LAN with NAT
I had a tough time getting colinux networking to work through my wireless LAN since I already use NAT and the colinux NAT conflicts with it.
I solved the problem by changing the coLinux NAT IP address range from 192.168.0.X to 10.10.10.X i.e. the coLinux IP went from 192.168.0.40 to 10.10.10.40 and then it works just fine.
I launch colinux using the following bat file:
netsh interface ip set address name = "TAP Connection" source = static addr = 10.10.10.1 mask = 255.255.255.0 colinux-daemon.exe -t nt
Here is the xml config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<colinux>
<block_device index="0" path="\DosDevices\d:\coLinux\debian-3.0r0.ext3" enabled="true"/>

<bootparams>root=/dev/cobd0</bootparams>
<image path="vmlinux"/>
<memory size="64"/>
<network index="0" type="tap" name="TAP"/>
</colinux>
Here is the debian /etc/network/interfaces file:

home notebook with 512MB RAM
Here's a working xml config file from tdeagan's XP home notebook with 512MB RAM (tim at deagan dot net) that sets the colinux machine up for:
- 82MB of memory (hey, that's the best it seemed to be stable with)
- A second 1GB cobd file that got wiped and remounted as /usr after copying the original /usr to it
- A swapfile -- look up how to make this image in the devlist archive or look at this Wiki page.

I also use a cygwin.bat (or cygwin.cmd) file that allows me to get ncurses to work right (note env variable set up prior to running cygwin):

Hope this helps someone

Transparent bridging example
Transparent bridging example. This essentially gives my colinux instance its own nic.

Debian
My configuration of coLinux using the Debian image.
It took me a long time before I understood how networking worked, but it is in fact very simple.
My Windows computer is running ICS (Internet Connectivity Sharing), so I have two network card:
- NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Controller (connected to my cable modem)
- Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet (connected to my Linksys 5-port workgroup switch)
I wanted my coLinux to be able to access the net. So I bridge it to the LAN NIC (192.168.0.1), giving it a random mac address (not the same as the Marvell as I originally thought!). Very simple!
Now, when I start coLinux, I can either get a DHCP address from Windows ICS or set an IP in the range 192.168.0.0/24.

Knoppix? Replace vmware given RH9?
Does anyone have a working config for knoppix?
Does anyone have a working config to replace vmware given RH9 installed on partitions 2/3/4?
Need COFS example
We need to Insert an XML config file with a COFS setup here.. I'm trying to get one running. Either that, or offer a CommandLineReference on the wiki, because I'm trying to get COFS running and am currently using an XML file. I might convert over to using command line arguments for the time being, if it's easier to get COF working.. we should have more info on the wiki here about the available command line arguments in Command Line Reference --LarsOlson.
There is a brief explanation here:
http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/source/0.8.0-doc/cofs.txt
http://wiki.colinux.org/wiki/CofsDevice
For the newest version of coLinux do this:
Edit coLinux.config file (or whatever you choose to name the file) - Add one line like this:
cofs0=c:\
Now start coLinux and type this:
mkdir /mnt/windows mount -t cofs 0 /mnt/windows
To "use" what you just did type this:
ls -l /mnt/windows
That will give you a directory listing of your c:\ drive. You can specify a "non-root drive directory" (EG: c:\somewhere) and then type the remaining commands the same way.
Then when you type "ls -l /mnt/windows" the directory c:\somewhere will be the "psuedo-root-directory" - by that I mean that you can NOT type "ls -l /mnt/windows/.." and view the directory "c:\" .
That protects your "c:" drive's root directory (not to be confused with coLinux's "/" directory or coLinux's "/root" directory _OR_ any directory owned by "root" ;-) ).
Debian again
- ) Another satisfied customer :) Here's my Config File in full for anyone who wants to see it... I was kicking myself in the ass because I didn't realize you have to EXTRACT THE DEBIAN KERNAL BEFORE YOU CAN USE IT!

<!-- This line needs to point to your root file system.
For example change "root_fs" to the name of the Debian image.

Block Device Aliasing: You can now handle most dual-boot issues
by adding an alias="devname" to block_device. i.e. alias="hda",
alias="hda1" You can do this for SCSI as well as IDE. You need
to be aware that if you add an alias, you need to change your
bootparams root="devname" appropriately (you may need to use
devfs naming in some situations). -->

Mepis?
Can anyone help me? I need a Config that will work with MEPIS, on a dual-boot Win-XP Home PC
Networking with SLIRP (for Internet) and TAP (for X server)
TAP configuration in Windows (see note 1):
IP address: 192.168.37.10 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.37.10
colinux xml file:
<network index="0" type="slirp" /> <network index="1" type="tap" />
I use Xming for my X server:
Xming.exe -ac -fullscreen -clipboard
In colinux, with Debian:
In /etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.37.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.37.0 broadcast: 192.168.37.255 #gateway 192.168.37.10
To run an X client:
~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.37.10:0 ~$ xterm
In colinux, with Gentoo:
In /etc/conf.d/net (see note 2):
config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) config_eth1=( "192.168.37.20/24")
In /etc/ssh/sshd_config (see note 3):
X11Forwarding yes HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key ServerKeyBits 2048 PermitRootLogin no RSAAuthentication no PasswordAuthentication no UsePAM yes
I'm not sure how much of that is necessary. I got it from http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/infrastructure/config-ssh.xml
To run an X client:
~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start ~ # /usr/sbin/sshd
Start PuTTY in Windows and log in as user.
~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.37.10:0 ~$ xterm
Notes:
1. In the IP addresses , 37, 10 and 20 are arbitrary. I took them from the examples on the Network page. 2. In my Gentoo image there was no eth1 device, so I had to generate it myself: cd /etc/init.d ln -s ./net.lo net.eth1 3. In Gentoo, I couldn't get colinux to open the display, without using ssh. There was no ssh host key, so I had to generate it myself: ssh-keygen -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh_host_key -N
