RE: [Leaf-user] Now here's an interesting auction
Morning all, I think some of you missed my point. I am not really interested in using freesco, more to the point: 1. It was interesting to see someone trying to make a go of selling computers with a floppy based firewall. 2. Since they claim it runs in 6 MB, I would be interested in seeing how they have the web-based setup routine work in the limited space. 3. I wonder if the web based setup would be something that could be adapted to LRP without alot of overhead (mainly space requirements). I am glad to see some have used it before. My question to you all is, what is the setup routine like? Was it comprehensive? Was it web-based or text-based? I have only tried Oxygen's setup a couple of times, and it is effective, but unless you know the layout of the system and where you should edit for your situation, it can be a little difficult to configure. Now, in all honesty, I have not RTFM's, I have perused them and thought I could figure it out as I went. I was only half effective in that approach. The weird thought I had was what if, like in Oxygen, you had a basic boot disk, then you loaded whatever data disk you wanted, followed only on the initial boot, a setup diskette. The setup diskette would do the grunt work of setting up the basic system (web-based with brief explanations on the various screens of what needed to go where). Then you could use the package system to setup the individual packages as needed. I hope all that made some sense, and more importantly, I hope I have my facts straight on Oxygen since I have only used it twice like I said. It took me about a week the first time I tried LRP to figure out that when I rebooted, the settings weren't being saved (ramdisk...D'OH!). If I am wrong, or misguided, I apologize and would appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Thanks, Tony P.S. The DNS scans have faded out for the most part, but it seems to be tied to that damn X-10 advertisement. Whenever I have one pop up, I get scanned. I can go for a week or two, nothing, then boom, scan-o-rama. I implemented the filter pointing to an external file with the IP's listed and that has taken care of it. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of kp vander kleut Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2001 06:38 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: David Zilm Subject: Re: [Leaf-user] Now here's an interesting auction Hi, last I checked (some months ago) Freesco did only Modem (PPP)lines, no dsl or cable or ethernet, running on a 2.0.36 kernel. their webconfig is a nice setup though slightly confusing at times.

Re: [Leaf-user] VPN / IPSEC Problem
Phil: Heya. Have a look here: http://lrp1.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/2.2.16-1-VPNMasq/ Download one of those kernels, have it be the linux file on your floppy. In the ./modules directory there, get the modules for your NIC in the NET subdirectory, and then get everything in the IPV4 subdirectory. Install them into /lib/modules, then update the /etc/modules file (via lrcfg: Package Settings, Modules, Modules). That'll do. :) -Scott Which ipmasq modules need to be loaded? Also, importantly, ipfwd just gets the packets from the *outside in*. To get them from the inside out, it requires that ipmasquerade'ing be VPN-aware. Specifically, this means having a kernel compiled for VPN support, and having the associated ipmasq modules loaded. Skipping this step will cause the VPN connection to fail silently. ___ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user

Re: [Leaf-user] Now here's an interesting auction
About 8 months ago, when I was trying to get LRP up and running, I was getting very frustrated. Freesco was configured in running in 15 minutes and worked great. The documentation and setup by script was easy. I wanted the flexibility of LRP, though, but I couldn't get anything to load properly given the images that I had. I had even tried a couple different custom-image configuration sites on the net with no luck... Then I found EigerStein. thanks, Charles. mike.
