samba
Hello My server is on a subnet 10.10.20.0/24 subnet and a user from the subnet 192.168.20.0/24 is given access to some files on the file server. I have configured samba accordingly. The samba server can be mapped on the user's PC. Read and write permissions are ok. However, the user is complaining that it takes a very long time to savea document and that the machine slows down considerably. The OS is Windows Nt workstation 4.0 . Any comments on this problem Madhvi
RE: Linuxconf Substitute?
Are we talkin about editors or linuxconf ?? I thought linuxconf was cool i upgraded to RH 7.2 and installed linuxconf too ... Although editing the files is ok but its pretty tiresome when ur changin things quite often ... occassionally when X dies i go back to vi ... but for linuxconf is a must for everyday stuff i remember havin to relearn how to do :wq in vi though ... ;-) if anyone wants a substitute for linuxconf shipped with RH i suggest downloading installing the real linuxconf from the linuxconf site itself ...

Re: info on kde autorun.desktop
Thanks! I wasn't sure if I could just remove the whole thing file or not. Since the xterms don't even have floppy drives, it's silly for them all to be monitoring the CD drive on the server :-) Brian Ashe wrote: Nick, On Wednesday 16 January 2002 04:07, you said something about: All you have to do is delete (or move) the ~/.kde/Autostart/Autorun.desktop file. To achieve what? I think you're on the wrong track Janyne asked. Nope. I was wondering if someone on this list could point me in the direction of information about the proper format of the Auturun.desktop file. Configuring it would be silly. It is basically just the execution of a command. It is the equivilent of the Startup folder in WinXX. It just has some extra lines that will change icons, etc. So if you wanted to customize it you would do something like... change the line that reads... Exec=/bin/bash -c (pid=$(/sbin/pidof autorun) ps -p $pid u|egrep ^$USER\ /dev/null)||if test -O /dev/console -a -x /usr/bin/autorun;then /usr/bin/autorun -l --interval=1000 --cdplayer=/usr/bin/kscd fi to... Exec=/bin/bash -c echo a /dev/null Now you are executing a command that has no practical purpose, but achieves the same result. I would like to customize it a bit (at least to figure out what I can removed to stop that darn CD ROM thing starting) and I am having problems finding any documentation about this file. The ONLY purpose of that file is to execute the command to monitor the CD-R. Remove it if you don't want that to happen. It starts the program autorun (see above). You can place other files like this to have things start automatically in the Autostart folder. It is simply like a rc.d type area for KDE start-up or as I said above like the WinXX Startup folder. So if you think of each file as a program or script to run, then if you don't want something to run, remove it. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.

Re: Konqueror and SSL sites?
Hi David, I've been very impressed with Konqueror as a web browser but I have never yet got it to work with an SSL site. If I go to an HTTPS site it just hangs and I have to kill the process. How about sharing the URL so we can try it? Are you behind a NAT gateway? Konqueror hasn't given me any trouble, but there are some known buglets in iptables that may cause similar issuelets, for which there are fixlets. Well if I go to hotmail (www.hotmail.com) it gets halfway through displaying the login screen and hangs. If I go to my own server and access my webmail (https://www.zordah.net/mail) it doesn't even load the page at all! I access my webmail every day from work with IE so I know it is fine. I just thought of something common between these pages. Both will be doing redirects to other URLsCould this be it? I tried going to my payment page (https://www.zordah.net/payaccount.php) which doesn't do any redirects and I got half the page loaded but most of the images didn't load and Konqueror is sitting there with it's cogwheel spinning in the top right corner. Again in IE this works fine... My NAT firewall is a Red Hat Linux 6.2 system still running IPChains. I never had problems with any other browser and SSL sites, just Konqueror.

Re: DNAT?
Thanks, David. Your point is a good one, but for one exception...I'm using non-routable IPs behind the firewall. When I turn off the firewall, nothing gets forwarded from the workstations and server behind it.

In my (not always) humble opinion, it would help you a lot to mentally and physically separate the functions of routing and filtering. Your NAT and forwarding rules should be in one file, and your packet filtering in another. That allows you to isolate the sources of trouble, as well as keep those functions separate in your head. In this case, for instance, it would have been very desirable to shut down packet filtering entirely to ensure that it was not at fault, while leaving forwarding/routing rules active. I have two sets of rules, living at /etc/init.d/router and /etc/init.d/firewall, for this reason. This also makes it safe to tinker with my routing rules without momentarily leaving my system unprotected.

RE: NAT and FTP
Rob, you're close, but have a few things mixed up. You're control port (21) will always stay static on that port. It will never change unless someone configure the FTP server to listen on a different port. Port 20 (the data port) is for active connections. It too is statically bound to that port. It will never change. however, this is somewhat insecure, since haxors can use sniffing devices to listen to data passing on that port. Hence the introduction of passive connections. When a data transfer is about to commence, the FTP server sends a port number to the client, telling it what port the client should communicate on (it's usually a really high port 1024). Each time a FTP server must communicate via passive mode, a different port is randomly chosen as to lower the possibility of sniffed data. The FTP client controls whether an active/passive connection is used. However, certain FTP clients don't give you the option to use either or (ie: Win95 DOS ftp). -Rob Hey Julian, Yes, there's something about that. Passive ftp vs active. Active ftp will jump around with it use of ports (I don't know if it's the data, control, or both that actually jump). I'm not sure if you can tell the server whether or not to use passive, but I know you can tell the client. Sometimes people forget that IE can be used as an ftp client, so don't forget to set the passive ftp check box in the IE tools/options area. Hopefully you won't need a whole book on ftp.

Therefor the end result is a lot of newbie's getting a bad first impression of LC.

RE: NAT and FTP
I'd be interested in your IPtables / pureftpd setup on this. I'm running pure-ftpd also, and I haven't even tried to setup passive mode. heck it's possible that I've got it enabled ;-) -Original Message- From: Robert Dege [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 10:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: NAT and FTP I had great difficulty getting passive mode to work on a 2.2.x box with IP masq'd. From what I've heard, IPtables handles that better than ipchains, but I haven't had the opportunity to try that. I don't use wu-ftpd, due to the countless amounts of security holes it contains. I use pureftpd (http://pureftpd.sourceforge.net). It allows me to specify the passive ports, and spoof the passive IP address that gets passed as well. If you're ftp server has a real world IP, then your task will be significantly easier. But more info is needed. -Rob Robert, Thanks for explaining that to us. I thought that was how it was. My question then, remains:- If I want the server to support passive mode, and open up a set of ports to support it, how do I instruct the wu-ftpd to use the set of ports that I have opened up? I cannot see any configuration options in kwuftpd that address this. Thanks, Julian. At 07:27 AM 1/17/02, you wrote: Rob, you're close, but have a few things mixed up. You're control port (21) will always stay static on that port. It will never change unless someone configure the FTP server to listen on a different port. Port 20 (the data port) is for active connections. It too is statically bound to that port. It will never change. however, this is somewhat insecure, since haxors can use sniffing devices to listen to data passing on that port. Hence the introduction of passive connections. When a data transfer is about to commence, the FTP server sends a port number to the client, telling it what port the client should communicate on (it's usually a really high port 1024). Each time a FTP server must communicate via passive mode, a different port is randomly chosen as to lower the possibility of sniffed data. The FTP client controls whether an active/passive connection is used. However, certain FTP clients don't give you the option to use either or (ie: Win95 DOS ftp). -Rob Hey Julian, Yes, there's something about that. Passive ftp vs active.

The Linuxconf Substitute-s
Folks, Perhaps I missed something in the thread, but I read the subject line question a bit differently - i.e. since Linuxconf is deprecated, what is Red Hat doing to replace Linuxconf? I assume the answer is related to the variety of GUI front-ends that Red Hat has developed (and presumably is developing) such as printconf, apacheconf, neat, and lokkit. At least I think that's what I've read in the Red Hat public statements. The sub-question based on the thread seems to be - are these tools truly useful, or are they (or at least some of them) as buggy as Linuxconf? Based on proper (I prefer the regular vi) comparisons of configuration files, can they at least serve as learning tools for newbies? Are any of them ready for prime-time?

Sub-net directed broadcast
Title: Sub-net directed broadcast Hello. I have 2 networks: 10.0.2.0/24 and 10.0.3.0/24 connected by a router. I am sitting on a computer with an IP of 10.0.3.100 and I want to send a broadcast to the 10.0.2.0/24 network. Now, by rule routers will drop all packets for 255.255.255.255, so I send out a packet to 10.0.2.255 (subnet directed broadcast). This packet is not getting through and I was wondering if there are any special kernel options that need to be turned on to allow this to happen? (the router IS working, I can ping, ftp, ssh, etc...)

Re: DSL + 2 Real IPs
Nit, Your thinking and that's good! I'm not sure if you see the whole picture though. route table: (using cisr for brevity 255.255.255.255= /32 255.255.255.0 =/24) 192.168.1.1/32 if0 192.168.1.2/32 if1 192.168.1.3/32 if1 default 192.168.1.4/32 if0 ifconfig: if0 inet 192.168.1.1/32 if1 inet 192.168.1.2/32 Remember: any address/subnet mask set in ifconfig will be added as a route in the route table. Example: if0 encounters a packet for 192.168.1.3. The mask on if0 tells the ip stack that 192.168.1.3 is not in if0's network so it forwards it to the route code. The route table says 'forward to if1.' If1 encounters a packet for 192.168.1.3. Since the mask if1 tells the ip stack that 192.168.1.3 is not in the same network as if1, it will get sent back to the routing code and the packet never gets to the laptop. Ask your self this: what happens when the network information on a host doesn't match the network information in it's gateway? What happens when you assign a /32 subnet mask to a host? nit etc wrote: --- Kevin Holmquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Nit, When you say subnet, are you referring to a subnetted address block or the subnet mask? Two subnets can have the same mask yet they are different subnets, or networks. Routing, by definition, is between networks. A basic route table entry looks like this: network address -mask-interface to forward to (please, no flames about weighted routes, flags, metrics, etc : )) The two routes your suggesting would look like this example: 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 if0 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 if1 I was suggesting routing between two different networks with the same mask. 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 if0 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 if1 So where do packets for 192.168.0.247 go? The router has two valid routes and results would be unpredictable. If you're thinking about a route entry for a single host: 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 if0 192.168.0.247 255.255.255.255 if1 I was suggesting the following: 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.255 eth0 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.255 eth1 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.255 eth1 default 192.168.1.4 eth0 where 192.168.1.4 is Verizon's gateway, 192.168.1.1,2 are NICs on my Linux box where 192.168.1.2 is connected to a hub on my internal network, and 192.168.1.3 is a laptop. When the gateway receives a packet for 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.3 eth0, it puts it on eth1 after looking at the routing table, so the above wouldnt require my gateway to run RIP since Im statically assigning the routes, and dont have a block of IPs to route traffic between, and because routing information wont change for me. I am aware that this is not how 'hosts' work, but a kernel configured to act as a 'gateway' or 'router' must do the above; else all that I have learnt in my graduate network course is false ;) This doesn't work because broadcast traffic (traffic to 192.168.0.255) would either never get to 192.168.0.247 or the router would see two valid routes. In my table above, the broadcast traffic will goto all hosts 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3, except to the one generating the brodcast, but it will not be put on the eth0 wire, since that is against an RFC whose number I cant recall(this makes sense, since otherwise there would be a 'broadcast loop'). Clear as mud yet? :) nit etc wrote: snip I dont see why I would require two different subnets. Gateways can definetly be configured to route traffic between two networks with identical subnets. However, in my case, I do believe that things will work if both my NICs have an IP from Verizon, and I could add static routes for them with the mask of 32.

I've got a weird problem. One of my systems can not connect to a remote host...while every other system on the network can. Now, I thought that maybe it was a matter of the IP being blocked/filtered at the remote end...but at the time, the system was acting as a mail server, and a masquerading firewall...so all connections to the remote end looked like they were coming from the same IP. Yet, connections directly from the system in question were failing (even when had run service iptables stop). So, thinking it might have to do with the firewall system, I put together a dedicated firewall, and put the server behind it. Now, with the firewall masquerading that connection, the connections appear to be coming from the firewall's IP. Great? No. The firewall can make connections to the remote host, and the server still can not. So, I'm now trying to figure out what's going on with this system. There are no extraneous routes on the system...just the localhost, local network, and default gateway. This is a RH 7.1 box, fully up2dated. Any ideas? Anyone else having a similar problem?

RE: suprise lag (new development)
I don't really know, but it is likely that your firewall settings are not set properly to receive pings on one of your machines. There are several types ICMP messages that need to pass through the firewall for a ping to work. However it is unlikely that your ping problem is related to the other issues you are seeing. Stay tuned, with the help of others on this list we should be able to figure things out!

pop3 and imap suddenly very slow
Help! My formerly functioning (beautifully) mail server is being *extremely* slow of a sudden, taking over a minute between connect and authorization. This is RH 7.2 with sendmail-8.11.6-3 and imap-2000c-15. The clients are MS Outlook Express -- these I can extend the timeout to 2 minutes, at which point it works -- and MS Outlook 2000 -- which I can extend timeout for receiving, but times out trying to send. Netscape has same problems. Mail arrives at the server from outside with no problem, and goes straight into /var/spool/mail/username. I've tried re-installing the imap.rpm. I have tried removing the log_on lines in /etc/xinetd.d/ipop3. I have tried putting entries for each client in the /etc/hosts file. I've changed Timeout.ident to 1s in /etc/sendmail.cf. Have stopped and started sendmail uncounted times. Have cleared everything out of /var/spool/mqueue. I have 100 clients who use the server. top reports 98% idle cpu, and 359meg mem free. df reports plenty of free space on all mounts. DNS appears to work fine (nslookup responds instantly) What could have gone wrong (suddenly--like overnight)? - Tom Bentley [EMAIL PROTECTED] 802-872-5525 ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

RE: pop3 and imap suddenly very slow
I suspect that the mail scanner part of the McAffee update contained a new or replacement for a shared COM (.DLL) component that MS Outlook uses. For 7.x users, have you installed the latest RH updates? My sendmail + ipop3d server on my RH 6.2 server has this problem, but my update-to-date (kernel 2.4.9-12) 7.1 box that uses postfix and QPopper does not have this problem. I do however, need to fix some reverse DNS issues I'm having with my ISP, but this may or may not have something to do with it.

SSH and file transfer
Hey gang, I used to use Tera Term SSH to talk to my box from remote. This solution also allowed me to completely disable ftp telnet from the outside world, as TT has XYZmodem kermit protocols built into it, allowing me to file transfer via those protocols. Unfortunately, TT doesn't support ssh2, and the author has no intent to adding support. Because of the ssh bugs that are about, I set my machine to ssh 2 only, breaking my ability to use TT all its wonderful features. I have dl'd tried putty, but it does not seem to have the fle transfer capabilities. Does anyoneout there know of an SSH term program that supports XYZmodem, besides TT? - especially one that's freeware? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

an interesting idea but i don't think so ...at least not in my case only one of the two rh boxes in the office here is affected, and of those two, the affected one does nothing save serve up content for the intranet and act as an ftp file transfer server for mac/windows/linux files. nothing is ever excecuted on it so i'm more prone to believe my issues lies in a) a bug in the os, or b) my own supidity (more likely).

Send me your smb.conf privately, and I will take a look at it. julian. At 05:22 PM 1/17/02, you wrote: -- Hi guys.. Sorry again But how would I configure a share so that a Windows client can see it?

RE: updating older os
Hi Gabriel, I'm not sure that up2date can even run on 6.2. It's clear that you would need at least need an upgrade before you could use up2date for upgrades. In this case, your better off either downloading the update rpm's from redhat's ftp server: ftp://updates.redhat.com (or even better, use their priority server, if you have access because the updates ftp server is always very slow) and then applying the patches via commands like rpm -Fvh *.rpm. You can accomplish both steps at once using rpm's built -in ftp features, but I don't recommend it. I prefer to have the rpm's copied down first. Note that these updates will likely require you to change lilo.conf and run lilo because of the kernel updates. You will also have to deal with rpm dependency issues but this isn't to hard to learn how to handle rpm dependencies. I'm also upgrading my 6.2 machine to see if the slow connect and other networking issues go away.

usb problems just started
My Sony laptop running 7.2 with a 2.4.9-13 kernel from winfor lin has been working pretty well for several weeks. Last night, after going home and turing the machine on a lot of weird stuff started happening. evolution would not finish coming up, nor mozilla. ps -axf showed several processes with children running netstat -in that appeared to be hung. ifconfig hung. reboot from command line hung while going down after klogd shutdown. same thing on cold start. several tries, booting into rl 3 finally seemed to bring the machine up. Several problems getting it to boot this morning at work. Finally got it to come up with a combination of booting into singleuser mode and and then telinit 5. Or was it 3 first? I forget. Anyway now /var/log/messages has a bunch of these: Jan 17 17:02:17 bretsony kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 308 Jan 17 17:03:24 bretsony kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 1692 Any ideas what would cause this and where to look? I have disabled several of the services and am about to reboot but wanted to send this incase someone says oh yeah you need to tweak the conooter setting in /etc/flibergidit. I will let the list know the results of my reboot soon. I hope. Bret ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
