RE: [leaf-user] Re: Trouble getting started
If I remember correctly, if you have more then one 3C509, you'll have to specify the io irq for both cards when you load the module. It only probs for one card automagically.

You may need to use the dos setup program to set cards up. HTH. I agree. I have 2 3c509 cards. Nothing works until you boot into DOS, run the 3COM DOS configurator tool on both cards.

DId you try my suggestion of testing the cards one at a time, always in the same isa slot? Assuming eth0 always gets configured, this will let you use /proc/interrupts and /proc/ioports to find out the settings for each card. I really do not know any other way to get this information using Linux (I suggested yesterday the ways that use the BIOS and DOS). My ioports shows this for the cards: 0300-030f : 3c509 This is good. It is a fairly standard io location for an ISA NIC. If it is the only entry for a 3c509, and you checked it when both cards were in the system, it hints at the possibility that both NICs are set for the same ioport, a setting you will *have* to change with the DOS-based config utility Patrick references. (Other possibilities remain too. Did you check the shared slot problem I mentioned yesterday?) My interrupts shows: CPU0 0: 128443 XT-PIC timer 1:881 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 6:227 XT-PIC floppy 8: 1 XT-PIC rtc NMI: 0 ERR: 0 Chris -- I am confused by this report. Though you show an ioport for the NIC, you do not show an IRQ for it. If this report is from a system that has a configured eth0 -- as your messages from yesterday imply it should be -- I am at a loss to understand how this system is functioning at all. Please clarify. (Maybe you need to ping something as well, so the IRQ will be used.) Second, as I said yesterday, my memory of the 3c509 driver is a bit hazy. But I believe it autodetects (properly configured) NICs and does NOT use the io= argument Patrick suggests below. The ne module Patrick uses is different from 3c509 in this respect; it has poor (some would say nonexistant) autodetect capability, and it does make use of the io= argument. How does everyone else use these cards? Boot into DOS to use the configuration utility to figure out io and irq? Back when I used these cards, this is exactly what I did ... except it was to *set* the IRQ and IO values, not figure out what they were. (In those days, NICs commonly came factory-set for the same values as DOS's COM2 (irq 3, io 2f8) so had to be reset to work even 1 per system.) I wasn't able to get the information from the BIOS output during startup. Why not? How do I pass the io and irq to the 3C509 cards in the module configuration? You don't. Modules do NOT set card irq and io values; they detect them. The 3c509 module uses the values that the cards are set for, if they are valid values. If they are not valid values, it simply fails to find them. If you don't happen to have the 3c5x9cfg.exe utility you can find it here: http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/nic/3c509/3c5096.1.htm which is a 2 disk package. Extract the contents from disk 2 and you'll find it there. Boot into DOS and run the utility, choose an appropiate range somewhere between 0x200-0x3xx. In /etc/modules you should just have to insert io=0x200,0x300 next to 3c509 as I remember it. I don't know if Bering's kernel 2.4.x needs any extra parameters, that's how I did it with the ne module with a 2.2.x kernel. I have been using one 3c509 card since '97 without a hitch... --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.

I would expect the other interfaces each to have a line like the last line under lo: . I ask because we need to figure out whether the problem is with the *creation* of the interfaces or with the *configuration* of the interface? That is, does eth1 not exist at all, or does it exist but lack an IP address? Here's how to sort that part out. 1. Before Linux boots, look at the system's BIOS message display and see if it shows 2 or 1 NICs. If 2, note the IRQs it mentions. (This can be hard to do, as this info often is onscreen only for a second or two, so you may have to start the boot process several times to spot it.) If not, make sure your BIOS is set up to assign IRQs to both isa slots. You don't mention your hardware here, but if it is a mixed isa/pci mobo, you may be running into a problem caused by trying to use both the pci and the isa slot in a shared pair ( where the BIOS permits you to use ony one of the slots). 2. After Linux boots/inits, see if 2 NICs are associated with IRQs and IO base ports, by checking /pdoc/interrupts and /proc/ioports . 3. Try ip link show to see if there is an unconfigured eth1 present on the system. The later problems, with the routing table and the firewall ruleset, are derivative of whichever problem besets the second NIC. So there is no need to pursue that level of investigation further until we have figured out where the second NIC is hiding. If you find that no eth1 interface is being created, you may have one of these two problems: 1. The second NIC is defective. 2. Both NICs are assigned the same IRQ and/or IO base. To check these possibilities, try running the system with the NICs in one at a time. If it works (for eth0) with one but not the other, you have the first problem. If both work but turn up with the same IRQ /or IO bases, you have the second problem. (In the second case, you can check Becker's site to see if he has a config utility for the 3c509 -- I don't remember one, but I think he added some new ones after I stopped using 3Com NICs -- or you can get the DOS-based NIC-configuration utility 3Com provides (or once did; I assume it is still available on their Website) ... as I recall, the 3c509 never supported PnP, so you will have to fix this problem by hand. (BTW, it has been some years since I used 3c509 cards, or any isa NIC for that matter, but I do recall that the 3c509 module was perfectly able to handle multiple NICs. So don't go astray down that road.) If you find that eth1 is present but unconfigured, you need to tell us what IP address you are trying to assign to it, and how. nothing in ip route.

Re: [leaf-user] Re: Trouble getting started
I don't remember what dist you're running, but I assume it's a recent one with Shorewall? Have you declared both interfaces? If you run lsmod, you should see something like: ip_nat_irc 2032 0 (unused) ip_nat_ftp 2672 0 (unused) ip_conntrack_irc2144 0 (unused) ip_conntrack_ftp2848 0 (unused) 3c509 6564 2 Do you?
