need some help on ibm whistler = interjetII
hi! i´ve an interjetII and i´ve heard, that it´s possible toget root-access via telnet on the freebsd operating system by pressing a special combination of keys. i´m just a student and i can´t spend my money on a special corporation to get this hepl. and i was just a lucky coincidence to get the interjet form my ex-firm i worked beside my study (the firm go bust ;-) ). so please help me! i also were fine, if anyone could tell me, if (and how) i can replace freebsd with windows ;-) many greetings sorry for my english!

Re: need some help on ibm whistler = interjetII
u if you have an IJ-II then you must be leasing it from IBM. And IMB is ending all teh leases and recalling them. They never sold them as far as I know.. no wait you are in .de.. hmmm that may be different.. the best way is to take out the disk. put it on a freeBSD system edit /etc/tty to turn on the serial console.. While the OS is in fact FreeBSD.. (4.4 at the latest upgrade avaliable I believe) I don't think that people here would know of any such cookies.. I wouldn't mind a IJ-II myself actually.. nice machine as a boundary firewall and router for the home.. Why do you think you need root access.?

Re[2]: need some help on ibm whistler = interjetII
hi! ok, that may helps a little... i want the root access, because i´ve a dsl-internet-connection, and i isn´t supported by the ij-package at now. so i hope, that i can activate the dsl-feature with root access. i hope, you are not rolling over the floor laughing ;-) perhaps, you know a better (low-cost) solution, that i finally can use the ij as router/firewall/ftp-server(/mail-server???). btw: i´ve no static ip :-) another handicap (i think)... good n8! benjamin To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message

The IJ-II (in it's newer releases of software) supported PPPoE DSL connections.. Unfortunatly you have NO HOPE of turining it on if you get to root as everything is controlled from a database and not standard flat files. You need to do it through the web interface. (maybe the LCD) do you know what release of the software you have? do you have PPPoE on your DSL? is it attached by ethernet? Do you have the manuals? If you have looked in the interface and see no PPPoE or DSL mentioned and you have an old release, you may be able to upgrade the software to get PPPoE If you don't know how to upgrade, (you should have received instructions with the machine) the latest version for .de is: -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 34843407 Sep 6 2001 4.3.cpio.gz.e -rw-r--r-- 1 0 099 Sep 6 2001 4.3.cpio.gz.e.md5 on the whistle ftp site.. in the directory /interjet/de I don't know what the encryption key for .de releases was though.. whoever administered it before should know.. or maybe another ex-whistle person can tell you. good n8! benjamin To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message

By the way.. IJ-II's in .de were leased from IBM via Deutche Telecom so theoretically it's stolen property.. IBM is recalling them and destroying them however.. pitty... nice product.

They never sold them as far as I know.. no wait you are in .de.. hmmm that may be different.. They sold them in Japan. They may have sold them internationally, otherwise, as well, but I don't think so. The sales in Japan were CPE sales to NTT DoCoMo. the best way is to take out the disk. put it on a freeBSD system edit /etc/tty to turn on the serial console.. While the OS is in fact FreeBSD..

I wouldn't mind a IJ-II myself actually.. nice machine as a boundary firewall and router for the home.. Why do you think you need root access.? Probably the same reason you think you need root access on your UNIX machines. 8-). There's a company that will root InterJets for $50. They also replace (in IJ I's) the 10Mbit network card with 10/100Mbit, and will upgrade the IJ I's 28K modem to 56K (not usually useful, since you can't sync 56K if you are going through a PBX). And they will upgrade your memory (not always a good idea on an IJ I, unless you can get the right memory sticks with the tin, not the gold contacts). You can find it with a Yahoo search fairly easily. Julian, Archie, and I, and Mark Peek, and Evan Oldford, and ... all know the magic root password. But we can't tell you, or we'd have to kill you, since there are thousands of places that are still using them. Sorry about the telnet... I can tell you how to turn it on, but since you don't have a Whistle, Inc. Engineering network IP address, it's not going to do you any good. 8-). Well, it would let you in from the office net, I guess, but no remote maintenance, if that's what you are looking for... If Mark Peek is still with IBM these days (he hasn't told us he's not), then he probably still has full source code for the thing. Mark, are you listening? Put PMTA out on Developerworks, please! 8-). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message

THe answer is that that's a subscription key controlled feature, and costs more money to activate. You have to download a key as part of the ACL configuration talking to your NOC, and to do that, basically someone at the NOC provider has to put key codes into Commander (the database at the NOC). Having root access wouldn't give you a cryptographically correct key signature that matches the public key on the InterJet itself. Probably the easiest thing to do would be to put a DSL modem on the permiter network, and beg Archie to tell you how to dump and reload the existing ACL to set your default route out the permiter neteork, rather than the WAN interface. I could tell you more, but I'd have to kill you. 8-). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message
