[Leaf-user] Re: MAC address Spoofing to ISP- ATT/RoadRunner

2002-02-16 Thread Ivory Williams

Brian: This may help: My cable is ATT which was
MediaOne/RoadRunner. (Note: Before trying this method,
RESET the cable modem, not just turn it off and try
your current setup again). 

That said, ATT (LA/S Calif) allows you to have 3ea
MAC addresses on file. After trying to solve the
spoofing problem, I just registered the LRP address
(eth0) with my ISP. (this also allows a quick return
to your orginal setup) eth1 now goes to the Win98 box.
If your ISP doesn't allow several MAC's on file, you
could still just register the LRP NIC in place of the
Win98.

 Subject: [Leaf-user] DHCP Connectivity problem
 continued
 
 Hello again-
 I am still having a problem connecting to, road
 runner,  my isp's dhcp
 server.
 Any more advice would be appreciated.
 
 I will explain what I have done so far.
 I am using the Dachstein floppy on a Pentium one.
 
 I verified the mac address with my isp, so it should
 be correct.
 
 The ethernet works because I am currently using the
 cabe for a win98 router
 ( using sygate ).
 when i use that as my router this is what my isp
 releases.
 DHCP Server ip: 24.31.3.23
 default gateway: 66.41.136.1
 subnet mask: 255.255.248.0
 Ip it assigned my windows router: 66.41.137.97
 
 When i test my Linux router I first release the ip
 from the win98 machine.
 Then i move the ethernet
 cable from the win98 box to the Linux router box. I
 power down the cable
 modem and the linux router box.
 I wait for a minute and start them both up again.
 
 Things i have tried
 ---
 I tried to spoof the mac address to the same number
 as on the win98 box but
 i am not sure if i did it correctly.
 here is what i did to the /etc/dhclient.conf 
 
 send dhcp-client-identifier 00:40:54:31:7c:7c;  #I
 am not sure if this is
 correct or not.
 
 
 i tried setting the default gateway
 eth0_DEFAULT_GW=66.41.136.1

Since I see you are using MTD, would you be able to make your image

put it.

For some reason it seems like I'm pushing the envelope of Leaf by wanting

 Hi guys,
 
 I have been able to bring the Jacques Nilo's Bering

 based system.  I am using the Beta 2 since there
 seems to be problems with modify the Beta 3 floppy
 image.  Following is the summary of changes to make 
 it happens.
 
 (1) The DOC2000 has one partition.  It is used as
 an ext3 filesystem.  The content of the floppy image 
 is put on the DOC's partition.
 
 (2) Grub.
 
 I am using grub to boot up from DOC.  Following is
 the /boot/grub/menu.lst file.

 pppoe,log,libz,sshd,sshkey,ssh,sftp
 initrd (dc0,0)/initrd.lrp
 
 Notes:  
 - The kernel command is all on one line.
 - There is no PKGPATH.  That will hang the DOC2000.
 Mtd devices can't be mounted at multiple points at the
 same time.
 
 (3) Loading required modules at boot time.
 
 The /boot/etc/modules is changed to load the following
 modules: (the order is very important to detect nftl on
 DOC2000)
 
 mtdcore
 docecc
 doc2000
 docprobe
 nftl
 mtdchar
 mtdblock
 jbd
 ext3
 
 There is probably no need to load mtdchar and mtdblock.
 Both the jbd and ext3 modules can be replaced by another
 fs module, like ext2, if ext2 file system is to be used
 for the DOC2000.
 
 These modules are also downloaded into the 
 /boot/lib/modules directory
 
 (4) Add the following to the
 /var/lib/lrpkg/root.dev.mk file to create the /dev/nftla
 devices.
 
 #DOC  nftl

 makedevs nftlb b 93 16 0 8 s null 21

[Leaf-user] problems with IPIP protocol (94) and SecuRemote

2002-02-16 Thread Marcin

Hi,

I'm trying to use CheckPoint SecuRemote from Windows box through LRP box.
I'm using NAT at LRP host. Authorisation (which uses UDP) are working well,
but after that IP packets (with protocol field set to 94) are being silently
dropped at LRP box. Digging through mail archives I've found only two
suggestions: first one, that watch out IPIP, not all firewalls like that,
and another one which suggest a problem with CheckPoint FW-1 protocol. I've
added ipip.o to the LRP box, but it doesnt resolve the problem. I've also
added straight rules which allowing ip proto=94 to pass/forward through
LRP - unfortunatelly with the same result.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Marcin

I don't have a floppy image.  I took the Bering beta 2 image
and dump everything on it to my DOC2000.  All of the kernel
stuff is actually in Jacques's web space,
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/latest/.

But, you can just build your own kernel and use it instead.
Jacques has a kernel config file that can be used as a
template.  I have to build my own, since I could not get
the IDE driver to work properly.  Plus, Jacques' kernel
has not been patched to work with Freeswan.

The only tricky part is to rebuild the initrd image: initrd.lrp,
to include the mtd device drivers.  Let me know and I will
send mine.

Thanks.

Since we don't use modprobe, the ide modules: ide-mod.o
ide-mod-probe.o, ide-disk.o, ... have to be loaded at the

kernel, but not Jacques' one.  I did not pursue any
further once I got it to work.

There is no mtd.o, but a collection of mtd drivers: mtd-core.o,
docecc.o, doc2000.o, docprobe.o, and nftl.o, to support DOC2000.

 Is that the only .o module that needs to be loaded specially for 
 the DOC, assuming the ide support is compiled into the kernel?

You don't need ide support to be built-in into the kernel.  I 
have been playing with two systems: one with DOC2000 and one 
with a small IDE disk.  On the DOC2000 system, I don't need 
ide at all.

Again, the problem is that we don't use modprobe.  The mtd or
ide drivers have to be loaded in the right sequence for them
to detect the hardware and work properly.  Since they are
required during bootup, they have to be loaded from the
initrd image.

Re: [Leaf-user] Re: LEAF 2.4.14 / Shorewall 1.1.18 based distro (alpha version)

2002-02-16 Thread HENRY PSENICKA

Hi Jacques.

I appreciate your ongoing efforts to move LEAF to 2.4.x kernel!

I have begun to experiment with Bering (b3) to attempt to build a router
that can support a wireless pcmcia interface using the orinoco_cs driver.
The end product should be strictly routing with firewall ( no NAT), and an
IPSEC tunnel securing the wireless interfaces between 2 gateways.

I think I am making some progress (slowly!)... here are some of my
observations to date:

1.  It looks like you may have a bug in the PCMCIA package or in your menu
scripts  the LRCFG menu provides an option to update wireless settings,
but this opens scsi.opts instead of wireless.opts.  Since I didn't need
a SCSI/PCMCIA interface i tried working around it by replacing scsi.opts
with a copy of wireless.opts.

2.  I assume that I must manually install hermes.o, orinoco.o and
orinoco_cs.o, but it is not clear what location they should be installed in.
Please advise?

3. It seems there may be a possible discrepancy in the PCMCIA card services
versions. Looking at daemon.log, cardmgr (v3.1.31) starts, but fails because
no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices.However, kern.log reports Kernel
Card Services 3.1.22 launching, but failing becuase ds: no socket drivers
loaded.

Any/all suggestions appreciated!

   I don't know if JN is reading this thread, but it'd be nice if the
 above link would go a bit further in the What is Bering description.
 To say it is basically an enhanced Dachstein doesn't tell the new
 person what Bering is if they don't know what Dachstein is.  I think
 the answer would want to include something like:
I am :-). It takes some time to reach Europe :-)

   Bering is a miniature Linux OS that lives entirely on a 1.68 MB
diskette,
 and it's purpose is to act as a router/firewall that connects two
networks,
 filtering the content to protect the internal network.  Bering is
based
 upon a tried and true router/firewall called Dachstein (version rc2),
created
 by Charles St[ei][ie]nk[ue][eu]l[h]er, sigh.  The Bering firewall uses
iptables
 for the firewall rules and Linux kernel 2.4.x as the base OS.  Running
Bering
 on an old Pentium with 32 MB of RAM is like using one of those Linksys
or
 DLink router-firewalls, except that Bering is much more powerful,
capable,
 and extensible.

I'll buy that description if there is no copyright attach to it.
Some news about Bering beta-4 about to be released:

the initial loading of modules from boot/lib/modules now works properly
ifupdown has been fixed and do not use ifconfig and route anymore (only
ip)

Re: [Leaf-user] Bering and DOC2000

2002-02-16 Thread Patrick Nixon

  Pat,
  I don't know the exact procedure you need to follow. You may be the first
  person to try the mtd support in Bering.
 
   I'm just going to fire off some thoughts, perhaps not the
 correct answer :)
 
   I thought Charles laid it out pretty well in his hard disk
 howto and the cdrom howto boot instructions.  Even though
 the directions refer to booting from a different device, the 
 fundamental parts remain true, imo:
 
   0)  Need to be able to prove you can access the DOC
   device from a running LEAF system, thereby defining
   the modules that needed to be loaded to talk to it.
   Make note of IRQ's and addresses for comparison later.

Using something I recall as Mullenstein (John Mullen did it I think), I 
have successfully booted and loaded using the M-Systems doc.o  However, 
due to the license of M-systems driver, it can't be redistributed (or at 
least that's my understanding.)  I've even compiled my own version of the 
kernel.
 
Bering is based off 2.4.x which has MTD support directly in the kernel.
Which shouldn't be too big of a problem to test except that my system with 
the DOC doesn't have a floppy so it's a rather time consuming process to 
try different sets of files. (I know, poor me ;)

I'm relatively new at the whole development, unusual requirements thing, 
so while I am confident about compiling a kernel and whatnot, getting it t 
boot properly is shaky ground for me.

 
   1)  Need those modules that made the DOC work loaded for the 
   kernel during the bootstraping initrd process (put them 
   in /var/lib/modules?).  So the idea is to take the working 
   image from step (0) and burn a new diskette making sure that...
 
   2)  syslinux.cfg points to the boot device and the DOC modules
   get loaded during boot.
 
   Isn't that the big picture?  If so, I'd like to hear about this
 fellow's configuration in level (0), and then move on.
 
   A big factor with these PC Cards and Compact Flash Cards is that
 they don't normally get an irq assignment by the PCI bios, or
 something like that, during POST, the way the other devices do.
 Johan and a few others are hashing through the details of what
 it takes to force a mass storage card to the correct IRQ and base
 address, or at least to reserve those settings for the device to
 take when it's driver loads.  The issue is with the CardBus bridge
 and the CF bridge, which buffer data to the PCI bus and have to
 handle recognizing the different PC Cards during hot-swap operations.
 
 
   Maybe CF Cards with True IDE emulation would work easier.
 
 
The LEAF Bering release has mtd modules.

Re: [Leaf-user] help on LEAF ppp.lrp (2.3.11)

Hello Charles,

Reason why I need to have setuid-root on my pppd binary is that a
message saying:

-pppd: must be root to run -pppd, since it is not setuid-root

pops out each time I log my non-root account into my DS box.
I've tried the commands you've suggested, but still, the warning message
keeps on popping out.
I never had this problem before with the old ppp.lrp package (pppd
v2.2). Only for some reason,
I'm having problems making the old ppp package dial-out into my ISP. But
my non-root account/s
can definitely dial-in.
I really like to use this 2.3.11 pppd roll as it is already capable of
dialing out to my ISP. But first, I must figure out (I need help
actually) how to fix this problem.

 and ofcourse my non-root user/s shell is /usr/sbin/pppd

  comes with the package?

 No special tools necessary.  The setuid bit is just one of the normal
file
 mode bits used in *nix.  You see these modes when you do ls -l.
You can
 set the mode bits with the chmod command.

 To set the setuid bit on the pppd binary, just:
 chmod u+s pppd

 If for some reason you have problems with this, you can run:
 chmod 4755 pppd

 to overwrite any existing permissions, and set the setuid bit in the
 process.

 You should end up with:
 -rwsr-xr-x

 as permissions when listed with ls -l...the s indicates user execute
 permissions, with setuid.
