My questions are: there is the possibility to put them back read write and if yes how??? is it a bug or a feature???

kernel 2.4.0-test9 and Cisco Pix Firewall - Might be a bug???
Hi all, I finished a fresh debian installation (woody) with kernel 2.4.0-test9 (tested in various configurations) and 2.2.17 + pcmcia (latest release) All the installation is on a laptop with pcmcia support enable for my 2 eth's. The situation of my network is like this: box eth0 --- Cisco Pix Firewall --- real internet box eth1 --- real internet my normal configuration is with eth1 down so all packets have to travel trough the Pix. With kernel 2.2.17 everything work fine. Using kernel 2.4.0-test9 no. I disabled each kind of iptables or ipchains in a way that my box is fully open. I got that all connections to the localnet are ok while all tcp connections from my box to the real internet don't work. I receive a Connection Refused while i'm able to perform ping or traceroute to the same host. So I setuped my eth1 directly on the real internet and everything worked fine. (also routing was ok in all conditions) Any idea why there's problem??? Fabio

Hi Wilson, if you need to monitor traffic on a lan i can suggest you both iptraf and ntop. The last one provide also a mini web interface with traffix matrix and statistics of any kind (very nice).

This is my network situation: | box1 || box2 | |___| | -- | pix fw | -- the main problem is that pix firewalls (cisco) are able to talk rip but not to setup a default route with rip.

I would like to know if it's possible to setup a virtual shared ip address between the 2 linux boxes (not load balancing) to ensure redundancy. That's mean that if a linux box is down the other is working with the same virtual ip to permit the pix to work. Thanks in advice.

Potato is still not stable and CD's on this site are re-generated each week so you may be lucky to find them working or not. And, does 2.2.14 kernel supports UDMA66 ? i'm not sure but you can find patch for 2.2.14 to support UDMA66 anyway on www.kernel.org you'll find something for sure. -- _ ___ ____ ___ ___ _ __ _ _ __ _ |_ _|| _|| | | _|| _|| _ || \/ | | ||_ _|| _ || | | || _ | | | | _|| |_ | _|| |_ | _ || \/ | | | | | | _ || |_ | || _ | |_| |___||___||___||___||___||_||_| |_| |_| |_| |_||___||_||_| |_| [EMAIL PROTECTED] - South European @ccess Back Bone -- http://www.seabone.net/ --- Fabio Massimo Di Nitto | Debian GNU/Linux Woody 2.2.14 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | running on mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Laptop AMD K6-2 400Mhz 64Mb

SSH SSH2 and XTERM
Hi all guys, a really strange problem is afecting my debian boxes. when i try to open ssh/ssh2 connection in xterm after the logon section i'm not able to see something more in the xterm. i'm sure the connection is established and if i do it from a text console it works fine. All my boxes are running woody and only one potato (same problem also) with each packet correctly update since this morning (atleast here is morning eheh). Anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks a lot to everyone in the chat! Fabio

Quake2 problems on woody
Hi all, sorry if i'll bore someone with those questions but since a week i'm not more able to play Q2 on my box. I'll try a lot of things but now i don't what to do to fix it. I'm sure that i installed correctly i was able to play..:))) well the problems are: 1) using Software rendering (on another console) i can hear sound but i cannot see anything 2) under X (latest one) i see and hear but the size is not correct (if the window is 320x240 i see Q2 in 160x240) so how can i fix??

Two problems to solve...(i hope)
Hi all, I don't wont to bore anyone but I need to solve to little problem on my new computer. (i've already installed succesfully debian on more than 20 boxes but i'm not able and i've no time to solve them) First of all Linux is unable to find my UDMA66 HardDisk. I know that exists some patches to make it working. Anyone have already tryed them? Are they working or not? It's better to leave the Hd on the /33 controller? The other problem is X .. I've bought a S3 (8Mb) Agp 2x video card but trying VGA SVGA and also S3 xserver i'm not stil able to use X. Any suggestions? Thanks to all. Fabbione.
NIC problem
Hi all, i've a little trouble with my 2 nic on my inet gateway. after ifconfiguring it i receive continously some errors like: eth1: Tx timed out, excess collisions, TSR=0x9c, ISR=0x8, t=1000 the error is always the same except for t= that is variable. The network attached to eth1 is working fine and collision are not so high (due to a low traffic utilizzation) Thanks all.

Re: ssh2, tcpdump
Can someone please help: 1. ssh 2.0.13 failed on make on stock slink. I did the usual configure then make and then it gives me errors(sorry I don't have details here and I can provide that). Anyone who has successfully build ssh2 and if you can give me some pointers? I'm running slink with the latest update. I've succesfully compiled and used Ssh 2.0.13 both on RH and Debian I suggest you to check the packets needed by ssh (zlib is one of them) 2. At work we are just beginning to use Debian and we intend to replace rh with Debian. I am able to run tcpdump on Debian but not on rh6.0. The latter gave this error with tcpdump -i eth0: tcpdump: socket: Socket type not supported You have forgot to built in in the kernel the packet socket in networking options or if you have compiled it as module you have to load it manually (insmod af_packets) Thanks.

Yes I know that's extremly stable (i'm using a raid-4 on 8 scsi disk) Would system performance be poor if only /etc and /home/~ were reading from and writing to both disks using raid1 (assuming this is possible) ? I don't know because it's not a problem of mine.:) I'm trying to help another people..but on my server to setup a raid-1 i've to degrade my raid4 to 7 disk and link it to a spare-disk.

Can I continue using 2.0.36 or do I have to upgrade to 2.2.x? yes you can. If I can: then what patches do I have to apply to it for using RAID-1? include as module raid1 support in block device-- multiple devices driver support In dmesg I find a line that says that the multiple device driver is already running, but I didn't put up any patches, however the raidtools package is installed from slink (0.42-16) check if it is already compiled in the kernel. If I cannot: What else do I have to download for using 2.2.x? nothing else. raidtools are more than enoght I seem to remember having people mentioning me about bugs occuring to them with 2.2.x. They told that upgrading to libc6.1 fixed the bugs but I cannot find the libc6.1 package neither in stable nor in unstable... It was just a test because the raid you are mentioning was not working also for other reason (an hardware update + an half software update) and we were trying also other solutions.

In my systems there are no logand the speed is the same in both ways. I'm using a 3Com Hub TP800. when im transferring very large files, win95 locks up for a moment while it recovers(linux never does) and the transfer continues..can happen several times during a large transfer. from my ifconfig stats, 1 in 5 packets is a collision. the collisions are there wether im going win95-to-linux or win95-to-win95..cept i have nothing that can record collisions in 95. Under Win95 i've no crash and no locks up but a higher number of collision packets check the configuration of your netcard in the system menu and set it to use FullDuplex 100Mbs. Disable auto-mode.
ERRATA CORRIDGE [SAMBA] REQ: RealTek8139
I've to notice an important thing. In some messages that i've sent to this mailing list i've advice everyone NOT to use samba because it sometimes completly crashes linux boxes. Sorry i've made a big mistake. I've just discovered that it works fine. The problem is located in my network interface (RealTek 8139 100Mbps). Sorry to anyone that has followed my instructions. Now does anyone noticed some problem with this network card? I think that the problem itself is located in the kernel-driver because i received a unique log via iptraf of a error packet number and an error packet size (only during large 512Mb file transfer ftp or samba) and then the network went down. I think that the hardware is ok because i've tried also another 2 card. (3 card that does't work fine???mhhh...:) Thanks a lot and sorry again Fabbione

Hi Bob If your laptop is a Winzoz box you have to use a terminal emulator because it's the easiest way to link it to the net. if it is a Linux box you can use slattach. It works fine to me too. I've got my two desktop computers networked using 10base2 and they are working nicely, now I'd like to add my laptop into the system. I don't have a network pcmcia card, but I do have a null modem cable. I think I should be able to use it to network my little laptop into the system, can someone point me in the right direction to get it setup? -bob

No log.:((( I'd say that it was most likely to be a scsi problem, check you logs and see if the are any messages about scsi being reset. Personally, I have had very little trouble with samba but my one of my scsi drives would occasionally spaz and kill whatever transfer I had been doing. Also what kind of crash? System reboot type or something less severe. --Dano

R: Help!!!
When I installed the debian on a Dell 266 PC, I met a problem releated to the SCSI Then it stoped. Any idea? Yes. i've encoutered a similar problem with my Ncr53c810. the problem is located in your generic kernel. you need a specific one compiled for your machine. You may solve your problem in two ways: 1) ask a friend to make a boot-floppy with a specific kernel. 2) install a base of linux that will permit you at least to recompile the kernel on a ide drive (unplug the scsi card before) then recompile the kernel to recognize all your hardware (including SCSI card). Plug your scsi card again and boot. if it stop again your kernel is incorrect otherwise continue normally. now you can setup all scsi peripherals. I've used both solution and they works fine.
