TCP wrappers are designed just for that. When you install Red Hat, tcpd
is already installed.
man 8 tcpd 5 hosts_access
Play with /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow.

Have fun. (Wrappers are not fool-proof, though. Nothing really is, for
that matter.)

Hi, all -
I'm trying to resolve something that seems like it should be very simple...
and it's turned out to be a real bear.
I have two machines that I'm trying to connect - a laptop and a desktop -
without having to buy a PCMCIA NIC. The answer that pops up as being semi-
obvious is "use a null modem cable for point-to-point". Should work, right?
<SIGH>
At this point, I've tried basically everything. I'm beginning to think that I
have no clue of how networks work (this, after years of being a net-admin :).
Here is where I am:
1) If I load the ppp module, run "pppd local noauth ttyS0", and try
"ifconfig ppp0 Odin pointopoint Loki up" (yes, both of those are defined in
'hosts'), I get something like
SIOCIFFxxxx: Device not configured
Errr... *which* device? I've checked ttyS0, and according to "setserial",
it *is* configured. "ping", of course, reports "Network unreachable".
2) If I run "slattach -L 9600 ttyS0 &" (I think that's the syntax...) and
"ifconfig sl0 Odin pointopoint Loki up" followed by "route Loki" (as well as
the obvious complement on the other machine), I get no errors - but "ping"
just sits there, and when I ^-C out of it, reports 100% packet loss.
What I'd like to do is have a basic PPP connection between the two machines so
that my gf and I can play various network games. These machines are both on a
boat, so that they will never be hooked to the Net or anything other than each
other, so security is not an issue. I've tried using the cable via Norton
Commander in DOS - yep, works fine, I can transfer files, etc.
Anybody have an idea? I'd be really grateful...

We use characters from the series "Incarnations of Immortality", by
Piers Anthony on our internal (non-internet-accessible) LAN.
The domain we use internally is immortal.ca, and machines have names
like Charon, Thanatos, Clotho, Gaea, Atropos, Mars, Nox, Satan,
God, Jehova, etc.
Naming machines by function with their character names makes it
easier to remember what they do, as well. The Windows machine is
called Satan. The gateway to the 'net is called Charon (Charon is
the boatman who minds the River Styx, which is the crossing point
between purgatory and hell).
Cheers,
Wes
PS: It might be interesting to call the server "Marge", and see
how long it takes the feminists in your company to react.

Subject: Kernel 2.2.3 - How do I set up static routes to hosts?
Almost there with 223. I still need a way to set up static routes to
particular hosts. With the kernel doing the routing dynamically, they
either get dropped or change interface. I am currently running 2.0.36
with Gated for this purpose. I can drop gated if I can get this working.
Example:
I need to get to a ISP news server via ppp0 only. With 2.2.3, if
ppp0 is not up I get no such interface. If ppp0 is up, it adds the
route. Then when ppp0 drops, the routes revert to another interface.
I've looked at iproute2 and ip route but I'd like an example. PLEASE.
BTW Does anyone realize were getting routing code from Russia
(ftp.inr.ac.ru)? I also tried the gated R36A2 patches but I haven't
gotten them to work (config/compile fails) .
TIA

This smells like you need a static route for one or both of your subnets.
Take a look at the DHCP HowTo. I had to add (for my MS clients):
route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth1
to allow DHCPOFFER packets to be routed back to the client.

Check your /etc/conf.modules file for the right settings.
For example my /etc/conf.modules has the following settings:
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0x300 irq=9
where ne is the driver file ne.o

I had the same problem, I could ping localhost but nothing else. You need
to get the latest 3c95x.c from NASA (URL is in the source of 3c95x.c) and
compile and replace the .o module on your modules directory.
It should work then, but it will only work at 10M..

I'm building a system of Linux machines running on donated 486 hardware for

a network connection (ie. telnet). I just need to telnet to it and use a menu

That looks like a port scan... The time the machine was scanned might have been
around the same time that the logrotate script was set to run..
One thing to check is the version of the pop3d that you have. It is usually
distributed in the same package as the imap daemon, and due to the dramatic
increasing number of scans that I have seen looking for either imap or pop3
recently, I am wondering if there is an "unannounced" exploit for pop3 out
there..... [the pattern seen here as well seems to be exactly what was seen on this
scan]

Subject: Re: ISDN and Modememulation
Date: Tue, 16 Mar 1999 16:29:12 +1030
Some folks shaped electrons to say:
>>And is it true that vice versa a Modem-Client canīt dial in on my
>>PPP-Server, when Iīm using mgetty waiting on /dev/ttyI0?
>Yes.
The way I see it is that an ISDN card contains a hardware implementation
of a communications protocol. In Australia, we use ETSI ISDN (the same as
in Europe), so let's call it V.ETSI for now. Anything dialling into the
card using V.ETSI can establish a V.ETSI connection, and hence transfer
data at 64Kbps.
Unfortunately, most/all ISDN cards don't support V.90, V.34 and other
normal modem protocols, and hence we have a situation where two devices
are unable to communicate because they can't agree on a language (don't
support the same protocol).
Now, Linux talks to the ISDN card just like it were any other serial
communications device - it enables and configures the capabilities of the
card, but it doesn't extend them (except, perhaps, as far as Multilink-PPP
type technologies go). This means that it would be hard (but not
impossible) to develop software which takes the ISDN card's data stream
and runs it through a V.90 decoder/encoder.
(This is the same principle that was used by Apple with their GeoPort
modems - software implemented ITU V.blah standards - the hardware just sat
there and moved bits around. They ultimately dropped the idea because
keeping pace with new protocols was too expensive, and the burden that was
placed on the CPU was excessive.)
So, software-based modem emulation can be done, has been done, can work,
and could work - providing someone wanted to write it. Whether it's been
done for Linux or not I don't know. Whether the performance it is
acceptable, I don't know. Machines are a lot, lot faster now than they
were a few years ago, so the performance impact is smaller, and will get
even smaller as time moves on. It may very well be worth it, for
providing V.90 dial-up on a *very* small scale, but it would probably be
out of the question on a large (read ISP) scale.
It really depends on hardware issues beyond my expertise as to whether or
not software-implemented V.90 would even be accepted by regular V.ETSI
ISDN cards. If the signal itself is crucial to V.90, then the mere
presence of the ISDN card could make a software-based solution impossible.
All that said and done, digital modem cards which support multiple
protocols (V.ETSI, V.90, V.34...) are used by ISPs all the time. In
Australia, ISPs generally buy them in batches of 8 or 10, but I see no
reason why they couldn't be purchased individually. The downside to this
is that these cards fit into proprietary slots (made by Cisco,
Livingston...) - whether or not any of these are available in a PCI form
factor with open-source drivers is anybody's guess.
I did a bit of surfing while I was writing this and came across some pages
that may be of interest:
<http://www.shiva.com/prod/docs/lras457/netcon/re0107.htm>
<http://www.ascend.com/1082.html>
I, personally, would love to see a PCI digital modem card which plugged
right into a basic rate interface (2x64K B-Channels, and 1x16K D-Channel),
supported V.ISDN and V.90 (and perhaps even V.34 for backwards
compatibility), and which was not proprietary so that drivers could be
written for Linux to control either channel independently - now *that*
would be cool.

You don't have to, because if you set up IP Masq. your private network
will be transparent to the internet. Names are for humans, numbers are
for computers. DNS is to translate the human names to computer friendly
numbers. www.yahoo.com is a lot easier than 207.43.120.255 (just pulled

Bear in mind you only need Samba for file and printer sharing between
Linux and Win95. You can use the DSL without it.

I use configuration in which genericstable masquerading is
disabled for some mailers/domains. It can be easily extended
to also disable standard masquerading. I have tested it
with sendmail 8.8.7 and it works OK in my "production"
sendmail.
It can not be achieved by *.mc file only.
Tell me if you are interested.

Hi,
I'm using the 3c905B with the module 3c95x v0.99H ...
However, even though I set the media type to be 100baseT in winNT it still
goes to 10baset in Linux.
It says in messages..
eth0: 3Com 3c905B Cyclone........
Media override to transceiver type 0 (10baseT)
Enabling bus-master transmits and whole frame receives.
Is there anything I can do to make it work at 100 under linux?
Eric

Make sure rpc.mountd and rpc.nfsd are both running on all 3 hosts.
Use "rpcinfo -p [host]" to make sure both are registered with
portmapper too.

I had the same problem and it's not really solved until know.
But I got just an idea now: try using Tab's instead of spaces.

[This is a part of a message posted in the thread above]
When I try to configure the setting from "auto-detect" to "BNC (coax)" I get
the response "Your NIC is not connected to a BNC network" It doesn't matter
how high I shout "Yes it is!!" The comp doesn't get it... When I run the
program to auto-detect the network interface (what type of cable that is
used to connect the the network) I get the same error message.
BUT! The cable works! I've used the same cable to another comp and it woked
fine. The 3com NIC also works. I installed it in my win 98 comp. Works
great!
I've tried different NE2000 NICs in my linux box. But it seems like non of
them works. Can't get an eth0 interface no matter what I try. On my
win98/linux comp the card works fine. The 3com card is the first card that I
can get an eth0 interface with on the older (linux, P60) computer.
I've tried to install win95 on the linux box. But there is conflicts I can't
resolve with win95. BUT I can get network connectivity up an running
temorary..
One thing perhaps worth mentioning is that I can't use the built in SCSI
host on the P60 (192.168.1.4) computer. I have to use a PCI Tekram 390 card
in order to get linux installed!
