[Leaf-user] ISDN Modem (External) and BERING Beta 4 - No response to LCP requests
G'day all, I have recently changed over from another LRP to bering. The problem I am having is i dial into my ISP and send LCP ConfReq 's that seem to be ignored by the ISP's server. I tried calling my ISP to see if they could shed some light on this situation. But they seem to be having the same problem as me (they don't recieve a LCP ConfReq from me so they send me a LCP packet to which they get no response, and thus hang up on me) 1. Our ISP requires CHAP authentication 2. The ISDN modem is external and I have used it as a 'normal' modem in previous version of LRP ((which was FreeSCO )) 3. I am using BERING Beta 4, on a P166Mhz, 32Mb RAM, 1.44Mb Floppy Drive, Realtek 8139 10/100 NIC (8139too.o), 3Com Office Connect "External" 64K ISDN Modem I have included my /etc/ppp/peers/provider, /etc/chatscripts/provider, /etc/ppp/options and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets files /etc/ppp/peers/provider kdebug 1 debug ipcp-accept-local ipcp-accept-remote lock noauth defaultroute name /dev/ttyS1 115200 modem crtscts connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider" /etc/chatscripts/provider TIMEOUT 8 ABORT "BUSY" ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT "VOICE" ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "NO ANSWER" "" ATZ "" ATS60=64S70=0S80=0 OK ATDT CONNECT '' /etc/options hide-password no-ipx /etc/ppp/chap-secrets * Thanx Jay ___ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user

I haven't seen a reference in the thread to Syslinux'ing the hd itself to make it bootable. This is necessary to get it to boot, correct??? I would definately add a note to the appropiate section either way (either required or not).

[Leaf-user] libz.lrp (1.1.4) for openssh available
As it was recently mentionned in the LEAF mailing lists a vulnerability has been found in the Zlib compression library (which is provided by the libz.lrp package). This package is being used by the openssh suite (ssh, sshd, scp, sftp) and is now available in it's latest secure version (1.1.4). Openssh users should update immediately.

The hardware I am using precludes me from doing it the floppy way. Otherwise it definitely would have been easier to copy the modules to the floppy, boot on it, mount it once booted, copy the modules to the /boot/lib/modules directory on the tmpfs, then back up initrd.lrp using lrcfg. Backing up modules.lrp doesn't back up /boot/lib/modules, as far as I can see. > 2/ You make a linux ***ext2*** partition on your hard disk and ***unpack*** all > the packages you need there.

There are basically two strategies if you want to boot Bering (or any LEAF variant) distro from an hard disk (be careful: you loose the security attached to a write-protected media): 1/ You make a ***msdos*** partition on your hard disk, install syslinux on it an copy all the packages you need on the hard disk. Do not unpack anything. You modify syslinux.cfg to declare the new PKGPATH to hdx and you put your ide modules in /boot/lib/modules and save this in modules.lrp (do that on a floppy distro before copying initrd.lrp to the IDE disk). linux kernel and initrd.lrp will be loaded thanks to syslinux, the ide modules will be loaded then and after that the /linuxrc script will load the other packages from the hard disk. Bering will be run from a /tmpfs fs as with a floppy distro. Your IDE disk is just another boot media where your packages are stored. 2/ You make a linux ***ext2*** partition on your hard disk and ***unpack*** all the packages you need there. This is a more "hackish" approach where you get a quasi linux distro on your disk. Not really recommended and requires some knowledge of the program structure and some tuning too.

[Leaf-user] pppd vs Courier I-modem and Dachstein
Hi, I've used Eigerstein successfully for a year or more now, and been very happy with it. I recently decided to put together a new firewall box that could connect in multiple ways depending upon how I booted it. I put three ethernet NIC's in a box, a 56K modem, and an USRobotics Courier I-Modem ISDN modem. I configured Dachstein for a DMZ firewall and made three variants: ethernet input, 56K modem input, and isdn input. The ethernet and 56K modem variants work flawlessly. My problem is that the I-modem won't automatically use multilink PPP to establish both 64K channels unless I have it in "internet mode", which means that after establishing the connection (message CONNECT 64000), it wants to go immediately into PPP mode and THEN do the authentication, as opposed to the way I'm used to connecting with an analog modem, where I have a chatscript that authenticates, and THEN pppd goes to PPP mode. My question is: How do I get pppd to go right to PPP mode after getting the CONNECT 64000 message and THEN authenticating using pap or chap?

My goal is to get have dial-on-demand, so that if I do a ping and any internet traffic, line will be open automatically, and then shut down after some 5-10mins without activity.. I try ppp start, but for no reason I can see the darn pc dialing my ISP... What is string my modem is on /dev/ttyS1 but when serial starts I see it saying something about /dev/ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq=4) is a 16550a I don't even see anything in the LOG, telling me that it was trying to make a connect or so..

Chad: A real thanks for your contribution. I think it will be really useful for users who have been requesting IPSEC support within Bering. May I include your mail content in a "Bering cookbook" documentation that will complement the user's guide and will gather contributions from Bering users describing specific configurations? The first release of the cookbook could contain the following contributions A Bering dialup-modem configuration (me) A pcmcia/dialup-modem emergency router (me) PPPoE setup in Bering (Eric) ISDN setup in Bering (Eric) Wireless and orinoco setup (Bob Pocius) IPSEC (Chad) I will post shortly the first two with their xml code that could be used by those interested as a template.
