have any of you ever heard of or used a RAID controller
that is capable of "RAIDing" with IDE disks? Is there
suuport for a card like this in Linux?
  
   A couple of years ago, I saw a hardware RAID controller which
  presented to
   the host SCSI as a disk but used multiple IDE drives for storage (thus
   implementing the "I" in RAID ;-).
  
   Once set up, such a gizmo *should* look like a regular SCSI
 disk to the
   system and thus pose no compatibility problems.
  
   Sorry, I can't find any references to this beastie nor do I know the
   requirements for setting it up nor if there might be any compatibility
   issues lurking in there.  Anyone else got a pointer?
 
  We use one here. It's a RAID5 setup with 6 IDE drives, which
  appear as a regular
  SCSI disk to a linux box. Physically, it's a 4U box with
  hotswappable drives.
  The box itself handles all the RAID duties. Works flawlessly
 now (had some
  issues setting it up, as the original box was damaged in transit, but we
  received excellent support from ICP).
 
  The company concerned who produce these boxes are ICP
 (Industrial Computer
  Products), based in Australia (sorry to all you international
  people). Their
  website has details on their product offerings at http://www.icp.net.au.

Hi all!
Just wondering what most people do for customer IP addresses.  I am new to
the ISP business and the system that I have taken over assigns routable ip's
to customers via DHCP.  I was just wondering if anyone used private IP's and
applied NAT to their customers or if that can even be done.

Sure, NAT is easy to apply to customers.  But it is a lower quality of
service (they can't run servers, and custom programs may not work through
NAT).  If they have an implied contract which involves real IP addresses then
applying NAT to them would be a breach of contract.

I have worked for ISPs that offer various types of service, some of which had
NAT.  At one ISP they paid more because it was part of a service to protect
users from accessing pr0n sites.  ;)

How do you apply IPs via DHCP anyway?

We provide wireless high speed internet. The customers have a cable modem
in their home that connects to an antenna on their roof.  It is a microwave
signal to our tower, that gets translated into ethernet in our tower hut, we
then have a linux box running DHCPD right before the customer hits the
router.  They must give us their mac address and we place that in the
DHCPD.CONF file and allow only known hosts.

Interesting.  Have you ever had a problem with people spoofing MAC addresses
to get IP's?  How does your system react if more than one host presents a
request for an IP if that MAC has already been assigned an IP?  Seems like
if they're going to the trouble to give you the MAC address you might as
well give them fixed ip's.  Do you have more customers than IP's?  Have you
ever had anybody try to scram your network? :)
