Trouble with UDP/IP communications
I am trying to develop applications based upon UDP, but ran into a problem doing UDP communications in the LAN on which I test my stuff, and I don't have the vaguest idea where to start checking. The perl Camel book has an example of communicating with UDP sockets. A slightly modified script is attached to this E-mail message. When I try the script in the LAN as follows: $ ./udpecho.pl 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.26 \ > 192.168.0.31 I get the following output: error sending to 192.168.0.1: Invalid argument error sending to 192.168.0.2: Invalid argument error sending to 192.168.0.31: Invalid argument Reply from host geosedit: Host 3: 127.0.0.1 Reply from host geosedit: Host 4: localhost Reply from host geosedit: Host 5: 192.168.0.26 Analysis: 192.168.0.1 - exists in the LAN 192.168.0.2 - does not exist 127.0.0.1 - my own host localhost - my own host (of course!) 192.168.0.26 - my own host 192.168.0.31 - exists in the LAN I don't understand why the UDP communication with 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.31 does not work as it should be. The UDP port 7 is enabled (when it is blocked, I get a "Connection refused" error, rather than "Invalid argument"). With TCP/IP (telnet, HTTP, etc.) I had absolutely no problems. Environmental Details: -- 1. The LAN is 100-Base TX Ethernet, with hub model DH-1600 10/100Mbps Dual Speed Hub, manufactured by Planet Technology Corp. 2. The perl version being used is 5.005_03 built for i386-linux. 3. The Linux version being used by localhost is: Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot) Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i586 4. The relevant line from /etc/inetd.conf is: echodgram udp waitrootinternal Any advice where should I look for the reasons for my UDP/IP problems?

I always install LILO in the "superblock of the root partition", eg. boot = /dev/hda2. If I understand correctly, there is a boot record for the entire disk (the MBR) and also a boot record for each partition. Install LILO in your linux root partition and then you can let windows/dos have the MBR the way it wants to.. all you have to do after you install windows (if you installed linux first) is go into fdisk and set your linux root partition boot flag (and remove it from any other partition).

If that's your approach, you'll find that you need to change active partition every time you want to switch Linux/windows. I, personally, do not feel comfertable with manually tweeking my partition table. I know that some multi-boots do that automatically (boot magic), and I'm still not sure how comfertable I am with that. The beuty of using the NT boot manager is that, on one hand, you don't need to install any program beyond those already installed on your system, and on the other hand, you don't need to touch your partition table every time you want a different boot. The only thing is how to update the boot manager every time you recompile. My favourite: Add to boot.ini C:\BOOTSECT.LIN="Linux" from linux (assuming C:\ is mounted as /mnt/C), do dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/mnt/C/BOOTSECT.LIN bs=512 count=1 and in lilo.conf, change root to read root=/mnt/C/BOOTSECT.LIN From there on - continue as usual. If you cannot write to your NT root from linux (NTFS), bootpart is the best way to go.

The method I described uses LILO for the main loader. NT only has to know about itself and therefore you don't have to do anything in NT when you change kernels, etc.. I suppose if you wanted to you could install a different loader on each partition and put options for the other in each of them and switch back and forth between them during boot.. if you get really bored.

AFAIK windows 9x is happy even if it's c: is not the active partition.

I've never had any problems with this method. Comments? This is good solution when you have something like NT loader or System Commander that you have installed them first and then installed Linux. When you do this its will not overwrite your MBR and this will let you still use your NT loader or System commander without any probs with one more choice there: "Linux" :) >-Cedar Regards, Eran Levy.

Re: MS prohibits licensees using open source as development tools?
I have read the EULA in question. The situation was blown up, due to Microsoft's own FUD tactics. They claim that GPL is more "infectious" than it really is. They claim that if you edit and compile code using GPLed tools, your code must, too, be GPLed. This is untrue. According to what I understand from the EULA, you are prohibited from using any tools, which would require Microsoft's code (and its derivatives) from being GPLed (or being licensed under another viral open source license). Since GPLed tools don't make such a requirement, they really are not prohibited according to EULA's terms. But nervous PHBs, who don't have the time to tell FUD apart from real facts, would play it safe and prohibit their employees from using GPLed tools, and thus play into Microsoft's hands.

It would be nice If the docs would tell how the mail flows (postfix(port 25)-> amavisd ( unix socket) -> postfix(localhost port 10025) -> delivery local & remote) As long as you use smtp or postfix's sendmail script it will go into the scanner. > Downsides: > * complication (for instance: you now have to "master" processes) > * resource consumption (not much, but I have to mention it ;-) Content filter is much better.

Linux support for LG ether NIC
Hi list! Plonter sells LG's LNIC-1000/SX fibre gig card, for roughly 150$-200$ cheaper than 3com's 3C985 or Intel's PRO/gig adapter. http://www.lgnetwork.com/css/product/information/product_html/lnic-1000sx-1.html says these cards are supported by linux kernel 2.0.35 and up. I didn't find a word about this card in recent kernel sources, and I didn't find any downloadable drivers for these cards at all. I have a stomach hunch that in spite of 2.2.18 or 2.4.5 being technically higher than 2.0.35, it may not neccesarily support the new kernels. Anyone ran into these or has any working experience with LG NICs?

My ADSL line will support 64k upstream. I can push it to my web site, but the line will be choked if the iso is even slightly more popular than Ayatollah Levinger's Hallucinatory Views On Rights and Equality (tm). I would be delighted to put it on the IGLU machine (per jba suggestion), but I would need an account. Failing that, I _will_ put it on my web site. -- ---MAV Linguists Do It Cunningly Marc A.

As far as routes, mine are simple: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface 10.0.2.10.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH0 00 cipcb0 192.168.2.0 10.0.2.1255.255.255.0 UG0 00 cipcb0 .. .and the file: --- # Surprise, this file allows comments (but only on a line by themselves) # This is probably the minimal set of options that has to be set # Without a "device" line, the device is picked dynamically # the peer's IP address ptpaddr 10.0.2.1 # our CIPE device's IP address ipaddr 10.0.1.1 # The static key. Keep this file secret! # The key is 128 bits in hexadecimal notation. key 764efa883dda1e11db47671c4a3bbd9e # my UDP address. Note: if you set port 0 here, the system will pick # one and tell it to you via the ip-up script. Same holds for IP 0.0.0.0. me 0.0.0.0:6789 # ...and the UDP address we connect to. Of course no wildcards here. peer192.114.47.57:6789 --- For the other machine, switch the ptpaddr and ipaddr addresses and change the peer address. Note: you can choose any port instead of 6789. I just remembered that there's another method besides the static key. I chose the static key method because it is simple. I agree that the DH key exchange stuff is a bit more difficult to set up.. Actually, I'm trying to get SMB/CIFS stuff to work but having difficulty. It may be that the ipaddr/ptpaddr should be something like 10.0.1.1 / 10.0.1.2 instead. I still haven't got the P-t-P network stuff straight in my head.. comments? -Cedar = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Trivial? IMHO, I remember pppd+ssh sounding more complicated than cipe.. Besides that, I didn't like the idea of that little rouge utility running as root on my system (the tty tool, I forget the name). As for cipe, compile the kernel module (IMO, simple), write a five line config file and run the daemon.

I'm curious to see what you did. I'm sure mine is something of a hack job.. Here's something interesting: We have two servers that located under 10km of each other (near and in Mevesseret Zion). The ADSL connection often gets knocked off on both servers within 1 minute of each other.. but not always. Actually I think it's at the same time because I don't keep very close tabs on the system clocks. -Cedar = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
