Is there a specifc procedure to shut down a _removable_ (wireless)
ethernet device (USB, PCMCIA) ?
What commands? ifconfig, iwconfig, rmmod ...
I have a USB eth device and I share it between 2 machines. Unplugging it
during use, causes bizarre problems.

I'm strongly inclined to call this a bug. USB is a plug and play bus,Quote:> I have a USB eth device and I share it between 2 machines. Unplugging

Linux is capable of working this way: I know because I have several
USB devices and they all can be hot-swapped without causing any
problems. If your Linux isn't working this way, it's probably a bug
(and probably in your distro).

In theory, yes. Practice tells differently, though.
Try to unplug an USB HD from a running Win* session, if you want
some fun. But you're right: That should not happen; the unplug
script should be called and do all the needed things (like ifdown
etc.) automatically. Time for debugging.

Lumber Cartel Unit #456 (TINLC) & Official Netscum
Note: If you want me to send you email, don't munge your address.
1. route based on incoming eth out ppp - two eth / two ppp
I have two ethernet connections to an internal lan and two
outbound connections via ppp - two seperate isp's
I need to be able to route traffic based on incoming source.
25
------->| eth0 | --------->ppp0 ---------> Internet
| 80 |
| |
| 26 |
------->| eth0:1 | --------->ppp1 ---------> Internet
8080
I have two squid and two sendmail daemons running each
bound to it's interface.
Outbound mail needs to be able to go through it's
respective isp's smtp server as a smart host - hence
the traffic shaping.
I have scripted the connection and then added the following
iptables setup. Unfortunately it is not working.
#/bin/bash!
p0=`/sbin/ifconfig |grep P-t-P | awk '{print $2}' \
|sed -e 's/addr\://g;' |grep 209`
p1=`/sbin/ifconfig |grep P-t-P | awk '{print $2}' \
|sed -e 's/addr\://g;' |grep 129`
#
echo $p0
echo $p1
# Setup IPTABLES
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 20
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -j MARK --set-mark 21
ip route add default via $p0 dev ppp0 table 22
ip route add default via $p1 dev ppp1 table 23
ip rule add fwmark 20 table 22
ip rule add fwmark 21 table 23
Can anyone see where i have made a mistake in this?
Thanks for any and all help,
Cheers,
Chris
