I have a DSL brodband connection. The internet connectivity was working fine but lately, I am am facing problems while connecting to internet.Upn connecting the cable to the eth0, the /var/log/messages shows repeated instances of:"kernel:corrupted packets received"Also, if i use pppoe-dicovery, I get " Timeout Waiting for PADO packets" error.There is nothing wrong with the cable. If I connect the cable to a windo$s xp laptop, internet connects fine without any problems.Any idea what could be going wrong? Since the internet was working fine earlier on my opensuse box, im not sure what could have gone wrong with the settings.
My LAN has 2 PCs installed, Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows XP. I run the server on Ubuntu, and client on Windows XP. Because I am doing stress test, so the client will keep sending tons of packets to server.
The strange thing is: After few seconds, the client program crash because of insufficient network buffer, the server is still ok. But after that I cant connect Ubuntu PC anymore until I restart it. And I check the router, the led for the Ubuntu PC is always ON (not blinking), look like it is jam already.
I am new to Ubuntu almost installed it after windows showed blue screen 4 ever n ever. However after installing ubuntu whenever I log in windows it doesnt detect any network connection but when I use Ubuntu it automatically does can it be that Ubuntu is causing any problem? And how to check how many packets are being sent and received through my wired network and do I have to install any drivers for my modem in Ubuntu.
I keep finding packets that appear to be whois on port 44. they appear to originate from me to whois.arin.net (2 packets each time) and 199.212.0.43 (also 2 packets each time) when I put 199.212.0.43 in the URL box it says "Failure To Connect To Web Server". when I whois it it says:
Quote:
Available at [url] And yes, I did get the same packets when I used whois. Why is my computer randomly whoising stuff?
where packets are stored when they're received. After some googling, I think perhaps libpcap with mmap would be the solution. Does libpcap 1.0 and above support mmap?From my understanding, mmap would allow me to directly access the buffer without having to explicitly copy the packet to another buffer for me to do processing. I would also appreciate it if someone can let me know where I can find examples of such applications, as many examples of mmap I've found involves mapping a buffer for file operations, rather than integrating it with pcap functions like pcap_loop, pcap_next_ex etc.
i made a video and i wanted to put it on my myspace(video upload) and it justs fade to grey and becomes unresponive. that it goes back to normal but no progress. so then i tried going to image shack and uploading a picture. can't do that either. tried mediafire, videos, vimeo, nothing.
so i tried on my desktop(desktop running 9.10 32 bit. laptop(the first one i tried) running 9.10 64 bit. it didn't work on that either. i know it's not my isp because it works on my ps3(no ubuntu). not my firewall and tried without without my router. didn't work either. i tried upgrading flash on both of them and on my desktop i can upload some pictures to imageshack now. nothing else though. i have tried using both firefox and opera.
i pinged yahoo and this is what i got:
6 packets transmitted, 6 received, 0% packet loss, time 5007ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 72.732/73.437/75.024/0.761 ms
I have a 3G modem (Sierra Compass 885). When I attached it on my openSuse 11.2, the Network Manager has deteced it. After that, using Network Manager, I configure the connection by filling the Dial number, Username, Password, and IPN. When I click OK the connection status always says "Waiting for authorization" and never connected.
I have a problem: when I log in with my account NetworkManager doesn't connect to my home WiFi connection, cause it wait for authorization. No change if I try to retype the connection password, it still wait for authorization!
I would like to get my Huawei E169 (aka. Vodafone Mobile Connect K3520, E620 etc.) USB UMTS/3G modem running with my openSUSE 11.1 x86 installation on my MSI Wind U100. The GPRS/UMTS connection works perfectly fine with the stand-alone application Vodafone Mobile Connect for Linux. However, there's the drawback that this app overwrites /etc/resolv.conf (leads to DNS issues if I would like to connect via NetworkManager again) and doesn't disable the off-line mode for Firefox automatically. Consequently, I would like to use NetworkManager for the GPRS/UMTS connection, too.
The NetworkManager configuration dialogue (I'm using the GNOME applet) seems to recognize the plugged USB stick without any issues (I get a radio button for "Huawei E620 USB Modem" in the respective add connection wizard). So I've created the configuration for my provider and saved it. After that I've tried to connect via the applet. However, approx. 2 seconds after I selected the connection, the applet says "Network disconnected" (German: Netzwerkverbindung getrennt) and the stick also obviously doesn't get connected (visible via LED). I created several new connections with different names, replugged the stick, rebooted with and without the stick plugged, but without any success. I also installed the special RPM package which is recommended in Huawei UMTS USB Stick - openSUSE, but - of course - the corresponding 11.1 package. I also used the application manually and got the following result: Looking up for HUAWEI modem and switching modem to BBO 06
[Code]....
Can this time out of the serial command be the reason for the unsuccessful connection? And if yes, how can I force the system to wait longer here? Moreover, I'm wondering, that the GNOME NetworkManager applet doesn't allow me to enter the DNS entries for my GPRS/UMTS connection. Where can I add these entries manually or is that not needed?
I have a problem with trying to connect to VPN over linux. From OSX and Windows the VPN connection goes through fine. It was working flawlessly, for the last one month I never used the laptop or the VPN, however after booting recently 1 week ago the VPN always show as timedout. Some details about the vpn / pptp connection details:
I thought I would give Linux a try so I installed Opensuse 11.3.
I used the automatic setup and accepted all default settings on a new HD. At end of installation I clicked Firefox and received a "no server" message.
The only info I found was in KDE Chapt. 17 by Lauri Watts. She says that if I have IP, gateway, submask, and dns numbers, Internet connection is easy but she tells nothing about using the numbers. I have those numbers.
How do I get online?
I have a no-proxy, static service.
Why-oh-why-oh-why would an installation end without an online connection? Or at least easy-to-find instructions to get online?
I had to disconnect the new Linux HD and connect to this old Windows HD to contact you.
im on node1 when i type the command ssh node2@ip the terminal hangs up a bit then an error message stating that connection timeout but here is a thing: i cant ping to node2 but i can terminate the ping manually using ctrl+c when i terminate the ping usual message appears stating 10 packets transmitted, 100% loss
ps: when i go to node3 and ssh to node2 it works fine and also i can ping from node3 to node2 very fine. and the firewalls are down at all nodes -all wired connection over a switch
I set the default os to boot as windows 7 with a timeout of 1 second. I thought that this would be enough time to switch os ubuntu when i need to, but I am unable to. How can i reset the timeout to 3 seconds? I also cannot view the ubuntu partition within windows because of ubuntu's file system.
i have a linux server runnig oracle applications. i need to access this server from putty using ssh through internet. i did by registering my static ip with the dnydns.org and i am able to connect to the server. but now there is no security to authenticate any user as any one knowing the password can login to it.
i thought of configuring the firewall of linux server but the client ip`s are not static and they change continiously. so thought of keeping one more pc between the server and the router which will do the work of authenticating. but i am confuse as how to configure it to allow the packets coming from the internet after authenticating and to by pass the packets generated from internal LAN?
I created a similar thread last week in the networking section but only got one response. I was hoping to get a little more help here as this forum helped me tremendously to partition my hard drive safely. That was over a week ago, and ever since then I have been struggling with setting up my network. Here is what I have done.Basic set up with netconfig. I selected DHCP and followed the directions on the screen.ifconfig -a shows eth0 with no RX or TX packets at all, but at least it showed me information. If it was not detecting my card (which is compatible with linux), it would have said no device found. correct?
dhclient eth0 just hangs there for half a minute until I can add a command again.dhcpcd eth0 times out.I read (in slackbook chaper 5.2.1) that the correct kernel module may not be loaded. So I opened rc.modules with pico and went to the netdevice section. In slackbook it said to find my device and uncomment it.... but I cant find it! (I have an atheros ar9285 in my stock compaq CQ61 laptop) I also opened rc.netdevice and it was empty..It seems like the more I learn about the network, the more lost I get. I keep hearing that configuring a network on slackware is easy, am I just missing some simple step?Also, whenever I startx, akonadi gives me an error. I also get another error saying that it could not parse XMS file. Is that just due to my lack of an internet connection at the moment?
My local area network is always time out for few seconds.I have check my memory with "free -m"There are still left 200+ mb left.I am hosting my own ubuntu server, and I share the same internet line with my server and pc. when I access to LAN, I need to type 192.168.2.2, at outside I can access to [URL]It is only the LAN access timeout, but when I access at outside, I didn't face this problem at all.
I am not a networking expert by any means (in fact I have never taken a networking course), but I have taken several security courses, and generally we wind up discussing replay attacks. For example, the Needham-Schroeder protocol (using symmetric-key cryptography anyway) is flawed because it allows for replay attacks, and I understand why.
I guess my question is actually how someone would perform a replay attack. I know I can sniff network traffic by downloading wireshark. I also have downloaded winpcap and npg on my WinXP virtual machine. I'm trying to use this guide to help me, but I'm quite lost:[URL]What I did was to post a "link" to my facebook profile and I sniffed the traffic using wireshark. What I would ultimately like to accomplish is to copy that packet out of the wireshark output, and then use a tool like npg to transfer the raw packet back to facebook, which should result in a second, redundant post. I just can't figure out how to do that.
I'm pretty sure this should be possible. Facebook only uses an SSL session for authentication during login. After that, the information is just sent in the clear, so I'm pretty sure this should be possible.Can anyone explain how to do such a thing? It would really help my research paper that I'm working on this semester if you can. As of right now the attack we are trying to demonstrate/defend against is using a Windows VM, which is why I'm using winpcap/npg. The attack is actually possible using just about any OS (depending on the exploit used), but our POC is Windows only at the moment
I'm using madwifi linux driver (ath1) in monitor mode to capture some wireless traffic. I can see that all wireless traffic is coming well through the wireless interface (checked using TCPDUMP). What I want to know is how I can forward the captured wireless packets to a different Ethernet interface (e.g. eth2) in the same machine to send those captured packet out to a different computer.
I set 1 for /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
for iptables, I tried this rule: iptables -A FORWARD -i ath1 -o eth2 -j ACCEPT
However, I coudn't read any packet from eth2 via TCPDUMP.
I am running into trouble while trying to set-up a iptables routing policy. I have two machines on the same sub-network (xxx.xxx.153.0). One of the machines is used as a default gw for the other (xxx.xxx.153.250 is a gateway for xxx.xxx.153.142 and xxx.xxx.153.254 is a gw for xxx.xxx.153.250). There is no explanation for why the xxx.xxx.153.250 is in the middle -- xxx.xxx.153.142 can go straight to xxx.xxx.153.254, but is is like that for now.I am trying to find an iptable rule to be executed on the xxx.xxx.153.250 machine to route the packets.
I am using vnuml to test a network project. I have one Ethernet card on my ubuntu 9.10( eth0) with network 10.1.0.0/16, and creating a tap0 with subnet 10.4.0.0/16. Now the problem is how to work them together, such that packets from one interface goes to other one?
I have users using Windows XP, Windows 7, Linux (Fedora) and Mac. They all are in a single private network and all access internet through a Linux (RHEL5) system in which Squid acts as gateway. The same is true with my branch offices too except that private network is different and gateway system uses Fedora 9 instead of RHEL5. All the branch offices are connected through point to point leased lines with the head office for file transfer.
My requirement is this: I have a web server located at head office. Presently I am able to access this server from my branch offices through internet. I would like to access this server from branch offices through leased lines. This too I am able to access if I do routing in users system. The file transfer is taking place through one to one system at two ends by creating static routing in those systems.
I'm looking for an open source/free network emulator tool that I could use on Mac OS X, to simulate a slow network connection, limited bandwidth and other network characteristics such as dropped packets etc for both UDP/TCP connections (or even on the physical layer).
I'm looking for the simplest solution that would allow me to run TCP/UDP servers and have a few clients connect to them on localhost emulating various network connections. I'm mainly wondering if I can use something like Linux's netem on Mac OS X (or even better cross-platform Windows/Linux/Mac). Perhaps I can run VirtualBox and a Linux kernel running netem, has anyone had luck with that?[URL]...
I have a small network with 4 users, a Win2003 server for LAN/security functions, and a Dell Blade server running Ubuntu 8.04.1 which runs as our web server on port 80. I manage the Ubuntu server with Webmin v1.42Yesterday, my users weren't able to access the internet nor were they able to receive mail, etc. and no one could access any of the website hosted on the webserver. However, the internal users could access each other's PCs and internal printers and devices - just nothing outside.
I began to troubleshoot: I could see a lot of activity on the Router/Firewall on the port connected to the Ubuntu server. When I unplugged the server, everyone could immedately connect to the internet. So, the problem was originating with that server.When I logged in to the Ubuntu server using Webmin, I checked System>Running Processes and right at the top of the list was the process:ID Owner CPU Command23184 www-data 98.1% ./s 174.120.164.186 7777When I drilled down on this process it said that the parent process was:/bin/sh -c ./s 174.120.164.186 7777I pressed the Trace Process button and it appears to be sending the following repeatedly:Time System Call Parameters Returnxxxx send 125,0123456789ABCDE,15,0 15So, I manually Killed the process and added a rule to my firewall/router to block an IP range that includes 174:120:164:186
A few hours later the same process stars again in Ubuntu,, effectively plugging up my pipeline to the internet and preventing access to the websites being hosted.It suspect that there is some kind of virus on my Ubuntu machine but have no idea how to locate and destroy it. I am relatively new to the Ubuntu world and would appreciate anyone's help immensely! I just don't know what to do!
I'm sniffing network packets in ubuntu, I need to write these packets as raw bytes to memory but libpcap give packets in its special format. how can i save and recover packets in byte format?
