To be more exactly:
There is a "Easy Setup" and a "advanced setup". The easy setup is very very
easy. it's a wizard and you just have to tell the wizard if you're using
DHCP, PPPoE or static IP and you're done.
The advanced setup allows you to define ipfilter rules, NAT, syslog  and
so on.

David,
I now have a user id on Savana. Do you think this is a good place to create 
a mirror of our site? If so, I will apply for a LEAF project there.

Actually, I'm pretty certain that it is impossible. The problem is that
ip masquerading will only masquerade one interface. I think you need
multiple routers unless you keep distinct non-NAT'd IP spaces and use a
routing daemon.

I got started by installing Slackware 2.1 on a *tiny* 386 with a 160MB

partition sizes on such a small hard drive, and startx took about ten

I have almost totally moved the Shorewall project off of Sourceforge. Besides 
the issues raised in the above article, I worry about the long-term survival 
of VA Linux (VA Software or whatever they call themselves this week). I see 
them taking the steps described in the article as a rather desperate attempt

I've never tried to do this but I do believe I've a pretty pretty

More on this later...

Only  partially...

Let read this log...

 > Packet log: input REJECT eth1 PROTO=17 192.168.1.138:1705
 > 192.168.2.2:161 L=68 S=0x00 I=44714 F=0x T=128 (#3)
 > With 192.168.1.138 being my server and 192.168.2.2 being my printer

On the INPUT chain, for interface eth1, in UDP (PROTO=17), your server
using port 1705 (dynamically assigned) tried to communicate with your
printer on it's port 161 (a service port provided by the printer,
that's interesting...) and all of this was denied by rule #3...

I tried to lookup rule #3 to have a better idea of what was the rule
denying the traffic but unfortunatly (actually fortunatly for me (-; )
I've the FIREWALL ruleset and not the ROUTER one...

Ok, let turn off my ADSL modem and change that ruleset...

Done...

Now let reload it... (svi network ipfilter reload)

O.k., what does the rule #3 looks like now...

  0 0 REJECT udp  l- 0xFF 0x00  * 
  0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 * -> 161:162

That's VERY interesting, there's a rule in there specifically for that
kind of traffic...

O.k., what are those ports... Let's go to the IANA for their 
assignments... ( http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers )

Port 1782 is HP specific...

hp-hcip 1782/tcphp-hcip
hp-hcip 1782/udphp-hcip

while 161 and 162 are:

snmp161/tcpSNMP
snmp161/udpSNMP
snmptrap162/tcpSNMPTRAP
snmptrap162/udpSNMPTRAP

SNMP!!!

O.k., let's look at /etc/ipfilter.conf...

The relevant part is:

<<
# A function to control SNMP access on a network
snmpBlock () {
 local LIST=$1
 local DEST_IP=$2
 local SNMP_IP
 shift 2

 if [ "$SNMP_BLOCK" != "YES" -a "$SNMP_BLOCK" != "Yes" \
 -a "$SNMP_BLOCK" != "yes" ] ; then
 return 0
 fi

 for SNMP_IP in $SNMP_MANAGER_IPS; do
 $IPCH -A $LIST -j ACCEPT -p udp -s $SNMP_IP -d
$DEST_IP 161:162 $*
 done; unset SNMP_IP
 $IPCH -A $LIST -j REJECT -p udp -s 0/0 -d $DEST_IP 161:162 -l
$*
}

 >>

O.k. let's see... If SNMP_BLOCK is not YES (ie if SNMP_BLOCK=NO or
probably just about anything but YES or Yes or yes, I'm sure there's
no other validation of content anywhere else...), the rules won't be
added... So setting SNMP_BLOCK=NO (it's just after
IPFILTER_SWITCH=ROUTER (or FIREWALL or NONE) would work..

OTOH, if you wan't to keep that protection active, you could uncomment
SNMP_MANAGER_IPS in network.conf and put the IP addresses of the pc(s)
you wish to be able to contact your printer using SNMP (I could be
mistaken but it does seem to work that way... BTW, that list is space
separated...) and that should work...

This is the revelvant part of /etc/network.conf:

<<

###
# IP Filter setup - can pull in settings from above
###

# Set up the basic type of filtering. Can be one of
(none|router|firewall)
# You must load the ip_masq_* modules to enable full IP masquerading,

IPFILTER_SWITCH=ROUTER

# This set of variables is used with both sets of filters

The additionnal parameters (ie the SNMP-related ones) "appear" to
originally come from Materhorn/Eiger scripts (from which Eigerstein &
Dachstein are "derivatives").

 > Does anyone have any thoughts on what I might have configured wrong?

Can't say it was actually configured wrong per se but more that some 
additionnal config was required...

BTW, I might not have exactly the same scripts as you (but according 
to the changelog it seems they should be very close) since my firewall
is Dachstein CD 1.0.1-bas

[Leaf-user] winscp plug

2002-01-13 Thread Paul Rimmer

I'd just like to put in a plug for a really nice piece of freeware, winscp2.
It is an scp(2) client that acts like an ftp client for moving files between
your PC and LRP box but with SSH security.  Also works great to move stuff
securely from work to my Unix box behind the firewall.   It is up there with
Putty for quality (it even uses some Putty functionality).  A couple of
gotchas are:

1) You must disable the auto-lrcfg menu at login (comment out last line in
/root/.profile).
2) Disable "lookup user groups" setting on the shell tab or you will get an
error message at login (with my DCD box at least).

For more info you can take a look at:
http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/

Paul

That's too bad.  It works out of the box with Eigerstein and Dachstein with
the mods I mentioned.  Bash isn't necessary with those.

[Leaf-user] Diald problems on Dachstein

2002-01-13 Thread Mark Lubratt

Hello!

I'm trying to get diald to run on my Dachstein router.  All the scripts have
been set up and I try to test the dialup link.  I get the following error
messages in the /var/log/messages file:

connect: Protocol started
diald[926]: Connected to site 127.0.0.3
diald[926]: Running pppd (pid = 967).
diald[926]: start sl0: RTNETLINK answers: File exists
diald[926]: start sl0: RTNETLINK answers: File exists
diald[926]: Delaying 10 seconds before clear to dial

The diald scripts I'm using are the same ones I've had on a RedHat system
working as a similar demand dial-up/router.

One other thing.  When diald is killed, sl0 remains an active network link.
I try to remove it by 'ip link set sl0 down', but that doesn't work.  Is it
possible that diald doesn't like the new kernel and ip tools (I'm running
2.2.19)?

Thanks!
Mark

[Leaf-user] Cable Setup Help

2002-01-13 Thread jp

I am attempting to install Dachstein (floppy-based install) on a P166 w/ 64mb Ram.  

I am using two AOpen AON-325  NIC's.

I have eth0 connected to my cable modem (ISP is cableone.net)

I have eth1 connected to my hub

Also connected to the hub is a XP box (I will be adding a RH 7.1 box soon, in case it 
matters).

I have gotten the floppy setup, installed the appropriate module for my NIC's 
(rtl8139.o), and 
have had limited success.

Dachstein appears to be setting up my clients correctly via DHCP, as they are assigned 
the 
correct IP, Gateway, etc.

>From the client (XP) I can ping the LRP box.  From the LRP box, I cannot ping the XP 
>box 
(192.168.1.1), it just doesn't return any results.  I also cannot ping out.  
Attempting to ping out 
results in a error that says "not allowed".  

Needless to say, I cannot connect to the internet via the client box.

I am also a little curious, as the eth0 IP is set at 10 , where as my dhcp 
assigned IP from 
the ISP is normally a 24.116.36.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Being that I am using a local ISP, I have not 
been able 
to find much in the way of others experiences using LRP w/ this ISP.  The ISP says 
that I 
should just be able to connect a router and share the service.  

Thanks

[Leaf-user] Firewall Setup

2002-01-13 Thread jp

While sifting through docs I found this error which I have been receiving, while 
trying to 
ping any internet IP from the LRP box:
sendto(): operation not permitted
It says that this is the result of incorrect setup of the Firewall rules.  Where can I 
find some 
documentation on setting up a set of Firewall rules that will give me at least minimal 
access 
to the net (www & email for now).  At least if I can get that working I can slowly 
work 
through the rest.  

My main problem is right now, to test out the router I have to switch my cable modem 
to it.  
Once that is done, it makes it difficult (currently impossible) to do any research on 
problems as they come up.

Again, your help is greatly appreciated.

I am running DCD, dhclient, dnscache and tinydns-private on my local
firewall.  When the system boots -- as I just did 2 minutes ago --
resolv.conf shows this:

search  private.network

Sometime in the last several hours, something changed this to:

search  attbi.com

This has happened several times in the last couple weeks; but, not so
frequently that I've got all of the evidence inline.  Obviously, scripts
that refer to hosts by short name (cat /etc/hostname) no longer resolve
like this ;<

The only thing I can figure -- since I didn't change resolv.conf -- is
that the lease expired and during re-negotiation, dhclient rewrote the
search line ?!?!

What do you think?

Do you have the "private.network" domain and the 192.168.1.254 for your
DNS servers on the client boxes?

Have you set the GATEWAY=111.222.333.444 variable in network.conf set
to your ISP's gateway? I have found that to be necessary in my local
area (or atleast a valid ip in the same subnet as my gateway... the 
111.222.333.444 doesn't work)? You might also try releasing the lease
for your ISP's dhcp server on your other computer your using for
internet while DCD is not working _before_ trying to connect with DCD 
again.

If this doesn't work, post the results to "ip addr show", "ip route 
show",
and "netstat -i"

It is supposed to so your box can resolve ip host names. This
information is sync'ed for use with dnscache.

I think your correct and it stays that way until dnscache and/or
tiny-dns update themselves for the new lease. This isn't your ISP 
hacking your box if that is what your asking, this is normal operation.
I go ahead and put my isp's domain name in the dns portion of 
network..conf, but you may have a conflict with this from what I 
am gathering from your post.  You might make your problem/question
a little more clear if this doesn't help you.

Re: [Leaf-user] Firewall Setup

2002-01-13 Thread dgilleece

A couple of things are happening.  First, it seems that your Dach box is not 
obtaining a proper address from your ISP.  If your address used to be 
24.116.x.x, you should be seeing something similar now.  Since it is getting 
assigned a 10.x.x.x address, the ipfilter code is generating the "operation not 
permitted" message --- as Dachstein disallows RFC 1918 addresses (of which the 
10.x.x.x is).  Since these are reserved for the "private" side of networks, the 
external interface will reject everything if an "illegal" address is configured 
on that interface.

The thing to track down is why the external interface is not obtaining the 
proper IP from your ISP.  That is outside of my experience, since I have always 
used static IPs.  I'd recommend you walk very carefully thru the network.conf, 
paying close attention to the sections involving dynamic external IPs.  A good 
step-by-step procedure for setting it up can be found at:  
http://www.pigtail.net/LRP/ --- about half way down the page is where the fun 
begins...

Also note, some ISPs restrict your connection to a specific MAC address.  If 
your ISP does that, it may be rejecting your attempt to obtain a DHCP lease.  
If that is the case, you will have to notify your ISP to give the MAC of your 
intended external NIC.  I recall somewhere that some systems have "trick" for 
spoofing the MAC address, so you don't have to involve the ISP.  Unfortunately, 
I haven't seen that approach in action, and I don't know if or how it would 
work. 

Good luck,

Dan

No, it is *not* supposed to do that!  Why should it?

The system administrator ought to be in charge of the system, which
includes /etc/resolv.conf.  If some automated process is diddling with
system configuration files, there had better be a good, _documented_
reason ;>

Adding to the `search' directive is one thing -- replacing it is quite
another ;<

Since I am running tinydns-private, *replacing* the search statement
breaks my dns!

And, *why* would I want to seach the domain attbi.com?  They will not
delegate any attbi.com subdomain to me -- so, what purpose could it
serve?

I believe that I am quite clear on what I'm asking.  Unfortunately, I
think that you missed my point entirely . . .

Where is it documented that dhclient will re-write resolv.conf?

Thank-you for being direct. After a 30 second Google search on
resolv.conf, I found the information below. Sorry I did not take the 
30 seconds before posting originally. 


/etc/dhclient.conf

Here it is, with some thing changed to protect the innocent.  Note the 
extra space within the quotes at the end of the domain-name line.  Note 
that although I mention the supersede command in resolv.conf is being 
modified, and not by me, it is not included below.  I have no idea why 
that is.   But I know the below worked for me. timeout 60;
retry 60;
reboot 10;
select-timeout 5;
initial-interval 2;
script "/etc/dhclient-script";

prepend domain-name "mydomain.com ";
prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;

interface "eth0" {
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, 
domain-name-servers,
domain-name, host-name;
require domain-name-servers;
media "link2";
}


This was copied from:
http://www.freebsddiary.org/resolv.php
It seems to be a somewhat documented problem with dhclient that affects
all systems running it. I'll go through the dhclient package if you 
want.
Hope this helps.

[Leaf-user] Message log Overflow crashes EigerStein

2002-01-13 Thread Greg Orne

I am a novice with  linux and the EigerStein router has run flawlessly for
many months on my old 486.

The last week My router crashes every 1-2 days and I have to restart it.

The message log seems to overflow with  the following:  and 10.38.64.1 is
not an IP address assigned by either me or my provider.

Any ideas on how to make the EigerStein handle this better?

I tried the suggestion on Domain Spaming by Victor form 6/9/2001 (dns floods
port 53) but is seems to have no effect.
I have tried changing the port in his solution to both 67 and 68 still no
effect!

Any help would be appreciated.  I do not want to have to run out and buy a
router. but don't know what to do.

Perhaps, `supersede domain-name "private.network"' will work for me --
we'll see.  The downer is, that with several DCD's to maintain,
/etc/dhclient.conf must be hard-coded to accommodate this change ;<

The real puzzler is that, after reboot, the system is *correct* -- only
sometime later, something changes and the system is no longer correct!

In fact, since the transition from @home to attbi.com, I had *no*
problems until this last week.  I am not yet sure that this is the
cause, that only at lease expiry and re-negotiation does dhclient
overwrite /etc/resolv.conf -- who knew?

Thank you, for these pointers!  Even though this overwriting doesn't
make any sense to me, that it is known to others and a workaround is
available is encouraging . . .

Have you tried uncommenting "pci-scan" and "tulip" in /etc/modules?  .im
not sure if this is the proper module for your LinkSys cards but its worth a

[Leaf-user] Telstra ADSL PPPoE guide needed!

2002-01-13 Thread Stewart Adey

Hi, I'm running Telstra ADSL and i want to route my internet to 30-40 computers. Does anyone have an image already customized for this kind of setup?  Thank you very much in Advance, Stewart Adey.  By the way, Telstra uses their own customized program as a user name/password login system.  (http://bpalogin.sourceforge.net)(www.2dex.com/lrp/bpalogin.lrp)

On another board to which I subscribe, they are tossing around this link 
http://www.synapticserver.com/bpalogin_2howto.html

Supposedly, it has the low-down on your system.  It is not specific to LEAF, 
but should at least tell you how Linux in general needs to talk to that ISP's 
system.

Good luck,

Hi Stewart,

First, html email leaves a bad taste in most people's mouths.  Please
try to not use html email, especially in unix-based mailing lists.

Second, Tel$tra's dodgey authentication system is only needed for their
Bigpong Broadbland users- not their ADSL users.  Just remember when you
set up the PPPoE client in LEAF that your username needs to be
@tel$tra.com, not just .

HiltonT

***NOTE***  QUICK FIX @BOTTOM OF PAGE

Other hits on the Google search:


If you are running a recent version of the DHCP client, you should be
able to disable writing the resolv.conf file by defining a function in
/etc/dhclient-enter-hooks called make_resolv_conf, that does nothing.
This will replace the standard make_resolv_conf function, which
overwrites your /etc/resolv.conf.   This is all documented in the
dhclient-script man page - if you don't see it there, you need to
upgrade.

 from: 
 http://www.isc.org/ml-archives/dhcp-server/1999/06/msg00181.html

I haven't tried that, you can if you want. A patch to the
/etc/dhclient-enter-hooks file that defined the make_resolv_conf
function might work, I don't have the source the package was compiled
with right now. Otherwise I did find the offending section in
/etc/dhclient-script (lines 214-217) that overwrite resolv.conf.
I don't know where the variable goes when CONFIG_DNS=NO,
but if I do I'll submit a patch using something like:


# $STATIC_RESOLV is called from wherever CONFIG_DNS=NO is run ##

 if [ "$STATIC_RESOLV" = "1" ]; then
echo
 else
   echo search $new_domain_name >/etc/resolv.con
   for nameserver in $name_domain_name_servers; do
echo nameserver $nameserver >>/etc/resolv.conf
   done
 fi

END OF PATCH#

Quick fix for you is to comment out lines 214-217 in
/etc/dhclient-script.

Hope this helps,

Re: [Leaf-user] DCD, dhclient & /etc/resolv.conf ???

2002-01-13 Thread guitarlynn

Never mind the patch, I'm way over thinking this..sorry!

The simplest route will be to edit your 'network.conf' file as 
suggested by Charles. 

Note this:

# CONFIG_DNS=(YES/NO)   Default: NO
# Create /etc/resolv.conf file using DOMAINS and DNSx entries.
# Any current resolv.conf file will be **OVERWRITTEN**

Scroll down (most of the file) to the DNS config, change to "YES" and
simply enter your desired information. It will NOT be changed with
this option. Charles has already accounted for this bug, sorry I 
went braindead. It seems to be my weekend.

Please, pay careful attention to my posts.  Notice, that this problem
does *not* occur at bootup; rather, it occurs later on ;>

Yes, I have *always* used CONFIG_DNS=YES, which is why this problem is
so surprising!

[Leaf-user] no ppp support in kernel (DCD 1.0.2)?

2002-01-13 Thread Jim Van Eeckhoutte

I get this error when enabling ppp and pppd with ppp0 in network.conf:

pppd: This system lacks kernel support for PPP.  This could be because
the PPP kernel module could not be loaded, or because PPP was not
included in the kernel configuration.  If PPP was included as a
module

Is this right?
