Re: Network routing on multi-homed system

2014-08-05 Thread Isaac Freeman

I changed the gateway lines to include the whole network, so, i.e.,

post-up ip route add 172.1.1.62/32 dev eth1 src 172.1.1.41 table
external

became

post-up ip route add 172.1.1.32/27 dev eth1 src 172.1.1.41 table
external

and everything starting working great. Thanks! :)

IMO, your special routing is broken. Not all packets with the given
source address should be sent to the gateway, but only packets with a
destination address outside the LAN. Packets with a destination address
inside the LAN should be sent directly.

Either route the LAN prefix using the main table :

 post-up ip rule add to 172.1.1.32/27 table main

(to be created after thus inserted before the "from" rule)
or add a direct route for the prefix in the special table :

 post-up ip route add 172.1.1.32/27 dev eth1 table external

Same for both interfaces and servers.

Note : the routes to the gateways should not be necessary.

Re: atfptd in squeeze won't do anything

2011-08-31 Thread Isaac Freeman
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm looking to set up a PXE server. The
permissions on the directory provided to atftpd are 777 as specified in the
usage. I don't see how host.{allow,deny} make any difference with whether
or not the server starts. I'll give tftp-hpa a try, and I'll look in to
gpxe.

Thanks,

I've only ever used tftp for pxe servers - deprecated with gpxe (http is
much faster and simpler) - if that's what you want to use tftp for
you'll find tftpd-hpa much simpler to configure.

What permissions do you have on the directory being served??

Have you set up:-
/etc/hosts.allow
/etc/hosts.deny
??

If you can tell me a little more about what you want to use tftp for
more it may be helpful.

Cheers

atfptd in squeeze won't do anything

2011-08-23 Thread Isaac Freeman


I have been beating my head against the wall on this for a day and a half.
I just installed atftpd (0.7.dfsg-9.1) on Squeeze. When I first installed
it, it wouldn't take connections through the default inetd stuff. So I
tried editing /etc/default/atftpd and setting USE_INETD=false and running
it as a daemon. Still nothing. So I tried manually
running /usr/sbin/atftpd, and no matter what options I give it (including
none) it just prints the usage and exits, unless I specify --daemon and/or
--no-fork in which case it just exits with an exit code 0 and there is no
process running or anything listening on that port.

Please, any ideas, reports or similar (or even different) behavior, or any
thing else would be greatly appreciated. This is driving me crazy. And I
can't seem to find any recent howtos on the subject, they all seem to be
several years old, or they say basically "apt-get it, and it should work".

Also, I tried getting tftpd-hpa working too with similar problems, but I
haven't done as extensive of troubleshooting on that.

Problems booting installation CDs

2009-08-22 Thread Isaac Freeman
[x-posted to debian-am...@lists.debian.org, debian-b...@lists.debian.org,
debian-u...@lists.debian.org]

All, sorry for the wide distribution, but I wasn't sure which list this
belonged on; feel free to reply only to me, or to me and just one list.
Also, I'm not subscribed, so please keep me in to "to" line.

Whenever I boot the Debian testing installation CD (haven't tried stable) it
hangs at:

(process:766) INFO: kbd-mode: setting console mode to Unicode (UTF-8)

The rest of the screen is black, and this text is a few lines from the
bottom of the screen. Other Linux distros (Ubuntu, Knoppix) have problems
booting too. The strange thing is, Windows boots just fine, and I get the
same error booting Debian's CD in Virtualbox.

I am running:

Mobo: Biostar TA770 A2+ SE
