[Dx4win] Staying Connected to TELNET

2002-11-05 Thread WA9ALS - John
Some have suggested checking your email every 5 minutes (?), and DX Telnet
works with DX4WIN and has the Keep Alive function.  I'd be interested in
knowing if you have that problem with the K1TTT cluster.  It seems VERY
stable to me - I use satellite, and rarely ever get disconnected, even
without using DXT's Keep Alive.

2002-11-05 Thread Phil Buckholdt
Hi All

 There is a keep alive function in the AR Cluster nodes if the sysop has
it turned on. The K1TTT node does not have it activated. To check try the
K8SMC node at 198.109.212.235

 I had he same problem staying connected during low activiy hours, even
with email checking every 8 minutes.

There are many different node softwares and each node is slightly different.
I have had no complaints from users at my node getting dropped. I run a
DXSpider Node. The node is an open node, please login and give it a try.

I have noticed that normally I lose my connection in about an hour.

My experiments indicate that the reason is that somehow Telnet attracts
a swarm of attempted connections from various unknown urls that overload the 
ability of
Telnet to keep itself alive.

Various methods of sending keep alive signals have made no difference.

I maintain two machines - one is Linux.  If I establish a Telnet connection 
under DX4Win
and set the Linux machine to monitor connections using tcpdump which is 
included in most
Linux distributions, I can clearly see the attempted connections building up - 
to as many as hundreds per second!

This is a classic DOS (Denial of Service) attack.  Most people would be unaware 
of the attack
unless they are running an analysis tool like tcpdump.

I've tried nearly a dozen different Telnet sites - the result has always been 
the same.
That is why I'm looking for a good http site that does automatic refreshes.

My connection is a 24 hour cablemodem (Time-Warner of Austin TX RoadRunner)
and I think that kind of connection is attractive to the kind of people doing 
this.
They can easily tell it's Time-Warner from the first few digits of the IP 
address.

Many have complained about the difficulty of keeping their Telnet connection 
up.  
Hope this information helps others.

problem staying connected.  I did earlier, do to the way it was
connected to my laptop, but that's another issue.  I have the clusters
that I use, set up to be pinged every 10 minutes as a keep alive. 
And, it works like a charm.

[Dx4win] Staying Connected to TELNET

2002-11-05 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Larry Alkoff)
Ted I've been wondering why I have had problems and you don't.

I'm also behind a router and the windows computer also has
the ZoneAlarm firewall
but that has not seemed to stop the DOS attacks.
It's not a D-Link (Ugate 3000) but I've looked at the D-link and others
and they are all pretty much the same.


I'm experimenting with a new system that may eliminate the 
unwanted connections from various unknown urls.
It's a Linux system with a very cool program called Win4Lin 
which allows you to actually _install_  Windows 98 so that it and windows
programs are actually running under Linux - but they don't really know it.

The best thing is that Windows then uses the networking facilities of Linux
including a special stateful firewall that only allows connections to come in 
from the Internet if related to something I have initiated.
This may stop all the DOS type interference because they are all initiated
from the outside and should not be permitted through the firewall.

It's running now and I should know in a day or so.
My goal is to end up with a Telnet connection for spots that runs for weeks at 
a time!

Hi Larry,

I think the main reason that I don't loose my cluster connections is
because I use the ping (Stay Alive) option of DX-Telnet.  Even on slow
spot days, it pings once ever 10 minutes and keeps the connection
active.  I can stay connected for a VERY long time this way.

Hi Jim,

It all depends on the filtering that you have setup on your nodes, and
what kind of activity there is, and what good old Sol is up to.  When
the solar indexes are bad, I've seen an hour go by without a spot, I
only look at North America and HF.  I use W8GN, K8SMC, and others. 
So, yes there can be little traffic at times.

In my layman's view In the US, the cheap internet connections, 
including broadband ones such as cable internet, frequently use 
dynamically-assigned IP addresses that are leased to the user for a set 
period.  In my case, though, it appears that I keep the same IP address and 
it is automatically renewed, as long as I'm not logged off when the lease 
expires.  Then all bets are off.  Also, my cable ISP does not allow me to 
maintain a server on my machine anyway.


I know of one case, at least, where the cost for the identical 
non-broadband connection speed, but with a fixed IP address, was quoted at 
something like 3x greater.

is
 somewhat slow, I seem to get disconnected. During peak times such as
 contests I stay connected just fine. I understand there is a so called
keep
 alive option either in DX4WIN or some other outside source. The idea is
to
 keep the traffic moving. If windows isn't seeing any traffic from you,
(some
 ISP's as well.) disconnect you so others can use the IP you were on. Is
 there a setting in DX4WIN using the TCP/IP setting with this so called
keep
 alive feature? Please advise. TNX, 73 STU

[Dx4win] Staying Connected to TELNET

2002-11-05 Thread William Liporace - NA2NA
I have to agree with Jim, before I created my node, I was rarely ever booted
off (dial up days). Of course now, I am never booted off. Of course today
there has been two new users who I believe have been connected all day. They
other is on almost always connected anyways

Anyone is welcome to na2na.homedns.org node

 Are you guys on nodes with very little traffic?

 I can connect to W1GQ, KE9KD and K8SMC (also N2TX before it moved) for
days at
 a time, and I'm not actively pinging the connection.  In fact, I have two
 computers connected to two different nodes while I'm at work all day (one
 wired, one wireless). The only time I lose a connection is if the remote
node
 goes down, or something happens to my router or cable modem.  Using ATT
 Broadband Internet.

 I don't filter out much besides the stuff above 2 meters.  I like to see
spots
 from all over the world.

I'm connected to an AB5K ARCluster node.  We get a lot of traffic, basically 
all US and Canada.
