RedHat 5.1 (Yes, I'm THAT brave), MediaOne, Lose95 client off firewall.
<SIDENOTE>
RedHat 5.1 kernel recognized _BOTH_ of my DEC DE-450 Tulip cards ($11.95
each)from the get-go. No recompiling the kernel. The hardware
compatibility list is your friend.
</SIDENOTE>
After some doing, I've implemented Robert Ziegler's "Using Linux to
Configure a Home LAN and Connect to Mediaone Express" faq at
http://rlz.mediaone.net/linux
Is there a better reference?
1) I don't see how ifdhcp-done executed rc.firewall. Can someone tell me?
2) I'm not sure of the lines in /etc/sysconfig/network. I have:
NETWORKING=yes
FORWARD_IPV4=true <= does "yes" or "true" make a difference?
HOSTNAME=kramer.ne.mediaone.net <= my hostname or the host to outside?
GATEWAYDEV=eth0 <= should this be the port to inside or outside
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 <= should this be the fw's inside ip or outside?
3)From my Win95 box, I can connect with ftp, but not ls, etc. I can from
do both the firewall. I thought the following line (from the above FAQ)
would handle that:
# allow ftp-data (20), ftp (21)
# 20 is necessary client to 'ls' our ftp site.
ipfwadm -I -a accept -P tcp -W $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE \
-S $ANYWHERE $UNPRIVPORTS \
-D $LOCALHOST 20 21
I saw some reference on this list to a ip_masq_ftp. Do I need that?
Where would I get it?
4)I can't check news from my Win95 box either. I AssUMed thatit was a
straightforward change to the rule above, but when I added 119, it didn't
work.
Thanks in advance.
