[gentoo-user] ping!

2006-03-21 Thread maxim wexler
Hi,

Oops, lost the thread "turning off dhcp" end.

Thanks to Neil. Both boxen can ping each other.

Now to clear up a few loose ends:

Why on the fresh(2.6.15) install does net.eth0 start
automatically and the older(2.6.12) have to be started
manually? Is this a bug or a feature?

I note the abundance of choices in portage/net-ftp.
What do I need? I'll just be moving files back and
forth. I don't think security is an issue. Is ftp all
I need? The 2.6.12(Sempron) will be the "main"
machine, connected to the web via diallup.
The 2.6.15(K6) I plan to use as a platform for micro
develpt.

emerge -pv ftp on the 2.6.12 
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N] net-ftp/ftp-0.17-r3  +ssl 52 kB 

but the 2.6.15 adds the +ipv6 flag. Neither make.conf
mentions it. Does the .15, AMD K6-2, know something I
don't?

-Maxim

Hi,

I had issues on various packages after an emerge update too. I think it
was a baselayout issue. Seems the new baselayout (dunno from what time
on) doesn't handle kernels prior to 2.6.14 correctly. Downgrade your
portage and see when all for kernel 2.6.12 starts working again.

Just a thought

FTP is more than you need. scp will do the job with only SSH running, or
you could export directories over NFS.

If you use KDE, use fish://hostname/path in Konqueror to access remote
directories. All you need is SSH running on the remote box.

Well, I just finished sync'ing portage and immediately
did an emerge -pv ftp and, sure enough, there was the
+ipv6 flag


from ipv6.org:

 IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6". IPv6
is the "next generation" protocol designed by the IETF
to replace the current version Internet Protocol, IP
Version 4 ("IPv4").

I don't see a date on the page. It was at the top of a
google search list.

 "You are using IPv4 from 64.228.98.50" It says, which
is true.

So, is this the bleeding edge? Anyway, I don't think
I'll need ipv4 *or* -6 since this is just for pc-2-pc
use.

But now I'm wondering why the +ipv4 flag wasn't added
to the emerge options for the earlier package...

Re: [gentoo-user] ping!

2006-03-21 Thread Luiz Carlos Guidolin
Hi, ipv6 is a newer protocol that is meant to substitute the actual
ipv4. IPV6 requires a specific hardware to run. Since the actual
protocol is version 4 there is no need to include a specific flag  for
it. And my suggestion is, use "-ipv6" since you probably doesn't have
the hardware for it.

The second point is, will you be using your FTP inside you private
network or will it be available to the rest of the world?? If you
intent to make it available to the rest of the world or just for you
to use via internet, witch means you'll have to leave the FTP port
opened, I really suggest you no to use FTP!! Use SCP (ssh) instead.
Since it requires user authentication via a secure protocol. FTP is
known to be a very big security danger!

ipv6 is just a new protocol just different software the network and
computer hardware dont have to change! althought i can see why you might
say this because some broadband routers dont support ipv6 but this is a
firmware limitation and nothing else.

Thanks, Luiz. Yeah, just noticed when I did an emerge
of iptraf it said it was going for just one package
but then went and got the ipv6 diff file too.

No, the crossover LAN I'm working on will be strictly
private. My only connection to the Web is via dialup.

But can someone actually squeeze down my serial port
and make it over to the NIC somehow and do mischief? I
hadn't thought about it.

Hi Maxim,

as long as you will only be using it internally I think there is no
problem to use the FTP. I think that the probability of someone doing
that is very low. One should be interested in your stuff to spend time
doing that. The fact is, since you will be connected to the Internet
you must set an firewall up. Doing this you will be reducing the
chances of someone even try to access you system. It's much easier to
do that on a unprotected system so why do this in one with a
firewall?!?!

Just be sure your FTP port wont be opened for the outside world!

IPv6 (was: Re: [gentoo-user] ping!)

Blatantly and completely false.  Any hardware that can transport ipv4 
traffic can transport ipv6 traffic [1].  Routing tables may be larger 
(although for the backbone they are supposed to be /smaller/), but they 
will not /require/ additional hardware.  For hardware switching/routing of 
IPv6 packets (so, this is a layer 3 [or above] switch/router?) well, of 
course hardware is required, but that doesn't mean you can't do IPv6 in 
software or firmware.

You can join 6-bone today, as long as you have a public (even dynamic) ipv4 
IP and a relatively recent kernel.

[gentoo-user] ping / connect to another subnet

2010-03-30 Thread Joseph

I'm running Windows XP on VirtualBox, it has a network "NAT" so the IP address 
it gets:
IP: 10.0.2.15
Gateway: 10.0.2.2
DNS: 10.10.0.1  (Linux router)

I've tried to access the Windows IP by creating another subnet:
ifconfig eth0:1 10.0.2.0 up

but it doesn't work, I can not ping the Windows IP:  10.0.2.15
(Windows firewall is OFF)

Any suggestions?

In fact when I first started gentoo (and it was a few years ago now)
there was a gentoo ipv6 howto, which told you how to get connected to
ipv6 via a couple of virtual providers (HeNET?), so I don't think that
even a recent kernel was required. That was in  2.4 days.

You could try using Bridged instead of NAT. Bridged would let you set
up the NIC on the VM to the same IP address range as the host using
the same NIC as the host.

If your host IP is 192.168.1.10 on eth0
You could set Bridged > eth0 on the VM settings panel and then set
your net config inside the VMs OS to 192.168.1.X on eth0

Yes, I'm aware of it. 
I've setup iptables + squid so I can filter here they an connect to.

If I setup as Bridge, Windows gets the IP from the Router (dhcpd) and will 
by-pass my filter :-/
My router does not filter outgoing traffic only incoming.

I setup on VirtualBox one interface as NAT and one as Bridge and Windows 
browser selected the one without filer Bridge, so it is bypassing my filter.

Check the User Manual for Virtual Box:
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.1.6/UserManual.pdf
Take a look at section 6.3:"VirtualBox.
A virtual machine with NAT enabled acts much like a real computer that
connects
to the Internet through a router. The “router”, in this case, is the
VirtualBox network-
ing engine, which maps traffic from and to the virtual machine
transparently. The
disadvantage of NAT mode is that, much like a private network behind a
router, the
virtual machine is invisible and unreachable from the outside internet;
you cannot run
a server this way unless you set up port forwarding (described below)."

I would suggest to manually set up your ip address and (or tune dhcp
server for VirtualHost).

Then should be easy to adjust your settings for iptables+squid.

If i get you right on you hosting OS you have iptables+squid ?!

Then probably you should do the following:

1) Use bridged connection for you VM (WindowsXP).
2) In Windows XP:
2.1 Set up ip address manually at the same network as your host
machine.
2.2 Make settings for your browser to use proxy server (ip and port of
your linuxbox(hosting machine) with squid).
2.3 If you have forwarding and dns you can also set them at the network
setting window.
3) In your LinuxBox (host machine):
2.1. Use iptables to allow traffic between squid and you winXP.
2.2. Setup squid to allow access from winXP.

In most cases it should be easy.

Good suggestion, thank.

I think in my case it will be
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" 
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/Protocol" UDP
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" 
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/GuestPort" 445
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" 
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/HostPort" 445

since I want to mount samba cifs windows share.
I think CIFS on windows is using port 445 but I'm not sure on samba on Linux, 
will it be 139 or 445?
or I just specify port number when mounting it: 
mount -t cifs -o username=xx,password= //10.0.2.15:455/data

[gentoo-user] Ping ElseCZ (re: Nvidia WAIT; (also KVM GPM passthrough ))

2010-02-23 Thread 7v5w7go9ub0o
I tried to respond to your NVidia forums post; but couldn't join the 
forum (apparently they didn't like my gmail address).

- FWIW I get that wait (WAIT (E, 0, 0x0887d, 0) ) when I activate the 
following kernel options:

#  set "Bus options (PCI etc.)" -> "Support for DMA Remapping Devices" 
to "*"
# set "Bus options (PCI etc.)" -> "Enable DMA Remapping Devices" to "*"
# set "Bus options (PCI etc.)" -> "PCI Stub driver" to "*"

Activating these options is prescribed by the KVM folks to allow VM 
access of the GPM; < 
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/How_to_assign_devices_with_VT-d_in_KVM>

- When I deactivate those options, the NV driver works fine. kernel: 
linux-2.6.32-gentoo-r6 (and r3)

- Perhaps you could post these comments in the NV form. Perhaps you 
could also advise them that they might get more participation if they 
were a little more accessible.
