[Leaf-user] Telnet to Bering

As part of setting up Bering, I want to be able to telnet to it from the localnet. Are the following steps sufficient? - open up port 23 in shorewall, from localnet to fw - make sure hosts.allow allows it - uncomment telnet for inetd - add ttyp0 to secure ports for root login - do I need a line

RE: [Leaf-user] internal NAT question

2.4 iptables is a tool for manipulating netfilter including NAT and port forwarding. Forwarding does NOT bypass netfilter, its an integral part of it. My problem is an ipsec packet is handed to ipsec by the input chain which puts it back on the output chain, no forwarding. Therefore I use

[Leaf-user] Re: looking for Linux distribution just for LAN DHCP server (1NIC)

Not exactly what you are specifying, but it is what I use in this situation. It has dhcpd, and also Samba for file serving, an email server, webmail, and the Apache web server. Very, very easy to setup and administer. But it requires a hard drive. For my money (and time) - this has been the

[Leaf-user] Oxygen, /dev/boot and /dev/backup -links?

I'm converting Oxygen floppy disk distribution to start from compact flash instead of floppy fisk. Now the problem is that I couldn't quickly find the settings or scripts that create the /dev/boot and /dev/backup links to point to floppy disk device. What settings and scripts should I modify to

Re: [Leaf-user] Telnet to Bering

Many thanks for your detailed reply. I always use ssh, and have been using it for years. I just wanted to telnet while doing the setup, as I'm not at the stage of using two floppies and ssh lrp packages yet. The absence of a telnetd, as well as being commendable, would be a good reason why I

Re: [Leaf-user] Re: looking for Linux distribution just for LAN DHCP server (1 NIC)

I've been using Oxygen for this myself. It's running dhcpd, dnscache, and tinydns and that's about it. And oxygen is part of LEAF, too. -Steve Unfortunately, LEAF requires two NIC's because it is a full LAN/WAN router. I was wondering if there is a good distribution just as easy and small

RE:[Leaf-user] WRP - pcmcia detection?

I can't offer comment on WRP, but I have played with the WaveLAN card in Bering. The ISA-PCMCIA adapter I have is made by RayCom with a Ricoh chipset. I was able to have the card recognized and configured, but the lights would not go on and it wouldn't operate. Two high beeps, but not much

Re: [Leaf-user] internal NAT question

Tony: Heya. Sorry for chiming in late, I had a busy weekend. :) I believe the information about ipmasqadm bypassing ipchains is incorrect. I've always known it to be described as: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/IPCHAINS-HOWTO-4.html Some nice ascii art there. Quoting from the

[leaf-user] entropy and ipsec

experimenting with 2.4 ( not LEAF yet ) I am mystified. ipsec's(freeswan) rsasigkey command needs entropy ??? So on 2.2.16 i did a bunch of find / /dev/null ( stdout supposedly generates entropy ) Reduced key gen time from 5 min. to 5 sec. Doesn't work on 2.4.18 . Whereas just a

[leaf-user] DSL Router returns a 192.168.1.2

Hi All - I am not very well versed in Linux, but am attempting to set up a LEAF box to use as a router. The problem is that LEAF sets up the internal network using 192.168.1.xxx but with my ISP, my (Arescom) DSL router is using that number(the external interface on my LEAF router.. I

Re: [Leaf-user] looking for Linux distribution just for LAN DHCP server (1 NIC)

Hi Greg, Larry, Kim, and others, Thanks for all your responses on using Dachstein as a simple DHCP server. I decided to try swapping the eth0 (now to internal) and eth1 (now to external) interfaces, and comment out the eth1 statements in network.conf. Modifying these conf files was kind of fun.

[leaf-user] Windows Network Browsing works!

Charles, I thought I'd let you know that I got Windows Network Browsing (SMB) working. In the process I learned an incredible amount from the Samba docs (thanks for pointing me there). I spent quite a while sniffing the network and examining packets. The culprit seems to be the cisco router

[leaf-user] Is it worth making LEAF work on 386?

I'm putting in a wireless link from friends in city to farm for faster Internet access and need to have a remote repeater site on hill running from battery and solar power. LEAF should be ideal for this. I will make a power supply to run the mother board direct from the battery to reduce losses
