FreeBSD 5.1 - WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE #2
Hi Chuck,
Thanks for the suggestions.
First off - there was actually a typo in the line:
firewall_script=/etc/rc/firewall
I changed it to:
firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall
However, it made no difference to the WinXP box
ability to connect.
Next I tried commenting out that line altogether but
it still did not work(!) It would not go online.
I then checked out rc.firewall asper you suggestion
and looked under OPEN ... This is what I found:::
# If you just configured ipfw in the kernel as a tool
to solve network
# problems or you just want to disallow some
particular kinds of traffic
# then you will want to change the default policy to
open. You can also
# do this as your only action by setting the
firewall_type to ``open''.
#
#${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
# Prototype setups.
#
case ${firewall_type} in
[Oo][Pp][Ee][Nn])
setup_loopback
${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
;;
[...]
Do you see a problem in this set-up?
I am considering setting it up in SIMPLE mode but I
want to be able to run the machine in OPEN mode before
I get too fancy with security and firewalls ... you
know?
Thanks again for you help ... please advise.

The Second and Third lines don't seem right.. What
do
I need to do correct the problem here.
The line here:
firewall_script=/etc/rc/firewall
...tells IPFW to use a config file that doesn't
contain enough useful
rules.
Comment out that line, and examine /etc/rc.firewall
instead, and
reboot. Then
take a look at the rules being loaded by the OPEN
firewall type, which
should
include a divert rule...

FreeBSD 5.1 - WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE
Hi Everyone ... thanks for your help thus far. I've
made some changes below. [I have Not made all the
changes that you've kindly suggested but enough that I
am able to ping back and forth ... if I have ignored
your suggestion and you still see a gapping error,
please feel free to reinterate, I won't hold it again
you!]
OK, the changes ...
-I got rid of the ifconfig_vr0
-I set ifconfig_ed0 to 192.168.0.1 (where as _vr0 was
initially set as the gateway)
- I tried pinging from Freebsd to 192.168.0.4 the
WinXP #2 machine. and got through!
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to itself at
192.168.0.4 andit got through.
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to ed0 at
192.168.0.1 andit got through!
BUT I still cannot get the WIN XP webbrowser to read
the internet.
What is wrong?
I think that the
natd_flags=redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.3:80 80
should be:
natd_flags=redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.1:80 80
I will try changing this and see what happends

Also, a small problem --- I have a webserver running
on the Freebsd box but everytime I reboot, I get a new
IP address(from above: 6X.9X.11X.3X). The fixed IP
address always seems to be: 6X.23X.25X.12X. However,
I have my domain name set to redirect towardsthe
dynamic address so everytime I reboot, I have to tell
the DNS server that holds my domain name my new IP
address. Is there a way to configure it so that I
don't have to continuously change the IP address on
the DNS?
Should I just get rid of the line:
ifconfig_vr0=DHCP
and set the DNS to 6X.23X.25X.12X? Would that do the
trick? Or should I get rid of ifconfig_ed0=DHCP?
Thanks again
MY original Post
I have a Freebsd 5.1 box connected to the internet.
It works. But I am now trying to network two other
Win XP machines as per the following network
hierarchy:
Setup
ISP- DSL Modem - FreeBSD box :
1) vr0 192.168.0.1 [Gateway machine address]
2) ed0 192.168.0.3 [Internal Network address]
connects to:-
4- port HUB -
1)WinXP machine #1 192.168.0.2
2)Freebsd Box 192.168.0.3
3)WinXP machine #2 192.168.0.4
Problem:
I cannot communicate to the Internet from WinXP #2
(Have not tried to config WinXP #1 yet).
Browser Config
IE Brower Settings for WinXP #2 {ToolsInternet
OptionsConnections)
-I set the browser so that it never dials a connection
because it is suppose to be networked right?
- in the LAN Settings option, I set the Proxyserver
option with the address of the gateway of 192.168.0.1
with Port 80
Dialouge
From Freebsd Machine
# ping 192.168.0.4
PING 192.168.0.4 (192.168.0.4): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
-at one point I was able to ping the freebsd machine
from WinXP #2 but then for some reason, I made a
change and cannot ping anymore...

On a single user system that is probably ok but you don't have the security that NTFS has built into it. You make it easier one way and lose protection in the other. I don't like the idea of a regular user having administrator privlidges. Running as administrator on XP carries the same risk that running as root does on Unix. The NTFS, I think, really supports the long names that are common to the registry and FAT32 has to use an alternate way of deal with long names. That is why you see the funky names with embedded ~ tildes.

FreeBSD beside WinXP
Hello, I read somewhere before that there were partition or boot problems after installing 5.1 beside winXP. Has anyone been able to do this successfully? Is there something not obvious that I need to set/tweak while during sysinstall? This partition has seen several versions of Mandrake and Redhat (Fedora is a flap, btw, IMO), and they all do it automatically as if assuming that users DO install their OS beside some Windows. But I have grown tired of the linux fad/hype and just wanna try my favorite server OS on it to see how it does too on the desktop. But at the same time, I need my XP very much. My 40G hardisk is currently partitioned like this..: 512MB Windows swap | 512MB Linux/Unix swap | 20G NTFS | 10G FAT32 | Rest = Linux/Unix Thanks in advance =) chael ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: FreeBSD beside WinXP
As far as I am concerned, I tend to have 1 partition for the system and a separate one for user data - this way, you don't wipe everything out if your system crashes. This saved my life a couple of times. What do you need the 10GB FAT32 partition for? (I suspect the same purpose but with respect to Windows...?!?)

Re: FreeBSD beside WinXP
Thanks for all the replies. And yes, that's what my FAT32 is for... sort of a mediator for the different OSes which also contains important files but no directories for working applications. Ok, let me get this in short. You basically recommend me to follow this http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#NT-BOOTLOADER ? If I want to copy that /boot/boot1 from my FreeBSD partion to my drive C:\, how can I get to my FreeBSD partition, in the first place, if I won't be able to boot from it after installation? (because I assume the above steps would require you not to touch your MBR while installing FreeBSD). Can I create a boot disk to boot that FreeBSD? Thanks.

A number of us were trying various solutions and one of the docs-commiters distilled the essentials from everyone's comments into that page. I like using ntldr because I can set the boot to FreeBSD, tell XP to restart and go grab something to drink. When I come back, FreeBSD will be running.

You don't touch the mbr but FreeBSD will set its partition as the active one. When you want to run XP, you just have to set it back to your c-drive as the active one. You can mount your 10GB partition and copy /boot/boot1 on to it or mount the cd on XP and copy it there before you start. If you have a bootsec.bsd in your boot.ini, FreeBSD will just automagically run when you choose it. Kent Thanks.

Re: FreeBSD or WinXP????
Define what you mean by web scripts... If you are referring to a scripting language.. including php, perl, python, or even ASP/VBScript then either platform would work (although you couldn't test ASP in freebsd natively) If you mean compiled stuff like java, you are also ok. Now platform specific stuff might not be so friendly.. like say a C cgi, .NET code, etc. Matching the type of server its going to run on would be good here. (or close) Technically though you could write the source on any platform and upload it. On Wednesday, September 17, 2003, at 10:35 AM, Denis wrote: Hi All!!!

Re: FreeBSD or WinXP????
You are probably refering to keyboard refresh rate. It is a setting. In KDE I think it is in COntrol Centre. Check the keyboard tab. Do you use KDE or GNOME or others?

FreeBSD 4.7 + WinXP + GRUB problem
I attempted to set up a notebook with a single drive to dual-boot and now I am having a problem booting into XP. Here's the story: I split a notebook's hard drive in half (10GB each half) and installed XP (NTFS) on the first parition. I installed FreeBSD 4.7-Release on the second half. I was originally unable to boot FreeBSD, but this was because I did not select a boot manager during the install phase. I went back into /stand/sysintall and installed the FreeBSD boot loader. Upon a reboot, I was presented with the F1 ?? F2 FreeBSD menu and was able to boot either OS without any problems. Yeah. I thought that it would be fun to try GRUB, so I did the following: 1. Built the GRUB port 2. Made the directory /boot/grub and moved the stage1, stage2, and *stage1_5 files there from /usr/local/share/grub/i386-freebsd 3. I created a menu.lst file under /boot/grub with the following in it: (only relevant sections shown) title FreeBSD root (hd0,1,a) kernel /boot/loader title WinXP root (hd0,0) makeactive chainloader +1 4. I created a GRUB boot floppy per the instructions in the manual, rebooted, and performed the following steps: grub find /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0,1,a) grub root (hd0,1,a) Filesystem type is ffs, partition type 0xa5 grub setup (hd0,0) Checking if /boot/grub/stage1 exists... yes Checking if /boot/grub/stage2 exists... yes Checking if /boot/grub/ffs_stage1_5 exists... yes Running embed /boot/grub/ffs_stage1_5 (hd0,0)... failed (this is not fatal) Running embed /boot/grub/ffs_stage1_5 (hd0,1,a)... failed (this is not fatal) Running install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0,0) /boot/grub/stage2 p /boot/grub/menu.lst ... Succeeded Done. grub reboot I wasn't sure what to think of the warnings, so I proceeded. After the reboot, I got the same F1, F2 menu that I started with. 5. I used my XP CD to repair the MBR thinking that it was the problem. I ran fixmbr and rebooted. Upon the reboot, I got the GRUB menu. Selecting the FreeBSD option worked fine, but selecting WinXP returned me to the menu. I was able to see a very quick error message saying, Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7 before the menu was redrawn. 6. I rebooted using the GRUB boot floppy, and repeated step 4. This time, I substituted setup(hd0) for (hd0,0). Does that make a difference? I got the same behavior as before - FreeBSD boots, XP does not. I tried writing a new MBR once again, issuing commands from the GRUB prompt, changing root to rootnoverify in the WinXP commands. No good. Any suggestions as to where I went wrong and how I can get my WinXP install back or is it too late for me? If it is too late, should I be able to reinstall XP on the first partition and maintain my FreeBSD install on the second? Thanks, Aron -- Aron J.

IPsec VPN between FreeBSD and WinXP
Hello. I could set up succesfully a IPSec transport mode VPN between WinXP and FreeBSD 4.7 The problem is that it works only if I Start the first connection from WinXP to FreeBSD box, and the vice versa does not work. If The very first IPSec connection starts from FreeBSD I have this kind of errors: Dec 3 12:32:41 hal9000 /kernel: IPv4 ESP input: no key association found for spi 69118078 Instead once I ping from WinXP then I Can also ping from FreeBSD to WinXP succesfully. It looks like IPsec transport cannot be initialized if FreeBSD starts a connection with its peer IPsec WinXP host. any hints about this?? I used this document as reference for setting up IPsec VPN: http://www.wiretapped.net/~fyre/ipsec/ thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Me too. I don't remember the details since I tried this a couple of months ago, but I had the same issue. KeS (cripes, what a useless post this is!)
