You can try http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/khadley/ppp.html
there is right now no direct link on my web pages to it cause I need some
testers
Let me know if it works for you

Subject: [Leaf-user] dialup with leaf - how?


 I am sure this question is so obvious that I can't see the answer
 right in front of my nose! I am a happy user of Dachstein with dhcp
 DSL, but I have a friend who wants to use Dachstein with dialup.

 What is needed to use leaf (e.g. Dachstein) with ppp dialup? ppp.lrp?
 pppd.lrp? Can Kenneth Hadley's instructions for pppoe (which support
 pppoe over ethernet) be modified for dialup? I have seached the mail
 archives and a few of the leaf sites and haven't quite figure this
 out.

 I'm guessing this is very simple once one knows the answer :-)

 That is exactly what he bought.  It too noisy for me - the fans scream.
 I also would prefer a better internal nic -  8139 based and of course it
 has only one PCI slot. But at 700 MHz, it should be able to handle his
home
 based PPPoE connection.  Talk about overkill.

Massive overkill alright...

  When LEAF leaves the single floppy behind, the entire project target
  changes and all the indications point to the change happening in the
  next 6 months or so. It seems that the primary developers are trying to
  keep the original target (floppy), and for that I commend them, it
  would be easy to simply abandon this target and move on to other ones.
  I for one still use the single floppy release as my primary home
  firewall. I have installed the DCD cd release in several different
  configurations including a harddrive, a flash drive, and a stand-alone
  cdrom, but in all honesty the floppy version stills does anything I
  need it to at home and it still intrigues me how well put together it
  is.

 Well, I *have* effectevly abandoned the 1440 floppy format (for anything
 other than the config floppy for a CD-ROM install), but I really want to
 keep a workable firewall running on a 1680K floppy.  Note the new
Dachstein
 releases are actually *SMALLER* than the previous EigerStein releases,
while
 supporting more features!

its a stagnate dinosaur whose time for retirement has long been late,

live on much longer than it should.
If the advancement of the various projects in LEAF means goodbye to the
floppy, then so be it.

I look forward to all further improvements in all the various LEAF projects.

 I like to have the floppy configuration avaiable.  While it is 'old'
technology, there remain many who cannot afford flash w/ide adaptors, etc.
Since I have inheritted several older systems, it costs me little to nothing
to set one up for someone.  And while one or two have CD Rom drives, all
have floppy drives.

 If they had to buy a flash or DOC, then they might as well buy a Linksys.
With the LEAF floppy systems, I have found that half the folks get more
interested in networking and Linux, which I regard as a plus.

 -sp
 $0.02

I totally understand and agree with most of what you have said, but when I
look at new CDROM drives going for the same price tag of a new 1.44MB Floppy
Drive it seams a more than a little funny that a old floppy drive is a more
important media target for a project than something that is a lot more
reliable and allows the project to do so much more.

Of course this is just my .02 cents worth...and about a $1.98 short of
something that makes sense ;-)

 This, combined with IPFILTER_SWITCH=none should get you a basic router...

Thanks Charles!

So if I understand it correctly:
IPFWDING_KERNEL=YES
IPFILTER_SWITCH=none
sets your scripts to full routing of all traffic
and
IPFWDING_KERNEL=FILTER_ON
IPFILTER_SWITCH=router
sets your scripts to routing with filtering

Is this correct?

 I am so far behind the curve that I don't know where to start. 8-}   I
have
 a Dachstein floppy firewall on my DSL (Speakeasy static IP) at my office,
 and have _that_one_ mostly figured out.

 I've been futzing with 1.02 floppy pppoe dachstein for my home Verizon DSL
 connection for a couple weeks off  on in my spare time, with little
 success. I am afraid that I do not know enuf to ask intelligent questions,
 so I will describe a bit of my setup and se what y'all have to point me
to.
 (Refs to docs are fine- I am trying to educate myself so I can set this up
 for a non-profit client of mine, so I _do_ need to actually know what I am
 doing, sooner or later! 8-))

 The DSL works fine from my Win98 box. That connection uses WinPoET; its
 documentation is not terribly informative.
 The messages generated by the PPPoE dachstein are different enuf from the
 one at the office that I am not sure how to interpret them. I have taken
 the Verizon-supplied cable from the Win98 box and tried it in both NICs
 (with reboots).

 In messages, this appears
 Bringing up adsl link:
 .registered device ppp0
 pppoe uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)
 ..TIMED OUT
 I also get the request to add a subnet for eth1 (0.0.0.0) but I thought
 that might actually be a driver issue, based on what I saw in past posts
on
 this list (my local archives go back to June 09, 2001).
 The firewall box is a P133 and I bought 2 Linksys NICs for this. Dumb
 question: I don't have to have TWO tuplip.o drivers do I??

 When it is up, there's this:
 #adsl-start
 ..TIMED OUT
 #adsl-status
 Link is down -- couldn't find interface corresponding to pid 3473

 OK- now tell me what I _really_ need to tell ya!  8-))

[Leaf-user] Dachstein-CD v1.0.2 as a router only (no firewall)

2002-01-12 Thread Kenneth Hadley

If having some limited success in getting Dachstein 1.02 to run as just a
router between to private networks, 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.2.0, with
192.168.2.0 being a expansion to the 192.168.1.0 network which is just about
full. In terms of machines on either network being able to see the other
(aka 192.168.1.195 being able to ping 192.168.2.195 and vice versa) I've had
no problems, but some protocols are having problems (such as HP JetDirect)
with a good example being a Network file server on 192.168.1.0 acting as a
print queue server trying to send print jobs to a HP JetDirect printer on
the 192.168.2.0 network and while basic information (such as a error) is
able to be received back by the Network file server other information sent
by JetDirect on ports 1782 and 161.
Currently my guess is that the router is blocking such traffic when I saw
this message in my logs on Dachstein machine:
Packet log: input REJECT eth1 PROTO=17 192.168.1.138:1705 192.168.2.2:161
L=68 S=0x00 I=44714 F=0x T=128 (#3)

Packet log: input REJECT eth1 PROTO=17 192.168.1.138:1705 192.168.2.2:161

Packet log: input REJECT eth1 PROTO=17 192.168.1.138:1705 192.168.2.2:161
L=68 S=0x00 I=46042 F=0x T=128 (#3)
With 192.168.1.138 being my server and 192.168.2.2 being my printer

Also, just as experiment to find out if I even have my network setup
correctly I did a quick and dirty test using I think the same
configuration with LRP 2.9.8 that I used with Dachstein (as best I could
translate the various options) and had no problems access devices on
192.168.2.0 from 192.168.1.0 (which includes JetDirect, which worked fine),
but I would much prefer to use Dachstein than a old version of LRP.

Some of the options on my Dachstein box:

IPFWDING_KERNEL=FILTER_ON
IPALWAYSDEFRAG_KERNEL=NO

IF_AUTO=eth0 eth1
IF_LIST=$IF_AUTO

eth0_IPADDR=192.168.2.1
eth0_MASKLEN=24
eth0_BROADCAST=+

eth1_IPADDR=192.168.1.11
eth1_MASKLEN=24
eth1_BROADCAST=+
eth1_DEFAULT_GW=192.168.1.1

IPFILTER_SWITCH=router
EXTERN_IF=eth0
EXTERN_DHCP=NO
EXTERN_DYNADDR=NO

INTERN_IF=eth1
INTERN_NET=192.168.1.0/24
INTERN_IP=192.168.1.11
MASQ_SWITCH=NO



Does anyone have any thoughts on what I might have configured wrong?

Thanks!

Re: [Leaf-user] ppp0 not loading in Dachstein

sure as heck is the problem, for some reason the ppp.o file isnt being

1) make sure that this to your  /etc/network.conf: (and the MUST be in the
order you see below
# Serial Support
slhc
ppp
ppp_deflate
bsd_comp
2) make sure slhc.o, ppp.o, ppp_deflate.o, and bsd_comp.o are located in
/lib/modules/

If both the above statements are true OR false then redownload and try
making a new diskete from the image file, you may have downloaded a bad copy
earlier
or
edit syslinux.cfg on the floppy itself and the variable ramdisk_size=6144 to
ramdisk_size=8192

Re: [Leaf-user] Dachstein 1.0.2 with PPPoE

2001-12-17 Thread Kenneth Hadley

If memory serves me (which is very rarely) a 486dlc chip was made by IBM and
it was well known during the early 90's (when I got into PC repair) that
both the Cyrix and IBM clone 486's where not quiet as cloned as IBM/Cyrix
wanted you to believe (same thing as today with the AMD vs. Intel war...but
it was a IBM vs. Cyrix vs. AMD vs. Intel war at the time)
I think Charles is using the DachStein-Small kernel for the floppy image and
in which case its compiled for 486 without FPU compiled into the kernel
(which I think a 486DLC had no FPU).
If you want to compile a kernel that might work vist Charles's site
(http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/cstein/files/kernels/Dachstein-small/)
and give adding FPU to the kernel a shot or even droping the kernel into 386
w/FPU might help.
Or just upgrade to a low end pentium...since a 486 WILL lag after a 1mbit of
DSL traffic ( I upgraded at home from a AMD586-133 to a Intel P200MMX
(overkill but it was just collecting dust) and it shocked me how quicker my
downloads became)

Re: [Leaf-user] Using pppoe

2001-12-09 Thread Kenneth Hadley

Really depends on your ISP on how long your alowed to keep a leased IP.
For example my ISP (Pacific Bell, Monterey PacBell district, California)
doesnt change my IP address unless I reboot my router and even then I have a
50-50 chance of receiving the same IP address as before, but I know of other
ISP's (mostly European it seams) forceably change your IP address every few
hours (I had the same IP once for 3 months and the only reason it changed
was because the entire house lost power).
Dachstein and EigerSteinBETA2 PPPoE v.0.4 both support non-demand dial PPPoE
so you should be able to keep a fairly static IP address, providing you dont
have a over agressive ISP.

 hard code it.

 I now have to use ADSL access using PPPoE and dynamic

 Is there the equivalent of a lease.  Is there a trick
 I can use to keep the address (e.g. ping some address

Subject: [Leaf-user] Dachstein features: Floppy vs CD


 I'm hoping to get time in the near future to make a release version of the
 floppy-based Dachstein firewall.  I am already planning on porting some of
 the CD features (like support for pkgpath.cfg and lrpkg.cfg files) to the
 floppy version, but I'm also strongly considering migrating the new backup
 scripts to the floppy version as well.

 While the support for partial backups is not nearly so critical when
running
 from floppy as when running from CD, it might be a useful feature in some
 situations, and the new backup scripts support all features of the
previous
 scripts, so no functionality is lost.  The big advantage is consistency
 across the floppy and CD release, making it easier to develop and
maintain.
 The main drawback is the potential for the new scripts to be confusing to
a
 new user, and the fact that much existing documentation will not properly
 reflect the new backup mechanisms.

I have used LRP since 2.9.4 was released, so my opinion are of someone who
(thinks he) knows what he is talking about.
Untill LEAF develops a GUI interface (not likely) I would hazard to guess
that to ANY new user LEAF will seam a bit confusing.
My opinion, merge the floppy and CD scripts together, since this would seam
to alow new versions of Dachstein (and any future versions) to be relased as
a media neatural system (there is more than one persion on this list that
uses Flash, CDROM, diskette, LS-120, ZIP, and Hard Disk). This also reduces
version support since tech support would based on Dachstein v.x.x.x instead
of Dachstein v.x.x.x (Media).

 I'd like to hear from anyone who's used a recent Dachstein CD release and
a
 previous floppy release.  I'm specifically interested in how confusing (or
 intuitive) you found the backup routines, and any thoughts or concerns you
 might have about making the CD backup routines the 'standard issue' for
all
 flavors of Dachstein.

Changing the destination on Dachstein CD through me for a loop at first
(untill I relized it was trying to backup to a CD) since I was used to
Eigerstein2BETA, but beyond that, I would like to just see some
documentation (the bane of Open Source Projects) since im still fuzzy about
the backup options.

Re: [Leaf-user] Hardware requirements ;-)

2001-10-14 Thread Kenneth Hadley

Unfourtunatly from my tests a 486DX4-100 is the minium speed CPU needed for
PPPoE if your bandwidth is the standard 1.5mbit down/ 128kbit up and even
with this CPU you will see your bandwidth go down the toilet with more
clients behind the LEAF box. Obviously if you have a slower line then you
dont need that kind of power, say a 486sx25 if you have a 768k down/??k up.
The newer Roaring Penguin PPPoE clients might be less CPU intensive but
unfourtunatly you need Glibc 2.2 to compile it, and ive found no way around
this (Hint: If someone can prove me wrong I would be most gratefull) which
has kinda halted images from me till Dachstein is released.

 Yes there is a limit on how slow of a processor one can use with an LRP.
  I am using Eigerstien2beta pppoe beta v.0.4 from Kenneth Hadley on a
 386 DX board running a Cyrix 486 DLC 40 mhz chip and the PPPoE is
 limited to about 500kbps down load.  The speed limit has to do with the
 way pppoe sends the packets, the processor must recombine them.  Also
 according to Ken Hadley on anything less than a 486 DX4 100mhz you will
 notice a speed dive with PPPoE.

 Once at home I decided to put my money where my mouth was and
 *downgraded* my 486 DX2-80 with a 386 SX-33!  I had to (of course)
 replace the kernel on my ISDN Eigerstien with a non-FPU example, but
 it all works a treat!  What I do notice is that during start-up the
 unpacking of the Linux Kernel and initial ram disk images take an
 *age*!
 
 
 I found that there is a lower limit... the performance of a 386-33
 on a pppoe setup was significantly lower than no router.  However, for
 static routing it should be okay, and almost any true 486 should keep up

Re: [Leaf-user] Eigerstein/Netmeeting

2001-10-02 Thread Kenneth Hadley

Well the module on my site does say that it will work on kernel 2.2.16 so it
should work fine
I do suggest you look at the home website for the module (
http://www.coritel.it/coritel/ip/sofia/nat/nat2/nat2.htm ) to learn what
ports you need to forward for h.323

 Hi,

 I'm running Eigerstein (kernel version 2.2.16) and want to get
 Netmeeting going.
 I've rummaged through the archives and they point to a file called
 ip_masq_h3231.o
 but:

 1.) George Toft's site (http://www.georgetoft.com/linux/) says  It
 works, however,
 only with 2.0 kernels

 2.) Keith Hadleys's site
 (http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/khadley/packages.html) says
 Unless otherwise specified all modules are compiled to Linux Kernel
 2.2.16...
 H.323 Masq Module ( Home Site ) v.2.2.0

 So where do I find one for 2.2.16 or should I just try them?  Or is
 there something
 better to use than Netmeeting (which I can convince my brother-in-law to
 use?  :-)

 Thanks,
 /Ed

causes a 486 computer to bog down and not be able to handle the DSL
connection with speeds over 500k.

 How have you been monitoring the CPU usage? With top or something else?

 I have been running your pppoe-image now for a couple of weeks, my
connection
 is rated 1.5M/512k, but I have been able to get only something like
800k/400k
 out of it.

 Anyway, my LRP-machine is 486DX2-66 with 32M and it does not seem to be
having
 any problems with that kind of traffic. But then, without means to
actually
 measure the CPU load I would not probably knew even if it was having
problems...

 Hi, I'm putting together a linux router and got your image up and running
 (thanks), but would like to use some of the features in the new EigerStein
 Pre/release.

Not at the moment, since I'm waiting for a final release, but if that doesnt
happen by the end of next month then I will release a image based on the
most recent Pre-release

 Your disk throws an error with pppoe saying that inetd is out of date. The
 new release seems to erase pppoe.lrp after this error.

???
Ive never seen this error, are you trying to use rp-pppoe v.3.0?

 I'm still working out merging your pppoe into this new release, but was
 wondering if you had any plans for compiling a RP-pppoe 3.0 based package?

yes, it would be part of the next image I will release

 Also, do you have a list of what other changes from the standard
EigerStein
 distribution (if any) you made?

The Image is based on EigerStein2BETA, and as for the changes to tell you
the truth ive completly forgotton, but if you like I could find out.

 Thanks for your help,
 -Liam


No prob,

-Kenneth Hadley
