Networking problem

[Jacques Mony]

Hi,

 I have trouble with ReactOS networking. Here is what I've tried so far:

First, I have made most of the tests under qemu 0.7.2 running on
Windows 2000 (I have the same results on Linux and Windows XP... using
same version of qemu).

I use the option "-user-net".

In ReactOS, I configured my network as follow:

  Gateway: 10.0.2.2
  IP Address: 10.0.2.15
  Netmask: 255.255.255.0

  I did also give a value to the nameserver, but it doesn't matter for
the problem I have.

- I can ping 10.0.2.2 from ReactOS (I assume this tells me the
userland tcp/ip stack of qemu works properly, as well as ReactOS
settings).

On the host, I have a webserver (IIS) and an FTP server running, as
well as SSH.

>  From ReactOS: 
- If I type "telnet 10.0.2.2 80 " and then enter some HTTP request
(GET / HTTP/1.0), I will only get an amount (1 to many) of blank
lines. In other words: no content.

- If I type "ftp 10.0.2.2 ", the ftp client seems to send a username
by itself ("6-w" !?). So my FTP tests stop here.

- If I type "telnet 10.0.2.2 22", I will get the SSH version message,
and when I type something, I get a "protocol mismatch" error, which
looks normal.

- If I type "wget 10.0.2.2", it seems to connect (the webserver gets
the query), but then it will say it received empty data and will loop
doing this forever.

- I also tried lynx. Lynx gave me the most interesting results. I was
able to connect to the server, ask me for a cookie, receive some
headers and finally, since my password wasn't good, it gave me the IIS
permission denied page. HOWEVER, there were a lot of error messages
during the process.

   Here is the one that appeared the most often: "Alert!: Unexpected
read error"
        There were also a lot of "Alert!: Invalid header "....""

What I seem to understand is that some data is lost from the packets.
Something like final characters. I never had this kind of trouble with
other OS running under qemu, so I guess the problem is in ReactOS
TCP/IP stack. But I also seem to be the only one to have this kind of
problem.

Any idea where I should look first?

I'm pretty new to ReactOS and windows programming, but I'll do what I
can to provide more detail or... fix this.

Thanks.

Hi Jacques,

the thing is, as far as I know, networking is not yet fully
implemented into ReactOS.
It would be good to know, if you used the latest release of ReactOS
(0.2.7) or if you compiled ReactOS by yourself from svn.
Networking is considered to be working in ReactOS 0.3.0.
Since I'm also nwe to ReactOS, this is all I can tell you.
