PPP and radius.conf - shouldnt it be doing round-robin?
I use userland ppp with radius authentication against 2 radius servers, on a freebsd 4.8-stable box that i use as a router/gateway. The two servers are on two different interfaces, it seems that when i unplug the first server (#1 in radius.conf) from the switch the arp cache on the gateway will time out and a Host is down message is generated (or icmp host unreachable). All authentication requests are then automatically denied without consulting the second server. If i then swap the order of the radius servers in radius.conf while the first server is still down, i get authenticated. If i arp -s the mac address of the unplugged server, and it's the first one in radius.conf, the authentication mechanism proceeds to query the second server and i get authenticated. Is this intended or is it one of those icmp unreach/host down issues i've seen more and more often lately? i read this in 'man radius.conf': Up to 10 RADIUS servers may be specified for each service type. The servers are tried in round-robin fashion, until a valid response is received or the maximum number of tries has been reached for all servers. uname -a: FreeBSD fictious 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0: Sun Aug 3 00:55:37 GMT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WACCESS i386 - Sten ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: How do I max a 6Mbps link
Hi all, What configuration changes do I need to make to two freebsd-stable boxes to fully max out a 6Mbps/220ms network link? This is for bulk 500+MB file transfers. The target application is proftpd with ncftpd as the client. Thanks in advance, Max 220ms? I dont think TCP can handle this. Look for a non-connection oriented protocol to transfer files. UDP for example, or better, raw IP.

RE: Changed ISP now can't get to websites / traceroute
The thing is, now that I've got this new ISP (Zen - 8 static IP's), I find that there are sites that I am not able to get (browse) to, most concerning is www.freebsdforums.org. Ever since I've got this new ADSL account, not for hell nor high-water can I hit that site, using any browser, using any OS (FreeBSD, RH £inux or MS Win2K Pro / XP) at home. There could be a hundred reasons as to why you dont reach www.freebsdforums.org. _Might_ be an MTU problem somewhere upstream, if ICMP is filtered this is definitly a bigger problem. Does ping work? If they also filter UDP as you mention (fbsd traceroute not working) I'd suggest you talk to your ISP and find out exactly what they are filtering. Are those 8 static IP's public or private? If they start with 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x through 172.16.31.x.x they must be NATed and it is their NAT configuration that blocks the traceroute.

IPFW stateful deny question
This one is for the archives. If anyone would donate their time to replying to this one, It would be appreciated. Im trying to setup a firewall that for a time-limited period block IP's that send packets to specified ports. After time has expired the ip will be allowed again. With this setup; ipfw add 100 check-state ipfw add 1000 skipto 2000 tcp from any to any 445 ... ipfw add 2000 deny ip from any to any keep-state ... Would this setup a stateful block against that IP address, blocking all IP traffic from that particularly evil ip Or would it just match the specifics? Would I have to do this instead to achieve this? ipfw add 100 check-state ipfw add 1000 skipto 2000 tcp from any to any 445 keep-state ... ipfw add 2000 deny ip from any to any ... - Sten ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Than let's consider either 3 equal static routes to `C' set at `A', or OSPF with 3 equal cost routes to `C' from `A'. Is it possible to tell kernel to route packets between `A' and `B' in a round-robin way, so that each of 3 channels handle 1/3 of a total consumed bandwidth? Something like equal-cost multipath feature of Cisco IOS? Yes. See the ng_one2many(4) man page. You don't need to futz about with aliases to lo0 on machine C: just make another ng_one2many cluster there and treat both of them as a regular network interfaces.

TCP in TIME_WAIT for too long.
Im using a 4.7-STABLE box with Zebra BGPD for full BGP feed and i have come across an unusual problem. It works great except when i come up in the situation when the provider reboots their router. FBSD doesnt seem to detect that the link has been broken and the TCP connection will stay in TIME_WAIT for a long time (up to 20 minutes?). Is there any way to tweak this to die after about 120 seconds? Will this break anything?

I use PPPoE protocol for connection with my Internet Service Provider (ISP) through this ADSL modem. I use FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE and ppp (a.k.a. user-ppp) for this. In the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file I have ' set MRU 1492' and ' set MTU 1492' options. This is because the maximum MTU one can use with PPPoE is 1492 according to RFC 2516. I have no problems with dialing to my ISP. But after the PPPoE connection is established I have troubles with TCP connections to some hosts. For example I can't go to hhtp://www.ssh.com/ but to http://www.freebsd.org/ or http://www.gnu.org/ I can. If I run 'telnet www.ssh.com 80' and enter HTTP request according to HTTP 1.1 or 1.0 protocol I don't get any answer. If I enter just 'GET /' I get some short answer. 'GET /' is an HTTP request according to the old HTTP 0.9 version of the protocol and it is rarely used today. But the problem is not HTTP, I think. If I do HTTP request according to HTTP 1.1 from my friends' computer I do have some long answer. Furthermore if I change the MRU and MTU to 1484 or smaller I have no problem with www.ssh.com. So it looks like TCP packet overflow or something like that. Besides FreeBSD I have Windows 98 Second Edition in my computer. I use PPPoE with Win98SE too. I use RASPPPOE driver fo it, go to http://www.raspppoe.com/ for more information. I have no problems with www.ssh.com when I use Win98SE with this impimentation of PPPoE protocol. I have MTU == 1492 set by default in RASPPPOE. I don't get error messages about fragmentation when I run 'ping -f -l 1464 www.ssh.com' in my Win98SE (ICMP+IP=1464+28=1492). Why in FreeBSD I cannot use MTU == 1492 without problems with some hosts like www.ssh.com ? How to fix it in FreeBSD? P.S. ping have different syntax in Windows, so don't be wondered about -f flag. -f sets no fragmentation flag in IP headers of all outgoing packets. I use ADSL here on my site, but not that modem. How do you connect to that device from the FBSD box? I configured my ADSL modem to work with PPPoE. Then I changed the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file to this one: /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device PPPoE:ed0 set speed sync # set MRU 1484 # set MTU 1484 set MRU maximum 1492 set MTU maximum 1492 set timeout 0 set urgent none# no priorities enable dns # request DNS info (for resolv.conf) disable ipv6 ipv6cp disable shortseq protocomp acfcomp vjcomp deflate pred1 mppe denyshortseq protocomp acfcomp vjcomp deflate pred1 mppe myisp: set authnameusername@ISPstring set authkey password add default HISADDR # Add a (sticky) default route /etc/ppp/ppp.conf The hostname of my box can be resolved through /ets/hosts , so I don't need any kind of 'set ifaddr' in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file. ed0 is the ethernet NIC my ADSL modem is connected to. Many lines of the default: section of the ppp.conf file are not critical. The only ones you need are these: set device PPPoE:ed0 set MRU maximum 1492 set MTU maximum 1492 enable dns See `man 8 ppp` for more information. Dude, I wasn't asking for assistance.., rather I was hoping to provide some help in response to your post.. :-) The reason why I asked about how you connect to your ADSL modem is because if its ethernet, then there is no need to use ppp. But if there's a case-requirement why you need to use ppp, then fair enough. Let me know either way, okay? Yes, my computer is connected to my ADSL modem by Ethernet. What is the way to connect with the ISP without PPP? Is it ethernet bridging with DHCP? My ADSL Service Provider (Bezeq) does not support this. Moreover, the use of ethernet bridging is inconvenient for me because I can't switch the
