Kiloshi andrewlsd 08:41
andrewlsdmorning all others too :-)08:41
pieter2627hi andrewlsd08:41
andrewlsdI'm looking at OpenALPR.com and the related opensource stuff on GitHub. for ideas on building an automatic number plate recognition system, for suburb/neighbourhood watch.08:42
mazalHi andrewlsd , inetpro08:42
andrewlsdthere are several commercial solutions around, but this is something that could be well-suited to an opensource, community project. 08:43
andrewlsdHi Maaz 08:43
andrewlsdHi mazal 08:43
andrewlsdany of you guys looked at "ALPR" stuff?09:11
thatgraemeguyhello peoples09:19
andrewlsdhello thatgraemeguy 09:24
Kiloshi sundown hows ian09:43
sundownhello guys09:44
sundownwolfeyes_is here (Ian)09:45
sundownI need a bit of support with connect a ethernet card tot he internet please.09:46
Kilospieter2627 do you know how to setup a network card?09:46
sundownCurrent setup is router going to Linux server,  through onboard ethernet and then out on a ethernet plugin09:47
sundownrouter has internet and plugin goes to network09:48
superflyjust plug it in?09:49
sundownthe network card towards isn't connecting to the network09:49
sundownlol @ superfly09:49
sundownit is plugged in09:49
superflyI've never needed to do anything else09:49
sundowneish09:49
superflysundown: what are you trying to make work?09:50
superflysundown: the Linux server?09:50
sundownthe network card on the server09:51
sundownit's runnign currently 14.04 kde09:51
sundowncouldn't install kde server last night at midnight, because it wanted to install from a cd, but had no clean cd's and installed from usb.09:53
sundownor ubuntu server as kilo's corrects me09:54
sundownthe server was running lucid and the IT admin had left 5 years ago, the computer crashed due to overheating, and they got a computer company to try fix it, they cloned the drive to a new drive, and put in new hardware. Hence the new install. No information is used or stored on the server, it is only being used as security connecting to the internet and to control people accessing the internet, with user name and password09:57
andrewlsdsundown: is the system running from the cloned drive?09:58
sundownno - new install09:58
andrewlsdk09:58
andrewlsdcan you click on the network icon?09:59
andrewlsdwithout wanting to be the opposite of helpful and attract a flamewar, if you're wanting a network gateway / proxy /router, then an ubuntu-based solution like "zentyal" would probably be a simpler installation, as it is designed to have an internet link and private LAN network, to make it easier to us10:00
andrewlsd... starting from scratch with an ubuntu install *can* work, and you should end up with a better understanding of what is actually going on between your network and the internet.10:01
andrewlsdbut if you want something quicker you might want to look at http://www.zentyal.org/10:02
andrewlsd... of course, that's just a suggestion, someone else here may already have helped you with another route, so I don't want to cause extra confusion.10:02
sundowncan click on the network icon, and it shows both the onboard and plugin network cards in the settings,but only allows the onboard to connect and doesn't show the plugin card to connect10:03
andrewlsdsundown: if you swap the network cables around, does that make any difference?10:03
sundownyes it does10:03
sundownlet me explain why10:03
andrewlsdalso, connect defaults to DHCP, and you might need to configure a fixed address for one of the interface cards.10:03
sundownpreviosly the network was going through plugin (server) and out the onboard to the Router (internet)10:04
sundownIf I connect it like this - I cannot connect to internet to get support10:05
sundownso I have it connected currently from the internet to the onboard just get get online access10:05
sundownI don't know if it can work both ways, and/or if the cables can be swopped once the plugin card can see the internet router.10:06
superflyI agree with andrewlsd, it's usually easier to go with a distro designed to be an application10:10
andrewlsdHere's a list of Linux (and BSD) firewall distributions: http://www.mondaiji.com/blog/other/it/10175-the-hunt-for-the-ultimate-free-open-source-firewall-distro10:18
Kilosty for helping sundown andrewlsd and superfly 10:22
andrewlsd:-)10:23
andrewlsdsundown: You'll need to give us the output of the following commands:sudo ifconfig10:32
andrewlsdsudo ifconfig10:32
andrewlsd... so that we can see what the current list of network interfaces is10:32
andrewlsdand then, so that we can see what the configuration should be, the output of10:32
andrewlsdcat /etc/network/interfaces10:33
sundownokay, working on that ty10:33
andrewlsdonce we have that, we can look at getting the right address assigned to the right network card10:33
andrewlsdand then we can enable forwarding of traffic10:33
andrewlsdand Network Address Translation, so that other computers will have internet access through this computer10:33
andrewlsdThat will not restrict access in any way, but, it will at least get you up and running.  if you do want to have nice graphs, and easy configuration dashboard for your Linux firewall/gateway, then a re-installation with a dedicated Linux firewall/gateway distribution is going to be the best way of getting it done.10:35
andrewlsd(I'll be back around 13h30)10:35

sundownty andrew10:42
inetprosundown: what is the IP address range on your internal network?10:56
inetproand subnet mask10:56
sundown192.168.1. range11:01
sundown255.255.255.011:01
inetproso 192.168.1.0/24 is internal?11:01
sundownyes11:01
inetprowhat is your router inside interface address?11:01
sundown192.168.1.111:01
sundownwhen you say inside? the network or the internet router?11:01
inetprohmm... then why do you have a firewall in between?11:02
sundownthe internet router is 192.168.1.1,  then the server, then the other routers and computers on network, they all in the 192.168.1. 2/140 range11:03
inetprotypically a firewall will talk to the router on the same network range and to internal systems on a different network range11:03
sundownwe can do that as well11:04
inetprothere's no such thing as a 2/140 range11:04
sundownbut doesn't help having a firewall when I can't see the network through the ethernet card yet....11:04
inetproipcalc 192.168.1.116 255.255.255.011:05
sundownDoes the last number in the ip range not go from 1 - 255?11:05
inetproand if you don't have ipcalc do 'apt-get install ipcalc'11:06
inetprothe three most important settings for machines to be able to talk to each other on the same network are, IP address, subnet mask and gateway11:09
inetproeach IP address has to be unique and subnet and gateway have to be the same on each machine11:10
sundownhttp://bin.snyman.info/buawv11:10
sundownthere is nothing wrong with the network11:10
sundownthe problem is with the server ethernet card which is plugged in, new hardware was put in the computer.11:12
andrewlsdsundown: the paste link for the output of the following command didn't work. Please try again to run:11:29
andrewlsdcat /etc/network/interfaces11:29
sundownwill do11:29

LangjanBye for now12:34
andrewlsdsorry, I got disconnected and didn't notice.12:53
andrewlsdsundown: based on what you posted in the pastebin, you need two separate network ranges, one for each interface12:54
sundowneach interface?12:54
andrewlsdso, if DSL/internet router is 192.168.1.1, then make the "internet-side" Linux network card 192.168.1.2, and make the 'LAN' side network interface 192.168.2.212:55
andrewlsdthen everyone in the LAN will need their computers to belong to 192.168.2.0/2412:55
andrewlsdwith their gateway set as 192.168.2.212:55
sundownthat part I get - the computers adjust on their own12:55
andrewlsdscratch that12:55
andrewlsdsundown: install a new distro12:55
sundownbut I cannot allocate any ip to the eth112:55
andrewlsdyou'll need DHCP server and a bunch of other things. nope12:56
andrewlsdyou really need two network cards.12:56
sundownthere is two network cards12:56
andrewlsd(yes, it can be done with one, but I strongly recommend against that)12:56
sundownI can't see the eth112:56
sundownbut it is there in the settings12:56
sundownbut won't connect to it12:57
andrewlsdyou aren't going to use the GUI (graphical user interface).12:57
sundownI just want it to work if I must do it via cli I will12:57
andrewlsdsundown: this isn't going to work for you.12:58
Kilosai!13:02
andrewlsdsundown and I are still working at this13:09
andrewlsdtrying to help via SSH13:09
Kilosaha13:15
Kilosty andrewlsd 13:15
andrewlsdover to TeamViewer.... ;-)13:25
Kilosouch13:30
andrewlsd... and the internet access is up :-)14:06
andrewlsdI have given sundown a list of the files I changed, and made a copy of the history on the user's desktop.14:09
andrewlsdtraffic forward is on, (without any restrictions). sundown will want to either do squid, or re-install later with ipFire (or similar) to get that functionality.14:17
andrewlsdcheerio peeps. am jumping offline.14:17
sundownThank you everyone for your help with my first linux client :-)15:01
sundownhave a good evening all15:03
