You can always use jail(4) in conjunction with the separate IP address, like 
tap(4) or lo(4) whic can be aliased.
Then you can provide any kind of internet access for your wine-drunk jail 
environment ;-)
Oh, and... you can use the / as a root for your jail. You need to restrict the 
access of the application(s) to your internet interface(s) only, right?

I think you might have left out some important information we could use
to better help you.

Are you talking about the ISP Juno?  (Do they still exist?)

Are you in the US?

Are you asking about how to connect to your ISP via a dial-up connection?
I think most of us are using DSL or cable broadband, so people may not be
making the same assumptions about what "connect to the Internet" as what
you expect.

What is a "take-off" copy of FreeBSD?  Do you perhaps mean a LiveCD -- a
CD on which a bootable install of FreeBSD exists, so you can boot into
FreeBSD on the CD, but then take out the CD and reboot into whatever OS
is installed on the computer's hard drive?

I'm making some wild guesses here, because I really don't know what
you're asking.  Please help us clarify your needs so we can help you
satisfy them.

It's a bit unclear what you're asking, but it sounds like you want
help regarding more recent versions of freeBSD and their capabilities.
Have you looked at www.freebsd.org and the documentation there?

I'm not sure what a book about freeBSD would have that the official
documentaioin wouldn't.

Weird. Did you try "Internet"?

>> Can I access the internet with a currently gettable copy of FreeBSD

If I understand correctly, you're asking if you can use FreeBSD to
access the Internet? If so...yes. Any version will do! If you're
referring to using a web browser and such, then you'll have to install
those yourself, but it's not difficult.

I have no experience with this 'juno', so I can't help there. Perhaps

internet access from FreeBSD

2009-09-22 Thread gs_stol...@juno.com
 I have a copy of Greg Lehey's online "book" about FreeBSD, but I 
believe it is from February 2006.  Is there a later copy, and if so, where can 
I find a copy (URL please)?  I searched my copy for the word "internet" and 
couldn't find it.  I did access the internet with a take-off copy of FreeBSD, 
but I don't have access to it any more.  Can I access the internet with a 
currently gettable copy of FreeBSD, and if so, for what versions is that true 
(my personal version is old, but it works well so I never upgraded)?  Since I 
get my mail via  juno , can I access them nicely from FreeBSD or do I need 
something to interface to it and present me with my mailbox, listing the items 
in it and telling me the usual stuff about envelop mail (sender, subject, when 
received)?

Looks like an USB issue: If you execute the following commands like the Super

One possibility is  using something other than fetch, take a look at  
FETCH_CMD and the other FETCH_*  variables in 
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk.

No, most people who have proxies that allow them to fetch from the
internet have DNS servers that let them resolve the internet - that's
a very weird setup you have there, and not very useful, as you have
discovered.

Try putting in the following in /etc/make.conf

FETCH_ENV=      FTP_PROXY=http://userid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080
FETCH_ENV=      HTTP_PROXY=http://userid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080

To be honest, haven't tried it with authentication but the above would
be the correct way to make use of a proxy for ports.

Well, yeah, but then you might as well not bother with a proxy...

That sounds like a bug to me - I guess most people use fetch with proxies
so the proxy will cache the distfiles rather than to allow isolated machines
to get on the network, which might explain why it's not been spotted before?

If the proxy's address is the only address fetch tries to resolve, it maybe 
could help, if you modify common.c in libfetch. Add "hints.ai_flags = 
AI_NUMERICHOST;" before the getaddrinfo calls (line# 244 anf 275). This 
should disable DNS resolving (assuming you set proxy-url to a numeric host as 
mentioned above).

I wouldn't be so hard on the fetch command.  If you don't have external
DNS resolution then a lot of things won't work.  I was once stuck in an
office with limited http/ftp access, thus, no fetch command.  I did
have browser http access after I authenticated to Novell's BorderMangler.
I manually retrieved the tar balls I needed for each port I wanted to
install.  It was painfully, slow, and I never got all the tar balls I
needed because I wasn't good at following the dependencies.

You may want to consider doing a "make fetch" on a machine that has
unhindered access, then burning those tar balls to a CD-ROM.

If you have ssh access out through the firewall, you can tunnel DNS (and
http/ftp) requests through a *well-connected* Unix host.

actually, since I was in csh, the setenv FTP_PROXY
my.internal.proxy:80 worked like a charm, except that,
for some reason, fetch refuses to work without
internet DNS resolution.  As with our environment, no
internal hosts have external DNS resolution - how do
you solve that?

Thanks.

Download the files somehow, burn to CD, copy to /usr/ports/distfiles/,
then run 'make install'.

You need to set FTP_PROXY, if you want to fetch ftp via proxy. 
Refer to 'man 3 fetch' for the datails.

Few ISPs will pay their people to support anything but Windows

_However_ ... if you can reasonably cast the problem as

i used to have SBC dsl... it will work with freebsd although its not 
officially supported and none of the yahoo gimicks will work like video 
streaming as they only support windows IE.  (i'm also a mac user so it 
pisses me off on several levels)  If you are ever down, they won't help 
you because you don't run windows.  You could lie to them of course.  :)

It might be good to look for a different isp anyway.  I've had a lot of 
problems with SBC's billing department.

Hello Li,

It does work. It's easy to setup. I've used it for years. After you 
install FreeBSD on your computer (while the install is going on, 
the computer will connect to the Internet with no problems to get 
information) you'll probably find you can't connect to the 
Internet. The first thing you need to check is /etc/resolv.conf. 
It's probably not there. I've always had to put it in. You need the 
ip's of the SBC DNS nameservers put in it.

If you are still using Windows, pullup the command prompt, type 
nslookup. That will give you the main ip address of the DNS server 
you are using.

Don

I have various sites that use SBC dsl just fine. SBC doesn't know 
officially support FreeBSD which is kind of surprising these days as 
various other venders (via google search) have setup info for freebsd 
and their service. At any rate, it will work. Since all new service via 
SBC uses PPPOE, that will need to be configured on your system to use 
dsl via SBC. Have a look at the handbook link below.

In what ways do they say it can't work?  Do you have an internal or 
external DSL router? (I am assuming DSL.)  If you have an external DSL 
router, I don't see any reason why your connection shouldn't work.

A little more information about how you connect would definitely help 
answer your question.

internet access from jail with nat

2004-05-23 Thread Khairil Yusof
My host machine acts as a gateway and has a simple firewall setup with
ipfw and natd. There are no problems with other computers on the local
network or the host machine in accessing the internet with this setup.

However I'm having problems with getting jails on the host pc, to access
the internet. Jails can access the host pc and vice versa, but not
external ip addresses from within a jail.

My host pc has ip 192.168.1.1 and aliased 10.1.1.1 as well as 10.1.1.2
(jail ip).

What am I missing to allow jails to access the internet via ipfw/nat?
Any help would be much apprecieated.

More settings below:

natd flags are: -dynamic yes -s -p -n tun0

my ipfw setup:

#firewall command
fwcmd="/sbin/ipfw"

# Force a flushing of the current rules before we reload.
$fwcmd -f flush

# Divert all packets through the tunnel interface.
$fwcmd add divert natd all from any to any via tun0

# Allow all connections that have dynamic rules built for them,
# but deny established connections that don't have a dynamic rule.
# See ipfw(8) for
details.   
 
$fwcmd add check-state
$fwcmd add deny tcp from any to any established

#Allow all localhost connections
$fwcmd add allow tcp from me to any out via lo0 setup keep-state
$fwcmd add deny  tcp from me to any out via lo0
$fwcmd add allow ip  from me to any out via lo0 keep-state

# Allow all connections from my network card that I initiate

Configuring For Internet Access Using Router

2004-05-13 Thread Gerard Seibert
I tried sending the following message yesterday, but I believe it got
lost somehow. In any event, it never was relayed by freebsd-questions.
So here I go again.

I am having a problem getting my system properly configured. I have three 
computers - 2 are WinXP Pro and one Free BSD. They are connected via a hub 
and then to a Net Gear RT311 Gateway Router. This is then connected to a 
cable modem. If I run my system with it configured as the files listed below 
show, then it seems to works alright. However, that is not the way the router 
manual says to do it.

The manual wants th OS to obtain an IP automatically.
The IP address of the PC is between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.31
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
The default gateway is 192.168.0.1

If I disable the lines in the dhclient.conf file and reboot, my system will no 
longer make an Internet connection. Running nslookup will fail as well.

Neither of my two WinXP boxes exhibits this phenomena. Perhaps someone can 
assist me with this . Also, when I access my router, it does not show a host 
name, although it does for the other two computers, It lists the IP as 
192.168.0.4 as well as it's MAC address.  Why is it not displaying a host 
name? It should, shouldn't it.

Properly Configuring For Internet Access

2004-02-28 Thread Gerard Seibert

I am running FreeBSD 5.2.1

I am forever having problems getting my computer to connect with the
internet and each other correctly.

I have three computers - two running WinXP Pro and one running FreeBSD
5.2.1. They are connected to a Netgear Hub, onto a Netgear Router and then
to my cable modem. The two Win XP machines have no problems networking
with each other or connecting to the internet through this configuration.
It seems that my FreeBSD machine does suffer problems from time to time
however with this setup.

In my resolv.conf file, I have the following:

domain  rcn.com
nameserver  207.172.3.8
nameserver  207.172.3.9

My rc.conf file has the following pertinent entries:

Ifconfig_rl0="DHCP"
rpcbind_enable"YES"

The FreeBSD installation program inserted those entries.

I have the following in my dhclient.conf file:

interface "rl0" {
prepend domain-name-servers 207.172.3.8;
prepend domain-name-servers 207.172.3.9;
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, domain-name-servers;
require subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers;
}

What I am interested in knowing, is if this is the most efficient way of
setting up my connecting to the internet on this machine. Once I get that
cleared up, I will proceed to try to get the other two machines to
recognize this one and vice-versa.

Thanks for any assistance offered.
