Hi Chris,
Ok, interface 0/1 connects to my linux box and without the "switchport
trunk allowed vlan 1,2" command it will let any Vlan through from my
Linux box. But how do I then configure the second port where my hosts
plugs into to allow more then 1 vlan through too them? Can I just remove
the "switchport access vlan 2" part and everything will go through
automatically? There's a wireless access point plugging into
Interface0/2 where each user connecting to the wireless interface has
its own subnet off IP addresses. There's a vlan interface added on the
linux box which acts as a gateway for each user.
interface FastEthernet 0/1 <TO Linux box>
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
interface FastEthernet0/2 <To Wireless Access Point>
switchport access vlan 2
spanning-tree portfast

You want to set the port on the Catalyst to be a trunk port.
Then run vconfig on the Linux box and setup the VLANs.
On the Catalyst 3500XL:
interface FastEthernet 0/1
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
A port in access mode cannot be placed on multiple VLANs. That's
what trunk lines are for.
To test it, leave off the "switchport trunk allowed vlan"
command. That will allow ALL vlans to run over the trunk line by
default.
Enjoy!
chris
