Na I don't read most of yours anyways, not missing much :p

I need to get a Xeon fow kicks.
 
oh yea. my friend is getting another dual xeon ht soon too.. (x4 more)


Don't think spec will catch me for a while.
Oh well :)

Its just for fun anyways.. right ;)

ok, nm, NICS are fine, other than my home network is 192.168.0.0

but i still get these errors:

Configuring network interfaces.... route: SIOC[ADD|DEL]RT: Network is unreacable

route: SIOC[ADD|DEL]RT: File exists

Starting HTTP Server : Socket: Address family not supported by protocol

fold start called
tar (child): /foldsave/fold.tar.gz: Cannot open: no such file

any clue?
What's 'ifconfig -a' show? It'll probably show up with one network adapter configured and working (eth0, 10.1.1.1) and the other will be on 192.168.1.15. If this is the case, log in as 'dsl' and type 'startx'. It'll start a graphical interface. Firefox will pop up. Accept the security warning, then click on 'change configuration'. Log in (the default password is "Fold@on" (case sensitive, minus the "s)). Select "eth1" from the dropdown, and hit submit. Change the IP, network, broadcast, and gateway fields and hit submit. Then close firefox, right-click on the desktop and go to shut down->reboot. When it comes back up it should work fine.

You can also get to that page from any machine on the network (once the network is working :rolleyes: ).

HTH :cool:
 
inconfig -a shows all three interfaces up and working, I changed over the eth1 to 192.168.0.15 and was able to access the webpage interface and change the network settings over ( btw, you DNS config doesn't work, I had to manually edit the file using vim )

I still get the errors tho

route - shows both 10 series and 192 series network plus the gateway, but doesn't no show the loopback network

if I su - dsl and startx it attempts to launch but fails
it complains about missing //.xinitrc and about /etc/X11R6 or something close to that not being in the path

I'll get the startx error posted tonight
 
Okay, here's what my working fold-server shows for `route`:
Code:
root@box:~# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth1
10.0.0.0        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 eth0
default         192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth1
Try `xsetup.sh`. It's from DSL, so if it doesn't work don't blame me ;) It should work fine though, DSL has worked on some fairly esoteric hardware for me.

Try `netstat -ant` to see what servers are starting (if any), here's my result:
Code:

To get rid of the "fold.tar.gz missing" error, run "/root/getfold.pl" and fill in the prompts.
 
Hmm. I think there is... they keep talking about stuff with folding and computers

Although it could be a cover up and its really secret Aussie attack plans
 
:D
Ohhhh.... conspiracy theories... that might just be it!

 
Thanks for helping out, guys, I knew it was getting too serious. ;)

Any luck with it, nerk?
 
just watching out for our team.

cant be serious all the time ya know?

too damn boring.. and.. .nerd like.


Fold [H]ard----or Die [H]ard
 
making progress

server still boots with the network errors and the http server error

but i've got X going and folding on the server itself

tried a netboot, boots fine, starts folding client, and hangs at Retreiving user ID from server

I think it's due to that network error, i don't think the server is actually routing to the main network
 
From the server: 'ping 192.168.0.whatever'
'ping 10.3.1.client'
'nslookup google.com'
'route'

From the client: 'ping 10.1.1.1'
'ping 192.168.0.whatever'
'nslookup google.com'

What do those show? The problem is most likely in a) route tables, b) DNS configuration, or c) the interface configuration. If you post the output of these (if you log in via putty, you can drag to select and paste in the little box here with ctrl+V like normal) I can probably figure out what's going on.

Oh, I assume you have a Linksys (or similar) router? Have you put in a static route to the 10 network?

Here is the mandatory off-topic section. I like orange juice.
 
FYI- You can not do a statis route on a Dlink router (DI-514 to be exact).

Yea, starting pinging the hell out of things.

Off topic: I like frosting on cakes
 
I'll try that tonight, I know i can ping everywhere from the server. I'll have to check on the client.

You lost me on the static route on the router. I use Freesco, which is just a custom *nix distro for routing.
 
Most home routers you can use a static IP. You don't do it at the router, you do it at the computer. Just turn off or adjust the DHCP range on the router i.e. instead of 192.168.1.2-192.168.1.256 for the DHCP range set it to 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.256. After that step, just manually set the ip crap on you Workstation. You will now have a static IP that won't get conflicts due to the router double assigning an IP.




 
Mage's distro is weird, you defeintly need to check from client to server, then most importantly from client to world. I'm betting the client to world is the problem, this is where the statis route.

Some can lookup how to do a static route on your router setup if you get into trouble.
 
ok, sounds like time for a diagram

outside world --> router --> 192.168.0.X network --> fold server --> 10.x.x.x network --> fold client

now why would i need to adjust anything on my router for the client to work?
the way the fold server is setup it acts as a router for the fold clients, at least that's what it looks like to me
 
Just trust me on this one, ping from client to world. I'm betting it might not work. Static route fixes this.

I still pissed about the static route btw mage.

The client is on differnt subnet than the gateway or something like that, and the server is not the gateway for this LAN.
 
hey, wtf? That's how gateways work. Sorry.

The reason is this. Suppose the client sends out a TCP/IP packet to the outside world, to stanford.edu. Here's the route of that packet.
client -> fold-server -> router -> internet -> stanford.edu
OK? Now stanford.edu generates an acknowledge packet, and sends it back.
stanford.edu -> internet -> router
and then it breaks down. The router has a packet destined for the 10 subnet, but all it knows about is the 192 subnet it's on. So you have to tell the router, "any packets for the 10 subnet get sent to this host, he'll deal with it". That's what the static route is.

The alternative is to run a route daemon, but that won't work in this case, because the other routers need to be running a route daemon too, and the dlink/linksys boxes aren't smart enough to do that.

Anyways, that's the long and the short of it. If you can't figure out how to add that static route, lmk and I'll make up some pretty diagrams. I should add those to the docs anyways.

OT: Currently listening to I Palindrome I by TMBG. This whole song is offtopic.
 
oooooooh ( light bulb turns on ) I understand now, stupid me. No wonder the DNS logs on the foldserver show the client receiving the ip addresses yet still not getting data back.

since i'm running a *nix box for my router I should be able to just issue route add -net 10.0.0.0 eth1
too bad it's gonna be 6 hours before I can get home to fix it.

( i don't think I see anything in the DOCs about the static route )


 
Mage- I need to to redesign the internet for me so this works the way I want. Done by lunch?

I just like giving you a hard time Mage. Is/was there a specific reason the clients are on a different subnet? I'm asuming you picked 10.x so some fool (me) could run more than a 192.168.c class could.

I'm getting site today, that bites...
 
New static route info, please read and comment. Marty - can you get screenies from the D-link & mail them to me? nerk - do you have a BSD box you can test and give me a procedure for?

marty: put a :D after it next time so I'll know you're screwing with me!
Yep, I picked 10 so somebody with more than 254 machines could still do netbooting. Not much demand for that yet, unfortunately.
 
:D I'll try and get the thing on a public Ip/open the remote management port and oyu can just have at it. Oldbenwa and I tried and were not too stupid, well at least not him :D
 
So added route, still nothing

I'm not sure that the route you added to the router is sufficient, can you try this?

`route add -net 10.1.1.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw 192.168.0.15`
This gives a specific place to send them, rather than 'oh, spew those in that direction'. Might help.
 
for what it's worth, on the Linksys router it's pointed to 192.168.1.15 (server) and it seems to work.
 
grumble grumble grumble, here's more proof of my stupidity, all of this is on one switch, i bet packets are getting confused as hell as to where they go to.
 
.................................>server
feed>router>switch>
...............................>clients

is ours, 1 switch

forgive the ........... just place holders
 
Does this have support for the USB devices without much work? I can recompile a kernel etc if need-be but never tried to make anything USB work under linux.
 
The route was enough, but becuase I'm using a *nix flavor for my router I had to enable masquerading on the 10.0.0.0 network. I assume a normal router ( linsys, dlink) does this automatically.

While everything is working fine now, I can no longer browse the network and see the fold-server nor can I access the https page. I don't know what I did to break these.

Like what? It probably works if it's a usb pen or something. If it's a digital camera or a scanner or something, it probably won't.

For usb pens, just plug it in and it should give a message (on the console) about new usb storage device sda, and then just do "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/somewhere" and replace somewhere with a directory that exists. You can make a new directory in /mnt by saying "mkdir /mnt/newdir".

@nerk: can you ping fold-server's 10 address? what about the 192? eg `ping 10.1.1.1`
 
I'm pinging just fine, i have to start nmbd and smbd manually to get samba going, and I can't find httpd anywhere. not a big deal as everything is up and running fine, just don't understand why samba stopped running automatically.
