Re: Installing Debian on Dell PowerEdge 2300 problem
Thanks, I was able to place a 2.2.5 kernel with the aic7xxx driver on the rescue disk and it boots now. K On Thu, 26 Aug 1999, Ian Redfern wrote: Your primary SCSI controller is an Adaptec AIC-7890/1 Ultra2 SCSI host adapter; your secondary (with the CD) is an Adaptec AIC-7860 Ultra SCSI host adapter (according to one of my PowerEdge 2300s running Debian 2.1). You need to search the mailing list archives for the aic7xxx SCSI driver and its conflict with the wd7000 driver and special command-line flags - people have produced special boot disks that work for machines with AIC7890s, as this is an ongoing problem.

Installing Debian on Dell PowerEdge 2300 problem
I'm trying to install debian on the dell, the second scsi controller is detected (it has only a cdrom drive) but the first one is not. Do I need a different rescue disk or just different parameters to the kernel. There is already RedHat on the system, but the kernel that comes with it does not work when placed on the rescue disk since it does not have all the install options compiled into it. Thanks in advance K
slink does not have lib6

How to have 2 NE200 cards in the same box
Hi All I'm trying to have two NE2000 cards in the same box, I have this two lines in /etc/modules ne io=0x340,irq=15 ne io=0x300,irq=5 The first card is configured fine, but not the second. If I switch the order then again the first one is fine. I have made a copy of ne.o to be called ne2.o and changed the modules file to have ne and ne2. This works, but it seems like a bad way of doing it, what is the correct way? K -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: vhost popper?
A simpler way would be to add a mapping in the pop server that first checks through the virtualuser table (what sendmail uses) for the email address requested. Then just uses (for example:) joe21 as the real mailbox. This way you don't haveto listen on different IP's, and you don't have to have other config files. So, user puts [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the username field of his pop client, your server translates this to joe21, and retrives the mail in a normal way. One way of making it easer is to call sendmail -bv [EMAIL PROTECTED] directly from the popserver and see that the output is.

Re: DEC tulip 10/100 ethernet

A different problem that I have with the tulip driver with the ASUS DEC10 card (based on DEC21040 chip) is that when I unplug the TP cable, I get 'Switching to AUI port', from then on I can't get it to use the TP port anymore,except by rebooting.
