[speedtouch] Retrieving DNS addresses need several reboots

2005-08-10 Thread evaessen

I use Mandrake 10.1 with speedtouch 330 and shorewall (option “no services
to allow the internet to connect to” as I use my machine only to browse
the internet). I downloaded the Mandrake updates available at the mirror
sites.
I find that a decent connection with my internet provider is normally not
established after the first boot. It may take a few extra machine restarts
before the DNS addresses are known. The authentication process with the
provider seems to be OK in all cases because the file /var/log/messages
reflects both local and remote IP and the command ifconfig invariably
indicates the connection is there:

loLink encap:Local Loopback
  inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
  inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
  UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

  TX packets:70 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

  RX bytes:4594 (4.4 Kb)  TX bytes:4594 (4.4 Kb)

ppp0  Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
  inet addr:xx.xxx.xx.xx  P-t-P:yyy.yyy.yyy.y  Mask:255.255.255.255
  UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
  RX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
  TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
  collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
  RX bytes:54 (54.0 b)  TX bytes:54 (54.0 b)

The number of RX and TX packets is low however in case of failure.
The  /var/log/messages in these failure cases do not show the DNS addresses.

Two things surprise me a bit.
1. In case of success, the information about the addresses shows the
familiar layout:

Aug 10 00:17:22 localhost pppd[2319]: local  IP address xx.xxx.xx.xx
Aug 10 00:17:22 localhost pppd[2319]: remote IP address yyy.yyy.yyy.y
Aug 10 00:17:22 localhost pppd[2319]: primary   DNS address zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
Aug 10 00:17:22 localhost pppd[2319]: secondary DNS address aaa.aaa.a.aa

but in /var/log/messages this information comes many lines BEFORE the
modem message:

Aug 10 00:17:16 localhost modem_run[1147]: ADSL line is up (1600 kbit/s
down | 512 kbit/s up)

though the time indicates the order is OK.

2. In case of failure, the lines giving the local and remote addresses
seems to be lacking carriage returns:

Aug 10 00:02:43 localhost pppd[2232]: local  IP address xx.xxx.xx.xx
29Aug 10 00:02:43 pppd[2232]: remote IP address yyy.yyy.yyy.y
I have no idea what is going on.

2005-05-02 Thread evaessen

Holy smoke!
For two days I overlooked the fact that 4.48 is terribly wrong. It should
be 8.48! I do not doubt that for the rest of eternity I would have
continued to overlook it if not someone had pointed it out to me.
I should have known it because the number is correctly given in

/etc/ppp/peers/ppp0

under my Mandrake 10.1 installation.
I corrected it in

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dsl0

under my SuSE9.3 installation and now I am online in SuSE too.

Thanks!


Ed

 plugin pppoatm.so
 4.48

 Are you sure 4.48 is correct.  I never saw 4.something before.

 #!/bin/bash
 modprobe pppoatm 
 #modem_run -k -f /etc/ppp/mgmt.o 
 pppd call speedtch

   pppd call speedtch debug

 will give you more info (in your system logs).

 Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests

 Probably wrong username/password, or wrong vpi/vci.  Doing
 pppd call speedtch debug should give more info here.

 Ciao,

[speedtouch] Speedtouch modem 330 runs, but still no connection under SuSE9.3

2005-04-30 Thread evaessen

Hello,

I have installed SuSE9.3 and tried to get the mauve speedtouch 330
(revision 2.00) to work. It works nicely on Mandrake 10.1 on the same
machine (dual boot).
Thanks to the instructions of  it seems that the modem is operational,
because
1. The way the lights flash on that modem are familiar to me and suggest
that the microcode is uploaded correctly into the thing.
2. I get the following lines from /var/log/messages:

Apr 30 17:00:42 linux kernel: ADSL line is synchronising
.
.
.
Apr 30 17:00:58 linux kernel: DSL line goes up
Apr 30 17:00:58 linux kernel: ADSL line is up (1600 Kib/s down | 512 Kib/s
up)
Apr 30 17:01:15 linux hald[7624]: Timed out waiting for hotplug event
1051. Rebasing to 1079
Apr 30 17:01:29 linux su: (to root) vaessen on /dev/pts/2

But these lines are also the last lines of /var/log/messages and that
suprises me a bit.

Anyway, I tried to get configure the connection with my provider (xs4all,
The Netherlands) via Yast modules (configuring a DSL connection) but to no
avail. Perhaps no surprise because the connection it makes has the
unfamiliar name dsl0 intead of the ppp0 tha I have always known.

Not getting further, I read some information from a site that gave
described the set up of things under SuSE 9.2.
I put my secret info in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets as well as in
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets.
Then I created a file named:

/etc/ppp/peers/speedtch

containing:

lcp-echo-interval 10
lcp-echo-failure 3
noipdefault
defaultroute
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
noauth
noaccomp
nopcomp
noccp
novj
holdoff 4
persist
maxfail 25
updetach
usepeerdns
plugin pppoatm.so
4.48

The information for the username of course being adapted.
Next, a bootscript named:

/etc/init.d/dial

was made containing:

#!/bin/bash
modprobe pppoatm 
#modem_run -k -f /etc/ppp/mgmt.o 
pppd call speedtch

(Guessing that modem_run was no longer needed, the corresponding line was
commented out)

and some settings were made:

chmod 744 /etc/init.d/dial 
cd /etc/init.d/rc5.d 
ln -s ../dial S50dial


What I then found out was that the module pppoatm was not installed after
reboot.
I modprobed it then but after that, a new line was added to
/var/log/messages:

Apr 30 17:03:53 linux kernel: pppoatm: unsupported module, tainting kernel.

Maybe that was the reason why the bootscript /etc/init.d/dial didn't
install it.
I gave the command by hand, as root:

 pppd call speedtch

and the /var/log/messages was extenden with:

Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Plugin pppoatm.so loaded.
Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: PPPoATM plugin_init
Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: PPPoATM setdevname_pppoatm - SUCCESS:4.48
Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: pppd 2.4.3 started by vaessen, uid 0
Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Using interface ppp0
Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Connect: ppp0 -- 4.48

and a little later:

Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: Connection terminated.
Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: connect(4.48): Address already in use
Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: Exit.

So still no connection.
By the way: /etc/resolv.conf contains the DNS info.

 The SuSE-9.2 page http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/suse/index.html
 won't work with
 SuSE-9.3 because the new (since 2.6.10) kernel won't work with modem_run.
 You need to
 split the firmware and let the kernel load the firmware itself. You might
 get some
 clues how to do that if you read some of the other pages, Ubuntu, Fedora,
 the
 firmware-extractor page. I will update the SuSE page as soon as I can
 download it,
 but as long as it's only available as a commercial product - it's really
 SuSE you

Thanks. I was aware of the fact that modem_run no longer is necessary
under SuSE 9.3. My modem, as far as I can guess, does run.
Also, pppd runs and pppoatm is loaded (though only by hand, as root, on my
system). It seems as if only one small step is now necessary.

[speedtouch] Re: How do I set up my Speedtouch

2003-03-24 Thread evaessen
Hello Paul,

I left all these CRC problems behind me when I purchased a USB PCI with
OPTi chipset on it. The VIA chipset present on my GA-VAXP mother board
always gave these CRC errors.

I have the modem_run command in my /etc/rc.d/rc.local file (Mandrake 9.0,
I don't know what this file is on SlackWare). These lines were added:

modprobe ppp_generic
modprobe ppp_synctty
modprobe n_hdlc
/usr/local/sbin/modem_run -e 1 -m -f /windows/E/Linux/adsl/alcaudsl.sys

You see that I use the alcaudsl.sys in stead of mgmt.o
Should not make much of a difference I heard.
You can also see the the option e -1 is part of the command, though this
seems not to be neccesary in later version of the speedtouch programs. I
still use the CVS from 19-11-2002 and a patch for this option -e. Never
change a winning team.

I have no automatic startup of adsl, but use commands adslstart and
adslstop, that are present in /usr/bin.

/usr/bin/adslstart contains this line: /usr/sbin/pppd call adsl
/usr/bin/adslstop contains this line : /usr/bin/killall pppoa3 pppd

To be able to use pppd and pppoa3 as a normal user, you must make yourself
member of a group that is allowed to use them.

First see to it that a new group (I named it modem) is added:

groupadd modem

Then your account must be linked to it:

usermod -G modem your_account_name

Some settings must be made for command pppd:

cd /usr/sbin
chown root:modem pppd (suppose pppd is indeed in /usr/sbin)
chmod 4750 pppd

Same procedure for pppoa3.


As far as firewalls are concerned: I may still be a newbie in the field of
USB ADSL, but in the field of firewalls I am an absolute morone.

Ed

 Ah, success I now have a net connection from Linux.

 Finally managed it through setting the right vci and vpi settings and the
 correct
 domain and nameserver settings for my ISP in the resolv.conf.

 I still have an issue and some questions though.

 1) In my syslog i'm getting the output ' pppoa3 [num] : CRC error in
 AAL5
 frame'.
 I'm assuming something needs tweaking.

 2) Each time I log on I have to run the modem_run and pppd call commands
 to
 get a connection and I also need to be logged on as root.  Can this be
 setup
 in a start-up file and available from any user account ?

 3) How can I disconnect the line if I want ?

 4) Can anyone point me to information about setting up my firewall ?

 Many thanks for all your help.

 Paul

[speedtouch] Speedtouch 330 and OPTi Inc USB

2003-01-16 Thread evaessen
It may still be a bit early to draw conclusions, but I connected my
SpeedTouch 330 modem to a newly purchased USB PCI-card (82C861 from vendor
OPTi Inc) in stead of the USB on the motherboard, which uses chipset VIA
VT6202. It makes some difference:

the OPTi works great, not a single error message;
the VIA gives, as I was used to, dozens of these CRC errors on AAL5.

There is definitely something true about the rumours of VIA chipsets being
flaky.

 It seems that upload produce a disconnection randomly.

 Does somebody knows anything about this ? Could it come from the BSD

Haven't got the bloody faintest idea what is going on with random
disconnections but I suffer them more and more last 2 weeks. Many messages
stating that a CRC error is present in AAL5. Sometimes I even have to stop
because internet work is completely frustrated.
But I use Linux (Mandrake 9.0) AND recent drivers.
I start to ask myself if there is something terribly wrong with what the
sourceforge produced for speedtouch.

Indeed it seems parameter -e 1 is not necessary for making a connection,

[speedtouch] Re: st330 + T. Woodall's patch works. Here isthepatch

2002-12-01 Thread evaessen
My /etc/rc.d/rc.local contains:

modprobe ppp_generic
modprobe ppp_synctty
modprobe n_hdlc
modem_run -e 1 -m -f /windows/D/Linux/adsl/alcaudsl.sys
pppd call adsl

It opens the connection.

I also have made the script /usr/bin/adslstart containing the following:

/usr/sbin/pppd call adsl
/sbin/ifconfig

and in the script /usr/bin/adslstop I put:

/usr/bin/killall pppoa3 pppd

To make them work from the non-root terminal window I must however issue
them like this:

su -c /usr/bin/adslstart  and
su -c /usr/bin/adslstop

In both cases, my root password is asked because I am dealing with pppd?
Is it a good idea to exit the terminal window after giving the command to
start? Although it is a terminal window in which I am a normal user, it
might still cause a danger problem?

Ed

By the way: I have informed my provider (XS4ALL in the Netherlands) that
the patch for modem_run and pppoa3 is there. It may interest them since
they have a Linux support page.

 necessary for pppoa3, only for modem_run.

 Anyway, I am left with a few questions.

 So far I can only make connection being logged in as root.

 This is normal I think and you should start the connection at boot
 by adding some line in /etc/rc.local

  I tried

 su -c /usr/sbin/pppd call adsl

 as non-root, but that opens no connection. And even then the connection
 seems to be usable only once. When ending it with:

 killall -9 ppp0a3
 killall pppd

 the connection is gone and giving the command:

 pppd call adsl

 does not establish it again.

 Anyone knows how to solve this?

 For me the following works:
 killall pppd
 /usr/sbin/pppd call adsl restart the connection

 But: I use mgmt.o instead of alcaudsl.sys and a patched version of
 pppoa3.
 I am currently using LM8.2

 Because it is difficult to find a correct version of
 the patch necesarry to use B. Papillaud's drivers with
 the Alcatel/Thomson st330, I have put it on a web page:

 http://noothuy.free.fr/Speedtouchst330/index.html


 Hope this helps !
