[leaf-user] RE: Some questions regarding LEAF on WRAP box

2005-07-12 Thread M Lu
With all help I got from the list members, I am now running the latest and 
greatest Bering-U on my WRAP box. Thank you all.


The next step would be adding wireless card and make it into the access 
point. I look around and I see the a/b/g 5004 MP Atheros mPCI CM9 bundled 
with a pigtail and antenna on netgate site is good, and Erich mentioned that 
it will work with madwifi drivers. The only thing is that Bering-U official 
release does not have madwifi drivers and I need to compile them myself -:(


Is there any plan to include them into the release in the future? Are there 
any other recommended mPCI to be used with WRAP box?



I also have another question. Yesterday, I needed to add the ntpdate.lrp 
package. After vi-ing leaf.cfg and save it, I reboot the box and it does not 
boot because the file is corrupted. The content became something like this


Ã.Ãs<86><90>Ã?ÃS®-VO««Ý¢´%puÂ¥&`F...
..

What could cause this corruption? What can be done to avoid that? I used 
64-M LEXAR card which came together with the box.



Thanks.

[leaf-user] multiple static ip address router/firewall

2005-07-12 Thread Andrew Nance
Hi group,
I have been using Bering uClibc for a couple of years now.  It has been rock
solid and great.  My thanks go out to everyone.
I currently use my leaf box with 5 static ip's without any major problems.

But my question to you guys and gals is do you know of an over the counter
firewall/router (like Linksys, D-Link, or Netgear) that can route multiple
public static IP's for a single cable or dsl connection?
If there are no "cheaper" solutions, what would an entry level cisco model
be? 
How would these solutions compare price wise to a WRAP running uClibc?


Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Yes, funny, the same thing happened to me some time ago. For unknown 
reasons I had a line of garbage in leaf.cfg. It feels like IDE I/O is 
shaky with CF's. Maybe one should have a look at hdparams. Else it might 
be possible that I did not correctly unmount the CF before rebooting and 
so the system had no chance to flush the buffers correctly and this 
might be lethal when writing directly to the CF.

It's easy to destroy CF cards this way.  I went through two on my routers
before understanding that you need to unmount the card ASAP.

[leaf-user] lm_sensors for Bering uClibc - Lex Neo CV863A from Hacom

2005-07-12 Thread Richard Amerman
I have two new Lex Neo CV863A Boxes from Hacom that I'm setting up with
Bering uClibc.

These boxes include:

2 X PCMCIA slots
4 X 10/100 Nics
CF slot
1Ghz CPU
256MB DDR RAM
4 X USB

I have a Lexar 512MB card in each of these and, with only a half day of
banging my head, got LEAF set up on the CF card. I used the uClibc CD
ISO to do the work, including copying the entire contents of the CD as
my install once I had the card bootable.

It is going great, though duplicating the card will be a pain, wish
there was a tool to image a CF card easily in windows.

One thing I would very much like to do is monitor the health of these
boxes using something like lm_sensors. The only thing I have found about
this are two uClibc LEAF CVS entries regarding lmsensors.

Does anyone have any information on this?

Any other LexNeo LEAF users out there with info to share on their
experiences?

Thanks!

Richard Amerman

Re: [leaf-user] RE: Some questions regarding LEAF on WRAP box

2005-07-12 Thread M Lu

Thanks Peter,

That's a good thing to remember. I cannot remember if I did umount or not 
but likely not. My OpenVPN did not run because of the time on WRAP (1999 or 
so) and VPN certificate are exclusive. Once time synced, it is running 
again. So I needed to test the reboot.


Cheers.
