 I am autostarting sharing resources from a peer with IP8407 and it
works fine. Same with connections.
I don't understand the Samba implications but I run Netbeui and TCPIP
each bound directly to the LAN, not Netbeui over TCPIP.
Is it the share or the connect that is failing?

I believe it is the "share" that does not autostart, As soon as
you use the handy "shares and connections" GUI object to
start the share it will work. The manual intervention is a real
PITA.

The problem is in IP8410 and IP8412.

Yes, there is that.  "Tunneling", I think they call it.  My problem, OTOH, was
that I'm not even getting 8.3 off my 95B setup.  Oh well.

I have problem that I have traced to the cert7.db file in my etscape user

to

Any ideas?

Netscape knows nothing about interfaces - it just talks TCP/IP.
The TCP/IP stack will route traffic to an interface based on the routing that
is configured.

I haven't upgraded to FP12 (yet) and also haven't used Star Office that much
yet but I am up to FP 11 and did have the same non connection problem.  I
found a solution by Network->Network Services->Lan Services
Admin->(Your)Domain->User Accounts->(Tab) Assignments you can set the
connections to become active.  Active is the operative word here.  I found no

FP12, StarOffice etc. has nothing to do with the problem, and the 
suggested "fix" *might* work on a real LAN server, but there is no 
such thing (that I have been able to get to) in a peer network. My 
"workaround", is to do the network logon, then run a batch (*.CMD) 
file, to do a NET USE to connect each of the resources.

Hope this helps...

That started with with the WR08410 Peer fixpak - and 8412 didn't help.
 It's not a FP12 problem.  I gave up and just did the connections in a
startup.cmd file.  Not a big issue, since restarts with NT and Solaris
servers in the net are problematic anyway so we've been usin startup 
.cmd for several years.  We had to do that with DB2 logons anyway so 
why not the rest of the connections?

If you can back the Peer fix level up to WR08407, your re-connects 
will reappear.

As for SO, the Sun ver. 5.1a (free, even for commercial use) has no 
problem with either nb/ip or straight nb on our mixed up domain.

I made the change you suggested & rec'd a 3406 error, "An error occurred
while opening network device driver net1 = tcpbeui$."  Your suggestion
put me on the right path though.  My original net1 line had different
parameters ..,0,LM10,100,100,14.  I inserted these after tcpbeui$ & it's
working fine, or at least I'm not seeing any errors.

Thanks very much for your help.

What you need for printers and file resources is NetBIOS.  

Can't say I know what you're talking about with "DOS based utility
installs".

You don't need either, but you get the most functionality going that route
(IP masquerading).  

Other alternatives include blind proxy programs (IGate), and SOCKS servers
(such as NEC's SOCKS5 server).

I used NEC's SOCKS5 server for a long time with my (now gone) cable modem,
then, when the InJoy Firewall product was released (I was told it was in
the making previously, and was waiting for a few months), I started using
that.  Faster, less CPU usage (on the server), more functionality.

There are always traps and pitfalls in anything.  Without knowing your

into.

There's nothing obvious.

Does NT even support IP masquerading, with or without a 3rd party program?

Because documentation of that scope would be too cumbersome.

The information is out there, in pieces, for the dedicated searcher to
find.

Going by the above, it would seem the older machine has a 2Mbps ethernet
card, while the newer machiner has a 10Mbps ethernet card. 

If ping, telnet, and FTP all work (one ICMP, and two socket level
programs), then the problem might be in your application.  There could be
timing assumptions you made, which no longer hold true with the different
connection speed.  Or a bug in the OS/2 2.1 stack you're using, which
doesn't exist in the V4 stack.

Without more specific information about what it is that fails, I don't
think you'll find any solution in the newsgroups.

Subj: TCP/IP 4.1 firewall

From: wim.gardien@ibmdot.net (W.J.M. Gardien)

I'm trying to configure the buildin firewall in tcpip 4.1. I have all 
the drivers installed and I tried the configuration programs that are 
available but no luck.

Can any one point me to some documentation how to configure this 
feature of 4.1 ? I have a very simple setup (one PC with a direct 
internet connection).

regards,

Wim Gardien

I don't think you'll find one.  Netscape knows nothing about "lan0" or 
"lan1".  It only works with IP addresses, nothing else.  You can set 
up TCP/IP configuration so that certain addresses travel via one card 
or the other, but that's all you can do.  Those settings will also 
affect *EVERY* other IP application.

Well I could try, since I have a working setup with ISDNPM and masqurade.
in your ISDN.CFG file in the %ETC% directory you should have a entry
if_masquerade   : x
under the [ip] section.  My value for the x is 3, which is no masqurade for
the PC
running ISDNPM.
Beside this you have to set the ISDNpm box as gateway for the other machines
in the network.
But I have to admit that the fact that the other computers can ping but not
telnet
does puzzle me.

I hope this was of some help.

Get ServerConfig/2 (Hobbes, others).  It's described as a setup 
fornt-end for the Apache web server but the latest versions include a 
setup frontend for the 4.1 firewall.  Just as important, it also has 
references for more detailed documentation.

I was the one that originally started this thread.

In order to at least get 8.3 filenames in WIN9x, I have
 netbui/netbios protocol enabled in the OS/2 machine.

The domain names must be the same, win9x uses "workgroup", OS/2 uses
 "ibmpeers".

While I am using a windoze box the data resides on the OS/2 machine.
 The windoze machine can see long filenames on the OS/2 box, but not
 vice versa.

I suggest that you get out a notepad as I did, and write down the
 settings that you enabled on both machines and then compare the
 differences.

From a dos prompt on a windoze machine "net config" produces the
 following.

Subj: Remapping ports?

From: mohd.k.yusof@bohm.anu.edu.au (Khairil Yusof)

I'm not very clear on this, I'm behind a Squid HTTP firewall. However port 23 
(telnet) access is unrestricted. Therefore anything going through port 23
works.


eg. AIM, Telnet to outside sites work whereas ICQ doesn't (port 4000). I have 
the feeling ftp transfers on port 23 can connect to the outside too.

I'm not so sure about what is possible with TCP/IP, but is there a way of 
exploiting this to allow me to bypass the firewall? Eg. somehow have apps that 

use different ports go through port 23 transparently? If it could be done 
trasparently for all like SOCKS, it would unreal. But if it is possible to do
it
with individual apps, would be great already. At least, it will allow me to
use 
ICQ and IRC.

I have TCP/IP 4.1, Warp 4.

..exactly my scenario, except that if I try to log onto the 95 box from the 
Aurora box, I can't even get short filenames, much less long ones, no matter 
whether I try to log onto a fat16 or a fat32 partition.  And, is it possible

From: bruce@os2box.omen.com.au

I can not answer the problem you have with 8.3 file names from Aurora, however 
I 
can say that you can use Aurora as a Win9x printserver.

I have an Epson 440 attached to my Aurora box with 4 Win95 and 98 boxes using
Aurora
as the printserver. Also my own OS/2 Warp 4 box uses Aurora at the
printserver. The only
glitch is I can never seem to get the Epson 440 to see the printer port in EPP 
mode even
though the BiDi driver is installed. That aside, no problems at all.

From: Michael Allison <mkaranks@sympatico.ca>

I am using warp 4 w/FP12 and tcpip 4.1 as a gateway (Injoy Firewall 1.2)
to Bell Canada's ADSL service for the past year (quite successfully) and
now am forced to deal with a change in protocol. The service has begun
switching to ppp over ethernet (PPPOE) and as usual, supported systems
are limited to win9x and mac. WinNT and Linux implementations have begun
to turn up, though not supported by Bell. Does anyone know of an OS/2
implementation of this protocol? If it does not exist, how difficult
would it be to port the Linux implementations? These questions are
coming from a non-programmer.

What I found was that if I disabled the boot PROM the message went
away.  You can do this by booting from a DOS diskette and running
3c90xcfg.exe on diskette 3 of the 4.01 drivers.  Then from the
configure menu you want to highlight the boot PROM option and disable

From: Lenny <lkaply@my-deja.com>

What I found was that if I disabled the boot PROM the message went
away.  You can do this by booting from a DOS diskette and running
3c90xcfg.exe on diskette 3 of the 4.01 drivers.  Then from the
configure menu you want to highlight the boot PROM option and disable
it.  That should do it.

        FX Communications of InJoy fame is in the process of writing a
PPPoE implimentation for OS/2. It isn't in the beta stage yet, but should
be in beta real soon now. At least that is the impression I have received
from FX. 

        You might want to contact FX Communications to see if you can get
on the beta team, I am sure that they would like to have as many people
as possible beat on their implementation. I have been asked if I would
beta test and I know of one other Toronto OS/2 User Group member that
has been asked to beta test as well.

        Right now I am using an NT 4 sp5 box to act as the NAT machine on
Sympatico HSE. I sure will be a much happier camper went I can go back to
OS/2 on that box.

        On another note, had I know what a hassel this PPPoE thing on
Sympatico was going to be I would never have ordered it when I moved out
of the Shaw cable area. I had Shaw Wave/@Home for a year. It was rock
solid, except for the time their server took a lightning hit! Very easy
to set up as well. To be expected when you stick to established standards
rather than some half baked proprietary software.

I'm not a ISO engineer by any stretch - but without a doubt, my
hardware's MTBF figures were severely altered during this P2P
install attempt - If I had half an ounce of OS/2 sense... I'da hit
Deja searching for "peer" & "os/2" & "screwed" *before* I undertook
what seemed like a routine install ...

I still don't know which or where the problem was - the first line in
my config.sys is/was a REM line, and nearly all the path statements
were over 255....

The "fix" was to backup my existing config.sys, copy the original
installation config.sys from C:\OS2\INSTALL, installed P2P, migrated
the changes back to my Config.Sys and applied the P2P CSD

It's up, it's running, and I think I'm still bleeding over this
electronic anurisim !!!  

Thanks again to all who e-mailed/responded with the help.

Is this right?

Destination IP: 150.203.0.0

What about individual IP addresses? What would the subnet mask be then?

Well through trial and error it works.

255.255.255.255 is the subnet mask for a single IP.

Subj: TCPIP 4.1 (WR_8610) and DB/2 search system...

From: alex@eddie.cis.uoguelph.ca (Alex Taylor)

I have a Warp 4 server at work which runs an application using DB/2 5.0...

Originally, TCP/IP was not installed on this machine (it's not needed
by the application), and every time the machine booted, when DB/2 started
I got a window saying (abridged): "TCPIP is not configured to support the
search system.  Run SNIFFLE /P to determine the problem..."

I ran sniffle /P which says the primary LAN interface is not configured
to use TCP/IP, and I should enable loopback.

OK, fair enough.  I installed TCP/IP from the Warp 4 CD, went into 
configuration, enabled loopback, and (after some experimenting), added
	127.0.0.1	localhost
to %ETC%\hosts.

This got rid of the message, and I was happy.


Then, I got the bright idea of applying the latest TCP/IP updates to
this machine, because it didn't have any (and we want it Y2K compliant).
I figured I'd install WR08610 and WR08620, because I've done that
successfully on several other machines.

As soon as I installed 8610, however, the error message came back.
I installed 8620 as well, and it remains.  "TCPIP is not configured to
run the search system, run SNIFFLE /P blah blah blah".

I run SNIFFLE /P, and it says that TCPIP is not enabled on my primary
network interface, so I need to either enable it there or enable the
loopback interface.

My configuration is precisely the same.  Loopback IS still enabled.
"localhost" is still in %ETC%\hosts.  I've carefully read NQREADME.TXT
as instructed, but all it says is to do what I've already done.

I've tried defining a hostname besides "localhost" in CONFIG.SYS, and
adding it as an alias to the hosts file.  With or without, makes no
difference.

I can only assume this is a bug related to applying the TCP/IP 4.1
updates.

My question is twofold:

(1) Anyone know how to fix this without backing out the updates?

(2) Anyone know a safe way to back out the updates?  8620 was applied
    using the CSF, with a backup, so that should be OK, but 8610 is
    a straight replacement of MPTS.  Would I have to uninstall MPTS
    completely, then re-install from the Warp CD?  (Then, presumably,
    apply some of the 84xx patches and hope I have better luck...)

Thanks...


Note - AFAIK, our application doesn't actually use or require the search
system, I just really want to get rid of this stupid error message.

Hmm..

Using MPTN8620, TCP/IP 4.1 (fixpack 1) and socks 5 server on a linux machine 
(not mine).

Everything works through this proxy server, irc, ftp, telnet etc. Except ICQ 
which uses UDP port 4000. Now Windows users using ICQ for windows say they can 

connect through this socks server. I only get timeout errors though (ICQ/2, 
ICQJava and licq). I tried different servers as well no luck.

Any suggestions?

OS/2's SOCKS support is at the v4 level, which doesn't support UDP.

You'll have to configure ICQ to use the SOCKS server.  ICQ/2 doesn't
support this yet, I believe.

The Java version does, however.  You need to go into Preferences, click on
the Connection tab, check off that you're using a firewall, and choose the
SOCKS5 setting from there.

It fails with this as well.. first thing I checked to see if the socks server 
was working.

Everything else seems to work fine though.

Subj: Re: Problems with SOCKS and ICQ..

From: Nathan Herren <greeneggsnspam@micron.net>

The problem may be related to Network Address Translation, if that's
what's implemented on the Linux proxy.

Frankly, I don't have much experience with NAT but was going to
implement it, researched it somewhat, and vaguely recalled that ICQ had
difficulties with it.  If everything else (other TCP/IP apps) works,
then I'd suspect the following:

8.0. NAT limitations

8.1. Applications with IP-address Content

   Not All applications lend themselves easily to address translation by
   NAT devices. Especially, the applications that carry IP address (and
   TU port, in case of NAPT) inside the payload. Application Level
   Gateways, or ALGs must be used to perform translations on packets
   pertaining to such applications. ALGs may optionally utilize address
   (and TU port) assignments made by NAT and perform translations
   specific to the application. The combination of NAT functionality and
   ALGs will not provide end-to-end security assured by IPsec.  However,
   tunnel mode IPsec can be accomplished with NAT router serving as
   tunnel end point.

   SNMP is one such application with address content in payload. NAT
   routers would not translate IP addresses within SNMP payloads. It is
   not uncommon for an SNMP specific ALG to reside on a NAT router to
   perform SNMP MIB translations proprietary to the private network.

8.2. Applications with inter-dependent control and data sessions

   NAT devices operate on the assumption that each session is
   independent.  Session characteristics like session orientation,
   source and destination IP addresses, session protocol, and source and
   destination transport level identifiers are determined independently
   at the start of each new session.

   However, there are applications such as H.323 that use one or more
   control sessions to set the characteristics of the follow-on sessions
   in their control session payload. Such applications require use of
   application specific ALGs that can interpret and translate the
   payload, if necessary. Payload interpretation would help NAT be
   prepared for the follow-on data sessions.

This info is out of an RFC.  The complete text is here
http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/htbin/rfc/rfc2663.html

I read somewhere (maybe on the ICQ homepage?) that ICQ has limitations
with NAT.  Of course, why it would work for your Windows users is beyond
me (then again, I could be wrong altogether :-) ).

Just tested out AIM Java to use socks.. it works (AIM Socks that is). I think 
AIM only uses socks 4 and TCP. Without internal socks support and using the
OS/2
Warp socks support works as well with AIM.

checking out netstat -s  

ICQ/2 tries to open a UDP port on the DNS server specifed in socks.env. I
tried 
3 different DNS servers and finally the one on the socks server itself.

Subj: Which version of Netscape for Warp 3?

From: thomasa@swu.ac.th

I am (still) using Warp v3 and WebExplorer.

However, I cannot access sites using frames or requiring cookies, so I'd like
to change to a Netscape browser.

Which version can I use?  IBM's site seems to say that Netscape Navigator 4.x
only works on Warp v4.  Is that right?

Thanks!

From: Colin Brace <cb@lim.nl>

Hello all,

I am in the process of rebuilding a system after a system crash and I
can't remember how to activate ftpd transaction logging.

I've got:

  ftpd -l

and 

  syslogd -t c:\mptn\etc\syslog.msg

running in the background, but this configuration only records logins and
logouts, not the full transaction log. What am I am forgetting? (I had
this working before.)

You did say that the gateway machine was running Linux, right?  Well,
Linux has IP masquerading built-in, which wouldn't have any problem with
UDP (my OS/2 masquerader even supports ICMP packets).

Aside from that, if a properly-configured ICQJava can't communicate
through the SOCKS5 server, then it's probably not configured to allow UDP
access.  I used the NEC SOCKS5 server on OS/2 before the InJoy gateway
program was available, and it did work with UDP (though too slowly to
allow a UDP-based game like Quake to function).

Subj: Warp Connect across subnets? 

From: thoman@verinet.com

I've added comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip to this, as the subject
matter is shifting a bit.  The thread originated in comp.os.os2.setup.misc
and this note is crossposted there.

In <kO0U3.18623$it.498573@news2.rdc1.on.home.com>, alex@eddie.cis.uoguelph.ca

        Naturally, it's in both.
        The glimpse of progress is this:  if I ignore the failures of
the requester to start during boot, I can use Dial Other Internet
Providers to dial into the LAN and then successfully start the
requester.  Clearly, the cleanup you (and an earlier poster) advise
looks promising.  I'm able to successfully run "LAN Server Logon",
so by all appearances I'm finding the domain controller and being
authenticated OK.

        Now comes my next little hurdle.  All of the resources I'd
like to connect to are on a different subnet than the one I dial
into.  Thus, I'd like to use commands like
   net use w: \\machine.somewhere.aroundhere.atwork\resourcename
to connect to shared directories.  However, Connect's NET USE
command finds dots (or total length?) distasteful.  The little 
graphical "connect to stuff" program won't allow any great number 
of characters in naming a resource to connect to.  In either case, 
it looks as if I would be allowed to connect only to things on the 
same subnet that I'm on.  Since that isn't what I want to do, life 
is tough.
        If I install an appropriate fixpak am I likely to obtain
a NET USE command that will let me work with stuff on other
subnets?  Am I just being ignorant and missing a capability
that's already here?  Which manual or URL or ... should I be
reading now?

No, it's not right (maybe they mean it is only _supported_ on Warp 4, 
becaus ethey would like you to upgrade). I have been able to use all 
of the following versions: 2.02, 4.04, 4.61. You may have to apply an 
appropriate fixpack, however (I'd say FP32 or higher).

Subj: Some printing over tcp/ip works/some gets black page

From: nospam@auerbachatunity.ncsu.edu

I run lprportd and lpd.  In my config.sys I have:

SET LPR_SERVER=152.1.xxx.xx
SET LPR_PRINTER=lp

(with actual numbers replacing the "x"'s, of course.)

In the printer object I have the right driver installed (HP4000N) and the
ports are LPT2 and \PIPE\LPD0.   When I print from my file manager
(DirMaster) the file prints just fine.  But when I print from Netscape or
Describe or AmiPro I get a black page.  Needless to say, my department
doesn't appreciate this use of toner.  Obviously my machine is talking to
the printer, and sometimes it prints.  What could be the problem?  (other
problem, much more minor:  how do I add a second remote printer?  I have its
IP number but obviously adding another SET statement to the config.sys isn't
going to do it.)

I've been trying without success for a while now to get IP Masquerading

when online the routing is not too good:

Subj: Bind 812a

From: Paul Lazaga <lazaga1@attglobal.net>

I installed Bind812a per what I believe are correct places for things. 
 After running ndc start i get a the named started message, but if i 
use ndc stop/stat or anything after that I get the indication that 
named is not running (no PID file).  When looking in the ETC directory 
the message is correct...no named.pid.

Previously I tried the Bind811a, while that would start fine it 
wouldn't stop.  The stopped message would appear after ndc stop, but 
if you used ndc start it would tell you that it is already running.

Any ideas on better placement of the files maybe or adjustment of the 
path statement (do the directories for bind need to go before or after 
something in the statement).

I dont think the ISDNpm masquerades traceroute.  At least I cannot traceroute

Subj: tcpip guru needed :)  - add SOCKS 5 support to OS/2

From: mohd.k.yusof@bohm.anu.edu.au (Khairil Yusof)

<long rant>

Well after a week of beating around the bush, I finally found out that OS/2's 
ADVANCED 32bit tcpip 4.1 stack is still at SOCKS 4 level and therefore does
not 
support udp packets through a socks 5 firewall.

This is a pity (for the moment).

It takes me 5 mins to download and setup a free socks5 client from 
http://www.hummingbird.com to socksify every windows application.

A bit more complicated with Linux.. but after editing some text config files, 
runsocks |application| allows you to use socks5 with almost any tcpip 
application too.

I was wondering if it was possible for somebody or a group of people with the 
knowledge to write something similar for OS/2? I think there is plenty of code 

out there for socks5 clients/servers.

eg. runsocks ftp

or something like the universal hummingbird client as a replacement for OS/2's 

socks4 support.

As there is not much demand for it (from the difficulty in getting responses
and
help).. I doubt this would happen.

Just wondering, why the universal network client would not support something
as 
commonplace as a socks5 client support?

Just a gripe.. since I've run into an OS/2 limitation (networking one at
that!) 
and I'm just frustrated. It's times like these I wish I could write code :( 

Does anybody know of an update to TCP/IP 4.1 by IBM to include socks5 support
in
the future?

Well maybe I'd be the only user out there wanting it.. but I'm willing to pay 
for it ($US 15-20).. 

Here's wishing for a solution in the future....

From: Michael W. Cocke <cocke@catherders.com>

I just finished setting up a DSL modem to our intranet using the Injoy 
Firewall(www.fx.dk).  If the hardware installation had gone as smoothly 
as setting up the firewall/NAT layer, I'd have been a lot happier.

A bit pricy, and the docs need some help, but it works with no problems
(after configuration) - which is one of the nicest things I can say 
about any software, and I get to say it WAY too rarely.

Well, I also discovered that the machine was TRAP E-ing consistently when
left along for more than about half an hour after applying the WR_86xx
updates.  So I bit the bullet, uninstalled and reinstalled MPTS from the
Warp 4 CD, then just applied the v40y2k patches and the UPM update.

Everything now seems to be working.  I just wonder why WR_86xx disagreed
with this machine so badly...

Oh, well.

Well I don't know whether WSEB is significant or not, but I have been
using ISDNPM with W4 on a 3 PC LAN here for over a year now without
problems. Each PC has full access to the internet via the one gateway
PC which has the ISDN card in it. The other PCs in the net multiboot to
various OS's and happily co-exist and use the connection simultaneously.

My only complaint is the lack of channel bundling, AKA Multilink PPP.

Can't comment on Internet Gate since I have never tried it.
