00:01.32 | murb | nmap isn't the first thing i'd try if i had a routing problem... |
00:01.59 | murb | and ip |
00:02.03 | Leeds | ping? |
00:02.06 | dankolb | And a pencil and paper :) |
00:02.12 | murb | arping |
00:02.16 | Leeds | xscreensaver |
00:02.22 | murb | xbill. |
00:02.31 | skugg | enough! |
00:02.32 | skugg | :) |
00:02.40 | dankolb | ip doesn't exist on OS X - traceroute and route do |
00:02.53 | murb | dankolb: cool no ip. |
00:03.02 | murb | i always wander an modern OS without that. |
00:03.03 | BorgBaby | route & ping should help |
00:03.08 | murb | s/wander/wanted/ |
00:03.16 | dankolb | What does 'ip' do? |
00:03.24 | murb | dankolb: presuably it as altq etc? |
00:03.39 | murb | dankolb: ip allows you to add routes and change routes and stuff |
00:03.46 | murb | and also change arp tables etc |
00:03.54 | dankolb | Ah right. |
00:03.56 | murb | and is a replacement for ifconfig route etc |
00:04.07 | dankolb | Ah okay. |
00:04.08 | dankolb | Why? |
00:04.27 | skugg | new and interesting problems develop... |
00:04.29 | skugg | :) |
00:04.32 | murb | so you can bring an interface up with it add an ip address to an interface e.g. ip addr add 23.3.2.3.3/32 dev eth3 brd + etc |
00:04.54 | murb | well because route can't see the other routes the route cache etc |
00:05.09 | dankolb | ifconfig will bring an interface up |
00:05.30 | BorgBaby | and will give it an address |
00:05.32 | dankolb | 'netstat -rn' |
00:06.40 | Davilion | ahh the power of the internet, i can see the people on the same physical network via the the big bad internet but not on my local notwork |
00:06.45 | murb | dankolb: how do you add multiple ip addreseses to an interface with ifconfig not using alias interfaces? |
00:06.53 | murb | oh and multiple routing tables are useful |
00:07.04 | Leeds | because Wheel NT [TM] is faster, rounder and smoother than any other wheel! Only compatible with the Microsoft Axel [TM] |
00:07.12 | murb | e.g. ip rule add from eth3 src 23.23.23/23 table 33 |
00:07.25 | murb | then ip route add 23.23.5.45/23 table 33 |
00:07.26 | dankolb | What's wrong with alias interfaces? |
00:07.29 | murb | etc . |
00:07.43 | dankolb | How useful are multiple routing tables in real life? |
00:07.46 | Leeds | there's also a whole bunch of rule-based stuff you can do with ip... |
00:07.58 | murb | dankolb: useful if you have different ip addresses from different upstreams |
00:08.10 | murb | e.g try host relay-0.inl.lu |
00:08.10 | dankolb | Fair enough |
00:08.32 | dankolb | Two different IP addresses |
00:09.29 | Leeds | you can do things like prioritise traffic from certain hosts depending on the time of day (e.g. prefer your network backup stuff overnight?) |
00:09.48 | murb | Leeds: you probably want to run BGP4 for that |
00:09.48 | dankolb | Ah right. |
00:10.05 | Leeds | murb: over a private link? |
00:10.21 | dankolb | Oh, as an aside, has anyone noticed we've lost Sudhir off the mailing list |
00:10.22 | Leeds | I just read the traffic-shaping HOWTO :-) |
00:10.32 | murb | Leeds: I was thinking external policy |
00:10.48 | dankolb | Traffic-shaping. Sounds like something Ken Livingstone is trying to do |
00:10.51 | murb | who was Sudhir? |
00:11.07 | Leeds | murb: the accountant/troll on the mailing list |
00:11.44 | Leeds | very touchy guy - but very sure of his opinions |
00:11.50 | dankolb | Ah. |
00:11.54 | dankolb | BT's about to disconnect me |
00:11.59 | dankolb | I think I'll call it a night |
00:12.03 | dankolb | 'night all - see you on Sunday |
00:12.20 | BorgBaby | see you later dankolb |
00:14.55 | murb | Leeds: don't we have quite a few trolls on the list? |
00:17.01 | Leeds | not real trolls, no |
00:23.46 | Leeds | and I actually think Sudhir isn't a real troll, just a prime prat |

17:10.21 | murb | i wasin't in town. |
17:10.29 | murb | he didn't phone. |
17:10.47 | murb | I woke up toolate and went to high wycombe at 1400 |
17:11.17 | murb | then ended up buying a new coat in Amersham, 'cos blacks seemed overpriced. |
17:11.56 | skugg | oh. |
17:12.09 | skugg | well, he left here about 06:30 this morning... :) |
17:12.42 | murb | well that would have been very opptomistic of him to have expected me to have been at the office any time near that. |
17:12.57 | murb | are you near wembley statdium station? |
17:13.56 | skugg | not _very_ distant |
17:14.04 | skugg | i'm at north wembley... |

17:18.00 | skugg | oh well, I think I have to do some work now |
17:18.07 | skugg | will be back later |
17:19.51 | murb | but you're a student, work? |
17:21.11 | skugg | course/project work. |
17:21.37 | skugg | i'm supposed to present a time-schedule to my supervisor on monday |
17:21.56 | skugg | i've not got a clue how to do it, although i've had almost 3 weeks now... |
17:22.23 | murb | skugg: their probably aren't very many marks for the schedule are their? |
17:22.38 | murb | I laughed at my tutor when he asked for a gant chart. |
17:22.41 | skugg | murb, correct. |
17:22.57 | skugg | murb, he's not demanding a gannt chart, luckily. |

17:25.51 | murb | you meant to say bye? |
17:25.59 | formi | does anybody know if 3com pcmcia cards use non-standard dongles? |
17:27.09 | formi | im trying to install freebsd on a laptop |
17:27.48 | formi | and it recognizes the card but that is it, the dongle im using is from another card |
17:30.36 | murb | there is no such things as far as i've seen as a standard pcmcia network/modem dongle even with the soame manufactorier and everything, i have loads of cards at home and at work without dongles :( |
17:30.44 | murb | or with broken ones. |
17:31.52 | skugg | yeah, lose the dongle == buy a new card is what i've heard. |
17:32.16 | formi | its working |
17:32.18 | formi | haha |
17:33.03 | formi | i was trying the wrong memory range, with other card |
17:33.56 | formi | what is odd is the transfer rate is only 200kb/s when usually is 600kb/s |
17:36.10 | formi | well if somebody wants a 3C589, now is your chance |

17:38.30 | formi | oddly enough when getting the dhcp lease, freebsd took the server hostname instead of tp.localdomain |
17:40.54 | formi | and more oddly fbsd recognized the pcmcia bridge when linux didn't |

22:34.45 | mazogs | i never get scared |
22:34.48 | mazogs | :-) |
22:34.59 | highbury | as you may have seen by the updated topic, we've just had the proposed dates confirmed my Westminister Uni. |
22:36.03 | mazogs | i'll be there! i'm wondering which work will i have then.... |
22:36.24 | mazogs | and if it allows me to go! |
22:36.55 | mazogs | it will be Saturday |
22:37.42 | mazogs | yesterday i passed in front of your University |
22:39.39 | murb | well skuggs |
22:41.13 | mazogs | oh, i thought that scared was something like angry! |

22:41.44 | mazogs | now that i've seen it in the dictionary, it's not true that i never get scared!! ;-) |
22:41.46 | murb | scared is like afraid. |
22:41.57 | murb | mazogs: you brave person |
22:42.07 | mazogs | yes! |
22:42.28 | davilion | mazogs: im not sure what the translation is but i would say 'take everything on the gllug list with a pinch of salt' |
22:42.48 | mazogs | ok ok |
22:43.11 | murb | davilion: expect for all the truth. |
22:43.17 | mazogs | toma todo lo de la lista gllug con una pizca de sal, i suppose |
22:48.07 | mazogs | am i the first Spaniard in GLLUG? |
22:48.21 | murb | we already have at least 2 |
22:48.38 | mazogs | great for me! |
22:49.04 | murb | well someone got in trouble the other day for refering to galician as a dialect |
22:49.10 | mazogs | althought i think it doesn't matter too much from where members are! |
22:49.31 | murb | well, you've not met them so... |
22:49.46 | mazogs | i really don't know if it is... |
22:50.15 | mazogs | is it? |
22:50.30 | mazogs | or the question was left in the air? |
22:52.18 | mazogs | from where i come, Valencia, people also like to discuss if Valencian is dialect or not... |
22:52.51 | mazogs | but i don't know enough to talk about this |
22:56.43 | murb | i think we had this the other evening, to be a language you need an army and a navy |
22:58.12 | mazogs | what a strange conclusion... |
22:58.34 | mazogs | languages existed before armys and navys i think |
22:58.44 | mazogs | and the same for dialects |
22:59.01 | mazogs | imho, you know |
23:01.24 | mazogs | excuse me if i'm too curious, but how did the question began? |
23:03.26 | murb | mazogs: it is a quote read the logs for the refernces |
23:03.33 | skugg | eh. the argument of having to have an army to be a language sounds bogus to me. india have over 800 registered languages, but i doubt they have 800 registered armies. |
23:03.43 | davilion | hi skugg sleep well? |
23:03.45 | skugg | a well |
23:03.48 | skugg | davilion, yep. |
23:04.04 | skugg | got up about 14 :) |
23:04.05 | davilion | i just woke up a couple of hours ago, didnt get in till 9am |
23:04.20 | *** join/#gllug mazzogs (~juan@host62-7-40-246.in-addr.btopenworld.com) |
23:04.25 | skugg | heh. |
23:04.28 | murb | skugg: no it is the difference between a language and a dialect |
23:04.32 | skugg | no sleep for you tonight then? |
23:04.34 | mazzogs | ooops! |
23:04.35 | davilion | so much for going to bodyworlds/glasgow |
23:04.51 | mazzogs | here i am again |
23:04.51 | davilion | skugg: no, im goign to be up late again. im in two minds to go home now, or wait until tommorow morning |
23:05.06 | mazzogs | mazogs account is hanged |
23:05.18 | skugg | davilion, two wrongs make a right? :) |
23:05.53 | davilion | if i go now, i can be home in 3 hours if i plug my radar detector in. but i run the risk of getting stuck somewhere, or being too tired to drive,. as where if i leave it till the morning it will take me 6 hours |
23:06.02 | mazzogs | excuse me if i'm too curious, but how did the cusetion began? |
23:06.26 | skugg | mazzogs, which of them? :) |
23:06.51 | mazzogs | well, the one of galician being a dialect or not.... |
23:06.51 | skugg | davilion, hm. lose/lose situation then. |
23:07.18 | davilion | yeah |
23:07.20 | murb | ask formi |
23:07.21 | davilion | im thinking tommorow |
23:07.35 | davilion | that way i can stay up on irc and just be a wreck tommorow evening |
23:07.43 | murb | he'll probably blame me or sothing, but ask anyway |
23:07.54 | murb | whereis davilian? |
23:07.57 | davilion | i already blew my date off for tonight so i've got nothing to gain by going now. |
23:08.13 | davilion | murb: right now im in leamington spa, im supposed to be in glasgow |
23:08.18 | davilion | but i slept in |
23:08.33 | murb | hotel? |
23:08.44 | davilion | no i have an appartment in leamington |
23:09.00 | davilion | but i 'live' so to speak in scotland still |
23:09.04 | murb | how fancy |
23:09.08 | davilion | lol. |
23:09.12 | davilion | its a pita really. |
23:09.20 | murb | but you have adsl at it? |
23:09.31 | davilion | no. my housemate has adsl and wont share it |
23:09.33 | davilion | so i have modem |
23:09.38 | murb | 'spensive? |
23:09.45 | murb | how mean. |
23:10.09 | skugg | well, i can almost understand it sometimes... |
23:10.14 | murb | or are they afraid if you go anywhere near their computers they'll be converted from windows or somthing? |
23:10.35 | skugg | my housemate saturates our adsl line quite often downloading warez. |
23:11.04 | eye69 | Evening folks |
23:11.09 | skugg | eye69, hey. |
23:11.09 | eye69 | Fucking Telewest |
23:11.46 | eye69 | My set top has been unplugged for a while...taking _ages_ to download my channel auths |
23:11.54 | davilion | murb: no he's just a pita. |
23:11.59 | eye69 | It's been on for like 20 mins now |
23:12.39 | murb | skugg: but you control it? |
23:12.56 | murb | so you can apply QoS to their packets? |
23:13.14 | skugg | well. maybe. |
23:13.30 | skugg | but i don't have time to find out how to do it. |
23:14.01 | murb | what sort of router do you have?# |
23:14.08 | skugg | the adsl-router is hooked up directly to the hub, it's not going through a machine |
23:14.15 | skugg | it's an adsl router of some sort :P |
23:14.28 | skugg | i'll have a look. |
23:15.33 | skugg | probably a bad sign, but it's unbranded... |
23:16.05 | murb | it nats you? |
23:16.10 | mazzogs | try telnet to it... |
23:16.23 | murb | snmpwalk it see if it crashes |
23:16.30 | skugg | murb, it nats us, yes. and i can telnet into it. |
23:16.34 | skugg | no problem. |
23:17.09 | murb | so you can do reverse nat type stuff? |
23:17.20 | skugg | don't know. what is it? |
23:17.51 | murb | skugg: well forward somthing so you can ssh etc back into your home machine. |
23:18.20 | murb | this was the thing i like most about having cablemodem access, being able to connect to my home machines from work / anywhere. |
23:18.44 | skugg | oh, I can do port forwarding from the router if that's what you mean... |
23:19.19 | murb | yep |
23:19.20 | skugg | i think at least. |
23:21.20 | skugg | hmm... the box says "ATMlayer with traffic shaping" -- that sounds vaguely like somethnig that could be used for QoS.... |
23:21.59 | murb | AMTlayer sounds like marketing speak |
23:22.34 | skugg | i see. |
23:23.20 | murb | skugg: so you avoid all networky stuff by being an AI person? |
