gentoo on school domain

[remix]

i'm in a domain at school (vmware) and i want to enter it using linux
i'm trying right now from the livecd, how do i do it?

this is all the information i gather about this network. and all that i usually(windows) need to enter the school network.

-ip (range for my class) 10.4.6.2 - 254
i use 200 cause it isn't being used
-subnet mask 255.0.0.0 class a
-Default Gateway, none , or i haven't found it, doesn't show in windows properties.
-DNS servers 10.0.0.11 and 10.0.0.12
-domainname, honnet.edu



my resolv.conf has the correct information on it

[ryouga42]

What does ipconfig/all show on the Windows box? That should give you your default gateway. Without that, you probably can't get to the outside world no matter what you do.

[remix]

they disabled ipconfig, ping, and nslookup.
but i found that the gateway is
10.0.0.20

so what do i do ?
route add gw 10.0.0.20 default ??

[remix]

ok i added route add default gw 10.0.0.20
and here is my new routing table

Destination gateway genmask flags Iface
10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U eth0
loopback host.honnet.edu 255.0.0.0 UG lo
default hocisa.honnet.edu 0.0.0.0 UG eth0

i don't know if this is correct...
i also did

export http_proxy="http://john:f00b_r@hocisa.honnet.edu:8080"


hmmm.. still can't access outside network, i only need to for emerging apache mysql php_mod and some other stuff to set up my in-school webserver.

and its always nice to have access to the internet.

so how do i log on?

:bump:

[goulash]

are you the sys admin or a student

[remix]

student.

but i can log on to the domain with windows, are you saying its impossible for linux to log on to a win2k domain?
i know they don't block my computer cause of the OS, otherwise i wouldn't be able to ping other computers like i can now, right?
and there are linux classes, they use red hat / gnome.
is that what i need to access the outside world via linux? red hat?

[goulash]

hmm yeh the proxy server might require authorization from certain ip ranges so students cant bypass the filter . tried the proxy on port 3128? or find out what the ip/port of the proxy is for the redhat machines

[remix]

wouldn't the proxy port be 8080?
as in

hocisa.honnet.edu:8080

and i know that the usable ips are AT LEAST the ones being used in class
1-40

i don't know why they do it that way.
but the host names are 406-14 for room 406 computer 14
and the ip for this computer is 10.4.6.14

i try 10.4.6.200 so i won't step on anyones shoes by using a used ip, cause there aren't 200 computers in a class, but you might be right, so i tried a known ip (like the one next to me, that is OFF)
and i can still ping any computer in this building, but i can't
ping www.yahoo.com
or 63.250.206.138

[goulash]

sorry i cant help im no good at helping when im not there >.<
