How I made Dachstein Dial: Assumptions:
1 Ethernet Router IP will be 192.168.1.1 Configs will be stored on floppy Before booting with CD-ROM 0. rawrite bootdisk.bin to floppy 1. edit lrpkg.cfg on floppy 2. add packages: lncurses ( dependant for bash ) lrdline2 ( dependant for bash ) bash -optional ppp -required libpcap ( dependant for tcpdump ) tcpdump -optional vim -optional ifconfig -optional After booting with floppy and CD-ROM 1. vi /etc/modules add: slhc ( needed for ppp ) ppp uncomment: 3c509 ( for my ethernet card ) ip_masq_ipsec ( use of vpn behind router ) 2. vi /etc/network.conf IF_AUTO='eth0 ppp0' comment out all of eth0 change eth1 to eth0 eth0=192.168.1.1 Line 257: EXTERN_IF=ppp0 Line 319: EXTERN_UDP_PORTS="0/0_500" ( use of vpn behind router ) Line 341: EXTERN_PROTO0="50 0/0" ( use of vpn behind router ) Line 348: INTERN_IF=eth0 INTERN_IP=192.168.1.1 3. vi /etc/ppp/peers/provider /dev/ttyS0 57600 4. vi /etc/chatscripts/provider edit: phone-number username password 5. backup etc, modules, ppp using lrcfg So far so good. A dedicated dialup router with VPN behind the router works well. Now here is where I am having trouble: I try to make it on demand dial by: vi /etc/ppp/peers/provider add: demand idle 600 When I ping from a computer on the LAN ( which worked before I added 'demand' ) I get: Feb 19 02:37:17 firewall kernel: Packet log: output DENY ppp0 PROTO=1 10.64.64.64:8 129.3.1.1:0 L=60 S=0x00 I=6659 F=0x0000 T=31 (#6) What do I need to do to allow that packet to pass and bring up ppp0 ? -Thanks Steve More _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
