[leaf-user] hardware requirements bering router 100 mbit+

2003-02-18 Thread Ronny Aasen
hello

I have been using bering for adsl /wireless routing a long time, and
it's as stable as a rock.

But i am now going to setup a DMZ for services. this will be on a 100
mbit switched network

and it might become a 1000 mbit switched network in a year or so.

what i am wondering is.


what kind of hardware will i need to saturate a 100 mbit switched
network.

using bering, 2 nics and no vpn or masquerading this is pure routing.

btw: can bering support ospf protocol ? 

mvh

Re: [leaf-user] Changes in WISP-Dist

2003-02-18 Thread Vladimir I.
Ok. I tested wavemon with lucent. Maybe it doesn't work with 
newer hostap drivers.

I'll check the MAC filter again. Please tell me the build number
you're using.

 Sure does
 The message you get is
 iwconfig netcs0 mode Master
 [: customer2: unexpected operator
 iwpriv netcs0 maccmd 1
 
 What I did in this case was just uncomment the two examples you had
 in the ethers file
 
 
 Also on the wavemon I see the following error
 netcs0 (WE) : Buffer for request 8B0B too small (0436)
 fatal error: could not get range information

  Does the same thing happen with the latest image?

  Has been this way for quite a while now just never got around to
  mentioning it before. If you just set one mac address it's fine if you
  change to use multiple mac's it will error out when the macs load

Re: [leaf-user] shorewall masquerading packets behind ipsec tunnel

2003-02-18 Thread Erich Titl
Lynn

thanks for the reply

I finally got it running, it happened to be an error in the masq file. I 
masqued to ipsec0 instead of eth0. Tom has done a great job to document 
shorewall, now either I am not attentive enough to translate all this into 
a sensible configuration and thus stumble on all those gotchas or it really 
is still somewhat complex.

My set up is probably not what you would call standard but with wireless 
being more and more frequent configurations like mine may pop up from time 
to time, so it might be interesting for others to have an example. I might 
try to document this.

After ipsec0 receives and un-encrypts the packets, the true

If this did not hold true, your mountaingate LAN client could
never receive a reponse from the valleygate subnet.
I imagine that treating the mountaingate subnet as a local
network on valleygate via ipsec0 in Shorewall will likely
solve your problem. This would also allow the wireless link
to remain encrypted.

Subject: [leaf-user] Bearing 1.1 winimage problems UPDATE



First of all - I want to support all the other comments on 1.1 release. I'm
a huge fan and have a growing base of customers who love it.

So on that basis I'm hopefully this is not a trivial finger issues on my
part. My head is getting scrambled at this point, but I can't see that I'm
doing anything wrong.

Excited that 1.1 became available that same day that I needed to build new
Baring system from scratch I quickly downloaded the winimage and started to
successfully create disks.

All went well until I tried to back-up the packages I'd altered. On every
occasion it claimed the disks had got sector problems on just about every
sector.

Just to check, I've retried this operation several times with no problems
with 1.0 on the same machine using the same batch of blank disks, but can
replicate the problem every time with the 1.1 image. I've even redownloaded
the image from multiple mirrors.

I'm trying to load CD ROM support to load additional lrps from bigger
medium.

At this stage, all I'm doing is:
$ mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
$ cp /mnt/*.o /boot/lib/modules/.
$ umount /mnt
$ lrcfg
Option 3.2 to edit initrd modules file

Nothing new is run at this stage, just simple used everyday commands.
Returning to the backup package screen and attempting to back-up anything
screws the floppy with sector errors everywhere.

Help please.

AW: [leaf-user] Update: Short term LEAF project goals

2003-02-18 Thread Alex Rhomberg

 GUI Pre-rollout Config
 ==
We are thinking it'd be cool, if you wanted to, to download
 a fat CD of everything LEAF on it, burn the thing, and use it to
 build yourself a custom LEAF floppy.  You'd do this before you
 rollout that floppy to the LEAF box.  You could save your changes.
 You could upgrade to a new LEAF version seamlessly.  We could make
 the pre-config program a Java GUI, a Python GUI, or a Web/Cgi thing.
 This is very dependant on new packages and a new central-db.

This is a good place to advertise my work: I have written a bunch of scripts
I use for pre-configuring Bering firewalls. They are useful for separating
hardware dependent and configuration dependent stuff from the standard
packages. I also find it much simpler to upgrade kernels or packages,
because of that separation.

The scripts provide no GUI but I think they could be useful for generating
packages with the configuration created in the GUI.

Regards
Alex

A decent pentium class system should be capable of saturating a couple 
100 MBit links.  You will need to use server class PCI NIC's (like the 
 DEC based cards using the tulip driver, or the 3COM 3C905...I've heard 
good things about the Intel based cards as well, but haven't tried them 
personally).  You'll also want a good PCI chipset (hard to quantify 
without getting into lots of low-level hardware details).

As a general rule of thumb, processing a packet takes a fairly fixed 
amount of CPU, so if your saturated 100 Mbits of traffic is lots of 
small packets, you'll need more CPU than if the traffic is mainly large 
packets for bulk transfers.

I think anything over a P133/166 should work fine, and something like a 
P-2 or P-3 system with a BX chipset (or better...anything with a 100 MHz 
FSB) would give you quite a bit of headroom.

Re: [leaf-user] Update: Short term LEAF project goals

2003-02-18 Thread Phillip . Watts


You asked for comments:
I long ago created my own database, wherein
XT_DEVICE=eth0
XT_IF= 204.001.001.001
XT_MASK=24
IT_DEVICE=wlan0
   ROUTERTYPE=tunnel
IT_DHCPS=yes
A1_DEVICE=eth1
   SPOOFING=no
 etc,etc.  (about 80 variables)
 And a single python function which can be called from a
 command line as in:
  /var/www/cgi-bin/xlfixconf.pyXT_GW=204.001.001.254
  or from another python program.

  This is simple.   If you import the above, it is all valid bash and
  variables can be used in all the networking and firewall scripts.
  It takes a little extra code to build something like ipsec.conf
   or dhcpd.conf.

  Anyway, the point is its simple to look at and simple to edit and
 Python or Perl builds a hash table in milliseconds.
   Any sort of real  database technology would be a burdensome
   complication.

   Now.  Given an organization like above, with creative use of underlines
   to create a hierarchy,  It would be quite simple to write a 2 way parser
   bash-variables  --  XML.

   I should also mention, there is a subject which rarely mentioned on LEAF,
   Group Permits.  This is where you use netfilter to allow access to subnets
   and servers and services by groups of ip's and maybe domains.
   This deserves some db kind of thinking.  I've kind of brute forced this stuff
   so far and haven't designed a decent database yet.  But it is worth
thinking about in any design.  I think Cisco calls thisAccess Lists.

Oh, can't speak for Perl, but after 1.5, Python gets BIG.
   1.5 is fine for my purposes.  Anyway, size matters.

Subject:  [leaf-user] Update:  Short term LEAF project goals




This is an unofficial message to let folks know what
the short term goals are for the LEAF project, the hot
topics being developed, just in case you're not monitoring
the leaf-devel list.  I wasn't asked to write this, but I
figured it'd might help a bit.  Please toss in your comments
if you'd like.  More communication is welcome.

LEAF is a loose collection of kind people who share a common
interest in embedded Linux.  There's no top-down organization
here, per se, but rather the following ideas are what people
are most excited about and working on.

They are listed in an order that likely denotes their place in
our unoffical roadmap.  The point here being that it'd be tough
to build a GUI admin system when you know there's a new package
system coming out shortly:

  1) Central configuration database
  2) Central package repository
  3) New package system
  4) GUI preconfig
  5) GUI admin



Central Configuartion Database

   This is a way of storing the variables and values that make
your LEAF box unique, like your IP addresses, in one single
location and making a new command, perhaps leaf-cdb, that is
used to access the db.  Values like IP, netmask,and hostname
that are common across packages will be listed once.  No more
entering the same data 5 times across 5 packages!  The current
idea is to use a stucture similar to the linux /proc set of
subdirectories.  Another idea is to burp that structure out of an
xml database, perhaps stored remotely.  Simplicity is a main goal
of this project, a goal that contrasts with XML to some extent,
but XML may be essential for GUI admin.


Central Package Repository
===
   No more looking all over our website for packages.
All of them will now be stored in a single repository.
Probably still fat16 with 8.3 filenames.  Not sure.



New Package System
==
   A new package system would use the new central-db to get
it's values from.  We are interested in making the packages
a LOT smarter and making it possible to load them from remote
locations.  A smart package contains a manifest of all it's
variables and all possible values, offering that information
to and incorporating those into the central-db.  The run-time
files that each package uses, the ones we customize nowadays
like /etc/dnscache/env/IP, will be generated at boot time in
the future, similarly to the way the /etc/rc?.d directories
are generated on the fly now.  This packaging system will
require each package to provide a template of it's dynamic
files.  Templates are like mad-libs.  You get the values
out of the db, and once you fill them in, it's funny.



GUI Pre-rollout Config
==
   We are thinking it'd be cool, if you wanted to, to download
a fat CD of everything LEAF on it, burn the thing, and use it to
build yourself a custom LEAF floppy.  You'd do this before you
rollout that floppy to the LEAF box.  You could save your changes.

[leaf-user] Re: Bering vs. Bering-Uclib

2003-02-18 Thread Eric House
 Hey! Yahoo and an increasing number of other sites are using a
 fsck'ed form of load-balancing that depends on your machine
 (firewall anyway) answering tons of requests from placed DNS servers
 around the world.  The LEAF variants don't readily conform to making
 all these replies, so there are issues with this type of
 load-balancing working if the webpage does NOT specify a default or
 fall-back procedure does not work as expected. If this is your
 problem, you should see a ton of DNS requests in your logs denied at
 the firewall OR a ton of connect connections via DNS ports on the
 firewall (that sometimes chokes out a connection).  In any case,
 this behaviour is non-rfc compliant and not readily fixable until it
 can be changed to behave in a rfc-compliant way. I can say that it
 may or may not work depending on the particular code of the html
 page that is processed. If you can link a 'failed page', I can tell
 you whether or not this is the problem.

Two sites that work great when I connect directly to the dsl modem
(using pppoe on a Debian Testing system) but are unusable when I go
through LEAF are epicurious.com and winespectator.com.  Yahoo.com too,
as discussed.  They're not blocked, just incredibly -- 10 minutes per
page -- slow.  Also, it helps to click on the links multiple times, as
if most outgoing packets resulting from those clicks were being
dropped.

I'm not seeing any denied packets in the shorewall logs when running
Bering.  I don't have shorewall on the laptop.  There are no ports
open other than to 192.168.1.* (as per /etc/hosts.allow).

Two other pieces of information.

1) Bering and Bering-uClib behave the same.  I was wrong before about
   only the uClib version having the problem.  I've had some perceived
   performance problems with Bering-uClib at one location but it was
   nothing like what I'm seeing now with stock Bering 1.0.

2) Bering does NOT have this problem when used on at ATT cable
   connection.  Yahoo and the rest are fine.  So it's somehow related
   to pppoe or maybe to PacBell/SBC.

I've seen this with Mozilla and lynx and links.  Have not yet checked
whether it happens if the host is not running Linux, but can't see how
that'd make a difference.

Thanks,

--Eric

2003-02-18 Thread Ray Olszewski
Preliminary comment: I just connected to the two sites Eric mentions as 
problems, and I have none (I use Yahoo all the time, so that's OK here 
too). Although I don't run Bering, I do use SBC service (but not PPPoE). My 
test is from a NAT'd host running Windows 98 and Netscape 4.something.

Specific comments below.

I'm not seeing any denied packets in the shorewall logs when running
Bering.


If you check the actual rulesets (with shorewall status), do you see any 
rules that are DENYing or REJECTing a lot of packets without logging them?

If you can tell ... *where* in the sequence is the loading slow? For 
example, does the URL *resolve* promptly but then take a long time to load? 
Does the main download proceed quickly but secondary downloads (e.g., 
images) slow things down? Is it someplace else?

In the two situations you are comparing (Bering and Sarge), how are the 
systems doing DNS resolution? If (for example) the Sarge system uses the 
SBC resolvers directly but systems behind Bering access DNS through 
dnscache on the router, then try having them access the SBC resolvers 
directly to see if that helps.

How do the two systems differ in their handling of auth (ident) queries? 
Sometimes having a firewall DENY or even REJECT such queries introduces 
delays (relative to either actually answering them or leaving the port 
unfirewalled but also not listening ... this was a big problem with SMTP 
and LRP a couple of years ago).

How often does your PPPoE address change?

Are you using the same workstation in both instances (I infer a laptop 
running Sarge from scattered parts of your report) ... one connected to a 
LAN NATd by Bering, the other connected directly to the DSL router? IF 
not, does doing so change anything?

Oh, and not to quibble ... but is the 10 minutes per page a real, timed 
test, or just a falsely precise translation of incredibly ... slow? If 
the second, please do an actual timed test and tell us how long it takes to 
download some specific URL, for example, the home page of winespectator.com 
. (I ask this because some specific delay times, like just over 3 
minutes, are magic numbers that suggest specific problem sources. But 
10 minutes per page itself suggests nothing specific to me.)

I don't have shorewall on the laptop.  There are no ports
open other than to 192.168.1.* (as per /etc/hosts.allow).


I don't know what this means ... if the laptop is the Debian-Sarge system 
you mention above, it would need to be ACCEPTing traffic to its PPPoE 
address when run directly. So are you describing the settings of the Linux 
client when it is running behind the Bering firewall?

Two other pieces of information.

1) Bering and Bering-uClib behave the same.  I was wrong before about
   only the uClib version having the problem.  I've had some perceived
   performance problems with Bering-uClib at one location but it was

2) Bering does NOT have this problem when used on at ATT cable
   connection.  Yahoo and the rest are fine.  So it's somehow related
   to pppoe or maybe to PacBell/SBC.


Or to differing DNS methods. How do they compare between SBC and ATT?


I've seen this with Mozilla and lynx and links.  Have not yet checked
whether it happens if the host is not running Linux, but can't see how
that'd make a difference.


Me either. But I can't see why the other stuff you suggest as candidate 
causes would make a difference either. So I'd suggest you do this test.

new package system.  If you change, by hand or by script,
your ip address for example, the built in dependancy checking
triggers all packages that use the ip address to restart,
in the correct order, and reread their configs.






I just finished seeing monowall and the screenshots are great. It is
just what I had in mind and Eric Wolzak has asked for ideas too. The
monowall interface encapsulates most requirements. It may do good to
invite Michael - the monowall author to participate here.



Link to a screenshot?




Apart from what has been listed below, the GUI must have a webmin like
definition to allow authors to write new package screens easily and
confirm to a standard. If this is done, then changing themes will change
the look and feel across all packages.



Thanks for the comments.  One idea was that the package
author completely describes all the variables and possible
choices, then the new package screen is generated dynamically.

Given a program written in Java or Python, which may be preferable
because they can access drives and do other secure transactions
much easier than a web script ever could, everyone would need to
learn those if they wanted to code their own custom new package
screens.

Because that's not gonna happen, the idea for dynamic config pages
seems more appealing.  If the package author wants more latitude in
design, a highly laudable goal, then I'm not adverse to adding whatever
functionality is within reason.  The joy here is that I can to
tremendously powerful things with Java, in no time and very easily,
simply because it is mature.




We also need to look at SSL support if web based administration is
contemplated. 

Mohan



Java has ssh support built in.  The LEAF system requirements
are:  sshd.lrp.   That presents a space issue for any single
floppy rollout, our classic format.

cheers,

ppp.lrp.

The problem with incorporating module dependencies into packages is that
modules are supposed to present a standard application programming
interface that decouples the application from the hardware.  PPP can in
fact be run over ethernet, or over standard serial ports, or over special
multi-port serial interfaces.  Even if you put something in the packaging
system that can recognize the absence of a minimum functionality (some
type of point to point communication channel), you will still have
confusion where the application calls for multiple channel types used in
different ways (PPPoE into a serial control channel for an embedded
device, for example).

I think that in most cases coupling the base user-level package with an
application-specific set of kernel modules makes more sense than
integrating the two.  If you really want idiot-level integration, then
fall back on application-specific floppy image-style delivery.
Bering's documentation is much more effective in the general case than
trying to integrate into packages items that don't belong together in all
cases.

You asked for comments:
I long ago created my own database, wherein



Thanks for posting your information about the
db you created.  In our discussions, we've called
this a flat databse, meaning that the entire
database is a single bash sourceable text file
containing name=value pairs and comments.

We discussed the costs and benefits of this format
at some length, and I encourage you to join the thread
on leaf-devel to contribute your thoughts, or maybe
just read it and see if you concur with the people
who've been researching this for a few months.

A single flat file was my initial choice.



XT_DEVICE=eth0
XT_IF= 204.001.001.001
XT_MASK=24
IT_DEVICE=wlan0
   ROUTERTYPE=tunnel
IT_DHCPS=yes
A1_DEVICE=eth1
   SPOOFING=no
 etc,etc.  (about 80 variables)
 And a single python function which can be called from a
 command line as in:
  /var/www/cgi-bin/xlfixconf.pyXT_GW=204.001.001.254
  or from another python program.

  This is simple.   If you import the above, it is all valid bash and
  variables can be used in all the networking and firewall scripts.
  It takes a little extra code to build something like ipsec.conf
   or dhcpd.conf.



Yes we think sourcing a file like yours is beneficial.



  Anyway, the point is its simple to look at and simple to edit and
 Python or Perl builds a hash table in milliseconds.
   Any sort of real  database technology would be a burdensome
   complication.



A real database would be burdensome, that's true, when you take a first look,
and we've agreed to some extent that a complex xml database on the LEAF box is
bogus for this very reason.  David and Charles are voicing their wish for this
whole thing to increase simplicity.  But we have not ruled this out, because
XML makes it possible to easily maintain a GUI admin.  Perhaps you agree with
the point I made before that having to modify your front-end gui and back-end
api every time a new package comes out with different config is not preferrable
to doing all that dynamically.






   Now.  Given an organization like above, with creative use of underlines
   to create a hierarchy,  It would be quite simple to write a 2 way parser
   bash-variables  --  XML.



We agree on this, and I offered it as my request.  If we use XML,
it should also generate a flat file of bash sourcable var=values.





   I should also mention, there is a subject which rarely mentioned on LEAF,
   Group Permits.  This is where you use netfilter to allow access to subnets
   and servers and services by groups of ip's and maybe domains.
   This deserves some db kind of thinking.  I've kind of brute forced this stuff
   so far and haven't designed a decent database yet.  But it is worth
thinking about in any design.  I think Cisco calls thisAccess Lists.



Is netfilter a part of shorewall or a seperate .lrp or just
part of the main distro?  Any command can be described in
the database I think.  The database is _not_ my specialty ;-)







Oh, can't speak for Perl, but after 1.5, Python gets BIG.
   1.5 is fine for my purposes.  Anyway, size matters.




I think you're running python.lrp is that correct?
Would you paste in console based python hello world?
curious,
matt

 At least, that is the way I figure it.

Your first rule actually insists that the CLIENT port be 1021 -- rather

 I will attempt the Telnet idea later.  Work doesn't open very many ports.

Also be sure that your sshd is listening on 0.0.0.0 and/or on the

[leaf-user] upgrading procedures

2003-02-18 Thread Fabrice CHARLEUX
Hi

I was wondering what was the best way to upgrade to
each new Bering version.
- Retyping the configurations files from the previous ones (in
case there are major changes in the config files)
- Backing up the previous config files and copy them back
to the current version
- upgrading the current configuration with each new LRP manually
- other ways ?

I'm running the Bering's distro and have a diskless configuration,
with an isdn dialup on demand connection, and 2 eth.

Thank you for your help.

[leaf-user] rtl8139.o and Bering 1.1

2003-02-18 Thread Chris Hackett
Hello List!

I'm trying to build a Bering 1.1 disk and am wondering if there are any
known issues with the rtl8139.o and the Bering 1.1 image?  I have put it in
the /lib/modules and made the appropriate mods to get it to load.  During
the boot process, I see something like this:


Loading modules
rtl8139 - using /lib/modules
insmod: unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister
insmod: unresolved symbol pci_drv_register

I'm using the rtl8139.o in the same machine with the Eiger2Beta image, and I
don't see the unresolved symbol messages with that image.  Does anyone have
ideas?  Are these messages even important?  Or can they safely be ignored?

Also, after the image laods, when I log into the box, an ip link shows
only the 'lo interface .. no eth0 or eth1 that I can find.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks!!

Re: [leaf-user] My Dachstein not quite up and running

2003-02-18 Thread Chris Low
Just got back to work today after a long weekend and ready to try tackling 
this prob again...

First off, was it okay for me to remove the $ from: 
INTERN_SERVERS=tcp_$192.168.1.2_smtp_10.10.10.200_smtp or should I put it 
back in?


MX records are the DNS entries that tell remote systems how to contact 
your mail server (as opposed to A records, which match system names to IP 
addresses).  If you don't have an MX record tying your domain name to the 
IP of your mail server, you won't get mail from the internet at 
large.  Note that this doesn't mean you won't get mail...your MX records 
could point somewhere else (like your ISP or the registrar for your domain 
name), and that system could forward mail to you.

Do I need to update them with the following setup: Actual mail server 
address: 208.57.96.252, controlled by the ISP, forwards mail from their 
server to ours through their router to 192.168.1.2 (what used to be our 
Exchange server, but is now eth 0 on the firewall)? Since the firewall is 
set to forward traffic received at port 25 of 192.168.1.2 through to 
10.10.10.200 (new ip of our Exchange server) wouldn't it work without 
having to change the MX records with our ISP? Assuming of course that 
portforwarding is actually setup and working correctly.

[leaf-user] Ann: LEAF Bering-uClibc 1.1 and LEAF Bering-uClibc 1.0.3

2003-02-18 Thread K.-P. Kirchdrfer
LEAF Bering-uClibc 1.1 is ready for download at:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=13751

This release is an upgrade for LEAF Bering-uClibc 1.0.x, in sync with 
Bering-1.1 and partly based on the wonderful work of the original Bering 
crew.  
Some of the new features:
- Kernel 2.4.20
- updates of various packages (shorewall, tinylogin, ipsec,...)
- cleanup of etc.lrp
- usual bugfixes

For details, you may read the changelog:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/mod.php?mod=userpagemenu=91003page_id=39

A bootable ISO-image with all packages currently available for the 
Bering-uClibc environment can be downloaded from the cvs repository:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/leaf/bin/bering-uclibc/cd/Bering-uClibc-1.1.iso

This image is bootable via a floppy bootdisk image and not with isolinux - 
allowing it to boot on older PC's with a defect BIOS, but please note, some 
may still not work as noted by HP Anvin. 

For more information about syslinux/isolinux browse to:
http://syslinux.zytor.com


In addition LEAF Bering-uClibc 1.0.3 is available at:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=13751

This is a maintenance release for Bering-uClibc 1.0 series.
The only change to from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3 is a bugfix for ash compiled against 
uClibc, which solves a few problems with weblet.lrp.

Every help improving Bering-uClibc and getting it ready for download, has been 
appreciated.

Thanks for your attention.

on behalf of Bering-uClibc team

Just got back to work today after a long weekend and ready to try tackling 
this prob again...

First off, was it okay for me to remove the $ from: 
INTERN_SERVERS=tcp_$192.168.1.2_smtp_10.10.10.200_smtp or should I put it 
back in?

The $ should be left out...you want:
INTERN_SERVERS=tcp_192.168.1.2_smtp_10.10.10.200_smtp


MX records are the DNS entries that tell remote systems how to contact 
your mail server (as opposed to A records, which match system names to IP 
addresses).  If you don't have an MX record tying your domain name to the 
IP of your mail server, you won't get mail from the internet at 
large.  Note that this doesn't mean you won't get mail...your MX records 
could point somewhere else (like your ISP or the registrar for your domain 
name), and that system could forward mail to you.

Do I need to update them with the following setup: Actual mail server 
address: 208.57.96.252, controlled by the ISP, forwards mail from their 
server to ours through their router to 192.168.1.2 (what used to be our 
Exchange server, but is now eth 0 on the firewall)? Since the firewall is 
set to forward traffic received at port 25 of 192.168.1.2 through to 
10.10.10.200 (new ip of our Exchange server) wouldn't it work without 
having to change the MX records with our ISP? Assuming of course that 
portforwarding is actually setup and working correctly.

It doesn't sound like you need to update any MX records.  You should 
test external e-mail connectivity (which tests all port-forwarding and 
masquerading) by attempting to connect to the public IP (208.57.96.252) 
via the internet (ie not from a local machine).

Output from netstat -nr:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags   MSS Window  irtt Iface
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0 0  0 eth0

0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG0 0  0 eth0


Your routing looks OK.  I can't comment on your IP address setup without 
the output of ip addr list, although it looks like things are setup OK 
from some of the details extracted from your ipchains listing.


Output from ipchains -nvL:
Chain input (policy DENY: 0 packets, 0 bytes):


Looks OK, with a rule in place to accept inbound SMTP traffic.


Chain forward (policy DENY: 0 packets, 0 bytes):


Looks OK, with a reverse masquerade rule required for the SMTP 
port-forwading to work properly.

Chain output (policy DENY: 0 packets, 0 bytes):


Looks OK.


Chain fairq (1 references):


Looks OK.

Looks like you're setup to port-forward from 192.168.2 to your internal 
exchange box on 10.10.10.200.

##


Let us know what happens.  If memory serves, there could be potential 
problems with the exchange server setup.  If things aren't working, 
provide the networking setup of the exchange box for reference (IIRC, 
the output of route print and ipconfig /all, but I think this 
depends on your windows version).

You should also verify exchange is properly listening to the 
10.10.10.200 address by running netstat -an.  You want to see 
something like the following:

AW: [leaf-user] upgrading procedures

2003-02-18 Thread Alex Rhomberg
 I was wondering what was the best way to upgrade to
 each new Bering version.
 - Retyping the configurations files from the previous ones (in
 case there are major changes in the config files)
 - Backing up the previous config files and copy them back
 to the current version
 - upgrading the current configuration with each new LRP manually
 - other ways ?

I wrote some scripts for that, which should make upgrading and maintaing
multiple firewalls really easy, if you have a linux / unix box with root
access (could also be virtual):

diffleaf: Show all the differences between your installed packages and the
default packages, i.e. the configuration files you edited.

makeleaf: Combine custom configuration files (normally few) with the
standard packages to get a pre-configured firewall

The packages are now available in the patches section (look for patches by
alexrh) while I'm hoping for developer access. As soon as I get that, I
shall upload a much improved version including e.g. automatic resolving of
kernel module dependencies.

Cheers
Alex

[leaf-user] Bering Kernel Source?

2003-02-18 Thread Nick Taylor
I'd like to try Bering, but only have a 486SX to try it out on,
so I believe that I'll need to recompile the kernel.

The only sources that I can find are for 2.4.18, which was for
Bering 1.0-RC1. Will this work with 1.1, or will I need to get
the source for 2.4.20?

Not having tried it, can a 2.4 kernel be recompiled to work on
a 486SX, or am I going to slam into a brick-wall straight away
on that front?

Thanks

Nick

RE: [leaf-user] Bering Kernel Source?

2003-02-18 Thread Peter Mueller
Hi Nick,
 
 I'd like to try Bering, but only have a 486SX to try it out on,
 so I believe that I'll need to recompile the kernel.

I think this is correct, Bering is compiled for 486DX by default..

 The only sources that I can find are for 2.4.18, which was for
 Bering 1.0-RC1. Will this work with 1.1, or will I need to get
 the source for 2.4.20?

http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/

specifically,
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/development/kernel/Ber
ing-2.4.20.config
and the packages from the image file are what you'll need.

 Not having tried it, can a 2.4 kernel be recompiled to work on
 a 486SX, or am I going to slam into a brick-wall straight away
 on that front?

I think you should be O.K. as long as you recompile your kernel.

Hope that helps,

Peter

RE: [leaf-user] Update: Short term LEAF project goals

2003-02-18 Thread S Mohan
While I'm not that aware of various options, I think a few modules are
mandatory or have to go with some packages. E.g. ipsec.o with
ipsec(509).lrp, bridge.o with bridge.lrp, netfilter with tc.lrp etc. I
was looking at this. In addition, 90-95% of the users would use a common
combination. Dial up connections use PPP over serial ports etc. Such
popular combinations can also be packaged to gether.

 Give me an example please of a package that requires
 you to go out and find a .o module you need.

ppp.lrp.

The problem with incorporating module dependencies into packages is that
modules are supposed to present a standard application programming
interface that decouples the application from the hardware.  PPP can in
fact be run over ethernet, or over standard serial ports, or over
special multi-port serial interfaces.  Even if you put something in the
packaging system that can recognize the absence of a minimum
functionality (some type of point to point communication channel), you
will still have confusion where the application calls for multiple
channel types used in different ways (PPPoE into a serial control
channel for an embedded device, for example).

I think that in most cases coupling the base user-level package with an
application-specific set of kernel modules makes more sense than
integrating the two.  If you really want idiot-level integration, then
fall back on application-specific floppy image-style delivery.
Bering's documentation is much more effective in the general case than
trying to integrate into packages items that don't belong together in
all cases.

I'm referring to only packaging meaning having within the same lrp.
Additionally, the package installer should load all modules that are
tarred within the package as they are deemed necessary for the utilities
to work. I'm not suggesting that the module be compiled or integrated.
Can we do away with manual steps when it is obviously needed. That is
all. Sorry if my earlier posts have conveyed otherwise.

Hello List!

I'm trying to build a Bering 1.1 disk and am wondering if there are any
known issues with the rtl8139.o and the Bering 1.1 image?  I have put it
in the /lib/modules and made the appropriate mods to get it to load.
During the boot process, I see something like this:


Loading modules
rtl8139 - using /lib/modules
insmod: unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister
insmod: unresolved symbol pci_drv_register

I'm using the rtl8139.o in the same machine with the Eiger2Beta image,
and I don't see the unresolved symbol messages with that image.  Does
anyone have ideas?  Are these messages even important?  Or can they
safely be ignored?

Also, after the image laods, when I log into the box, an ip link shows
only the 'lo interface .. no eth0 or eth1 that I can find.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks!!

The 8139too is the 'version 2' module that should work (possibly better)

was looking at this. In addition, 90-95% of the users would use a common

popular combinations can also be packaged to gether.



I rather favor a mechanism whereby package-module dependencies can be 
expressed in the package. Including kernel modules in .lrp's like ppp, 
pppoa or shorwall (just to name one) will yield nightmarish results when 
we try to introduce a new kernel version.

I agree 100% with Tom. Some form of dependancy stating/checking
is already on the board when the packaging format gets changed.
The last thing you would _ever_ want to do is stick a kernel module
within a package. Some packages change themselves to what form
of modular dependancy/patching is needed from version to version,
Allowing a 'dep check' would allow much easier updating on all fronts.

 Java has ssh support built in.  The LEAF system requirements

Matt,
Are lshd, stunnel, or zebedee also feasible options with Java???

RE: [leaf-user] Testing dial-up modem

2003-02-18 Thread Greg Playle
Richard:
Thank you for the reply.  Yes, I followed those procedures.

I've set the system-wide options for ppp to debug, which was helpful.
The /var/log/messages now has the chat scripts results in it.
The ABORT commands appear to be sent, and the ATZ^M, but the chat script 
gives an expect (OK), then an alarm and a failed, with no further 
indication of what failed.
For some reason, the SAY messages didn't show up either, so I removed 
them.
There does not appear to be anything in syslog or ppp.log that adds any 
information; ppp.log indicates the same process.

I never hear any dialing, and I see no change in the status lights on the 
modem.

ifup shows ppp0 present.

Are there other things I should try for debug?

Richard sent:

Have you followed the procedures in

Granted, accepted and think it is better. I did not think of this angle that
modules may not keep pace. In some cases, due to sequence of loading, older
modules might replace newer ones.

Maybe be check while loading using lsmod to see if appropriate/ required
module is loaded would be preferable.
