Debian dial in server -web access under squeeze
trying to create a dial in box from modem to Ethernet (LAN DSL) using IBM netvista P4 (2.26c 512mb) with external us robotics 56k modem on com2 System is using new Squeeze install (nuked the XP install on the system)- command line no gui-- need to connect a windows box using ppp to this server to use one of our extra IP address assignments (ISP provider simplybits) Server box will access the net thru eth0 (apt-get update/install works fine) windows machine can call and log in, can ping local address on box and access its Apache placeholder page I do not appear to be getting routing, or DNS services - IE explorer times out/ incorrect address, cannot ping external ip Most of the documentation on this is outdated / and or depreciated on doing this. (the last time I tried this was in DOS 25 years ago). And was not my idea just someone too cheap to buy an ISP service with enough pull at work to wrangle me into it.. and have allready spent a couple of days fussing with it. also setting like the /etc/ppp/options file ie MS-DNS, thanks Peter

Re: I want to set-up dial-up server
Use Pppconfig to configure the server for demand dialing and make it the gateway for all the other machines. You'll want to configure NAT and a fire wall. You may also want to set up Fetchmail to download mail and feed it to Exim or Postfix for delivery to the local machines, perhaps after virus and spam filtering. The server can also be your smarthost for outgoing mail. Other services to consider are Privoxy or similar for Web proxying and Leafnode or similar for news. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Install the modem on the Debian machine and get it working. To do the above run modconf on the Debian machine and ensure that, at least, the following are loaded (may be a little different with your kernel version ...); in kernel/drivers/net ppp_generic, ppp_async, slhc in kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter ip_tables, iptable_nat, ip_conntrack, ipt_LOG, ipt_MASQUERADE (I think that would be it?) apt-get install ppp pppconfig Go to http://freshmeat.net/projects/iptables-firewall/?topic_id=151 and grab a copy of Arno's Firewall script. It is well commented and contains Debian specific references. 2. Once your modem is working (using pon / poff on the Debian machine) apt-get install linesrv Go to either http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~sfuchs/LineControl/ or http://linecontrol.sourceforge.net/, download the Windows client (WLC) and windows docs. This allows Windows clients to open / close the connection. linesrv contains a Linux client (lcc - console based), there are some GUI ones at the above URL(s). I think that should do it.

ISDN Dial-in Server?
Hallo, alle zuammen! Gibt es irgendwo ein How-To wie man unter Debian (sarge) am besten einen Dial-in Server aufbauen kann? Hatte einiges schon bei google gefunden, aber das war immer nur fuer SuSE gedacht und mit yast umgesetzt. Was ich suche ist folgendes: Ich hab einen Rechner mit einer ISDN Karte (AVM Fritz, leider passiv) und moechte gerne einem User ermoeglichen sich von aussen einzuwaehlen (auch zweien wenns geht). Er soll dann eine IP, das Gateway und den Nameserver von meinem Einwahlrechner zugewiesen bekommen, damit er sich dann in dem Netz des Einwahlrechners bewegen kann und Zugriff auf die dahinterliegenden Rechner bekommt. Wie gesagt, hatte schon gesucht, aber irgendwie keine Erklaerung fuer Debian gefunden..

Re: dial-in server
Hi, For my dialin server setup problem, i just installed mgetty and ppp. I also made sure my modem is Linux friendly. There's no problem with that. Wvdialconf can detect it at ttyS0. In my /etc/mgetty/login.config, I enabled the /AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/ppd auth -chap +pap login -detach In my /etc/ppp/options.ttyS0, it has entry for the IPs. I also have /etc/ppp/pap-secrets which I use for authentication. In the /etc/inittab as suggested, I also have the /sbin/mgetty line. I also perform #kill -SIGHUP 1 to refresh the init. Now with my problem: 1. I'm using a W2K dial-up client, it doesn't connect to the dialin server. Error is port not connected. When I analyse the process, I've noticed that pppd doesn't fire up automatically as set in the /etc/mgetty/login.config file (/AutoPPP). This result (for what I think) to the error message of W2K dialler to port not connected. Could you please enlighten me about this? How come W2K client cannot connect to the dialin server?

They at least are honest about labeling their modems as such.Other makers label them as, Host-based modems, Controllerless Modems, the most notorious for issues, the chips for them are manufactured by PCTel, and sold under the name HSP (host signal processor) modems. These should be avoided at all costs. Even zoom manufacturers some. 1 - External modems are almost always hardware modems, the few exceptions use the USB interface. 2 - If a Modem states it supports DOS it is probably a hardware modem. However, some winmodem makers have caught on to this little trick and will says, Supports DOS within the Windows environment, ie it is a winmodem. 3 - Most internal modem makers make both soft/winmodems and hardware modems. Generally speaking anything under $45 is a soft modem, anything 45-60 could be a softmodem, and anything over $60 is a hardware modem. 4 - There are 4 parts to a modem, I forget exactly what they are, and a hardware modem has a chip or chips that peform all 4 functions, software modems have at least 1 function fulfilled by software. The partial soft modems are often the cause of the biggest headaches for people setting them up under Linux. They will often do things like dial, but not handshake. 5 - There are some drivers available for softmodems under Linux, but I have not got them to work as reliable as a hardware modem in any instance I have tried.

Re: dial-in server - modems
hi ya nathan yuppers... the good modems i was referrng to are those that have - a uart chip ( 16550 or equivalent uart ) - if you do NOT see a uart, stay away from it cause it probably is a software modem and brings lots of fun with it for those that like to get into the gory winmodem details, rick has some rants on winmodems and more detailed references http://www.linuxmafia.com/~rick/faq/#internalmodem c ya alvin http://www.Linux-Consulting.com/PPP_Server On Tue, 8 Oct 2002, D.

Mgetty - Dial-in Server - LAN access -- HELP
OK, I have gotten mgetty pppd to permit me to dial in and authenticate on my server (see previous posts for further details). However, an obvious reason why I can access other computers on the LAN would seem to be this: Our network structure is 10.0.0.1-254, netmask 255.255.255.0 (BTW, isn't that more simply written 10.0.0.0/24?) However, upon logging in the client is assigned by pppd 10.0.0.16 (which is correct), but the netmask is 255.0.0.0 (although I have a line in the options.server for the correct netmask). Further, the ppp0 listing in ifconfig is: inet addr: 10.0.0.10 (server address), P-t-P: 10.0.0.16, Mask 255.255.255.255 why?

Check your /etc/passwd and add any # other accounts that should not be able to use pppd! guest fliwatut* - master fliwatut* - rootfliwatut* - support fliwatut* - stats fliwatut* - # OUTBOUND connections # your stuff here [...] --- The last file to check is /etc/mgetty/login.config The line starting with /AutoPPP/ should be uncommented and read something like: /AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth +pap -chap login -detach ^ this can also be 'a_ppp' or just an '@' and you maybe don't need the -detach option. -= THE SMOKE TESTS =- On the client side there should be no further configuration necessary. Just make a new dialup connection to your debian machine as described in /usr/doc/ppp/win95.ppp Now watch incoming calls in the following two places: /var/log/mgetty/mg_ttyS0.log * should show mgetty starting the pppd Example: [...] 02/08 15:58:40 yS0 tio_set_flow_control( HARD ) 02/08 15:58:40 yS0 print welcome banner (/etc/issue) 02/08 15:58:40 yS0 getlogname (FIDO AUTO_PPP), read:~[ff]}#[c0]! 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 input finished with '\r', setting ICRNL ONLCR 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 tio_get_rs232_lines: status: RTS CTS DSR DTR DCD 02/08 15:58:42 yS0login: use login config file /etc/mgetty/login.config 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 match: user='/AutoPPP/', key='' 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 match: user='/AutoPPP/', key='' 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 match: user='/AutoPPP/', key='/AutoPPP/'*** hit! 02/08 15:58:42 yS0 calling login: cmd='/usr/sbin/pppd', argv[]='pppd auth +pap -chap login -detach' 02/08 15:58:42 # data dev=ttyS0, pid=1063, caller='none', conn='33600/LAPM/V42BIS', name='', cmd='/ usr/sbin/pppd', user='/AutoPPP/' [...] /var/log/ppp.log * shows the gory details of two pppds talking to each other, checking passwords and negotiating IP adresses. One last tip: If you can do, then try dialing into the debian machine from another debian or linux system. You will get a lot more debuging info this way. Hope this helps.

Dial in Server Problem
Hi all I'm trying to use Debian Linux as a ppp dial in server for Win95 clients. I'm able to login into the linux box only if I have the - Bring terminal window after dialing - check box checked. If this checkbox is off the line goes down after a while. If I login using the terminal window I'm stucked inside a very small window and cannot interact with my win95 system. How can I assign a IP address to the caller's interface? How can I be validated using AutoPPP? How to avoid the terminal window? Which log files can I send to the list to get some help? I've read a lot of files, followed some examples but still missing something on the authentication side. Thanks in advance Jorge Sousa IPJ - Instituto Portugues da Juventude Gab. Informatica Av.

net-acct and a ppp dial-in server
Hi, I've been trying to get nacctd to work with a dial-in server. To get traffic figures per user I need to create lookup files in /var/run, each one is named with the remote IP and contains the username of whoever is using that address. pppd will delete the files after the user has logged off, that's easy, as ppp has a setting for a command to run on disconnection. It's creating the files that's driving me crazy. I tried this script from mgetty instaed of just the call to pppd: #!/bin/bash /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login defaultroute proxyarp whereisuser=`w | grep $1 | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 2 ` addressuser=`grep $whereisuser /etc/hosts | expand | tr -s ' ' | \ cut -d ' ' -f 1` echo $1 /var/run/$addressuser and the clients can dial-in OK, but the latter part (from wherisuser on) doesn't get run until the client logs out (ie after pppd dies), so the greps fail and no file is written. Before the pppd there is no way of telling who the user is ( Just AutoPPP!). I need to know how much traffic each user is generating, as I suspect that some are setting up servers at home that are just a bit illegal here in sunny Queensland (come to Queensland and turn the clock back 25 years!). Surely someone somewhere has got nacctd working with mgetty and ppp for dynamic IP. Any suggestions at all are welcome, as I'm starting to really hate this machine!

Re: net-acct and a ppp dial-in server
I've been trying to get nacctd to work with a dial-in server. To get traffic figures per user I need to create lookup files in /var/run, each one is named with the remote IP and contains the username of whoever is using that address. Unless the code has been patched I wouldn't bother with this. We went and set all this up quite a while ago (as far as I know nothing has been added to this program for *well* over a year though I haven't looked recently) and found that the code in nacctd was buggy. I didn't seem to update the mapping between users and the dynamic IP number so it became all but useless. If you give out static IP#'s it *should* work okay but I'm not positive. You should be able to do everything you want (ie. monitor per user volume) with ipfwadm installed in the kernel though I'm not sure exactly how.

Before the pppd there is no way of telling who the user is ( Just AutoPPP!). yes, that is normal behaviour - pppd is being run in the foreground (with control of the tty) in this situation, so the remainder of the script doesn't execute until pppd exits. That's how it's supposed to be, so don't waste any time trying to get pppd to run in the background. One of pppd's features is the ability to run a script when a link is established and another when it is terminated. These are the 'ip-up' and 'ip-down' scripts, and they reside in the /etc/ppp directory. you need to edit your /etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ppp/ip-down scripts. the documentation for net-acct tells how to do it for slip logins...it's not very difficult to apply the same principles for ppp. try adding something like: /usr/bin/whoami /var/run/$5 to /etc/ppp/ip-up, and add: rm /var/run/$5 to /etc/ppp/ip-down this is the bare minimum you need to get it working. NOTE: these changes are untestedhowever, from my understanding of the docs, they should work. craig -- craig sanders networking consultant Available for casual or contract temporary autonomous zone system administration tasks. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
