away.

If not from a specific MAC address, then is there another way?

You can't filter on the mac-address because the source and destination
mac-address becomes changed be every router(this is layer 2). Only the
source and destination ip-addresses (layer 3) stay the same.

Using it the way you do, is unsecure anyways! But i think you know it
already! :)
I would suggest using ssh and portforwarding. You can allow login with
private key only, which seems to be very secure and then you can tunnel your
http and vnc over the encrypted ssh session.

As far as I know, you can't. But you can always make an ISO-image yourself,
which contains those settings.
Do a search on building an ISO in the archives of this list, it has been
discussed many times.

Smart BootManager works but I have one of those Sony

do with it with Smart BootManager ? 

It does not seem to have syslinux.cfg in the smart bootmanager floppy. I
need to add apm=off no-hlt before it starts to boot the ISO  from the CD.

Many thanks.

 Basically all you have to do is to include the ide

 /boot/modules and /boot/etc/modules as specified in
 the Bering docs. You 
 can start with a stock bering floppy, strip it down

[leaf-user] problems with idt77105.o

2003-06-11 Thread Jose Luis Abuelo Sebio
Hi everyone!

  As I was told in this mailing list, I have
downloaded the module idt77105.o to install with other
module nicstar.o to get my atm nic ForeRunnerLE 25Mbps
work under bering.

 I went to
http://leaf.sf.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/modules/2.4.20/modules.dep

 to check the module dependences and I did not find a
dependence with idt77105.o but when I try to install
this module before I install nicstar.o I get this
error:

insmod idt77105.o
Using idt77105.o
insmod: unresolved symbol gr_is_capable

so if later I do insmod nicstar.o it tells me that
idt7105.o doesnt work, of course.

Any ideas about what happens here? I will be more than
glad if you can tell me something that can help me
out.

Thanks

[leaf-user] Proper VLAN Configuration after reboot

2003-06-11 Thread Mike Bigus
I had some problems figuring out how to get VLANs configured thru a
reboot. After reading thru the archive I saw a few different options -
one of which was a modified vlan config file in
/etc/network/if-pre-up.d.

Just so everyone knows, you don't need to change anything, you just have
to specify the VLAN-RAW-DEVICE in /etc/network/interfaces.

For example,

# May not need this
auto eth1

iface eth1 inet static

address 0.0.0.0

masklen 0

broadcast 0.0.0.0

 

 

auto eth1.25

iface eth1.25 inet static

vlan-raw-device eth1

address 10.10.10.1

masklen 24

broadcast 10.10.10.255  

Works Great! Could somebody please add this to the FAQ or add a note in
the vlan file, because it really isn't immediately obvious..

Are you sure that nicstar.o is the correct module for your card ?

gr_is_capable is from GRE?? Do you need ip_gre.o first ?

Darcy, 

I would also suggest the same option Lars proposed, use ssh and
portforwarding with ssh acting as the tunnel. Some of the advantages are
disabling passwords and using RSAauthentication which can be configured
in your sshd_config file, averting the password cracking problem. A
properly configured sshd_config file is a powerful complement for your
security setup. Another advantage is that you will only be using the ssh
port for the connection, instead of opening the standard vnc 5800,5900
ports..and you can use the compression option as well. There's a pretty
good tutorial at the realvnc site on how to go about it:

[leaf-user] bridge and htb

2003-06-11 Thread Mike Schurman
Hi

It seems like I'm trying to do the impossible.

I have Bering [1.1] running the Bridge module.

I've also managed to get htb-qos module working - minimal testing, but I can
QOS and share BW

courtesy a slightly touched up Wonder Shaper.

eth0 is the interface I'm QOSing - outbound interface.

It seems that when I really start pushing traffic thru it [the bridge],
toward eth1, that eth1 will die. ( 1Mbit/s TCP)

If I bring the eth1 interface down and back up and Stop and restart
Shorewall (runs the Wonder Shaper script)

that it will go again for a short time.

I've also tried just using the bridge alone and get a stalled interface
after some time this way too - I don't think it has anything to do with htb.

IP addr shows the interfaces promisq, and up - even when it dies.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

Mike Schurman

You pointed me in the right track, but it turned out the 3c589_cs CANNOT

Instead, the 3c589 driver needs moved to the /lib/modules/pcmcia, then the 
pcmcia package backed up.  Upon load, the OS automatically loads these

That got eth0 working, at least from the firewall's view.

I'm still checking the eth0 service to make sure I understand what's

[leaf-user] Pump renewing lease too quickly and filling the log

2003-06-11 Thread David Jardine
Folks,

I am a newbie, be gentle with me.

My Configuration is :-

DLink DSL-300+ ADSL modem
Bering 1.2

My situation is as follows:-

The modem manages a pppoa connection with my ISP.
Bering uses pump to communicate with the modem.

In general terms, this setup is working and I have full access to the
internet from the machines on the internal network and from the LRP box.

The problem is two-fold in that my daemon.log file is growing at an
alarming rate with messages from the pump daemon.  The first reason that
this is causing a problem is that each lease renewal is causing 25 to 30
lines to be written in the log.  The second reason that this is causing
a problem is that for some reason pump renewal is firing every 45
seconds or so.

What I would like to achieve is set a more realistic lease renewal
period than 45 seconds and secondly reduce the number of lines that pump
writes to the log when it does renew.

I have tried entering the command pump -I eth0 -l 10 at the command
line which I thought should set the lease time to 10 hours.  It appears
to have no effect.

My pump.conf and pump.shorewall files have not been changed from the
standard files distributed with Bering 1.2

This has led me to conclude that the dlink adsl modem is controlling the
lease time and I would need to reconfigure it to fix the first part of
my problem.  Is that a reasonable conclusion?

Any suggestions?
