<0> hey folks. i'm stumped on an IPTABLES problem. can anyone help?
<0> i'm setting up a client's laptop as an internet gateway using a cellular dialup... need to get masquerading working with iptables
<1> what exactly has you stumped?
<2> nooooo... Gmail is down...
<0> fiver: i have a working ipchains config and need to get it translated to iptables. i believe i'm getting hung up on syntax... also the config files and scripts in fedora are quite diff from the commands i had hard-coded into my rh9 rc.local script
<0> i found iptables scripts to start, stop and restart. i also found the iptables config file - which looks like it's built dynamically
<0> but when i add a command to the nat table, it won't forward packets to the wan side.
<1> let's see your nat rule?
<1> you can use a regular script like you did with ipchains to build the iptables ruleset and then use iptables-save to generate a file using the syntax in /etc/sysconfig/iptables. that file is usually generated by lokkit
<0> lokkit?
<1> the name of the gui firewall config tool
<1> it's rather rudimentary
<1> works fine if all you need to do is allow traffic to specific ports, but for advanced configs it's useless
<0> fiver: i will look for that on my temp system right now... using knoppix in order to experiment with it.
<1> those are redhat/fedora-specific things, I believe
<1> in any case, can you show me your nat rule that's not working?



<0> the nat system that is not working is on the client's machine in their office right now..... i was hoping to get this knoppix setup working, then i'd copy the configs to a usb drive
<0> the ipchains configs that work i only have on hardcopy right now.
<3> Can I use ssh term to pipe program output from one host to another host?
<4> Fiver: freshmeat.net search: firestarter good quality gui iptables
<1> gnubien: I'm not looking for gui iptables
<4> oops
<0> gnubien, thanks... i'll look into it though... it may help to generate the proper syntax for me, while giving me visual cues where to put the relvant information
<4> dejay: yea, firestarter is good for that; you newbie,user,geek level iptables ppl now?
<0> what are the most basic commands to forward packets from device eth0 to ppp0?
<4> dejay: freshmeat.net search: quicktables may teach you more than firestarter; easy setup too
<0> i have an old redhat box with a working ipchains config (now on hardcopy), and i'm setting up a fedora box from scratch for a client... haven't used NAT in so long that i forgot all i knew
<0> cool. thank you for the pointers!!! i'll check those out in a few min.
<0> i have to get going for now ... losing cell battery
<0> i'll recharge the battery and reconnect here later this evening to research that.
<0> thank you again. g'nite.
<5> I've been using NFS on a lot of systems for > 5yrs now and on 100mbps, I've always maxed out at 11-13mb/s, on a raptor<->raptor xfer I get 55-75MB/s on FTP but only 10-20mb/s on NFS, does anyone know why?
<6> war92 : what are your rsize and wsize options?
<6> and do you use sync or async?
<6> anyway, use async [that's done via /etc/exports], and also change your rsize/wsize, to say 8192
<7> how can i burn a iso to a dvd?
<7> the contents of the iso that is
<7> i used growisofs -Z /dev/dvd blah.iso and it just burned the iso :-/
<8> what socket type is the 2.5ghz Celeron?
<9> hollenjf, is a socket 478
<10> hello
<11> why is dnssec-keygen taking over 2 min to do anything?
<12> i need a sugesstion as to which linux i should install on my dual opteron computer
<12> i need nforce4 sata
<12> and nvidia video
<11> try Ubuntu
<11> it has good support for weird stuff
<12> heh
<12> ubuntu won't install boot loader :(
<12> it lockes up at that point every time
<9> use slackware ..i like it most:D
<12> x86-64?
<9> yes ....slamd64 but slack x86 works fine too
<12> yeah
<12> but i have 6gb mem
<12> need 64-bit OS
<9> ok then take slamd64
<9> is slakcware for amd 64
<9> processors
<2> the 32-bit CPUs can access up to 64 GB of memory, right? Not necessarily address it all at once, but access anyhow...
<13> can someone tell me why I can't copy and paste text into a Yahoo! chat room?
<13> it uses java
<13> I can't copy and paste just fine when using windows but not linux
<13> *I can
<13> I CAN copy and past just fine when using windows but not linux.
<9> you have a mouse with scroll??
<14> is there a program i can use to monitor the processes on my system, log their cpu usage every half a second or so, and then view a graph afterwards to see which program is causing a spike in CPU usage every few minutes?
<2> 'ps aux' and some text processing will work
<13> silverblade, 'system monitor' does that
<14> nomin - will it monitor each process individually?
<13> I don't think the graph will do just one process, but it shows in text how much % of processor usage is used by each process.
<13> you just click the '% cpu' button and it will order the processes by their usage.
<13> i think every linux distro has this program or one similar
<15> Hi :)
<14> hmm
<14> anything to remotely monitor?
<15> anyone mind DCC sending me a small test file so I can test out how my receive is working? :)



<16> any site where to get yahoo messenger for suse 9.1 ?
<14> friendsr2: have you tried using GAIM? (or is there a proper yahoo client?)
<17> silverblade: you want gkrellm2
<14> mtnbkr: i thought that only gave "live" stats?
<17> silverblade: oh....yeah, you want this saved for future viewing?
<14> yep
<17> Then I'd say you're looking at mrtg and snmp, but mrtg by default polls every 5 mins.
<14> basically when im playing Unreal Tournament, every few minutes the system freezes up for a couple of seconds
<17> silverblade: hard drive syncing?
<17> swap etc.
<16> silverblade gaim does not work
<14> friendsr2: oh... i use yahoo on it
<14> mtnbkr: i dont think it is... but thats what id like to find out
<17> silverblade: can you run UT in a 'window' and not full screen? if so, then gkrellm2 is the ****.
<14> mtnbkr: i think so yes :D forgot about that
<17> and it may allow you to quickly diagnose this issue
<14> how can i identify the offending process though
<16> do i need to download gaim again?
<14> id get the latest version
<16> silverblade: is there a suse ver for gaim......
<14> i think so
<16> silverblade: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/downloads.php does not have
<18> friendsr2: yast has a builtin ftp installer that'll auto install 8000+ apps
<16> k
<16> dear i am new
<18> most dsistro's have a similar ability
<18> you guys should learn to rtfm....
<14> i was about to suggest yast, but couldnt remember what suse used
<18> yast is suse's admin tool
<18> friendsr2: run yast and point the installation medium to ftp.suse.com
<16> k
<19> ello
<19> what would cause this?
<19> Feb 4 15:22:16 sleeper kernel: factorial[15446]: segfault at 0000000000020f51 rip 000000000040356e rsp 00007ffffffa9c90 error 4
<20> How do I take the directory of /mnt/cdrom and turn that into an iso file that can be bootable once it has been burned with a program like k3b?
<14> thats quite heavy...
<14> are you trying to just clone a cd?
<14> if so, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=somefile.iso
<21> im just getting used to linux as a whole and have been using ubuntu..but to stay in sync w/ my books on LAMP im thinking of going to Fedora
<21> will that be an easy transition?
<22> well fedora was my first distro..
<22> and I seemed to get it then when I knew nothing
<22> so if you have some background knowledge in linux already it shouldn't be particularly difficult
<18> fedora is quite diff to ubuntu
<21> ubuntu seemed too easy ...
<21> it was my first distro ...now i use Ubuntu and DSL
<21> im just worried ill be more wrapped up in Fedora stuff than learning what i need to learn
<18> depends what you _need_ to learn....
<21> LAMp
