The configuration depends on the distribution you use. In debian it is /etc/network/interfaces.

This one would only work, if you _not_ change the GCC version, that are 
defined in colinux source.  If you change the gcc or the binutil 
version, than the build can be broken.  Newer binutils stops on some 
inline assembler, newer gcc warns about some coding style.

I'm not know, why you need to recompile the daemons, if you have gcc 3.4.x ?

Colinux 0.6.4 was compiled with a gcc 3.4.4, you can use every gcc 3.4.x 
to compile your one kernel, without recompiling the daemons, without 
cross builds.

> 2) - simply install a gcc 3.3 on the gentoo colinux then recompile the 
> colinux kernel

This would only work, if your coLinux daemons are compiled with gcc 
3.3.x, this was coLinux 0.6.2 or older.

If you not to wish to build the daemons, than check first the used 
version of gcc, where the daemons are build.  Download the source of 
colinux, you want to use, unpack it.  You find GCC_VERSION in the file 
bin/common.sh, these first two digits give you the gcc you should use to 
compile the kernel.

You should have more than 500MB free disk space and a internet 
connection.  Than download the source of colinux and run scripts
    ./configure && make
This would download some more sources and than build the cross 
environemt, daemons and the kernel.  After it has finish, you can change 
the kernel config and start the script build-kernel.sh (or "make 
kernel") again.

More about coLinux building you find in the source under doc/building, 
this is the file:

The same way like in any other debian.
Colinux has nothing to do with packet management. 

So if you didn't find a package named catalyst maybe you just try the libcatalyst-perl you found. Catalyst is a perl framework after all.
If this isn't what you wanted search a debian site about the right packet name.

[coLinux-users] colinux kernel recomp with gcc 3.3 or 3.4

[Michelangelo <mic...@gm...>]

Dear all, following George P Boutwell advice about colinux kernel
recompiling I found a "gotcha" I was not aware of, gcc version has to be <=
3.3.x
I'm using gentoo on colinux, with gcc 3.4, same version as the production
servers.
So I'm wandering what's "the right thing"(tm) to do:
1) - recompile the whole colinux daemon for win32 with gcc 3.4 (and a mingw
toolchain) then recompile the colinux kernel with gcc 3.4
or
2) - simply install a gcc 3.3 on the gentoo colinux then recompile the
colinux kernel
As a matter of fact I'd like to know if someone has some experience

[coLinux-users] catalyst in Debian CoLinux

[Ken P. <ke...@gm...>]

I've installed the lastest coLinux & debian on my XP. when I tried to

apt-cache search catalyst

however, the command returns something like this ,
libcatalyst-perl - The Elegant MVC Web Application Framework
and I just updated the default perl, but the upgraded perl is still a
little old, it is still 5.8.4.

how can I get Catalyst install in coLinux Debian?

[coLinux-users] colinux-xml2cfg a config file converter

[Henry N. <Hen...@Ar...>]

Hello!

http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/tools/coxml2cfg.zip

This wizard converts a coLinux XML configuration file into new format
as simple text file for coLinux version 0.7.x

This programm needs no to install.  After start must select the input
and outputfile.

Converter requires, that MSXML.DLL be already installed on the system.
It should run fine with any version of MSXML. Check MS Knowledge Base
Q269238 for versions of MSXML shipped with Windows & Internet Explorer.

It based on nsis-Installer, source is included in the zip file.

[coLinux-users] Stopping and restarting colinux

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has had any problems with
restarting/reconnecting colinux when stopping and
restarting colinux without rebooting Windows?
Occassionally, I have this problem on my Windows XP
machine.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [coLinux-users] Service starts but stops immediatly....?!?

[nelson p. <kit...@ho...>]

Found the problem...

The problem was stupid me, I wasnt uncompressing the BZ2 image. Now I 
downloaded the debian image and all works well, I can start debian and login 
as root.

What I need to know now, is how do i make colinux seen on the network as a 
seperate pc? I need to run sshd on it on the same network (192.168.1.0).

Colinux is running on my wireless XP laptop (192.168.1.101 DHCP Client), now 
i would like to assign a static IP address to the Colinux of 192.168.1.3

How can I achieve this as when I do ifconfig i get this:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:FF:49:21:30:00
          inet addr:192.168.0.40  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

I see the TAP-win32 interface in XP but i want it to be on the same network 
as XP (192.168.1.0)

Can someone help me on acheiving this?

Try to set the mac address to a fixed value in the xml file for the winpcap interface. 
Do you get any errors, dropped packets or overruns in colinux on eth1 if the windows connection gets lost?

Correct.  I have no problems with the tap/eth0 connection. The bridged

Not yet sure if i understand your setup.

1. You have a real ethernet card from windows bridged with winpcap to eth1 in colinux. You use that for internet connection from colinux.
2. You have a tap adapter in windows connected to eth0 in colinux and use that for connection to colinux.

If that is right, which connection gets lost?

Mr. Krull:

I am using colinux version 0.6.4. It is not being used as a Windows 
internet router. The ip123.456.789.01  is fictitious so as not to give 
out my real ip address.

These are the network config lines taken from my config.xml file:
    <network index="0" type="tap" name="colinux" />
    <network index="1" type="bridged" name="ethernet" />

Thanks for you assistance.

Regards,
Merrick

How is your colinux config?
Which version of colinux is running?
Are you using colinux as a internet router for windows?

What is this eth1 good for? It will never work with the address containing 456 or 789.

[coLinux-users] Windows networking becomes disabled when running colinux

Hi:

Occasionally when colinux is operating my Windows network connection 
drops out. Interestingly enough my colinux internet connection still 
works. My Windows network can only be restored by shutting down colinux.

At first I thought this problem occurred because Microsoft sets to 10 
the maximum number of simultaneous TCP-connections allowed - causing 
event 4226 in the event viewer. Using a registry hack I increased this 
limitation to100 max connections. Error 4226 is gone from my event log, 
however, the problem still persists.

Has anyone else experienced a problem similar to this? It occurs most 
often when the cpu is very busy (i.e. compiling code on colinux) or 
after leaving colinux running for long periods.

My colinux/Windows network configuration is attached below.

Thanks,
Merrick
