If the distance is short, or cabling between rooms are under your
control, you can connect both NIC2s with a cross-over cable (transmit
and receive pairs need to be swapped somewhere inbetween) without switch
or router.

[opensuse] Evolution:sending email to two addresses

2006-12-31 Thread Toshi Esumi
Hi,

I'm looking for a better way than manually typing the second email
address for one person in cc. I set two email addresses for the person
in Contacts as Work and Home. But once I chose one of them into To:
list, the other disappears from the selections. The version is 2.8.2 w/
10.2.

I think, first, you need to ask yourself this question: How do you want
to use two different ISP's Internet connections, like specific
destinations (or type of traffic) via ISP1, and the others via ISP2, or
loadbalancing, or ISP2 as the backup in case ISP1's connection is down.

 I don't know how Linux routing works for your requirement but the
device that make the routing decision needs to detect a connectivity
down on one of ISPs. The simplest idea is to switch the default gateway
from the router for your main ISP to the other when you found the main
ISP is down.
 Another solution is to have a device specifically designed for load
balancing for two internet connections. We used one of those, namely
Nexland ISB Pro 800, in our office until a couple of months ago but I
decided taking it out. Because it was causing strange problems, like
intermittent connection loss without ISP's problems. It was too cheap
for office use, I guess (US$400). It can be set to ping public IPs via
both interfaces to detect connection downs. Idea itself was good but
just didn't work well for us.

Make sure your PC's mask matches the one at your gateway device. I'm

I'm not exactly sure but without NAT on at your linux and assign a
different subnet between the Linux and your widows server, I don't think
you can "map" a port access to 10.10.10.240 to your windows server.
In other words, double NATting is necessary, like:

x.x.x.x(a public IP at CISCO:1st NAT)->mapped to 10.10.10.240(at
Linux:2nd NAT)->mapped to 192.168.0.1/24.

ipconfig /all doesn't show routing tables. You still need to use route
print in win, which is the same as ifconfig + route in Linux.

I think you just don't have PATH to the commands. Try full path like:
/usr/sbin/traceroute 4.2.2.2
If it works, then check "echo $PATH".

If you have multiple subnets and this server didn't have multiple IPs
assigned from each subnet, a device(s) is(are) acting as a router(s).
Forget about the other subnets but use a pc in the same subnet to test
this.
Try /sbin/ifconfig at the server to make sure the interface is there, as
well as to see its MAC address.
And, try /sbin/arp at the test linux pc (if it's a windows pc, arp -a)
in the same subnet to see if it can get the server's MAC address. You
may need to ping again the server to see that. By this point, you would
have a good sense which part is not working as it should.

/sbin/arp or arp -a on Windows shows just contents of cache table on the
machine you operated the command. It doesn't send any packets at the
time. When you ping the server first time by its IP address the machine
broadcasts ARP request to LAN to get the MAC address of the destination.
It caches on the memory for a limited duration of time to avoid another
broadcast when it needs to send another packet to the same destination.

Anyhow, you proved all the hardware NIC, Eth Switch, cables, or whatever
inbetween are good. Because the server responded its MAC address to the
device you pinged from. So, something on the server is preventing from
accepting ping packets from outside, or just ignoring. 90% of the times
it's caused by firewall setting at the server. Something must have
gotten changed recently. Whatever the trigger was, like online updates. 

I'm actually not a specialist for firewall setting or that kind of
stuff. Please get help from somebody else from here.
