure
how to verify that) because I installed the Kernel Development package when
I installed Red Hat.
The error messages suggest a syntax problem (maybe I'm mistyping it?). Is it
zero-six or oh-six? Are those apostrophes and are they in the right place?

That's covered in the FAQ section. Uncheck the "Auto-configure hostname"

No, it does...
"When loaded as a module the following variables may be set:

debug int The debug message level, 0 (no messages) to 6 (wordy).
options int[] The media type override and card operation settings.
(See below.) Add 16 or 0x10 for full duplex.

e.g. 27 should probably do it.

It appears this is possible by editing the normal and shadow passwd files,
but it it not a good way to accomplish what I wanted to do. See below.

Yes, /etc/smbusers does exactly what it is designed to do: map network to
Linux usesr. However, the reason it didn't work before was that the line
username map = /etc/smbusers
was commented out in /etc/smb.conf. After uncommenting that line, all is
well.

This is not possible when ecrypted passwords are used, since it is
impossible to compare two [one-way] encrypted passwords. Also, from the
Samba manual page:
In order for encrypted passwords to work correctly
smbd must either have access to a local smbpasswd
(5) file (see the smbpasswd (8) program for infor-
mation on how to set up and maintain this file), or
set the security= parameter to either "server" or
"domain" which causes smbd to authenticate against
another server.

Date: Wed, 08 Sep 1999 12:40:00 GMT
Thanks for the info,
I finally figured out I needed to get Ipmasqadm installed and finally
found it and installed it.
The $EXT_IP is the IP of the outside NIC on the firewall correct? Or is
this a remote internet site?
I need to get UDP 26 and UDP 2389 to my 10.2.2.50 machine. This
connection should only be allowed from a single internet IP address.
After I figure this out I am gonna get ICQ file transfers to work since
I read the built-in module doesn't provide this with IPChains, but that
isn't as important.
Would there need to be a specific IPChains rule used in conjunction
with these portfw calls or do the ipmasqadm call handle everything?
Thanks for the assistance,
Back to my real job....

First, note that your gcc line is incorrect.
There are TWO underscores ( "_" ) instead of one in front
of and after KERNEL. The following comes from the NetGear floppy
containing the help file (you can find it in the /help/linux directory
on the floppy.) I put numbers under the underscores to highlight
the point - it's easily missed (I did the same thing the first time).
<p> gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet
-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c tulip.c

<div class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"> zero-six
is correct.</div>
<p> Also, I tried the same driver (the one provided
on the floppy) with my Netgear FA310TX and found it would not work with
my card. I had to return to the driver provided with RH6.0
Since you didn't say what manufacturer & card, I'm presuming we're
talking about the same one.
