M0n0Pluguin


 Hello everybody!

I'm really interested in develop a pluguin that can menage the vouchers,
the first and the main objective is to
know the actual voucher state, for example is if active or not, when it
expires, etc...

Does anybody worked in this before?? Could you give me some advise on how
to start developing?

I took a look at the development section of your web-page. It seems that
the first thing I must do is to
install the FreeBSD OS and then the m0n0 image for his OS. I'm wondering
if I can do all of this in a VMWare Workstation... My doubt is if I'm in
the right path, sorry I've never developed for this kind of sytems. So any
infomration will be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!!!

WRAP/ALIX platform running 1.33 - seeing limited download bandwidth

I recently changed my internet connection from Qwest/Century Link 20M/896K
DSL to a Comcast Business Cable which is netting about 55M/45M.  However,
when I run a speed test through a LAN based computer connected to my WRAP
based m0n0wall system, I was seeing only 16M down/35M up.

I checked my interfaces to make sure they were configured at 100Mb-Full
Duplex, and everything looked good.  It seemed really odd that I was still
seeing 35M up, but only seeing 16M Down.  I reset the Comcast SMC modem, my
"dirty" WAN side switch and my m0n0wall WRAP router - just to make sure
everything was cleaned up but still saw the same results.

Despite the 35M upload I was seeing, I decided my old WRAP platform must be
"dated" and ordered a new 500MHz ALIX board.  It arrived yesterday and I
replaced the router and now I am seeing about 10M down/35M Up.

I re-checked the interfaces, still showing 100M-Full Duplex. Whenever I
plug my workstation into the dirty WAN switch (bypassing m0n0wall) I
immediately get the 55M/45M speed result.

I tried a factory reset of settings and used DHCP on the WAN side, same
speed result of 10M/35M.

I am at a loss to what my problem is.  I couple of things worth mentioning:

1. I built the old WRAP system many years ago and have just been upgrading
the firmware over the years.

2. Since WRAP and ALIX both use the embedded image, I assumed I could just
plug my CF card into the new ALIX board and all would be fine - it seems to
be working fine.

Performance issues on WRAP

Hey

I recently noticed a strange behaviour with m0n0wall 1.33 running on a
PC Engines WRAP. It seems that whenever the network throughput (tried
with http and ftp) gets close to my connection's maximum (which is
around 25 Mbps) the system becomes extremely unresponsive and won't do
anything else anymore - DNS lookups fail and even wifi connections get
terminated. A quick look at the CPU load graph shows that it's very
close to 100%.

Now, I realize that maxing out my connection will have some negative
impact on additional data traffic, but using my whole CPU for a little
bit of packet forwarding seems slightly excessive. Thus I was
wondering whether anyone might have an idea about what I can do to
figure out what exactly generates all that CPU load and how to fix it.

Any advice would be highly appreciated.

cheers

PPTP - multiple NICs & Subnets

Hello, I apologize for my ignorance but I have a small question.

I am considering using m0n0wall as a virtual appliance in a VMware host.
Ideally I would like for the appliance to have 3 NICs:

*	NIC1 = WAN (public IP)
*	NIC2 = LAN1 (192.168.100.0/24)
*	NIC3 = LAN2 (192.168.200.0/24)

Would it be possible to configure a PPTP VPN that I can connect to that
would allow me to access both the 192.168.100.x and 192.168.200.x
networks, and if so how?  I'd rather use PPTP vs. IPSec due to its
support by most OS's out-of-the-box, but if I absolutely have to use
IPSec I suppose I could.

I haven't found a definite answer, and it is the last piece of my
virtual network puzzle.  Thanks in advance!

Captive Portal: WLAN Authentification without entering Voucher ID or user name / password pair

Hy,
I'm running m0n0wall in its latest stable version and I experience, that users sometimes can use the
captive portal without having to enter either a voucher id or a user / password pair. I've built a web page,
that would allow for both: either entering user name and password or voucher id. Leaving the fields blank
and clicking on "continue" gives users access to the internet... what more information would you need to
help me?
also there are two linux based internet terminals, which provide the same strange and not-wanted behaviour...
thanks in advance.

NAT'd Interfaces VS Non-NAT'd interfaces


Hello, 

We just started toying with the idea of replacing our current firewall with M0n0wall.  Our LAN interface
is a private IP pool that is NAT'd and our other VLAN's are public IP pools.  How do we ensure our VLAN's that
have our public IP space are not behing NAT'd? 

Thanks in advance.

Firewall not filtering?

Hi,

I must be doing something wrong.

v1.33 on a soekris net4801

All 'pass' rules on my firewall WAN i/f are disabled, and yet I am happily sending and receiving traffic,
including this email. What am I missing??

Less Than 24 Subnet Mask Causes iPhone, iPad, etc No Web Browsing

Hi all
I'm having a problem with my m0n0wall at home, If I connected client i.e. iPad, iPhone, android, etc client
is connected to a network with a subnet mask of less than 24, causes the devices not to be able to browse the
Internet, this is not true to windows machines connected, which does not suffer from such problems. The
affected networks are additional to the default LAN and via VLAN tagging to a managed switch. Has anybody
experienced any problems or possible solutions?

M0n0wall version - 1.33

EG - 192.168.11.1/26 which should give 62 available addresses.....

Kind Regards
Dave

State Table Optimization - m0n0 vs pfSense...

In pfSense, there is a drop down to select how the state table is 
optimized.  You can choose "normal" "high latency" "aggressive" or 
"conservative."  Is there any way to do this in m0n0wall with shell 
commands?  It seems to help some VoIP services a lot...

how to use dyndns behind a router

Hi

I use the m0n0wall behind a dsl router. PPPoE is not supported anymore so I need to forward all external
initiated traffic to the m0n0wall with a private ip on the wan interface.

My problem:

DynDns doesn't work anymore because the public ip is bound on dsl router. Is there a way to configure dyndns
for such scenario?

thx bb
