RE: [leaf-user] Bering / USB storage key
If you really wanted to use a usb key, you could boot from a floppy (syslinux, copy syslinux.cfg, vmlinuz, initrd.lrp) and have the rest of the packages on the key. You would need to put the usb storage module (if indeed this is the right module) in initrd.lrp and also have a usb port available on your router Mobo (Mine's an old Intel socket 7 (not super) and has a USB riser) This would speed up booting a little (how often to you need to reboot?, mine's been running for at least 2 months without trouble) and also allow you to run those big packages like ssh and squid.

But let me tell you my opinion on the subject: USB booting device is a fairly new thingy. So far I have only seen it on Athlon boards, which are for sure overkill for a router/firewall setup. Instead, I can recommend booting from a Compactflash card which is an IDE device. Thats what I use now. It works, boots very fast, and is supported by all the major boards. I have a very old Socket7 VIA board which drives my router. I am in the process to move to cable/xDSL technology, but since the major providers here in Portugal insist on providing USB modems, I'm reluctant. So, it is best to stay away from any USB technology for the moment. Others may say otherwise, but as I said, this is MY opinion. -Original Message- From: Darren Hammond [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 10:24 PM To: Blaise Lab; Liste de distribution sur LEAF (Adresse de messagerie) Subject: Re: [leaf-user] Bering / USB storage key Hi I was loosely interested in this and then I noticed that no-one had responded. I don't know much about these devices and I don't have one to test this out on, but I wonder if they operate like the USB CF card readers which use the usb-storage module. Someone has certainly used a USB CF Reader to boot Bering and I've mounted one in Bering in addition to a hard disk. If you already have one of these devices, you might want to try it. The trickiest part might be getting syslinux installed. If you have a linux workstation that recognises one of these devices, then you could use that I guess. If you want to try it and want to know which modules I used, let me know.

[leaf-user] IDE install with linux?
Hello all- I am having a rather baffling problem with installing WISP/Bearing on to a 1.0G IDE harddrive. The funny thing is, I can get the drive to work if I partition it and format it in Windows, but I can't get it to work if I do the same in linux. Here's what I am doing in linux: 1)fdisk /dev/hda 2)add 50MB FAT16 (type 6) partition as /dev/hda1 3)toggle bootable flag to true on /dev/hda1 4)use mkdosfs to create a FAT16 file system on the /dev/hda1 5)syslinux /dev/hda1 (using v1.52, also tried the -s option to no avail) 6)mount partition to /wisp (mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /wisp) 7)unzip wisp-dist_2290_pkg_wdist.zip to /wisp 8)edit /wisp/syslinux.cfg 9)install disk in router box and boot it, but it never finds the MBR that syslinux should have installed (right?)... It just sits there saying "Invalid media or replace system disk" (or whatever that error says). The destination box is a Dell XPS P200s with 32MB, and I've installed full distros on this box (and drive) before without any issues. I know that I must be missing something totally obvious, but I can't figure it out. At this point it's purely academic, as I can get it to work when installed under windows, but being that I don't run windows any more (had to take over a coworkers box to do it) it's a matter of pride that I can get it to work under Linux ;) Thanks, Zack --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

Re: [leaf-user] Motorola Surfboard/Charter Cable continued...
The situation has improved a bit. The main symptom now seems to be that the command netstat -an | grep 53 yields udp00 0.0.0.0:53 0.0.0.0:* so it does not look like the internal iface (192.168.1.254) is being bound to port 53. ps grep dnscache yields 1026 daemon S /usr/bin/dnscache Any thing special to set up the binding for dns? This is the stock Dachstein RC2, except for changes mentioned below. Thanks to all for help so far. I have fixed one of the vexation by the time-proven method: "When configuration won't work start replacing components" . I began with the natsemi.o module, which had given me trouble on my previous firewall incarnation - Dach-pppoe. THis time around, I was getting good traffic through the external i/f so I assumed the driver was fine. When I replaced the driver module (for my FA311 boards) with a newer natsemi.o, which I had compiled in Dec. 2001 (found it on a floppy), backed up the ram disk & rebooted, now all is working -- internal + external. But *only* for 192.168.1.1. A second windoze box (gets 192.168.1.2) is configured exactly as the first, but can't pass traffic. Tried pinging an IP addr, and it times out. dmesg outputs a lot of identical lines like: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=17 10.1.20.1:67 255.255.255.255:68 L=328 S=0x0 I=414nn F=0x000 T=255 (#8) I am running with a hand-configured DNS on the win2k, but I will try to let the firewall serve up DNS..

Only thing I can think of is to run syslinux _after_ unzipping the wisp package into the partition.

The change to bind to only 192.168.1.254 was made in later versions of Dachstein. IIRC, the default firewall rules prevent connections on the eth0 side. If that's the case it's not really anything to worry about. Newer setups also tell dnscache to only reply from queries from 192.168.*.* (with the IPQUERY variable), but based on your dnscache.conf file, I don't think your version does that. If you want to change it to bind only to the internal interface change the "IP=0.0.0.0" line to "IP=192.168.1.254" in /etc/dnscache.conf. But again, it should be fine as-is the problem likely lies elsewhere. > ps grep dnscache yields > 1026 daemon S /usr/bin/dnscache That's fine.

Can 192.168.1.2 ping 192.168.1.254? Can 192.168.1.1 use 192.168.1.254 for DNS resolution?

The output of "ip addr show eth0" would shed more light on the situataion. I don't have a dhclient machine handy, but I believe there is a status file in /etc/dhclient or /var/ somewhere (or output in /var/log/syslog) that gives information about what dhclient has done recently. That information would also help us understand what's going on.

All that said, I have seen a fair amount of rfc1918 traffic the WAN segment of various DSL and cable links, so it wouldn't surprise me if the DHCP broadcast traffic from 10.1.20.1 is from a neighbor on the same public network segment that has a misconfigured host. --Brad --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

[leaf-user] MAC to IP matching
Hi. Yes, it's me again. BeringRC3 system, trying to get both a small DMZ and a Masqueraded WIN net connected to 5 dedicated IP's via cable modem. My local cable company uses some sort of cisco hardware/software security that matches each IP address to a specific MAC address. The want me to connect the Cable Modem ethernet and 5 seperate ethernet cards to a hub. Then each card gets 1 IP routed to it. Then the data could pass thru the firewall and out to a 6th and 7th card for DMZ and Windows net. YUK Among other things I dont think I have a motherboard with 7 PCI slots. Can Bering tag each outgoing packet with a MAC depending on its source IP? Incomming packets should be trivial. or Can proxy arp pass the MAC address thru the firewall? Thank you for considering this issue.

[leaf-user] Problem booting Bering RC3
Hello, I'm having problems when the computer boots. It gets as far as starting to load the packages, but after it starts loading the 1st or 2nd package it reboots & starts all over. I've tried several things including using my old dos norton's diagnostics disk & ran a burn in for 2 hours no problem, testing memory, floppy drives, video, etc... but when I stuck the Bering boot disk in it did the same thing. Now here's the really weird thing... it *was* working just fine. Then I actually mounted the floppy drives to the casing, screwed the cards in, put the top back on it & took it downstairs... now it doesn't work no matter what I do. Not only that, but if I screw the screw that holds the video card in all the way it gives me an FDC error when it boots, I have to unscrew it half a turn to a full turn to get it to boot without this. I've even tried to disassemble the hardware & insert the cards into different slots, reassigning IRQs, taking everything out except the video card & 1 of the floppy drives, still no dice even with the standard Bering rc3 boot disk (which works, I tried it on at least 2 other computers & it at least gets me past the login). The only thing I can think of is maybe there's something wrong with the cpu, but I'm not even sure about that... it's an AMD k-5 p100 & using the norton's diagnostics disk it tested out at an average of ~101Mhz. All the hardware has been tested out on other computers except the motherboard & cpu. Any ideas as to whether this is a software or hardware problem?? Thanks for any help. Patrick P.S. anyone know what drivers would work with a gigafast ethernet card? the drivers disk came with rtl8139.c & compile batch file. I've not been very successful in following the instructions on the site to set up a virtual environment to compile stuff. --- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber - The world's fastest growing real-time communications platform!
