For most home users this configuration is fine.  Your internal network
could only be sniffed/spoofed by a neighbor on the same subnet of is
someone came to your house and put the device on your hub .   Most
cable providers have filters implemented at the head end to drop
private address dhcp requests etc.   If you are using a ppp to
ethernet  device your net can not be sniffed at all.

Subject: Tracing a bad route
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 18:17:14 GMT

The other day my roommates DSL line went down for hours due to a bad route at our DSL 
provider.  They had one of their routers configured for an internal IP (10.1.2.1) .. a 
black hole.  I ran a traceroute to the IP of our DSL line.  It got to above.net's core 
backbone, hit the internal IP, then timeouts from that point on.  I contacted 
above.net thinking it was a problem on their end but they seemed to track it down to 
the router at flashnet.com.  We conacted flashnet and tehy were clueless.  The problem 
e
ventually "fixed itself" but in the future I'd like to trace down the problem myself 
so I can assist them in finding the problem.  What utils can be used under linux to 
trace a bad route as such?  above.net turned out to be flashnet.com's upstream 
provider... I guess that would make it apparent how they tracked it down so easily.  
traceroute only showed me the bad route but not who's router or box it came from.  Any 
help is appreciated.  Thanks. :-)

hi.

i don't know much about masqing, but your '--sport 10240' means that
the rule applies to packets _coming_from_ 10240, not _going_to_ 10240.

Thanks to all who provided suggestions.  I needed to turn off PnP, and
in the HP Pavilion it turns out that this is done by the Operating
Systems option (never mentions PnP in BIOS).
        As proof, this message is coming out of my Linux OS.  I've mounted my
windoze directores (vfat), and soft linked my Inbox to the windoze
netscape mail files, so all my mail is in one place (no duplicates).

Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 11:30:54 -0700
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I've got IP Masq'ing set up but I need to know whether Bay Networks
VPN works through ipchains-style masquerading (not HOW, necessarily--I
assume if it's possible, there's documentation out there).  I'm
encouraged by the fact that it does work through SyGate on an NT
server (which works on the same principle as IP masquerading).

Thanks for any advance knowledge ;-)

Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 19:03:32 GMT

Hey,
try this for a simple solution. First be sure that you have ipchains
installed. Then issue this command:
ipchains -A forward -j ACCEPT
What this does is add a rule to accept forwarding packets from anyone
to anyone.

Just be sure to know that this is somewhat insecure and that you should
really be more specific as to what you are routing.
Hope that helps!

Hello All,
    First of all let me start out by saying that I'm a Linux begginger and
that I mean that in every sense of the word! The task that I'm attempting is
not for begginers but I love a good challenge. Here is my question.

    I would love to get Squid for Redhat 5.x up and running as soon as
possible. Can anyone point me to some good documentation on the web. Any
insight on how to configure Squid will be greatly appreciated.

    I would really like to use RedHat instead of NT as soon as possible. I'm
tired of the Microsoft world.

this probably means you don't have support in the kernel for the card.
try compiling a kernel with support for the network card you have.

once the kernel supports the card, you should be able to get basic
networking with something like:
`ifconfig eth0 <your ip address> netmask <your netmask> up`
`route add -net default gw <your gateway address>`
then
`route` should print a routing table that includes your network.

if all is well, you can browse things like rc.config (or whatever - i
don't know as I don't use SUSE) for these commands (ifconfig and
route).  when you find them, you can change them or add some to
reflect the commands you typed at the prompt to get the network
connection up.

Hello y'all,
      I've sampled the wisdom of the newsgroups for some 
time now, and I'm still a bit stumped by the problem I'm having 
with my ppp connection. Right now I'm using linuxconf to setup 
and run the connection.  The connection has a static IP address.  
On the ``other side'' is a Sparc 5 running ppp-2.3.5.  On my side is 
RH6.0 with ppp-2.3.8. Below you will find the log file after the chat 
connection is established.  There does not appear to be any problem 
with the modem, since I can make a direct modem connection using 
e.g. minicom.  Furthermore, the ppp connection works just fine 
under Win95.  Finally, this same connection worked just fine under 
RH5.0.  
        As you will see from the log file, it appears that the 
connection is established successfully and that LCP and IPCP 
negotiations are carried out with the peer.  However, when I try to 
ping the peer, even by IP number, nothing happens.  The packets are 
sent but never received.  This probably has to do with the frame errors 
that ifconfig reports (see below).  Then, if I wait long enough, the 
connection will LCP time out due to the failure of the peer to return 
echo requests.
