[leaf-user] Bering on an IDE Hard drive

2003-11-29 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Can anyone help??

I have being trying to get a (fully working) Bering sytem from floppy to an
IDE hard drive. I have based my efforts on Charles Steinkuehler's How-to for
Dachstein. All goes well (Linux boots ok) until LINUXRC tries to load the
packages. Although syslinux.cfg points to /dev/hda1 for both boot and
packages, LINUXRC tries to open the floppy, fails and kills init
(successfully, the PC is then completely dead). with a Bering floppy in the
drive it still fails after not finding the modules.

Last message before rigor-mortis is:

LINUXRC: Bering - Initrd - V1.2
end_request; I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy) sector 0
end_request; I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy) sector 0
end_request; I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy) sector 0
LINUXRC: Could not mount the boot device. Can't install packages.
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!

Would appreciate if anyone else has a similar experience, or even better - a
fix.

[leaf-user] Bering on an IDE Hard Drive

2003-11-30 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Many thanks to all for the help, it now works fine. Was a corrupt
modules.lrp, now fixed. Charles Steinkuehler's How-to for IDE works fine for
Bering (just a small syntax difference, but that's obvious). Now for loac
syslogging :-)

[leaf-user] Ezipudate with Bering

2003-12-12 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Hallo LEAF World!

I'm running Bering (quite stable now) but am having trouble with ezipupdate.
The package on Jacques Nilos Page just causes a crash in the terminal
programs (both serial & local tty). The firewall itself is still running
underneath but no control possible. Does anyone know of version or
dependancy problems ?? Is the boot sequence (in lrpkg.cfg) important (I have
it almost last in the list) ?

Would appreciate any comments.

[leaf-user] Static route

2003-12-12 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Hallo LEAF World !

Can someone tell me where I should put a static route so that it survives a
reboot ?
I have a subnet in the internal network - all works fine with Shorewall &
masquerading but I am not familiar enough with this Linux to know the best
place to put my "route add..." staement.

Thanks,

[leaf-user] uClibc2 Bering

2003-12-21 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Hello LEAF World,

I have just made the transition from Bering 1.2 to the new uClibc release.

So far I have got it all working, using only the new uClibc packages except
that when I try to use the bash shell (packages ncurses.lrp and bash.lrp),
then ezipudate and dnscache don't work any more.

errors at boot time are :

/etc/rc2.d/S45dnscache: line 14: UID: readonly variable

Commenting out line 14 in /etc/init.d/dnscache (UID=1001) works fine,
dnscache & ezipupdate are now working together with the bash shell.

[leaf-user] Static DNS entry

2003-12-22 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Does anyone know a simple way to set a couple of static dns entries on my
LEAF Bering (uClib) box?
I'm running DNSCACHE for resolving Internet names and have an MS Win2000
Domain controller as internal DNS (it needs it's own dynamic DNS for active
directory).
All this works just fine until I power down the complete Windows network
(which I do every evening). When I want a quick connection from my laptop or
a visitor's laptop I don't have internal DNS and can't acces my LEAF box by
name (unless I power my MS domain up).
I don't want to put a host file on visitor's machines and adding a dns
server to my LEAF box will disturb CACHEDNS.
Any ideas ?

[leaf-user] Bash & Bering uClibc

2003-12-22 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Hello LEAF World!

My earlier mail was too hasty, another problem has emerged when using bash.
Backup of any or all package (backup... c... L...)results in each package
reporting a line number and "terminated ticker".
A reboot produces simply a kernel panic and everything is completely dead.
Restoring my carefully saved ghost backup, removing ncurses and bash fixes
this.
Any ideas anyone?

Re: [leaf-user] Static DNS entry

2003-12-23 Thread Robert & Sabine von Knobloch
Richard,
first, thanks for replying.
To explain:
I have a system that I like to make completely heterogeneous. This system is
just for fun, (which is why it's much more complicated than necessary), but
also serves my wife's office requirements (Vet Practice).
It is as follows:
(All netmasks 24-Bit)
1 Win2K Domain controller office1.praxis 192.168.0.1
2 Win2k as router office2.praxis 192.168.10 + 10.1.1.0 network segment (2
NICs)
3 LEAF-Bering brandmauer.praxis 192.168.0.254
4 Several clients in both networks (movable clients, laptops etc.)

Both Win2K machines have DHCP with small range of leases (the router serves
DHCP in both networks), as does the LEAF box
DNS is primarily on the Domain Controller as Win Active Directory needs it.
For the Internet, dnscache is used on the LEAF box (all hosts receive both
DNS servers per DHCP).
It's just irritating that when only the LEAF box is running, I can't acces
it by FQDN. I could put a hosts file on all clients but this is messy.
A zone transfer from Win has been suggested, but dnscache doesn't support
this either.
I really want a proper DNS server on leaf, but it must work with dnscache
together and on the same address, which seems not possible.

I don't see how these entries would solve the problem you describe
below. They would help the LEAF box resolve host names, but wouldn't
help other hosts resolve the name of your LEAF box. Part of the source
of my confusion (and, I suspect, yours) is that you haven't told us how
IPs are assigned on your network; I suspect the Win2000 domain server
provides DHCP services. If so, how will laptops attached to the network
obtain IPs and other network settings when the DHCP server is off-line?

Sort of. dnscache and tinydns are separate parts of the djbdns suite.

> Will this really disturb?
As Erich's question implies, you can run both tinydns and dnscache on a
single host by binding each to a different ip. On a typical LEAF box,
tinydns is bound to 127.0.0.1 and dnscache is bound to the IP of the
box's internal interface (192.168.1.254 for example).

[leaf-user] Bering uClibc

2003-12-23 Thread Robert &amp; Sabine von Knobloch
Hello LEAF World!

I seem (hope not) to have found a problem with HTTP transfer in the uClibc
release 2 of Bering.
All has been working on Bering 1.2, so I decided to "upgrade" to uClibc.
At first all seemed OK, then my wife wanted to access her on-line bank
account.

Although this starts with a completely normal, public HTTP (NOT HTTPS) web
page(http://www.spk-vs.de), no browser can display it (MSIE, Opera, Mozilla
tested) no message is displayed, the browser just sits for ever trying to
get the page.

OK, switch back to Bering 1.2 with he same firewall rules and it all works
fine.
I have then (to avoid misconfiguration) set up a uClibc floppy disk (the
download) and just configured my interaces (no extras, as delivered
shorewall etc). Same result - uClibc version doesn't let this page be
displayed.

Sooo..
TCPDUMP on the PPPoE interface, Ethereal on the network and let's analyse.
uClibc:
After the 3-way handshake, the Browser does a GET, the Web page answers with
TCP ACK and that's it - no further action.

With Bering 1.2 the next action is a HTTP OK and the dialogue continues.

I have capture files for both interfaces on both versions of LEAF, but
cannot see what is going wrong. All sequence numbers seem correct. The FW
doesn't seem to dropping any packets but it just doesn't work on uClibc.

Anyone got any ideas ?

Robert von Knobloch.

Thanks Martin,

that fixed it. I had overlooked adding this entry
What is unusual is that the exteral & internal tcpdump traces don't show any
problems. I had expected a checksum error or similar problem on one or more
packets, but that did not occur.

Since you mention pppoe - might it be that your Bering uClibc setup is
missing the CLAMPMSS=Yes line in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf?

Just an idea, since that's what happened to me when I set up my first
2.0 box from scratch - and it may just be "bad luck" that the online
banking site is the first one to exhibit the problem.

Martin

P.S. I'll be out of town over Christmas - so I won't be able to respond
to any followup questions for a few days.

[leaf-user] Weblet & Logs - Bering

2003-12-31 Thread Robert &amp; Sabine von Knobloch
Hallo Leaf World !

First a happy new year to all.

Then:

1.

Is some config in the Weblet needed to allow hosts on internal subnets to
access the http daemon ?

I have: firewall: 192.168.0.254 -> router - 192.168.0.10/24 <-> 10.1.1.10/24
<- 10.1.1.100 (Host1)
All routing and firewalling is OK with my subnets entered as interfaces,
routes and in Shorewall (can ping, ftp etc. all machines, also DNS is fine),
but Host1 cannot access the firewall weblet (can ping the firewall, firewall
can ping the host). In the weblet config file there is an entry (commented
out) to restrict the hosts that can use weblet, I assume that when it's
commented out all host should get access. Similarly, hosts on my WiFi
network (also connected to the same router on Subnet 172.16.0.0/24 acn reach
all other machines, but not the weblet.
Can any one help ?

2.
Has anyone tried moving logging (and, therefore weblet and other apps.
access to the logs) to a hrd drive ?? 'm thinking about it to preserve logs
under a reboot (happens often as I can't seem to stop configuring new
features :-))

3.
Sorry KP, I did not reply to your help regarding IPSEC, but, thanks to your
comments, I am now much farther (I believe my gateway is OK - all logs look
good) and am working on a Windows XP road warrior client.

Thanks Kory,

Both settings were OK , but you forced me to double-check and I noticed thre
was no Carriage return on the subnet declaration in /etc/hosts.allow. I
rthen remembered reading that this is a problem.
No weblet problem now.
The cron solution had also occurred to me, I wanted to see how others saw
it, perhaps its the safest solution.

Happy new year,

Yes. You must mane the proper adjustments to /etc/hosts.allow and edit the
CLIENT_ADDRS="192.168.1." line in /etc/sh-httpd.conf.

I have not tried it but from looking at the ulogd config options in lrcfg it
appears that it would be configurable by editing /etc/ulogd.conf.
Alternatively just run a cron job to copy or email them to a different
location periodically.

[leaf-user] IKE - IPSEC VPN with XP Client

2004-01-02 Thread Robert &amp; Sabine von Knobloch
Hallo LEAF World!

Season's greeting to all LEAF users & developers.

I'm trying to get a Roadwarrior VPN system running with my lEAF uClibc2.0
Box.

I'm following the Freeswan document from Nate Carlson, which uses the
IPSEC.EXE utility from Marcus Müller (e.bootis VPN).

All daemons well-fed, reporting no errors. (IPSEC, PLUTO, WHACK, KLIPS
etc.).

So far I have all certificates generated (from openssl CA on the LEAF box)
and installed.

I make a dial-up modem connection from XP and ping my firewall dyndns
address firewall is on flat-rate ADSL).

Using TCPDUMP on the LEAF Box ppp0 interface (MS boxes can't capture WAN
connections under Ethereal sadly), I see 7 ISAKMP packets exchanged.

1. Proposal from XP
2. Proposal from LEAF
3. Key & nonce exchange from XP
4. Key & nonce excahnge + certificate request from LEAF
5. Informational packet (56 Byres encrypted) from XP
6. Repeat of 4
7. Repeat of 4

The LEAF auth.log shows the problem, but I can't see a solution. it seems
clearly to lie with the XP box configuration.

LEAF auth.log (brandmauer is the name of the LEAF box):
===
Jan 2 11:24:53 brandmauer pluto[16478]: packet from 213.6.55.126:500:
ignoring Vendor ID payload [MS NT5 ISAKMPOAKLEY 0003]
Jan 2 11:24:53 brandmauer pluto[16478]: "roadwarrior-net"[2] 213.6.55.126
#2: responding to Main Mode from unknown peer 213.6.55.126
Jan 2 11:24:54 brandmauer pluto[16478]: "roadwarrior-net"[2] 213.6.55.126
#2: encrypted Informational Exchange message is invalid because it is for
incomplete ISAKMP SA
===

I have the feeling it lies with the ipsec.conf information for the e.bootis
VPN (ipsec.exe) system.

Has anyone experienced similar problems ?

[leaf-user] TFTP & Leaf Bering Uclib2.0

2004-02-18 Thread Robert &amp; Sabine von Knobloch
Hello LEAF World,

I'm setting up a log recording system to hard disk that also exports the
logs to another machine when needed.
Trying to use TFPT (because there is a client as a LEAF package available)
gives problems with the firewall.
"Normal" protocols use a well-known port to the server and a client-chosen
return port. This allows Shorwall`s stateful packet filter to open the
return port and all is OK. TFTP chooses it's ports according to some hash
values at each end so that the returning UDP packets do not have the same
ports numbers as the requests.
The Firewall then drops these return packets as not being allowed (my
rulebase only allows defined port access from the local net). As I have
several hosts in the internal net, it seems impossible to predict all the
possible ports to allow (and, anyway, it's lousy security). Is there a way
to configure Shorewall to recognise the 'statefulness' (grammatically bad,
but it describes the problem) of TFTP ? OR is there a "proper" FTP client
anywhere ?

Many thanks,

Robert von knobloch

Use the ip-conntrack-tftp  netfilter module. This will take care of your 
problems

[leaf-user] LEAF and H323

2004-03-08 Thread Robert &amp; Sabine von Knobloch
Hall LEAF World,

i'm trying (I know it's not very secure, but some friends want desperately
to do it) to set up a MS Netmeeting 3 connection between 2 private networks
8mine with a LEAF Bering Uclibc 2 Firewall has anyone experience of how to
set this up in the Shorewall rules? I have loaded the ip_conntrack_h323.0 &
ip_nat_h323.o and have rules to allow ports 1720 & 1503 out (and Port
forward incoming to a Windoze PC).
So far I can get some signalling (remote end asys there is a connection, but
I can't complete the call.
I know there are many UDP ports involved, what must I tell Shorewall to
allow the traffic flow ?

p.s. ust for info - not directly LEAF. Here in Germany we have now got URL's
(since 1st. March) with the special german "Umlaut" characters in them
(those with 2 dots above them). I have a web site with such a domain name,
it became active today when I found that MSIE §$%&! won't acces such
addresses. Mozilla works fine but, sadly, most others tend to have MSIE :-(
I don't know if MS are going to fix this, but it seems pretty stupid.

Greetings from the Black Forest,

Robert von Knobloch
