Re: PSPBoot 1.4.0.4 and linux

I got a an error running RRT under wine Installing vbrun60sp6.exe under wine kept failing with error messages about OLEAUT32.DLL, OLEPRO32.DLL, COMCAT.DLL and STDOLE2.TLB. I followed the recipe in http://publikumsbeschimpfung.blogspot.com/2010/04/install-vbrun60sp6exe-in-wine.html , but also rename...

Re: PSPBoot 1.4.0.4 and linux

I got a an error running RRT under wine (permission to run ping - surely it doesn't need sudo?) This is a known problem... fix it with sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /usr/bin/wine-preloader (and reading about the capabilities feature has stopped me needing to run wireshark as root after all these year...

Re: PSPBoot 1.4.0.4 and linux

However, I'm curious - don't you get the line-at-a-time/3-line-reply wierdness with tnftp on 9.04? I was under the impression this was an ftp client issue, independent of the tcp stack problem. No, I can't say that I've ever seen that problem, and I have used all versions of Adam2 and pspboot. What...

Re: PSPBoot 1.4.0.4 and linux

Interesting journey! While I can't solve your problem, I have a number of comments: 1. You should set your serial line to 38.4k baud setenv MODETTY0 38400,n,8,1,hw setenv MODETTY1 38400,n,8,1,hw That worked a treat! I had wrongly assumed the serial port speed was hardware-limited to 9600, which sol...

PSPBoot 1.4.0.4 and linux

I think I am documenting a dead-end, but I hope it will save others wasting a lot of time, or perhaps save the time of someone more talented than me... I use linux for everything - my only windows system is a virtual machine image of a scrapped laptop that ran xp years ago. I've used RouterTech on S...

Re: Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

With regard to RT_cmd_x, you can have as many as your bootloader env will permit. The env space is 10kb. For the adam2 bootloader, it has a simple structure: 80 variables of 128 bytes each. For the psp bootloader, it is more complex - i.e., the lengths and numbers of variables don't seem to be fixe...

logging iptables events

I have written some iptables rules under 2.91.1 (discussed in another post). I have successfully set up remote logging to one of my servers. The logging settings are all "notice", except user events, which are "info". If I telnet into the router, and issue the following commands: logger test message...

Re: Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

This can be enabled with "/usr/local/bin/localnat.sh". Have a look at it. It will make more sense to you than it makes to me. I've looked at the script, and also the link it references - http://www.netfilter.org/documentation/HOWTO/NAT-HOWTO-10.html. It seems to be addressing a subtle NAT issue tha...

Re: Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

You may have a problem with iptables rules for the WAN using RT_cmd_x functions because the ppp0 interface may not exist until the DSL connects. It may be better to hook into the ppp_ip_up script or OnConnect WAN. I'm still surprised the firewall not set up correctly in "no-nat" setup as it should ...

Re: pppd arguments

I've been running RouterTech_3.6.0D_20090922_2.91.1 on my production service for 2 weeks. My ADSL link has been very stable and the ppp link hasn't hung once. I conclude the keep alive LCP messages prevent my service provider's ppp server from forgetting the session.

Re: Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

The stuff about NAT, etc., is all gobbledegook to me. I only intervened with "no local NAT" because what you described was a typical example of the problems that surface when local NAT is not enabled. This can be enabled with "/usr/local/bin/localnat.sh". Have a look at it. It will make more sense ...

Re: Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

I am not a networking expert, so I can't comment on many of the things that you've raised - but I will comment on what I can When I telnet to the routerTech LAN address on port 80 from somewhere else on the internet, I get a connection from the web server. This is NOT what I want to happen - I don'...

Firewall config for a static internet LAN subnet

I have a solwise sar-600er running RouterTech_3.6.0D_20090922_2.91.1_AR7RD-4Ports_psbl_firmware.upgrade.img. I have statically configured the LAN for my internet-addressable subnet. The router's own LAN interface br0 has an address within this subnet, which all my internet-facing systems use as thei...

Re: pppd arguments

You can see the full pppd cmdline, without spaces using /var # cat /proc/761/cmdline where 761 is replaced by your pppd process ID That did the trick nicely, thanks. I found "lcp-echo-failure9lcp-echo-interval60" at the end of the command line, so I am satisfied at last. Because the LCP echos were ...

Re: pppd arguments

Bug, or feature (which ever one suits). This is controlled by the core log, for which we have no sources, so we are stuck with that behaviour.<snip> So far, we have chosen to keep "ps aux" supported, although the other parameters are largely ignored at the moment. There is a price to pay for suppor...
