Re: [leaf-user] Improving wireless link
Charles As Steve pointed out, distance is one key element. Could you tell us a bit more on your installation like distance, antennas used e.t.c. My installation does not really apply, although I have fine bandwidth with Lucent/Avaya cards and 14 dB external antennas. Distance in my case is ridiculous, only about 300 metres. The only additional layer I applied was IPSec to tunnel traffic. Henry Psenicka posted some Information a few months back and there was an article in SysAdmin onhis wireless installation. cheers Erich At 22:51 04.06.2003 -0500, you wrote: Steve Wright wrote: Charles, On the basis that there is some distance involved ; (an assumption) My understanding is that some of the cheaper (dlink in particular) wireless gear has 'timing issues' when the A/Ps are physically far apart. In the extreme, you will have to go to a proprietry fix, viz turbocell, or replace the A/Ps with something a little more tolerant of distance. 802.11 was never intended to travel great distances. Indeed it was part of the 802.11 specification to actually prevent (ha ha) this from happening - the reason for the proprietry RF connectors. In summary, many standard 802.11 wireless cards will do great distances without getting flaky, but I have heard that the dlink gear is not of that category. Other cards such the Orinoco PC-cards combined with turbocell work very well indeed at distances up to 20km, and provide true data rates in the order of 9MBit/sec (I am told). I don't like the idea of proprietry *anything*, and I wish there was an open-source 'turbocell'.

I could use some directions to more information. I am learning a bit about LEAF, the Bering distribution, v1.2. I've pulled the package, followed the directions, and I think I've got an approach working. I'm working a simple, serial-modem / single network (ppp0 eth0) setup. I wanted to install ssh as I went about it. I've followed the directions, changed the installation to use two floppies, and added the libz, sshd, and sshkey modules to syslinux.cfg and the modules disk. When I boot, I get an error message on the libz load that says Invalid gzip magic. I did a google, but could find only one dead link to a sourceforge archive. I've obviously set something up incorrectly, but don't know what it is. Would this be an erroneous version number, or am I not providing something? Possibly a corrupt file? Additionally, I'm seeing sshkey returning a format violated error message when that modules is loaded. Would this be a corrupt file? Finally, I'm getting an error message as the firewall loads its rules that says: Masquerade: Error: unable to determine the routes through eth0 I've checked the zones defined, the interfaces defined, and the masquerade definitions, and all appear to agree with the PPP setup instructions in the LEAF User documentation.

[leaf-user] Changing root to /dev/hda2
After I installed bering1.2 on /dev/hda1 of an disk-on-chip IDE, I whant to release the ram used by the root device in /dev/ram0. I copied the hole root into /dev/hda2 and made a new initrd2.lrp where I added pertinent fs and included some code in linuxrc to mount the new root. Then I added an option in syslinux.cfg where root=/dev/hda2 ant intird=initrd2.lrp. Unfortunatly init complains: USAGE: init 0123456SsQqAaBbCcUu cannot open root device hda2 or 03:02 Please append correct root= boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:02 I put a sh -i in linuxrc just befor exec /sbin/init and found aparently all OK. I got from mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root.old on /initrd type minix (rw) /dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw) /proc on /proc type proc (rw) tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw) tmpfs on /var/log type tmpfs (rw) I also check /proc/cmdline where root=/dev/hda2 Is there any way to install to put the root in /dev/hda2 and free up the ram used normaly by /dev/ram0 ? Any help how to correct things so that /sbin/init doesn't complains ? I doesn't understand why init is complaining about mounting root if it is allready mounted and working ?

[leaf-user] No swapon in Busybox
Is it possible to have the latest BUSYBOX that allows swapon for bering 1.2 ? Or is there changes in the kernel needed to allow swap not yet compiled in the bering 1.2 kernel versaion ?

[leaf-user] Improving wireless link
I've built an IPSec VPN tunnel over a point-point wireless link using a couple of D-Link DWL-900AP+ boxes and some spare ports on a couple of installed LEAF boxes. My problem is I'm seeing *LOTS* of packet loss, duplicate packets, mangled packets (especially longer packets typical of downloads and web browsing), and other nastiness making performance across the wireless link virtually unusable, despite a fair amount of bandwidth. It seems to be fairly well known that TCP doesn't handle the bursty packet loss typical of wireless networks very well, having instead been designed for packet loss typical for congested wired networks (where partly garbled packets are quite rare). I have seen a few proposed mechanisms that operate at layer 3, monitoring the TCP traffic, and fiddling with the TCP flow to improve TCP performance (by doing things like requesting re-transmissions of packets that look like they got dropped by the wireless link). Now for my question: Does anyone know of a linux implementation of anything like the above I could possibly get running on a LEAF box? Since I'm tunneling all traffic through a leaf box on each end, it seems like I could implement something to transparently deal with the lossy wireless hop, but since I'm kind of new to the whole wireless thing, I'm not sure what software I'm looking for, or if it even exists. Of course I'm also looking at what options I have for increasing the fundamental reliability of the wireless link as well, but I'd still like to find something that can tweak TCP operation for running over wireless.

[leaf-user] Re: Re: Lost of port forwarding with Bering/Shorewall...
Hi! I was wondering if there is any known issues in Bering (V1.1) and/or the Shorewall that came with (1.3.?) that might cause it to temporarily stop forwarding a port... Not that I am aware of. )-; Insufficient memory can cause packets to be dropped. I started out (long before Bering) with an 8MB 486 with a ppp dialup, and it used to stop responding to console input occasionally as well as not accepting new connections, and would unfreeze after awhile. I correlated the freezes I have a Pentium 133 with 40 megs of memory... The ram disks are at their default size (not sure what it it) and he packages are loaded off a write-protected SCSI hard drive. with heavy traffic. (I also recommend at least 16MB now.) Some gaming applications create many udp connections that exacerbate the memory problems by filling memory up with connection tracking data even when you think you have enough. I could still access the other server so I'm not quite sure what the problem was... Maybe it was some sort of hardware failure but there was something which looked kinda weird in that server log... It would appear that for some reason sshd had tried to restart itself but for some reason could bind itself to the interface correctly... That made me suspect that the machine could have been owned but it's not generally accessible to the Internet, the thing has a very strict ACL on the ports that are forwarded to it... Also note that tmpfs and kernel buffer memory may be in competition for the same RAM in small memory configurations. I hope that with 40 megs that can't really happen... On an unrelated but similar topic, coming from the inside now with Bering, dnscache performs poorly when the upstream pipe is clogged, leading to host not found errors when surfing the web. If I wait long enough before refreshing the browser, dnscache will eventually complete the lookup, and the browser will (slowly) get the web page. In this case memory is okay but available bandwidth is low leading to timeouts. I wish I could help you here but I run Bind/named... )-; Thanks!

In the extreme, you will have to go to a proprietry fix, viz turbocell, or replace the A/Ps with something a little more tolerant of distance. 802.11 was never intended to travel great distances. Indeed it was part of the 802.11 specification to actually prevent (ha ha) this from happening - the reason for the proprietry RF connectors. In summary, many standard 802.11 wireless cards will do great distances without getting flaky, but I have heard that the dlink gear is not of that category. Other cards such the Orinoco PC-cards combined with turbocell work very well indeed at distances up to 20km, and provide true data rates in the order of 9MBit/sec (I am told). I don't like the idea of proprietry *anything*, and I wish there was an open-source 'turbocell'. Hmm...I hadn't been aware of the distance issue, but I can see where it could potentially be a problem. I doubt, however, that this is much of a problem in my instance. While it is a point-point link, the distance is about 1/2 a block (maybe 400-500 feet, or about 130m). If anything, I think my main issue is multi-path, other 2.4 GHz transmitters nearby, or some other environmental issue. I'm still trying to get access to a spectrum analyzer to do a proper site survey. In answer to your question, I do not think there is a device you can put on the ends of a leaky hose - to make the hose not leak. The hose will still leak, but packet loss in conventional TCP networking signals network congestion, and triggers exponential backoff. I have bandwidth to spare over the wireless link, and am looking for something that makes the link-layer TCP aware (or puts a TCP aware wrapper around the link, since I don't have direct access to the wireless firmware), as discussed in literature for improving TCP performance over wireless networks...something like the LL-TCP-Aware or LL-SMART-TCP-Aware link protocols in: http://www.stanford.edu/~amaaron/ee359/ee359_tcpproj.pdf I just don't know if anyone's written anything like this for linux that I can try to use... -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
