eject modem
Hi all, I have a sagem fast 800 (ueagle-atm) module on my gateway. I have difficulties to synchronize because i'm far (very far) from the dslam. So, when it loses synchronisation, the modem can take hours before re-sync. Sometimes, it can't sync and I get error messages like these ones : Oct 6 11:49:20 localhost kernel: ATM dev 0: usbatm_complete: urb 0xcb2f2cc0 failed (-71)! Oct 6 11:49:20 localhost kernel: usb 1-1: [UEAGLE-ATM] uea_intr() failed with -84 Oct 6 11:49:20 localhost kernel: ATM dev 0: usbatm_complete: urb 0xcb2f2ac0 failed (-71)!

I would like to be able to eject with a script the modem. So, i will scan every minute my syslog and when it found an error, the script will be launch. I have tried a script months ago that unload the module (and the usb module) but it doesn't work, it seems it doesn't find a new hardware (no new usb event on syslog). Is there a way to eject the hardware (via udev or anything else) ? Thanks in advance, Christophe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Traffic Mirroring for Debugging
Why don't you bridge the interfaces of 192.168.1.10 ? In that case, you need to reconfigure client to point to 192.168.1.20 and you can sniff your network via the 192.168.1.10 machine ? Hope this helps, Christophe Volkan YAZICI a écrit : Hi, In one of our servers, I want to debug a network server daemon. The problem is I don't have luxury for a downtime or to iterrupt related server's network traffic. Current routing structure looks like below. VPN Switch (192.168.1.1) - Server Machine (192.168.1.2) To debug the related server daemon, I planned to redirect the network traffic to a second sandbox server. Planned routing structure is: VPN Switch (192.168.1.1) | +- Temporary Linux Machine (192.168.1.10) || |+- Server Machine (192.168.1.2) +-- Sandbox Server Machine (192.168.1.20) For test purposes, I configured a client to connect to 192.168.1.10 (instead of actual server, 192.168.1.2). But I couldn't manage to redirect incoming traffic of 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.2.20 machines. How can I get such a mirrored redirection? Furthermore, I first considered using DNAT of iptables, but learnt that it doesn't support multiple destinations without load-balancing. Anyway, I wanted to give it a try for just a single machine. I connected to 1.10 machine and typed below iptables command: # iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.1.10 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.20 # iptables -L -n -t nat Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination DNAT 0-- 0.0.0.0/0192.168.1.10 to:192.168.1.20 Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination And started a netcat listener on 1.20 machine: # nc -l -p 2310 Then tried to connect to the started nc listener from 1.10 machine: # nc -vvv 192.168.1.10 2310 192.168.1.10: inverse host lookup failed: Unknown host (UNKNOWN) [192.168.1.10] 2310 (?) : Connection refused sent 0, rcvd 0 Gosh!

Re: Traffic Mirroring for Debugging
I suppose you have multiples interfaces on your 192.168.1.10. Normally, you have multiple IP addresses on your 192.168.1.10, one address for each interface. If you bridge interfaces, all your interfaces will have one and only one IP address 192.168.1.10. If you prefer, your machine (192.168.1.10) will work as switch. You can see the beginning of this article (no need to use the firewall part, use only D1 or D2 depending on your configuration): http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ap-bridge-fw.en.html Search also on google with debian+bridge. I'm french and I have many links but only in my language.

Is bridging in the way you mentioned capable of doing such a thing? Regards. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: net problem, some apps not connecting
hi, hum, it looks like a ttl or mtu problem. Do you use PPPoA for your internet connection ? Try to open a google page with a web browser. If it works, enter a word for a search (it should work) and now click on one of the links (it should not work). If all this works, you have a mtu problem. I don't have here the solution but i may be something like this to add to your gateway firewall : $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu It can also be a ttl problem. I'm not a specialist but you can search on the debian-amd64 mailing list on april 2008 the subject NAT and IPTABLES problem. It can help you if the first method doesn't work.

Not sure if it's the proper way but you can add the following line into
the file ~/.fluxbox/init:

In this file you can add the commands you want to run after fluxbox is

Re: Preventing IP conflict
T o n g a écrit : Second check, as Douglas said, that the mac address are the same under the 2 OS . . . I haven't got around to reboot into window$ and check yet. But I believe that they are the same. I'll post immediately if otherwise. When your problem come back, use the command i gave you (under windows or under Linux according the case) and report immediatly the information to the network administrator. At this time, it can search on the network where the ip address is used from another machine. Can I do that myself from my Linux box? I remember seeing Window$ hacking SW to bomb another box to dead blue screen. How I wish those tools are available under Linux now. :-) The network administrator should have tools to detect the problem but you can try this method (i never use it when i have an ip conflict) First : launch ifconfig and see your ip address/netmask. I assume that is 192.168.1.2 with a netmask 255.255.255.0 Second : launch nmap 192.168.1.0-255 (adapt according your ip and netmask). I take some minutes (less than 5 in most of cases). This method works if the machine on the network don't block each reply from nmap, but i think it's so if your network adminstrator did his job ;) Now you will see each ip used on your network. Third : Switch to a static address that has not been listed by nmap and see if you have problem. If you have one, try another till you find temporary a ip address which is not used Fourth : in root, do arp 192.168.1.2(your first ip address which gives the conflict). Normally, it will show you its mac address. With this one, you can see your network administrator. I repeat that i never used this method with an ip conflict. I may not work but if it works, i'm glad to know it. Hope this helps, Christophe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Preventing IP conflict
T o n g a écrit : Hi, It's now the third time that I bumped into such situation. All of sudden I suffer from network delay and package lost, can't ping DNS server but can ping some IPs that is connecting to my box. I have suspected my cable, kernel version, etc, etc, and until today, after rebooting into Window$ and noticing the warning message, did I realize that all above is caused by IP conflict -- there is another box on the network using the same IP address as mine. We know it is definitely because of the malfunctioning of our organization's DNS server. But if I report it to our technical services, I know for sure that I am the person to be blamed: Why are you using Linux? We are primarily a Window$ shop here. Linux is not supported. That's the life that I have to live in. I'm wondering if there is anything at my end that can prevent/eliminate the problem. Thanks Hi, Don't confuse DHCP and DNS. DNS is a protocol which transform adress name in ip address (www.google.fr-209.85.137.104 for example). When you are on a network, there are two ways to have an IP address : static or via DHCP. As it was said by Douglas, if you have a problem under windows, it is not a linux problem but a network problem. First, as Alex ask, do you use dhcp or static ip ? under windows and under linux ? Second check, as Douglas said, that the mac address are the same under the 2 OS In windows, start a console (execute cmd command under xp to launch it) and enter ipconfig /all In Linux, start a root console and enter ifconfig Check also the ip address at this time (it can be used later). When your problem come back, use the command i gave you (under windows or under Linux according the case) and report immediatly the information to the network administrator. At this time, it can search on the network where the ip address is used from another machine. Beware of laws too. In some businesses, if it's windows on all the machines, it can be a contract and they can't use Linux while the contract lives. So the network administrator may not help you in that case or it can be dismiss. Hope this helps Christophe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Intel Pro network
My first idea, i had such a error with a static ip. The problem came from a ctrl+space character I think or such a thing. Clean you /etc/network/interfaces with the lines you have for eth0 and rewrite them. Then verify if ifconfig eth0 up works. Second idea, udev may not create eth0 instantly (I doubt). Have you tried ifconfig eth0 up at starting, after 5minutes, after 1 hour ? Third idea, kernel problem. Have you tried another kernel ? If you can, try with a Knoppix CD to see if another kernel version works better. Hope this helps.

Do you have a connect light on the NIC or on whatever the other end of the cable goes to? I have an ADSL connection and for the last two months (since I installed Etch) it was working fine. If I reboot to windows it works fine, when I came back it doesn't work, so I guess it is a software problem in Etch. I have another computer on the same connection running Etch and it also works fine 2 ) Have you updated your etch system between the last working etch and the actual etch ? Have you changed the kernel ? 3 ) If you use ipv4 (classic ip address type), try in windows to launch a ms-dos console and enter the ipconfig command. Note the ip address, netmask and gateway And try a /etc/network/interfaces config file as this followind one : auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address put here the ip address without the quotes netmask put here the netmask without the quotes gateway put here the gateway without the quotes Then do /etc/init.d/networking restart and try to ping another machine on your network (gateway for example). Tell us if it works or not. Do you know the network topography or the IP of the dhcp server? Can you ping it from your laptop? Can you ping anything from your laptop? I know the IP of DHCP server and I cannot ping anything: connect: Network is unreachable It could be a problem with the dhcp server and not with your laptop. Do you also control the dhcp server? What do its logs show. Do they show a request from your laptop? If other computer and OS works I guess it is not the problem of DHCP server. thanks Mitja Hopes this help Christophe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Debian only sees 885.5 MiB memory
I remember an old option in kernel that asked you which size of ram you think to be used. This option seems to have disappeared now. If you want a 2.6.11 kernel, try to compile the kernel and search for such an option...

My 'system monitor' shows ~885mb. check out your BIOS settings. :-) -- Arijit Sarkar Kolkata, India That's interesting. I was booted up in Lenny using the 2.6.11 kernel, and usually see Gkrellm showing 885Mb of my 1Gb RAM. I've since rebooted with the 2.6.17 kernel , and with that kernel, Gkrellm is showing the full 1005Mb of RAM. The onboard graphics card is a Cyberbladei1 (trident driver). Quite why booting with the 2.6.11 shows 885Mb, and booting with the 2.6.17 shows 1005Mb is a bit bizarre. Probably some kernel thingy.

As I was saying, I can see during the bootup that the network cards are not started, but I can't tell why, so I'm therefore also unable to access the machine per remote SSH. OK -- have you tried booting with init=/bin/sh? I'm betting you still won't be able to type, but it might be worth a try. You could also try booting a live CD and using it to examine the system logs for clues about what's happening. Here's another thought: have you been loading the USB/network modules from /etc/modules or from udev/hotplug? Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] Um, how do I set the boot option init=/bin/sh if I can't access the machine? Well, I can't tell from where the USB/network modules are loading from. Is this a difference between kernels 2.6.8 and 2.6.18? I guess I'll probably have to use a Live CD, I was hoping though that maybe somebody on the list already knows right where the problem is. Robert The init=/bin/sh could be modified during the OS choice (grub ou lilo) if you have one. With grub, edit the boot option with e and modify the launch line with e too, add at the end of line init=/bin/sh and valid by enter then boot with b. With lilo, just select the boot option and add at the end of line init=/bin/sh. This solution is available if you have a boot menu and if your keyboard is detected... Be careful that nothing is mounted except the root partition which is in read-only mode. /proc filesystem isn't mounted too !!! I can suggest you to boot with a liveCD and paste here log files as /var/log/syslog for example. If you have a initrd, you should use it. You can create a shell script (with liveCD) and launch it at boot time with init=/path/to/shell/script. This script can be use to load modules, make pause to see the errors, and try to store datas somewhere (usb disk ?). Don't forget to chmod u+x the script shell or you will need a new liveCD boot (believe my experience) Hope this can help you Christophe _ Don’t miss your chance to WIN $10,000 and other great prizes from Microsoft Office Live http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/aub0540003042mrt/direct/01/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Preventing delayed USB writes
Hi, I use gkrellm with the default plugin systemfile. It allows you mount and unmount the drives you have specified with a button. The other advantage is that, if you mount the partition with another tool, gkrellm will detect it and still can be use to unmount it. Another information that can be interesting : gkrellm show you the space used on the partition (with number or graphical), so you can evaluate the space left on your drive. I have also fully migrated to Linux there is 4-5 years and my wife uses this method. I learn to to my brother, my mother, ... everyone understand, it is not difficult. The big disavantage for gkrellm, in your case, is that it will not displayed only the mounted tool but the %cpu, the disk activity, ethernet activity, You can disactive theses options but i am not sure that all can be swith off at the same time.

Yes, I wait. Yes, I also wait. Because KDE doesn't give the user any indication of how long to wait, the user has to drop to a terminal, run a sync command, and wait for the prompt to come back to get any indication of when it is ok to remove. You may want to take a look at Gnome. In Gnome, removable devices are handled like this: an icon appears on the desktop when the device is inserted. When you're done with the device, you click on the icon and select safely remove. A window pops up saying removing device... or somesuch, and when it goes away it's safe to remove your device (and the icon on the desktop is gone). I don't use Gnome much except as an xterm launcher, so I can't say more than that, but it looks like this aspect is pretty well-designed. I couldn't believe that KDE doesn't do something like this nowadays -- Gnome has been doing this for at least a couple years IIRC -- so I downloaded and installed KDE on my desktop to try it out. Apparently the only way to get an icon for your removable device is to click on the services tab (intuitively represented by ... a flag?), which shows attached devices under storage media and lets you safely remove the device. A little green triangle disappears after the device is unmounted, which I didn't even notice until I'd mounted/unmounted it several times. So, the functionality is present in both UIs, but KDE has chosen a rather obtuse way of getting at it, IMO. Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
