Cable Modem Setup under LinuxPPC4

by Guy Davi » Sat, 08 May 1999 04:00:00

LinuxPPC for a few days now by using reading how-tos, etc. on the web
but nothing seems to work. The install for the MacOS required going to
the TCP/IP control panel, selecting Ethernet and then DHCP. I expect
the Linux setup is significantly more complicated. Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks.

1. Cable modem..56 modem dial up, 500K cable modem download stream...

I have 2 network cards and 1 modem in a Linux Box with RH6.
My cable modem uses the modem to start a PPP session, and the network card
is then hooked up to the VPN of the ISP.

I would like to setup a IP Masquraded Firewall to hook some of my other
boxes
behind the firewall.

I cannot find a HOW-TO to setup the Linux box using this type of Cable
Modem. I
have only found 2 way cable modems. Can someone point me it the right
direction.

My problem is that I don't know how to get Linux connected, then also, how
do I configure
ipchains or ipfwadm to use the correct rule set. Do I do the modem or the
network card. The
network card has a static IP of 10.0.0.1 which is usally used for VPNs. My
cable company
is of corse not supporting Linux, so I have to do it myself. The PPP dialup
uses DHCP to
assign my address so I have dhcp setup.

Thanks in advance..
