Subject: Palm III Network via HotSync Cradle
Date: Sat, 23 Jan 1999 23:14:34 GMT
Hi:
I was wondering if it is possible to access the network with the Palm
III via the serial interface on the HotSync Cradle. I have tried out
the "Palm Redirector" program, but it doesn't quite do what I want.
Here is what would be the optimum solution:
Connect cradle to serial port of Linux system.
Run PPP over serial link and provide transparent routed internet access
(which the machine is already doing for several ethernet workstations)
I have also been able to create a link like this via a null-modem cable
between two Linux PC's. I have (so far) been able to get the Palm III
to act as a serial terminal onto one of the Linux PC's, which is what
leads me to believe it's possible to run PPP over the link. In fact, I
*know* it is possible -- the big question is what software do I need on
the Palm III to do a direct link with PPP?
Basically it would work just like the dialup access which I have already
been able to use, only it would eliminate the actual modem interfacing.

First, David is correct, it was in fact transmitter, not transmission.

Hi. I have a working diald setup on a Debian2.0
box but there are a couple of messages in the log
that I can't seem to find a solution to. The items
are logged when the link comes down. These are
the lines with my comments added:
: Closing down idle link;no problem here
: Terminating on signal 2 ;can't find a reference
;for this.
: Connection terminated ;no problem here either
: Failed;what failed?
: disconnect script failed ;can't seem to get any
;disconnect script to work.
;Any suggestions?
: Exit. ;OK.
: Delaying 10 seconds before clear to dial.
I changed a parameter to make it 10 seconds between
redials, but why does diald end it's session with
this line, which makes you wait 10 seconds before
dialing a new connection?
Diald has been working for about two weeks with no
problems, but these messages seem to indicate that
something is not right.
Any suggestions?

OK so far I have been able to set up a RedHat 5.2 ppp server. I can dial
in with tcp/ip and ipx (thanks to
http://www.tartu.customs.ee/linux/index.shtml, and Valentin Abramov).
However my problem now is getting the ipx packets routed via the linux
server to the network, esp. the novell servers. I have tried ipxripd,
but I cant get it to compile under the libraries in RedHat 5.2.
Is there another ipx routing dameon or another solution.
I also need some info on getting SAMBA to work accross a ppp connection.
As usual any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have a question.. I am going to help a friend of mine setup a
group of computers up on the internet through a dsl line. Basicaly the
business is getting 5 IP address's.. To put simply going to use those 5
for teh machines that will actualy be running web server and so on... on
the internet. But there is 3 other computers that are just going to be
web browsing and the cost of adding more IP address's basicaly doubles
are monthly cost. So we do not want to do that, on a very low budget.
So I was wondering can I use IP Masquerading to share the internet along
with using the linux box as the gateway? I have my linux system at home
running ip masquerade with my dsl line works great. But not sure if I
can have it as a gateway to the machines with true Internet address's
and Masquerading at the same time.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Edwin
If you're using SuSE 5.3, This has ISDN support out of the box,
so you don't need to compile the kernel all you need to do is start YaST
and add your card,
and ppp interface under network settings.
do a reboot and run: isdnctrl dial ippp0, then ping your provider.
don't forget to add your providers name server ip under /etc/hosts or every
time you boot isdn will dial out to resolve the name servers ip address.
good luck..
If you run into problems drop me a line... andyr@(nospam)itab-net.com

Hi,
I've just installed S.u.S.E. Linux 5.3. I've then recompiled the kernel to
correctly support PPP and my Teles ISDN card. During startup I can see that
PPP is present in the kernel.
However, when I use pppd, I get a message that the kernel doesn't support
PPP.
Do any of you know this problem? Or do I use the pppd command in a wrong
way?
My ISDN device is ippp0.

Hi linux-users!
I'm quite new to Linux and certainly no expert of TCP/IP and so on.
I've learned a lot the past couple of days, but now I'm really stuck.
So, probably I'm about to ask a FAQ, but I can't find the information
I need on dejanews, nor in the Linux faq, HOWTO's etcetera.
Here it goes:
a- I like to send and receive email on my linux box.
b- I have Red Hat 5.1; sendmail, procmail, fetchmail installed.
c- I have an ISP with a pop3 server, ppp connection working.
So far I can contact the pop3 server of my ISP (using fetchmail), but cannot
establish a SMTP connection between the pop3 server of the ISP and my linux
box, to transfer the mail to my computer.
The questions that arise:
1) I get a dynamic IP number: what should I choose as a hostname?
(If I choose 'somename' as hostname, and do a "nslookup
somename.my.isp.domain" from another host (with fixed internet connection)
it cannot find it. Does this mean that the hostname I chose doesn't
have any meaning whatsoever?). If I do 'nslookup my-dynamic-ip-nr'
I get some cryptic name, not related to the hostname I chose.
2) How should I 'activate' port 25 on my linux box for accepting mail by SMTP?
(Should I do that in the first place?) (for instance my /etc/host.deny
says "ALL: ALL", does that mean that I do not accept 'connections' on
port 25?)
3) Should I run sendmail as a daemon to accept incoming SMTP traffic at
port 25? How to do that on a RedHat installation?
4) How do I tell (through fetchmail) that the pop3 server should
send my mail to my humble linux box. Probably something different
than my chosen hostname as mentioned in point 1 above.? If I use
the name found by 'nslookup my-dynamic-internet-ip-nr' it does not
work either. Should that normally work?
5) If I specify the ISP's domain name (e.g. by RedHat's netcfg-tool) it
shows up in /etc/resolv.conf (in the line "search my.isp.name").
However, if I send mail to a non-local email adress in the 'From'
field only 'user@somename' shows up, so not a FQDN.
Making a /etc/mailname file with the ISP domain name (as sugessted
in the ISP-hookup-HOWTO) didn't change this.
6) How can I (using sendmail) have my email adress at my ISP in the
'From' and 'Reply-to' fields of my sent emails, so that recipients
can easily reply. (instead of the 'user@somename' as mentioned under
number 5).
Thanks in advance for any help! Please send copy of the usenet replies to:
"joost . willemen @ rt . bosch . de" (please remove the whitespaces
inbetween). (I don't have a usenet client installed yet. Probably next
questions).
Best regards,

In that mode, pppd uses the following option file:
pppd 2.3.5 (which you will need to upgrade to in any case if/whenever you go to
2.2.0 of the kernel) supports demand dialing. Note, you will need to set up a

it looks like diald is withering, given the lack of activity on the home page.

You really need to post the full pppd script, the full chat script(s),
and the chat messages in /var/log/messages as well as the pppd and
kernel versions. The scripts and messages should be duplicates
of the originals, extracted with an editor or other program.
For help with a problem after you successfully dial out you will also
need to use the PPP "debug" option and post the PPP negotiation messages
that are in /var/log/debug as well as the form of any PAP or CHAP
secrets file.
The particular file for these messages varies with the distribution so
you may have to look around in /etc/log for the right one. Sometimes you
may have to configure /etc/syslog.conf to get the messages sent to a file,
"man syslog.conf" can help if this needs to be done.
The timestamps of the messages sometimes provide a clue as to the cause
of the problem and should be included with the messages.

Try setting it to jumperless at irq=10, io=300 and reserve those in your
bios for "isa legacy devices" . This will prevent anything from jumping on
it. I've had some problems in the past with funky ISA PNP cards.

Christian G. Allred wrote in message 78du34$b1t$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
I have an ISA PnP ethernet card which up 'till a little while ago
was working in Linux, but no longer does so. I don't know what may
have changed to cause it to stop, but it won't work.
Although the card works just fine under Windows 98 (gets IP via DHCP,
can telnet, ftp, play StarCraft etc. just fine), under Linux it causes
the driver to output errors to the kernel, whether using dhcpcd or static
addresses. The errors are "ARP: called for own IP" (or similar), followed
by "eth0: Tx timed out. Lost interrupt? TSR=number ISR=number
t=number". This error I know comes from
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/8390.c
but I don't know what's causing it. The card gets properly configured
with isapnp, and the driver is loaded with the right io and irq. In fact,
the problem exists even if the card is set with jumpers.
So why does it work in Winblows 98 and not Linux? Any clues?
Email replies would be appreciated, though any help would be great.

I am running a redhat 5.2 on a fast intel box. It has two network
interfaces one is configured for the default network(eth0) and one is not
configured(eth1).
I wanted to use it as a sniffer so connected eth1 to a span port and
turned it on.
ifconfig eth1 up promisc -arp
This caused two problems.
1. The computer could no longer compunicate with computers on the local
network.
2. The computer would answer all pings he heard on eth1 thorugh the
configued eth0 regardless of who they were destined for.
arp showed that he was seeing correct arp entries for all the local
computers, and route showed that he had the correct entires.
This was not a problem under redhat 5.1, so I was thinking about
downgrading. Any Suggestions?

Exchange also does POP3, but I wanted IMAP4. There are even more client-side

Create an alias for the ethernet card with an address in #2.

If what you are trying to do is to have two cards with an unique ip and

is not allowed.
If you just want your configured connected to multiple networks, you

I've been using IPFWADM for quite awhile. Are there any good books or
docs on
IP rules?
I found /usr/doc/HOWTO/Firewall-HOWTO to be pretty good, and ultimately
quite accurate. The problem is that you sort of need to know a lot about
the
various protocols that might traverse the firewall in order to set things
up
to accommodate all of them. Failing a thorough reading of about 6 of the
O'Reilly
books, I can recommend a little experimentation to find out how to get each
of
these things running right.
I try using the -o switch, and it does not work. Is there a config
setting I
have missed? Also, where do these packets get sent to which output log?
I
can't seem to locate which file does contain the logged packets.
If you haven't found the file /var/log/messages (on RedHat, at least), then
I'm not
sure what "... and it does not work" means. This file is where my system
puts
all those messages. A pointer to it is in /etc/syslog.conf (the line that
says
what to do with *.info entries).
Once you find these logging entries, you can then use this facility to find
out
what ports are needed by various protocols. The basic scheme is that when
some protocol doesn't work, you turn on logging for all packets
