I tried to ping from w95 using digit location. 
Ping to linux machine's IP gives reasonable results. The same with 
w95's pseudo IP address. However ping doesn't see any other machines in
LAN (ping reported Request timing out). I think due to this reason
DNS is not available. On the other side w95 has a corect idea about 
all addresses ( if winipcfg tell me truth ).


Below I placed some info which you mentioned. 

 Then, look in /var/log/massages (the last 20-30 lines,immediately after 
 win95 connection to your server  and after netscape fails). 

It was telnet but I think it doesn't matter. Do you see any clue here?
I do not.

 You may also take a look in your /etc/ppp/options and

 when pppd is started.
 
Here is the list of settings from /etc/ppp/options.

fine. If you have the same kernel which came with the dist. then
I *think* it has IP forwarding enabled (I'm not sure about this,

I think if /proc/net/ip_forward exists, then it's enabled in the kernel. 
cat this file on my router shows:

root# cat /proc/net/ip_forward
IP firewall forward rules, default 4

IP forwarding is enabled on my machine (and it's a router for my LAN) so if
your output is similar, then you should be enabled too.

An easy way to check what's happening with IP traffic is tcpdump.  This
is an optional package which you will have to install separately if you
haven't already done so.

On the Linux box, run tcpdump -i eth0 on one screen and tcpdump -i ppp0
on another.  Then, run a continuous ping from a client (your Win95 box) and
see what happens on each screen.

A big problem I once had that I first thought was forwarding was actually a
routing problem.  (I wasn't using IP_Masq.)  ICMP (Pings) were coming in on
eth0 and going out on the ppp0, but nothing was coming back.  My ISP didn't
have a route back to my client (which they said _was_ configured!  I proved
them wrong)  (Note - this shouldn't be your problem *if* you're using
IP_Masq.

 After few attempts to compile the new binary of mgetty with ppp support
 I was adviced to go  back to the initial point and try again with old
 binary. It became clear ( to Jens B. Jorgensen [EMAIL PROTECTED],
 not to me :-) that there were a propblem with IP address. When the last
 item if IP was set to two digit instead of default 3 digit form than 
 things had changed.
 
 Presen state is following:
 Dailing from the w95 box side I see 
 
 Connected at 14400 bps  
 Duration: 000:06:15
 
 Details: 
 Server type: PPP: Windows95, Windows NT 3.5, Internet
 Protocols:
 1) TCP/IP
 
 
 However, when I try to run netscape ( the same with other staff)
 netscape stops with following message on status line:
 
Connect: Looking up host: home.netscape.com...

 And after a bit thinking it returns:

Netscape is unable to locate the server:
 home.netscape.com
The server does not have a DNS entry.

You might need also to specify the address of nameserver(s) from win95
box side and make sure you give proxyarp option to pppd.

mgetty for PPP; Need help

1997-05-15 Thread Eugene Sevinian
I have installed mgetty ( 1.0.0-1 ) and it works fine when I am dial-in 
from outside w95 machine. Now I tring to add PPP and here are
the basic steps which were done:

1. Installing new kernel (2.0.27) with CONFIG_PPP=m
2. Then I edited Makefile in this way
CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall -pipe -DAUTO_PPP
and slightly modified the policy.h
3. Make; cp mgetty /sbin; rebot

After this point I get the message 
...S1, too fast respawning mgetty. Suspended for 5 min or something
like that. And that is all )-;

Hope that someone can help me to overcome this.

If mgetty is respawning, something larger than ppp is probably wrong--

Nope... thats right. Make sure your init string (in mgetty.config I think)
is right for that port.

Signal 15 is SIGTERM--I wouldn't expect this signal to be issued 
unless you typed 'kill XXX' or some other process intentionally
killed the mgetty. Could you perhaps try the stock mgetty? I don't
know why SIGTERM would be sent to the mgetty process.

Do you have a valid AUTO_PPP entry in /etc/mgetty/login.config?
Did you edit this file? (Note that this won't solve your problem
with your mgetty perishing all the time--just something you'll
need to have to get going.)

You are right, of course, this string is just the evidense of the fact
that I removed
this bad mgetty replacing it by the old stock mgetty. Nothing more! (It
was my guilty.
I put too  much obsolate info in my message. Sorry.)

 Do you have a valid AUTO_PPP entry in /etc/mgetty/login.config?
 Did you edit this file? 

Here it is...

/AutoPPP/ - -   /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login

Though I'm not sure that it is correct. 
Recalling the w95 diagnostic ...

 The computer you're dialing in to cannot establish a Dial_Up
 Networking connection. Check your password, and try again.

... I suspect that something is wrong with
authentification procedure but at this point I am not familiar
with this subject.
