Just a thought, but did you add a default route? Can you ping your own IP?

Subject: Internet connections with Motorola GSM phones
Date: 25 Jan 1999 15:27:38 GMT
Dear Linuxers,
I have a Motorola CD920 phone and would like to make internet
connections with my portable computer.
Do you know of any PCMCIA card that can be used with this cellular phone
and that is supported under Linux? (Is the Motorola CELLect family usable
under Linux???).
Further question. I would like-eventually-to be billed for my data
traffic and not for the time I spend on my internet connection. What
options do I have *in Italy*? (My contract is with Omnitel).
Thanks a lot in advance.
Marco Bravi

Subject: IP problem with second interface
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 1999 09:34:07 -0600
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?

In the Netlogon share you can put one (ore more) config.pol file(s).
With a batch-file it should be possible to invoke the right file for
specific users or machines.
(If username=blabla then call blabla, etc)
Next URL is a nice one for examples of various scripts, and great for ideas!

Have you:
setup /etc/smb.conf i.e. top config section and disk specific
info below,
resolved which encryption you will set in /etc/smb.conf
setup passwords with smbpasswd.
Can you ping by address AND >hostname<? What is ipconfig /all
and
nbtstat -N xx.xx.xx.xx and netstat -r?
There is a common FAQ about loosing routes which may be
happening.
Do a netstat -r before and after your problem on each machine to
see
if its this problem.
Whats in hosts on both machines /etc/hosts & c:\windows\hosts.
Same
for networks. You'll probaby have 192.168.1 in networks.

Subject: Re: demand dialing with pppd
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 1999 16:34:33 -0000
I got as far as compiling ppp-2.3.5 from
ftp://cs.anu.edu.au/pub/software/ppp
then realised I needed to recompile the kernel to get the new ppp module
The ppp install program is broken so the new ppp.c code does not get
installed
and kernel comp fails. You will need to do this:
Thanks to Clifford Kite for this one:-
*******************************************************
The ppp-2.3.5 package has a couple of problems with kernels 2.0.34 to
2.0.36 . One is that the ppp-2.3.5/linux/ppp.c isn't copied to the kernel
source tree during the "make kernel" phase of ppp-2.3.5 installation.
The other is a bug in a section of ppp.c that detects the kernel version
and selects kernel-dependent code.
A solution is to fix the versioning code in ppp-2.3.5/linux/ppp.c and
then copy it to /usr/src/linux/drivers/net, overwriting the older ppp.c
there.
Look for this code beginning at line 3079 in ppp-2.3.5/linux/ppp.c and
change the < to >= . Copy this ppp.c to /usr/src/linux/drivers/net and
recompile the kernel.
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < VERSION(2,1,86)
#define FREE_SKB(skb) dev_kfree_skb(skb)
#else
#define FREE_SKB(skb) dev_kfree_skb(skb, FREE_WRITE)
#endif
NOTE: This problem goes away with 2.1.131+ kernels.
************************************************************
Once I did this the kernel compiled and Linux rebooting with PPP (demand
dialing)
installed.
It works in so much as you run pppd with the demand option (and all your
other options) but
it only uses the connect parameter when it detects IP traffic on the
interface.
I couldn't figure out though how to filter and how to drop the line again
after x minutes!!!
Now I'm trying diald which I was going to in the first place.
Duh!

Yeah, and unfortunately I don't think the IS dept will be inclined to
help with that. After all, why would anyone want to use a Linux based

you're supposed to use anyway!! ;-)

It should. If you enable the specified ports or if you use masquerading as

of masquerading over proxy is not beeing limited to specific ports.

Subject: DHCP acting funny?

I hope this doesn't turn out to be an NT problem :).
I have been trying to set up DHCP server on a Redhat 5.2 machine.
Eventually I installed dhcp-2.0b1pl8-1 but it didn't help. My dhcp.conf
set up is the simplest possible for test purposes. I have one IP number
associated with one MAC address. The first time it worked fine but then
I changed the IP number in dhcp.conf and the DHCPOFFER is for the new IP
number but the client requests (DHCPREQUEST) the number I gave it before
and there is no DHCPACK (or whatever :) ). The clients are NT 4.0 sp3.
Do I have to do something when I change the dhcp.conf on top of
rerunning the daemon. How do I persuade the client to accept a new IP
number?
Any help very much appreciated,
Raphael

You've probably posted to the wrong newsgroup for help - try posting
your queries about KDE to
comp.windows.x.kde
I may be able to help however.
In order to build KDE, you should:
a) install the Qt libraries/ headers
b) setup QTDIR and KDEDIR environment variables
c) build kdelibs, kdesupport and [probably] kdebase before kdeadmin.
The above blocks provide header files required by the other modules.
See the KDE web site (http://www.kde.org) for more details.

Mark Roberts
If the above helps, let me know.

Just a thought, but this may be a problem with your ISP's DNS setup. Some
sites will reject you if they can't do a reverse lookup on your IP address
(that is, resolve your IP address into a legitimate host.domain name).
They may have forgotten to completely set up your IP....(I think?)

I would also drop <escape FF>, and would use <asyncmap 0> (I'm not sure
the hex designator 0x will be accepted by pppd.)

'ABORT' 'BUSY'
'ABORT' 'ERROR'
'ABORT' 'NO CARRIER'
'ABORT' 'NO DIALTONE'
'ABORT' 'Invalid Login'
'ABORT' 'Login incorrect'
'' 'ATZ'
'OK' 'ATDT7131285,,,,,,1134922126,,,'
'CONNECT' ''
'TIMEOUT' '10'
'~--' ''
I would try <CONNECT '\c'> and <~__ '\c'> in place of <'CONNECT' ''> and
<'~__' ''>. These forms suppress carriage returns that sometimes confuse
the ISP. ***This could very well be the problem you have here.***
BTW the file /var/log/debug file usually contains ppp negotiation
messages. If there is no such file look for these messages in other
files in /var/log. The /etc/syslog.conf file determines where the
messages go, for debug messages there should be line like
*.=debug /usr/adm/debug
"man syslog.conf" can help.

1. check /var/log/messages. bind will inform you about misconfiguration
there.
2. Systems can ping each other?
3. Sure you entered proper IP-adress in the proper-dialog?
If any answer is "NO" repost or better read DNS-Howto.

Hmmm,
In your /etc/hosts.allow, what are the settings. For telnet try:
in.telnetd : ALL : allow
Be careful though, this lets everyone in to your Linux box. If you know the ip
address of your win box, use this
in.telnetd : <Your Win Box Ip address here> : allow
in.telnetd : ALL : deny # this keeps everyone else out.
of course, if this is a LAN at home, security isn't much of a concern, but if
you ever connect your linux box to the internet, be sure to put some security
settings in your host.allow file. Read the man page on host.allow for more
info. Hope this helps
