Boxes are called "flanger" (our box) which is not running a firewall but has 
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/rp_forward = 1 and "desdemona" (their box) which has a packet 
filtering firewall running that should have no filtering for device ppp0 because that 
device is marked as "internal" (box also has 2 ethernet NICs, eth0 which is "external" 
and connects to the medical school's network then on via firewall to the internet and 
eth1 which is "internal" and connects to the LAN with the Win 2k client PCs on it).

Subject: Linux kernel hanging with certain networking configuration - uncertain of relevant maintainer

Hello,

Sorry to bother you if you're the wrong person to contact, I got your
name from the MAINTAINERS list in /usr/src/linux on my distribution
(kernel 2.4.4).  If you are the wrong person could you tell me where I
should go please?

We have successfully used a linux server in our small office for a
year now and it has been almost entirely stable.  Recently I
configured a VPN to connect to one of our client sites.  I installed a
linux server at that site also, because they are behind a firewall
over which I have no control (being on a medical school's network) I
used the method described in the Firewall Piercing mini-howto.  Namely
I configured pppd to run ssh to connect from that machine to ours here
and run pppd on this end, once the tunnel is set up both ends add
routes through it to each other's subnets in the ip-up scripts on
either end (neither end is using PPP for any other connections, both
are connected to the "outside world" via ethernet NICs).

This tunnel is largely stable and satisfactory but if intensive load
is placed on it (the reliable, reproducible load I use is a remote
control software package called PC Duo) then the server machine at our
end hangs and has to be rebooted using the reset button on the front
or a power off/on cycle.  The machine becomes completely unresponsive
to pinging from other machines on our LAN, the keyboard becomes
unresponsive and the screen freezes.

I understand that this is called a "kernel panic" but, unlike other
reports I have seen on the internet, there is no "oops" dump thing
that comes up on the screen - the screen simply freezes.

To add to the mystery I have found this problem with both the OpenSSH
package and the non-commercial SSH package (v3.2.3) from ftp.ssh.com
PLUS I have also seen something similar where I ran an SSH client on a
Windows PC here that connected to the SSH daemon on their firewall
with the relevant port for PCDuo control forwarded and then ran an ssh
client on that firewall machine through to an SSH daemon on the linux
box I support in our client's office, again forwarding the port.  This
configuration doesn't use ppp at any point yet when I ran PCDuo
control over that connection it worked briefly then hung their server,
which again had to be rebooted!

Can you help at all?  Is there some way of getting this "oops" output
from linux if that would help?

Yours with regards,
Carl Peto
