Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote
Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad
and HELP !!!
10/18/2002 06:19 AMWindows 2000 Server Routing and Remote Access OR I'd Rather Suck a
Dead Toad and HELP !!!
Yesterday I wasted an entire day to get close to 0 results. Sigh.
Here's the deal. One of our clients, a non-profit, who specializes in
placing people with disabilities in jobs asked us recently for some
basic networking help. They needed a VPN set up and their internal
network needed to have a "bastion" network server added. A bastion
network server is a single computer with two network cards through
which all Internet traffic passes. It (generally) provides via dhcp
the addresses for a local subnet like 192.168.x.y and is the sole
outside machine that is exposed on the Internet. [ Good Article on
Bastion Networks ]
Right now their ISP has provided them with external IP addresses for
each of their office computers (and server) and they run ZoneAlarm on
each machine to "protect" them. This is one of the more brain dead
ways to run an office lan with Internet access and just plain scares
the crap out of me. DO NOT DO THIS FOR YOUR OFFICE !!! Their IT guy
is one of their staff and NOT a Linux person who does the IT along
with being a full time case worker. I convinced him that this was
unsafe and we should do it with implementing a basic VPN. He had a
licensed copy of Windows 2000 Server and thus began my descent into
the land of "I'd rather suck a dead toad". I do know that some folks
have had really good luck with using Windows 2000 Server for this type
of purpose. I had no luck. None of the options for Windows 2000
Routing and Remote Access worked -- if I got DHCP working then the lan
worked only locally and client machines couldn't see the Internet. If
I setup the VPN options (as per Microsoft's exact directions) then the
server couldn't see the Internet (and stopped responding to external
Pings). Oh and just as a warning to others -- INSTALL SERVICE PACK 3
FIRST. I lost a lot of time since I didn't realize the machine was
missing service pack 3 and apparently none of this stuff works without
SP3. No I can't confirm this with Microsoft's fix list but after
doing an SP3 upgrade then and only then did the NAT options begin
working.
So here's what I'm looking for:
Can a single computer running Windows 2000 Server do this? Serve both
as a bastion host and as an incoming VPN server? Theoretically it is
possible but practically I'm starting to wonder if their setup tools
allow it.
Exact, step by step directions to do this (if they exist). I've done
I can't tell you how many Google queries and there are directions out
there --- but they all are hinted at in the tables of contents of
different books -- not anything like a good Linux How To document.
Alternatives. If Windows 2000 Server isn't a good way to do this then
I can drop a dedicated Linux box on site but I'll end up picking up
the maintenance burden so low maintenance would be good.
One approach I'm considering is a small Linksys hardware firewall
between their outside Internet connection and their internal lan to
provide the DHCP. These boxes, which are generally used for home
networking, are actually quite reliable and since the office only has
a fractional, shared T1, would be fast enough. Since these are only
in the $70 range now, I can just chuck one in for free as a donation
(we're only talking about 5 or 6 machines in the office plus one
server). At a minimum this is safer than Zone Alarm.
Tip #1: The pain started 1st thing when I got their and neither of the
network cards in the bastion host (well the theoretical bastion host)
could ping. Standard IBM etherjet cards that worked perfectly before
going in this box. Know what fixed them? Just moving the graphics
card over one slot and the moving the two network cards over to where
the graphics card was. Go figure. Plug and Play ? Try Plug and Pray
or as I prefer "Plug and sacrifice a goat".
Tip #2: I did expect some problems so I brought along an extra hub
with me which I setup immediately. This let the "bastion" host and
the IT guy's laptop be isolated from the main network preserving
Internet access for everyone else in the office. This way for the 8+
hours that I had to tinker with the beast known as Windows 2000 Server
Routing and Remote Access at least Internet access was preserved.
Note: They're budget strapped and since we've done one big project for
them this fell into the category of free help for good client
relations.

Dead pixels instead of dead trees
12/22/2004 01:49 AMI love books, I love browsing stacks, I love libraries, I love
Powell's in Portland, I like collecting books, I always have a stack
nearby to read, I love looking through picture books, and I love books
even though I didn't really become much of a reader until the end of
my college years (I never read for fun until then). Plunging into the
Internet fed my book addiction further, as I had to read dozens of
computer classics to get up to speed and stay ahead of the curve.
Every computer desk I've had until recently was flanked by bookshelves
loaded with titles.
Earlier this year, I remember hearing Cory
Doctorow give a talk about how ebooks were going to rule the world
and folks would abandon the printed page for the laptop screen. I
thought it was a good talk, but I felt the thesis was a bit ahead of
its time. There's really no comparison between curling up with a book
and a blanket in front of a fireplace, versus trying to read thousands
of words on a screen.
Last weekend I was doing some house cleaning and I kept finding
stacks of books. A stack next to the reading chairs.
A stack on the coffee table. A stack beside my bed. All these stacks
contained books I bought in 2004, but never read. Some, I got halfway
through, but even more I got maybe ten pages in. A few I never even
cracked open.
When I think back to the last three books I enjoyed, they were all
heard on my iPod,
while on a road trip. I can't recall the last book I finished in
my hands.
I'm going to take a holiday trip soon to a fairly remote location
where there's not much to do besides read. I'm going to sit and read
the
only book I've wanted to read this year, and I have a feeling it
might just be one of the last dead tree books I read for a long
time.
As much as I didn't agree with Cory back during his E-tech talk,
I'm finally realizing it's coming true in my own life. I read
thousands of words everyday on my monitors and I rarely take time to
read anything on the printed page, and there's no sign of reversal on
that trend. The scariest thing for the bookfan inside me is that I
don't think it's bad thing, either.
Long live the ebook. Long live the audiobook. So long, dead
trees.

Oak Island Mystery
01/16/2004 11:02 AM Oak Island is one of
the greatest
treasur
e hunting mysteries of the last 400 years.
The Money Pit as it is
called, has stirred up a bevy of questions including how this simple
pit has alluded treasure hunters and scientists to this day.
Some believe
that it might be the location of the
Holy Grail,
stashed by the
Templar Knights.
Other's
believe that it might be the resting place of Sir Francis Bacon's
original plays acreditted to William Shakespear.
The most common
belief is that The pirate
Captain
Kidd hid his huge stash of gold
deep
within the pit which accounts for all of the unusual traps.
Regardless of the
wild speculation there has been
evidence to suggest that there is deffinately
something in the pit.
