I-Scream & Route Tables? Eircon B*****ds!

Chief

Lo laeds
I-Scream support wont help because its I-Scream solo package on a networked server (WinNT)!?! I mean ffs all i want is a wee bit of help.. but no! They couldnt be arsed (ie. "not our policy")....

Rant mode *OFF*

Anyhow, ive got I-scream installed (no thanks to eircon) and it connects gives me an IP etc, the only problem is i can get no net traffic to the machine at all, i cant browse ping or anything. The modem is the alcatel ethernet one and the following is my route table on the NT machine:



Please could you help lads! I appreciate it

Ohh and does anyone know how to share this connect out to another machine or 2, perhaps via a proxy?

Cheers laeds!

i imagine it is connecting so its just a comms error on the local machine. Attempt the following ping the local machine. ping the machine name. Next check hosts file doesnt have incorrect stuff in it for your local host. Next make sure the loopback adapter is configure correctly. Next type ipconfig /all and upload to this message.

Chief

ummm...



oh dear... Ping works perfectly from other machines on the network to.
What way should the loopback thingy be configured?

I cant get access to the modem ip either, no ping, no nothing (in case ive to config it, its 10.0.0.138).

cheers!

I see a 192.168.0.X network and a 192.168.1.X network.
Is this machine connected to multiple subnets?
There is also a mention on a 10.x.y.z network but this is probably the ip address that the Ethernet card connected to the DSL modem is using and is'nt relevent.
I don't see any sign of any real internet addresses like 159.134.x.y that you should see with Eircom. Also there is no default gateway to the internet.
To get it to work on the server itself.
1. Take out all the network cards except the one connected to the DSL modem. Then try it.
2. Now put the cards back in 1 at a time and set the ip addresses up. Don't put in a default gateway on any of the local LAN cards.
To get it to work on other machines on your network you'll need to setup NAT.(Network address translation) or get some sort of proxy software like wingate.
As for Eircom not helping, why would they its an NT related problem.

Chief

Yes its on multiple subnets (wan)
I added the 10.0.0.138 to attempt to gain access to the modem.
There is only 1 netwrk card in the machine. The modem i plugged into the hub via mdi-x port (it shows this configuration in the modem manual). I wondered about no 159.* ip myself. Check out the following.



Im gonna take out the default gateways from the card now.

Cheers!

Chief

Sorted!

I removed the default gateways from networking, rebooted and bob is now your uncle!



Thanks for the help laeds!

Now...

There seems to be no entries in dial-up networking anywhere for an i-stream dialup. How do i configure a proxy like Sambar (or any other) to use the i-stream connection (ie auto dial, disconnect or route other users through it).. ?

I-Scream uses enternet.exe to call up the connection window. Any ideas laeds?

Thanks all!

Ahhh.

Here's the problem right here....

Try losing Enternet and installing RasPPPoE - homepage is (http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~normanb/). Works a treat with i-stream and looks like a DUN modem to Windows.
One thing to watch out for is the warning if you have installed MS's Remote Access Service Security Update
