Networking :: How To Create A Proxy Connection, Wvdial
May 5, 2010
What I want to do is to share the internet connected to a computer with a telephone, over another telephone which is permanently connected to the pc.The thing is, that some guys found a way of making this on windows, in fact, I already set it up on xp and works like a charm, it involves configuring in a certain way the telephone, and to use 2 programs. One is CCProxy, which redirects the internet connection to the telephone, and another one, which updates the IP adress of the telephone connection to dyndns, so that I can put that adress on my second telephone as proxy, and this way, surf on the net through my home internet on the telephone anywhere. Tricky right?
Now, the thing is I don't like at all booting windows only for sharing internet with my telephone. So I want to do it in linux. I use Ubuntu and Puppy linux home.I tried setting up the connection to the modem with wvdial, and... I got connected! But hey, when I connect to the telephone, I lost my internet connection (main, cable based, the pc connection) :-S. I mean, somehow, the "active" connection for the browsers and all the internet programs is now the connection I have made with my telephone, which is plugged to the computer.Now my objective here is that NO CHANGE of active connections get done when I start the connection to the phone, and then, get a program like CCProxy, and a dyndns updater for sharing the internet connection on the pc, to the connection made on the telephone-modem wired to the computer.

I'm a network administrator and I have to cut the internet access to some network users. I would like to do that by installing a proxy server on a F10/F11/F12.

When connecting to the internet in Ubuntu 10.04 with an external USB dialup modem, using a terminal and sudo wvdial command, is there a command or some way that will show the modem connection speed?
I checked similar threads, but they don't appear to involve finding dialup modem speeds.

I use tata docomo as my carrier. I have activated GPRS and many people say that it works perfectly on a laptop with Windows. But I don't use windows. My service provider has not provided us with a username and a password. It works fine without these on the mobile and a laptop with windows. But when I use it on ubuntu 9.10 with wvdial, it exits saying required username and password. How do I overcome this problem.

We have two offices suppose A and B. At office A, we use centos 5.3 computer as router and squid proxy server. At office B we use a cisco router to connect to Internet. Computers at office A that has direct access to Internet can access computers behind cisco router at office B using vnc viewer. But computers at office A that can use internet only through squid proxy can't access computers behind cisco router at office B. Is there any way so that I could allow squid clients to access computer behind cisco router at office B using vnc viewer.

I use ssh to port forward my browser(firefox) using SOCKS to a "server"(ubuntu desktop with ssh ) I have in the UK, to watch iplayer etc wen traveling... I forward port 1024 (default port for SOCKS? **mite b untrue..). the "server" is running ubuntu 11.04.
could i set up a transparent proxy(squid) on the "server" in the hope tht it speeds up the connection etc... my thot was get squid to listen on port 1024, or set up the ssh port forwarding to the squid port... would tht work? is the a better/different way to do it? the issue is tht sometimes the ssh connection can b slow at times

I am working on fc10. I connect to internet using two connections: with proxy and without proxy. Initially I had some problem in configuring yum for proxy and I resolved it by creating files proxy.sh and proxy.csh in /etc/profile.d with the required details (export_proxy).Now when I connect to my connection without proxy I have some problems .Whenever I try to do yum update I get the following error:
"[URL]: [Errno 12] Timeout: <urlopen error timed out> Trying other mirror. Error: failure: repodata/primary.xml.gz from adobe-linux-i386: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try." what changes do I need to make in order to use yum in the connection without proxy?

I just removed ubuntu-desktop in favor of kubuntu-desktop. Now I can't create an ad-hoc wifi connection however hard I tried from network-manager. It simply is not visible to other PCs. And when some connection is created on another ubuntu PC, I can't connect to it.. I switched NM off and tried the CLI way.

Under DSL tab in network connection we can create DSL connections, but they only allow wired connections(eth0). I need to connect using wireless connection(wlan0). I migrated to Ubuntu recently. With windows I was able to connect with wireless connection. I'm sure there is a way to achieve this in Ubuntu as well.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 (using since 9.10)

I have just taken on a dedicated server sitting somewhere in Norfolk. I have created a website that uses PHP to connect to another remote server in order to interrogate a MSSQL database. This script, running on Apache, uses a VPN connection to connect to the remote server.To test, I have Apache on my laptop at home and just used Microsoft Network Connection to create the VPN connection.I have now uploaded this site to my new CentOS server and need to create the same VPN connection. I understand this is a command level and have been advised to use OpenVPN which I have successfully installed.My problem is I only have the details remote ip address, username and password. I believe I have to use the 'client.conf' script instead of server.conf.

I am running Fedora 13 Gnome. When I try to create a VPN connection using Network Manager (vpnc) it says that it cannot save the connection and exits out. I can provide other information if necessary.

Just replaced a working install of Ubuntu because i like GS over unity but i cant get my USB760 EVDO card to work. The usual fix of editing the cd.rules file and copying some information into modem.fdi does not seem to work on F15..
Also, noticed that when i attempt to create a broadband connection using network manager it allows me to go through all of the setup dialogs, but never actually adds the broadband connection.

I post here wanting to know if it's Possible to run wvdial as soon as linux detects USB modem.I have already installed and done the setting for using wvdial. I can successfully use wvdial command to setup internet connection.But I have only 1 USB modem. When my wife wants to use it for her PC, she disconnects it from my linux machine.What I want to do now is... 1 that when I attatch the USB back to my linux, I'd want it to do "wvdial &" automatically.2 that when linux is rebooted, "wvdial &" done automatically as soon as it detects USB modem.

I already had solved the problem [URL].. but after several yum updates it has appeared again. Within the script "/etc/ppp/ip-up" the sixth parameter isn't provided. But the sixth parameter should be "ppp0" (in this case). The script sets it into the variable $LOGDEVICE and passes it as first parameter to annother script. Successfully I had patched "/etc/ppp/ip-up". I would like to report a bug but I'm not sure if it is a wvdial or a ppp/pppd or a Fedora 14 bug.
Now (after several yum patch updates) my patched /etc/ppp/ip-up doesn't help anymore. The registration at the mobile phone provider seems to be ok but the internet connection isn't initialized.
According the man pages wvdial starts ppp or pppd and one of them seems to call /etc/ppp/ip-up. At which point in the subprocessed scripts (under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/) I didn't find out yet.

I've Alcatel X220 cellular modem and I'm connecting via wvdial (Is there anyone who know how do I connect via NetworkManager?). when I'm connecting via the wvdial Evolution and pidgin won't connect to the internet. It's look like they like the NetworkManager and won't connect via other way.

Using Centos 5.4 I've successfully set up pppd and wvdial to automatically dial out but I need wvdial to call an alternative number if the number is busy or dialout fails for some other reason and I cannot get this to work. I've gone back to basics and tried manually soliciting wvdial with a minimal wvdial.conf:
[Dialer ppp-client]
Password = secret
Modem = /dev/ttyS1
Phone = 11111111111
Phone1 = 22222222222
[Code]...

My resolv.conf states:
No nameservers found; Try putting DNS servers into your ifcfg files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts like so: [...]
After running wvdial. I suppose I have to create a file ifcfg-ppp0, but what does it have to contain in order to automatically grep the DNS servers from wvdial?
In Ubuntu, it works just fine, just that I don't have an Ubuntu installation anymore.
