PREFACE
|
||
This document describes what yet has to be done in NET-2, how to install
|
||
it, and more of that stuff.
|
||
|
||
|
||
NEWS
|
||
New items in this (Rev.B) release of NET-2:
|
||
|
||
- about 48Kbyte worth of patches from Ross Biro. These should fix the
|
||
last "locking telnet" bugs, and some others.
|
||
|
||
- many, many small fixes like those in the Makefiles. You all know what
|
||
I am talking about here.
|
||
|
||
- rewrites of some system header files.
|
||
|
||
- better ICMP. Not complete yet, but I am getting there. Slowly...
|
||
|
||
- IP routing ("*** datagram routing IS NOW implemented ***"). Grin.
|
||
|
||
- Patches from Fred Baumgarten (and, I assume, Gerald Heim) to clean
|
||
out some remaining 'volatile' keywords, and to prepare for a decent
|
||
netstat(8) program.
|
||
|
||
- Mew distribution format, with this text included. Also: the *new*
|
||
net-base utils. *GRIN*
|
||
|
||
- The "current" versions of Donald Becker's driver kit. Donald, can
|
||
you check && maintain please?
|
||
|
||
|
||
BUGS
|
||
|
||
Several known bugs remain:
|
||
|
||
- no IP fragmentation yet. We need 'mbuf's for that, on which work is
|
||
already being done. Will be after Linux 1.0, alas.
|
||
|
||
- for the same reason: DDI is not finished yet.
|
||
|
||
- ARP still acts weird. Any takers?
|
||
|
||
- There seems to be a memory leak in the NET-2 code. Especially when
|
||
using the IP routing ("gatewaying") code, the leak appears.
|
||
|
||
- No IP Option Processing yet. Partly because I don't yet feel like
|
||
it...
|
||
|
||
INSTALLATION
|
||
|
||
1. Create a source directory called /usr/src/linux, and unpack
|
||
the standard (0.99 PL9) kernel source there.
|
||
|
||
2. Remove the old NET code with the commands:
|
||
|
||
# rm -rf /usr/src/linux/net
|
||
|
||
3. Remove an old include file:
|
||
|
||
# rm -f /usr/src/linux/include/linux/sock_ioctl.h
|
||
|
||
4. Unpack the "net-ksrc.tgz" file:
|
||
|
||
# cd /usr/src/linux
|
||
# tar xfvz /tmp/net-ksrc.tgz
|
||
|
||
This contains the new NET code. Then, patch the rest of the
|
||
kernel:
|
||
|
||
# patch -p0 </tmp/net-kernel.cdif
|
||
|
||
(relax, the patch only fixes some typos, and adds a number of
|
||
system include files...). Note, that this patch overwrites any
|
||
current "Makefile", "config.in" or "Configure" files in the
|
||
top-level directory.
|
||
|
||
5. Check the definitions in net-2/inet/Makefile.
|
||
|
||
6. Make config && depend:
|
||
|
||
# cd /usr/src/linux
|
||
# make config
|
||
# make depend
|
||
|
||
Choose the "TCP/IP Networking software version 2" in the
|
||
configuration section.
|
||
|
||
7. Make the kernel.
|
||
|
||
|
||
NETWORK PROGRAMS
|
||
|
||
NET-2 has changed a lot, so a new set of "base utilities" comes with
|
||
it. These programs allow you to set up and maintain your network.
|
||
To compile and install:
|
||
|
||
1. Create the directory:
|
||
|
||
# mkdir /usr/src/commands/usr.net/net
|
||
|
||
2. Unpack the distribution:
|
||
|
||
# cd /usr/src/commands/usr.net/net
|
||
# tar xfvz /tmp/net-base.tgz
|
||
|
||
3. Make the stuff.
|
||
|
||
# make
|
||
|
||

|

|
||
|
||
Note, that in LINUX/Pro, all system config files are kept in /conf, and
|
||
all non-needed binaries (like the TCP/IP and RPC servers) are in /usr/etc.
|
||
|
||
Have a look at the sample config files in the net-base distribution, and
|
||
pay close attention to the "rc.inet[12]" files, which set up your network.
|
||
|
||
|
||
SLIP
|
||
|
||
For SLIP users: yes, SLIP works. Have a look at the new "dip" program
|
||
and its config file. Dip is not perfect yet, but I am sure the guys
|
||
at Demon.Co.Uk will change this. Right, guys? :-)
