Hi Mike,

Considering the political reasons for the mass exodus from LRP to LEAF,
I'm glad to see these figures.

[Leaf-devel] Groovy Router Idea?

2001-09-06 Thread Hilton Travis
aling with Telstra.

There is an easy way around this issue - build a Linux/BSD-based router, and use it to firewall. NAT and port-forward all that is needed.  Cheaper than a Nabisco router too!  The 4-port card would be configured as Port-1 for the encoder, Port-2 for a local LAN, Port-3 for an "Internet Cafe", and Port-4 for conection to another LAN/ADSL router/whatever (if the Internet connection is not an OnRamp ISDN connection).  This will make it possible to allocate set bandwidth to the encoder, and have the rest available for the rest of the LAN segments - the encoder is the highest priority device.

Now, if anyone here has had experience with the DFE-570TX, or ISDN cards in a LEAF box, could you please let me know your experiences.  I have ready access to everything I need for this, except an ISDN connection (however, I'm sure I can locate one when I need to test the ISDN configuration).  If anyone has any configuration hints for me, they'd be appreciated.

I'll probably base this on ES2B (or the latest version still in the pipeline), however if Oxygen would be a better base for this sort of functionality, I'd be willing to look at that.  (I am currently running a couple of ES2B-based LEAF boxes in different places, and am more confortable with ES than O2.)

RE: [Leaf-devel] New User Interface Tool: Breakthrough!

2001-07-18 Thread Hilton Travis

Hi,

I purchased a Dick Smith "System 80" quite a few years ago - it was an
Australian TRS-80 Model III clone.  This box was awesome - with 48KB RAM
and an inbuilt tape drive.  It absolutely screamed along.  I even got a
small B&W TV with the deal (second hand PC and TV) to use as a monitor.
:-)

After a while I thought I'd get a bit more adventurous - I purchased a
TRS-80 Model III with Level I and II ROMs (selectable via a toggle
switch), but it had only 16KB RAM.  I purchased a number of 4116 RAM Ics
and increased the RAM in this unit to 48KB - now I had two awesomely
powerful machines at my disposal.

I then decided that tapes were a bit slow for my liking, and started
looking at hard drives.  For AU$1000 I could purchase an expansion unit
and a 10MB hard drive - bargain.  However, as I could not possibly see
me using that humungous amount of storage, I decided against purchasing
this.

O! the joys of the early home computer days - we'll never get those back
again.

Hilton Travis

RE: [Leaf-devel] Tel$tra Bigpuddle is imposing a 3GB TOTAL traffic limit

2001-06-24 Thread Hilton Travis

Hi All,

Does anyone have any input on my ideas below?  I'd really like my LEAF
box to be able to supply logs/statistics so I can measure throughput per
IP address.  I understand that I can run MRTG on a Windows or Linux box,
but am unsure if it will display stats based on IPs so I can check
traffic quantities per IP on my LAN.  I still need a way for the logs on
the LEAF box to be archived and exported daily so there's a more
permanent record of this traffic.

[Leaf-devel] Tel$tra Bigpuddle is imposing a 3GB TOTAL traffic limit

2001-06-21 Thread Hilton Travis

Hi All,

I am in the unfortunate position of being a Telstra customer.  I
stupidly thought that due to the immense profits that Telstra continues
to make, they would have had the initiative to put some of this money
back into building their infrastructure.  I was sadly mistaken.

It appears that Telstra has decided that users of their Cable and ADSL
Freedom (sic) Plan service will now be subjected to a limit of 3GB
traffic per month.  This is a total of 3GB inbound and outbound.  For a
broadband service that was advertized as having "unlimited" monthly
traffic, this is a kick in the guts.  The average unlimited modem
connection costs about AU$20 (US$10.50) per month, has unlimited monthly
traffic, and I can pull around 0.5GB/day over a modem, approx
15GB/month.  Now, the Cable Freedom (sic) Plan costs AU$71.55 (US$35)
per month, allows about 100MB/day (3GB/month), and is limited in every
way you look at it.

Telstra's Freedom (sic) Plan has the following terms of use:
1. You cannot run an Internet Server on this connection (web, ftp,
filesharing, mail, etc)
2. You cannot connect a LAN to this service (including hardware
firewalls, by definition)
3. You cannot have more than 3GB of total traffic per month (inbound and
outbound)
4. You have a maximum inbound/outbound speed of 512kbps/128kbps

If anyone can see where the term "freedom" applies under these
conditions, please enlighten me.

With the unfortunate situation where Telstra refuses to invest in their
own network infrastructure, this means that they will cram as many
people onto their seriously underperforming Broadband network as they
can, and limit their customer's use of this network to FAR BELOW what
they could achieve with a normal dialup account and a 56kbps modem.

My recommendations to all Internet users in Australia who are
considering connecting to the Telstra Broadband network - look at Optus,
they have a *much* better plan, conditions and business outlook for
their clients.

Now, getting off my soapbox, I have modified Charles' Es2B images for
both Optus@Home and Telstra Broadband Cable users in Australia.  These
are available at http://users.bigpond.net.au/htravis for download by
anoyone who so chooses.

What I want to do is this:
1. Change from the older ES2B to the newer images that have been created
2. Remove *all* reference to www.linuxrouter.org for obvious reasons
3. Have the ability to archive the logs daily and mail them out of the
system
4. Have the ability to graph the traffic through the router per internal
IP address, either on the router directly, or most probably by using the
mailed logs on another machine (with a hard drive that can store the
data for longer).
5. Make this image available for all users who need/want it

Due to the immense amount of work I have on at the moment, and my
limited Linux experience, I am unable to get this all sorted out for a
few weeks.  I would *really* appreciate those with the necessary
knowledge/experience to make suggestions about my goals, and the
likelihood that they can be achieved.  Or, of course, improvements upon
my ideas!

Any and all input in this area, I'm sure, will help other users of LEAF
and help the project in general.

Sounds fine to me.  I may or may not personally agree with Capital
Punishment (or terrorism), but I sure as hell don't think that my views
belong in such an obvious place on such an unrelated home page as that

that Dave used it for his political views.

I will sign the text that is decided upon by all LEAFers.

I think I may unsubscribe from the LRP mailing lists if there are others

Hi Kenneth,

Sorry to say, but I agree with you Kenneth and all others expressing the
same opinion.  DC seems to be a horribly mislead and lost person
regarding this issue.

Hero - my a$$.

I think after this seriously misdirected "memorial", that
linuxrouter.org should be removed from the links page on all current and
new LRP images.  Political statements, as has been said, are not
appropriate for non-political websites, especially when the statement
goes against rationalism and sensibility.

2001-04-20 Thread Hilton Travis

Hi George,

Cool - I will start playing with this as soon as I get some spare time.
:-)

As for ipchains and ipfwadm - bugger it.  If we are going to make the
leap to a 2.4.x kernel, then I say we should also make the leap to a
true iptables stateful firewall configuration too.

I'm definitely interested in the updating work currently being done to
the Eigerstein 2 Beta image, and would be more than happy to contribute
where and when I can.  Unfortunately, I am a bit tied down at the moment
so am finding it difficult to find the time to apply to lrp.  I'm
looking at rearranging my time so I sleep less and play more, but I may
take some convincing on that.

Hi George,

I downloaded your 2.4.1 1.68MB image and stuck it on a disk.  I just
un-commented the following modules (and added the 3c509.0 module from
your kernel tarball to the disk):

iptable_natip_nat_ftp
ip_conntrack   ip_conntrack_ftp
ipt_LOGipt_mac
ipt_state  (all exist in the original downloaded image)

and am receiving the following errors upon boot:

ip_conntrack_ftp - ip_nat_ftp - /lib/modules/ip_nat_ftp.o:
 unresolved symbol ip_nat_expect_register

/lib/modules/ip_nat_ftp.o: unresolved symbol

I assume there is some issue with the kernel compile itself - looks like
something (1) was left out that should have been left in.  Maybe.

I really want to have a play with the new kernel and iptables to see
what I can come up with, but unfortunately do not have another working
Linux box here at present on which I can try a kernel compile myself.

Anyway, when you get your 2.4.2 kernel and associated files uploaded
I'll be downloading and trying these out.  All the best.

Hilton

(1) Buggers me what tho
