[leaf-user] Generator and parser
Hi, Has anyone come across / used a XHTML Parser generator tool in Opensource community developed in C ? Do Kindly post the link / tool name . I saw Amaya but it is big and will consume time to get just the XHTML Parser / Generator from it. 1) GENX is XML Parser and No XHTML Parser / Generator tool developed using GENX by GENX till now. 2) EXPAT doesnt provide a opensource XHTML Parser / Generator till today. 3) X-Smiles is simple and good but Java Based . 4) LibXml is also a library and no XHTML parser / Generator Tool by them in opensource till today. Has Someone got a simple setup with just the XHTML Parser and Generator alone developed in C available in OpenSource or A tool Develped Using the above library tools ? Kindly let me know And Do Give me your link. Thanks & Regards, karthik bala guru __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

RE: [leaf-user] Bering 1.2 Dnscache: Querylog versus Forward Only
Erich, Thanks very much! The cr.yp.to site is a gold mine. Thanks for saving me (apparently) from Bind! After perusing the site and reading some of the scripts on Bering, I set /etc/dnscache/env/QUERYLOG to YES, expecting to find /var/log/dnscache containign logs of DNS queries. But no such directory was created, although the script /etc/init.d/dnscache seems to do that. Maybe a bug somewhere?

[leaf-user] Please be kind to the Newbie!!
Hi everyone, I was trying to setup a very simple firewall and then build up from there. I am using Bering uClibc 2.1.2 my setup is a cable modem with a static IP (I actually have 5 ip's but i'm trying to keep it simple to start) going to the firewall in the first nic port, then from the firewall's second nic port to a switch (because i don't own a crossover cable), then to a laptop. I have been messing around with Network configurations: interfaces file. From step 1 I have tried to setup option 1.2 but i don't understand the settings completely since they look a little different from my standard Linksys router. What do I fill in for address, broadcast, and gateway? My Isp gave me a subnet mask of 255.255.255.248 with my static ips. I used to input dns1 and dns2 in my Linksys Router, do i still have to do this? Then for step 2 I left it alone (default settings looked ok to me) for eth 1. I thought i would first try to get on the internet with the laptop but it doesn't get to the internet. Is there a simple setting I need to change to fix this? I don't even know if the nics are talking to the LEAF? How do I know which is Eth1 and Eth0? Is there a way to determine if leaf has installed the nic cards properly or at all? I didn't load any special drivers because it looked like maybe they will work if the nics are common enough. I haven't messed with anything else in the system. do i need to change some settings in shorewall in order for the laptop to access the internet? Then of course there are the laptop settings, I am running Windows XP Pro. I have given it the following fixed ip settings: ip address: 192.168.1.5 seb net mask: 255.255.255.0 default gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS1 and DNS2: the supplied info from my ISP btw, how do I change the login and password when LEAF boots up? Please be kind to the noob, I really want to learn this and I really appreciate all the detail and over-simplification you can stand to type. I know a very little about Routing, less about firewalls, and absolutely nothing about Linux. I have been sucking on the Microsoft tit forever.

There seems indeed to be something fundamentally wrong... I tried to configure a new Bering-uClib 2.2.0-beta4 on a DiskOnChip this evening, and have now almost no hair left... Besides from hanging (or simply freezing) until a timeout occurs during the boot, when backing up to the DoC I experienced several times that the umount did not return... I can see it hanging there right now in the ps output: 29389 root260 D umount /var/lib/lrpkg/mnt indefinitely! Trying to kill the umount does of course not succeed. The only solution is to reboot (reset button or power-cycle, the reboot command does not work). I have no clue at all which is to blame: the drivers, fdisk, mkfs.msdos or syslinux or other. But I do know this is very annoying! I'm not aware of the same problem in 2.1.2. Didn't try it out yet though, because I would like to get it going with 2.2.0.

Re: [leaf-user] Please be kind to the Newbie!!
First of all Ray, Thank you s much. I appreciate your help. I don't quite understand this physical description. The LEAF router's external interface needs to connect to the cable modem, either directly or through a switch. Offhand, I think a direct connection, in this instance, does NOT use a crossover cable, but a connection of a cable modem to a switch requires either a crossover cable or an "uplink" port on the switch ... but that may vary.

Using a switch or hub is better, because sometimes NIN-to-NIC connections have trouble settling on a data rate, and you have enough to worry about without adding that uncertainty. Ok, I did a poor job in explaining my setup. I think I have it setup the way you just mentioned. >From my cable modem I have a normal cat5 cable going into one of two nic cards on my >firewall. Not sure if it is eth0 or eth1 (as defined by LEAF). Then, from the second of two nic cards on my firewall I have a normal cat5 cable running to a Linksys SD208 switch. This switch automatically does crossover when needed. >From the switch, I have a normal cat5 cable running to my laptop. I would have run a >crossover cable from the firewall to the laptop but I don't have one yet. It sounds like my current setup is fine anyway. I hope that is clearer. Address = the IP address you want the external interface (the one you'll connect to the cable modem, either directly or through a switch) to listen on. For now, call it a.b.c.d. Broadcast = depends a bit on the address, since the netmask ends in .248. In practice, a.b.c.255 will usually work. For the excat value, see the parenthetical in the next item.

For example, if your address range were a.b.c.2-6, your values would be: network: a.b.c.0 gateway: a.b.c.1 broadcast: a.b.c.7 I'm actually a bit puzzled as to how you got your Linksys to work without knowing all of this part.The small routers I've set up, from D-LInk and netgear, require this info for a static-address connection. My ISP gave me 24.224.166.194 through 24.224.166.198 for the 5 static IP's My Isp gave me a subnet mask of 255.255.255.248 My Isp gave me a default gateway address of 24.224.166.193 So tell me if this looks right: address: 24.224.166.196 netmask: 255.255.255.248 broadcast: 24.224.166.255 gateway: 24.224.166.193 The only thing I'm not sure about is the broadcast entry (the 255 part). I don't htink I ever had this particular info on my Linksys router. If your LAN clients use the ISP's nameservers directly, you only need to tell the LEAF router itself to use them too; do this by adding them to /etc/resolv.conf . If the LAN clients expect to use the LEAF router as a forwarder, you'll need to configure dnscache to use them; someone else will have to explain that part, since I don't use it. I'll try the first DNS thing you mentioned. That seemed easy enough to change. Then for step 2 I left it alone (default settings looked ok to me) for eth 1.

I don't htink I ever had this particular info on my Linksys router. If you supply an address and a netmask, that should let a device compute the broadcast address. I'm not sure why Linux configurations routinely ask for it separately. In any case, the one you've set should work. A better one, consistent with your /29 (.248) network, would be 24.224.166.199.

And this is your problem. The Bering kernel internally supports only a few of the most common NIC types used in routers, and I believe the two RealTeks are NOT on the built-in list of supported ones. You'll need to add modules. For the external NIC, there is an rtl8139.o kernel module you can add. There is also an 8139too.o module. I forget which of these Bering-uClibc uses. For the internal NIC, I'm not certain ... there is not a module specific to it. I **think** the ne2k-pci module supports this one, but I'm not sure. Perhaps someone else can jump in here? So, get the modules appropriate to the kernel you are running (probably 2.4.26, from what I see on the project's Downloads list), add them to your LEAF floppy, and put their names in /etc/modules. The Installation Guide provides the details (http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/biaddrm.html). The order of the modules in this file will dictate which NIC is assigned eth0, which eth1 (first come, first served). Check what interfaces have been created with the command ip link show It will also tell you if they have been initialized (that is, assigned IP addresses). ip link show results::: 1: lo: mtu 16436 qdisc noop link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: dummy0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Since the interfaces were not created, they are not initialized, and the routing table doesn't get routes assigned ... hence the ping error above. [...] I have a new question. Does it matter if I am logged into the firewall (LEAF Configuation Menu on the screen) or not logged in (Firewall# prompt on the screen) for the firewall to operate properlly when I have all the settings correct? No. Do I have to reboot after I make and backup system changes for them to be in effect? No. --- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.

I have used maybe variants of rtl chips both onboard and pci. and unless it's old i'v found that the 8139too.o module workes. so try that first. also keep in mind that the 8139too.o module depends on the crc32.0 and mii.o module so copy over those too. and remember to uncomment them in the modules config > So, get the modules appropriate to the kernel you are running (probably > 2.4.26, from what I see on the project's Downloads list), add them to your > LEAF floppy, and put their names in /etc/modules.
