I have tried this with 2.4.26-rc2 and 2.6.5 (and even mm versions of it) on my desktop.
The Ipaq runs the familiar 0.7.2 version. What happens. When the system boots (system being any of the above) the usb0 is properly set up (ifconfig shows nice info) When I up the interface (usbf) on my ipaq (which uses dns and dhcp) I get an dhcp address and CAN connect to the dns server (which runs on my desktop). I can also PING to my desktop either with fixed IP addresses or with DNS names. However. When I try to do anything else (like connect using ssh or telnet to a port of a service know to be running on a fixed port) the client connecting to the service hangs on the 'connect' system call (checked with strace). I checked my firewall settings : :INPUT ACCEPT [2882:494924] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [2047:155319] -A INPUT -s 12.1.0.1 -d 12.1.0.255 -i usb0 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i usb0 -p udp -m udp --sport 68 --dport 67 -j ACCEPT -A OUTPUT -o usb0 -p udp -m udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j ACCEPT COMMIT # Completed on Mon Apr 12 03:23:58 2004 # Generated by iptables-save v1.2.9 on Mon Apr 12 03:23:58 2004 *nat :PREROUTING ACCEPT [154:10965] :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :fromlocal - [0:0] -A POSTROUTING -s 12.1.0.0/255.255.255.0 -j fromlocal -A POSTROUTING -s 224.0.0.0/240.0.0.0 -j fromlocal -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE -A fromlocal -d 12.1.0.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT -A fromlocal -d 224.0.0.0/240.0.0.0 -j ACCEPT -A fromlocal -d 127.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT -A fromlocal -j MASQUERADE COMMIT 12.1.0.1 is the USB Ip address of the desktop. the Ipaq gets an address 12.1.0.10 and up. I also get the following messages on my ipaq's dmesg : usb_recv: RPC for non-existent buffer usb_recv: fifo screwed, shouldn't contain data NETDEV WATCHDOG: usbf: transmit timed outNETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out Which prompted me to ask for help here. on the desktop I get NETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out NETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out NETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out NETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:03.1-2 address 3 usb0: unregister usbnet usb-00:03.1-2, Linux Device hub.c: new USB device 00:03.0-2, assigned address 2 usb0: register usbnet usb-00:03.0-2, Linux Device NETDEV WATCHDOG: usb0: transmit timed out usbf: no IPv6 routers present Could there be something wrong with usbnet ?
