Subject: Linux script question.
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 10:07:53 +0000
Hello!
I have just written a script that make my comp. auto dialup to internet
and sendmail and disconnect.
The script:
dip dialup
hold
dip -k
The hold program is a program that copying file many time.... to let
sendmail have enough time to send E-mail
But u know, Always copying file make my system become very busy and very
slow, so I want to see is there are any subsitutes that no need so much
system resources and can still make my script work.
Sorry for my poor English & presentation.
Reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED], thank you!

I have a LinkSys 10/100 on an HP Pavillion and downloaded the
latest tulip driver from LinkSys. However, this did NOT work, I
had to use the one that comes with the card (which is a bit
older).
Also: I had to swap graphics and network card (the network card
has to be the first one) to get it working...

Subject: Using Proxy Server for caching
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 11:30:41 GMT
Hello forum,
I going to set up a linux box as a proxy server, between my ISP and a
local network. Due to the slow connection to the ISP I would like to
have a caching system for the clients within the local network.
I know that a proxy server can be used for caching. Do you have any
recommendations, regarding to a special product, or can I use just every
proxy server, like SOCKS etc., which are available.
Is there maybe a smarter solution for solving my problem?
Thanks for any comments

Hi!
My linux (Redhat 6.0, kernel 2.2.3) refreshes the ARP table
every 6 to 10 minutes (or something like that).
I know it's possible to disable it by modifying kernel sources.
But which kernel source file holds the value for ARP refresh?

Hello:
I�m doing my end career project about networks & traffic.
I have a problem because the last part of the project is
to study the traffic generated between an oracle server and the client,
discovering who is the client and the server,
and what kind of document have been required.
I�ve made a powerful sniffer who gives me protocolos, mac addresses, IP�s...
My problem is to find information about the TNS "transport network
substrate" or the architecture for stablishing a connection between
the client and the server.
My question is if there are any kind of technical papers about this or
where can I find something useful.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my horrible english.

Hi,
It depends on the configuration of the school network. There's perhaps a
firewall which dont give you any access to others computers. To see another
computer, you should log on it, if of course you have an account.

Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 21:57:32 +0900
Hello.
I am trying to use SDR under linux. I couldn't find a pre-compiled version,
so I downloaded
the source package from UCL.
But it was not that easy... there was build directory for linux platform
with auto configure
command, but it needed several strange files like "config_win.h" "qfDES.h"
or so.
I think that it will take several hours or days to compile..
So. Is there any ported source for linux or pre-compiled version?
Thanks in advance.

I am using a RealTek 8029 and a RealTek 8139 adaptor in my system running RH
6.0 with kernel 2.2.5. Linux fails to recogninze the second network adaptor
(RealTek 8139). How do i solve the problem. There are no irq conflicts or
other hardware problems.
I will need to route traffic from the 8029 adaptor (DHCP IP, T1 internet
connection) to the 8139 adaptor (Static IP, local network) and the other way
around. What do i need to setup in order to do this.

Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 12:51:56 GMT
I have mine shared w/o much problem. I usually run root so the writing
to the vfat drive is not an issue. Are you sure that you have RW turned
on in the fstab file for this drive and user mountable specified?
The only "problem" I have encountered is the fact that Linux Netscape
uses a different summary file format than Windows Netscape does,
consequently the Windows snm files show up at the bottom of my mail tree
on the left hand pane as duplicate names of every mail folder (i.e.
inbox.snm, sent.snm, etc). Linux NS doesn't seem to care and builds
it's own summary files when using any pre-exisitng folders.
I have sent, received and forwarded messages w/o incident or
corruption. I also changed my preferences.js to use my Win NS bookmarks
too, and they will save, edit and work just fine also.

Make sure that smb.conf is set to show the same work group and that you
are on the same subnet (IP's the same except for the last set of
numbers), also make sure that your share is browsable. LM announce set
to on is good too.
You might want to enable the Samba server to be the WINS server or at
least the master browser.
Entries of all the PC's in the LMHOSTS file might help too, if your
network is small enough. Read the docs and man page for smb.conf. Also
a pretty good book (although not updated to 2.0.5a to my knowledge) is
SAM's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours, it cleared up a lot of mysteries
for me.

I apologise in advance if this is a simple solution - I searched the
archives, but it was difficult to be more specific than : "it doesn't work".
I have set up a linux 2.2.11 box as a router (originally RedHat6).
IP_forwarding is enabled, and IP masquerading is configured into the kernel.
My connection to the Internet is via ppp0.
The irritation is that I can get my WinNT box to use the router, and not my
Linux box!
If I haven't provided enough information, please tell me what you need to
help me here.

Subject: Please help: pppd won't connect!
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 13:43:35 GMT
Just installed RedHat Linux 6.0. It uses pppd 2.3.7. I upgraded from
RedHat Linux 5.1. I had a connection script, which allowed me to
connect to my ISP (while not always successful), that no longer work
now. I have looked through the HOWTO and FAQ, but nothing seem to help.
I tried using minicom to dial and authenticate, then use pppd to
negotiate the connection. It worked. However, using chat script, it
just refuse to negotiate right. I tried using the suggestion of HOWTO
to include a \~ '' expect pair, but it only screws up the authentication
process (really just simple text base authentication). I even tried to
use sleep (like pppd connect "chat -f "chatscript"; sleep10" ....blah)
since using minicom seems to work, I thought maybe if I can skip the
initial ppp negotiation, it will work okay... but to no success.
>From the log, it looks like my machine sends out a ConfReq, the the
remote machine request that I use pap, which mine turn down. But after
all the other stuff have been negotiated, my machine keep waiting for
the first request (id0x1), which it had rejected earlier....
This is the log output.

There should be no problem. Just because it has an ISA bus does not
mean it can't also use 32-bit PCI cards (that's what the slots are
there for). Have you tried to use the card and it wouldn't operate or
are you just getting information before you put it in?

Joseph,
What you need to do is enable IP aliasing Take a look at
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/network/alias.txt
If you did not load the linux source, here is a cut/paste of this document which should
get you started in the right direction. BTW: You will need to compile this option into
the
kernel.

================================
IP-Aliasing:
============
o For IP aliasing you must have IP_ALIAS support included by static

o Alias creation.
Alias creation is done by 'magic' iface naming: eg. to create a
200.1.1.1 alias for eth0 ...
# ifconfig eth0:0 200.1.1.1 etc,etc....
~~ -> request alias #0 creation (if not yet exists) for eth0
and routing stuff also ...
# route add -host 200.1.1.1 dev eth0:0 (if same IP network as
main device)
# route add -net 200.1.1.0 dev eth0:0 (if completely new network wanted
for eth0:0)
o Alias deletion.
Also done by shutting the interface down:
# ifconfig eth0:0 down
~~~~~~~~~~ -> will delete alias
Alias (re-)configuring
Aliases are not real devices, but programs` should be able to configure and
refer to them as usual (ifconfig, route, etc).
Relationship with main device
=============================
- the main device is an alias itself like additional aliases and can
be shut down without deleting other aliases.

Hi,
the linux default is to expect connections from "secure" ports - that
is, below port number 1024, which should be accessible to root
only. It will be enough to specify the 'insecure' option in your
/etc/exports and restart nfs. You should have something like:
/web/beta aixbox(rw,insecure)
Bye,
Michael

Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 14:09:26 GMT
I've gotten a chance to work on this some more, and here's my current
status.
To make sure I had the Microsoft CHAP support, I removed the pppd
RPM from RedHat, downloaded the source, patched, and compiled.
I did the line switch in pptp.c but still get the following new
error (IP address changed to protect the innocent):
warn[open_unixsock:pptp_callmgr.c:308] Call manager for 123.123.123.123
is already running.
fatal[callmgr_main:pptp_callmgr.c:124]: Could not open unix socket for
123.123.123.123
fatal[launch_callmgr:pptp.c:213] Call manager exited with error 256
netstat reveals that port 1723 is in TIME_WAIT with the server's
IP address from immediately after the initiation of the connection
until about 30 seconds after the message appears. I've searched
usenet for these error messages with only a few results that offered
no extra help.
Any new ideas?
Mike
