Don't bother setting up the network on install, do it via linuxconf, and if you have two NICs LIE A BIT.

I cannot get the kernel to pick up my 3COM 3c509 (Etherlink III - UTP only) ISA network card. I am trying to connect 2 slackware boxes together to set up a "test" network for development. I am using a crossover 10BaseT cable to connect the machines. The pins have been verified using a pin tester as correctly crossed. Note: I have tried this all with the cable connected, and without. The system is a Pentium 166 using a Tyan Tiger III MB. Award BIOS revision 4.51 (1997). I have IRQ 10 set up as non-pnp (ISA Legacy) in the system bios. The machine is a dual boot machine running Windows95 and (now) Slackware 2.0.35. Note: The card works fine in Windows, and all hardware diagnostics pass in the DOS utilities, so the hardware should be ok. I used the 3COM supplied driver disk utility (3c5x9cfg.exe) in DOS to disable pnp detection on the card, and to set the IRQ to 10, and the IO to 0x300. (I have also tried IRQ 5 and io 0x320). I have recompiled the 2.0.35 kernel to include loadable module support, tcp/ip networking support, 3COM Cards (both statically), and the 3c509.o driver as a module (quite a few times actually). The process I am using is as follows: 'cd /usr/src/linux' ('linux' being a symbolic link to /linux-2.0.35) 'make menuconfig' (choose the options I want) 'make dep; make clean; make zlilo' 'make modules; make modules_install' reboot Note: occasionally I'll mix it up by replacing 'make zlilo' with 'make zImage' followed by copying usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage to /vmlinuz (the boot file indicated in lilo.conf) and running lilo to reset. Then rebooting. (I'm still new to the linux game and not entirely sure if one way is better than the other, though the zlilo method certainly seems less bothersome). I don't think any of the network information matters at this point, but the network addresses are set in /etc/networks, /etc/hosts, and /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 (IP = 195.1.1.1, Mask = 255.255.255.0, Network = 195.1.1.0, Broadcast = 195.1.1.255, no gateway at this point). The HOSTNAME and other information is where it should be (compliments of netconfig). I have included 'alias eth0 3c509' and 'options 3c509 irq=10' the conf.modules, and have the 3c509 card uncommented in the rc.modules file. Note: I have also tried rebooting without these lines, and after adding 'io=0x300' (which generates a different error), and with only the alias line. Same result each time. I have the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 card line reading: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} network ${NETWORK} I have tried adding 'broadcast ${BROADCAST}' as well, with no change in the situation. The startup message indicates the "device or resource is busy", followed by the SIO gibberish, and "eth0 not recognized" (which makes sense given the card did not work right). 'modprobe eth0' generates the same error. It indicates it's pulling the 3c509.o information, but that the "device or resource is busy". 'dmesg |more' stops logging before the card errors, and as such is pretty useless. 'cat /proc/ioports' shows the io range needed as wide open (no conflicts). 'cat /proc/interrupts' shows IRQ 10 is not being used by any other device.

I'm thinking about setting up a lan for my family now that we have 2 PCs - machine 1 (Celeron 300A with 64MB RAM) and machine 2 (Pentium 75 with 16MB RAM). What I want to do is have each in a separate room (they'll be about 15m apart) and set one up as a proxy/firewall and print server for the other while retaining the ability to have local users login directly to either machine. I would like to be able to remotely login to the server to update software - I guess I would need SSH for this.

Pim wrote in message 7l877v$dsh$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... snipped some technical jargon This ability to cache Layer 3 address tables is the key differentiator between router accelerators and Layer 2 switching products. Layer 2 switches must send all inter-subnet traffic to a router for path resolution, whereas router accelerators can intelligently forward traffic based on Layer 3 information if the address is already contained within its cached address tables But why ? Besides src/dest IP-addresses, the packets also contains src/dest. MAC-addresses so by using it's MAC address forwarding table the Layer-2 switch can do the same ? Suppose several endstations as well as several other Layer-2 switches are connected to a Layer-2 switch.

Thin-net is 10Mbit; fast enough for 16 or so stations. How to do your "user" thing: 1) Make only one '/home' partition in the whole net. (machine 1) And export it. 2) DO NOT create a /home partition on the other machines. If you can't install without it, make it real small (less than 50m). 3) When machine 2 boots, have it 'mount machine1:/home /home' This way, everybody sees '/home' on '/home', but there is only one copy of the data. (Mounting on top of an existing directory will mask the data in the "real" directory; you can use this trick to make 'net is down local user copies'.) 4) Put local copies of the (shared) applications in /usr (All machines have a /usr, and a /root, etc). Having local copies of executables (and /tmp, /scratch) will cut way down on network traffic. Note that root's home directory is /root; it's good to have root local to every machine. Make sure every system is mentioned in /etc/hosts, and you'll probably want to set up ".rhosts" on machine 1. Oh, and do yourself a BIG favor. Do a net search for the "linux documentation project".

I haven't seen any mention of games over this setup. I am in the planning stages of setting up such a network--but have not finished. Since there weren't other replies yet, I thought I'd pitch in. More than one player over the internet degrading game performance will depend on where the bottleneck is. A 486 can saturate a T1 line, so using an old machine for a router should not be a problem unless it's a 386. The only other place likely to be a bottleneck is the line out of the house (modem,cablemodem, etc.). Depending on the game and link speed, this could be a slowdown. The other link that might cause problems is the linke to the router. Assuming you are using a 10 mbit/s ethernet over a hub, two machines can adequately feed your router and a modem--assuming its something like a 56K getting a large fraction of that through to your ISP.

However, lower quality switch boxes (aka cheaper switchboxes) may have reflections that show up as ghosts on the monitor. Alternatively, you can just plug and unplug the monitor. If you are doing this a lot, go to a switchbox (the pin connector used on the monitor is not built for continual repluggings and you may eventually bend or damage a pin).

Of course, some compilers have done this more than others. :) I did not mean releases of the compiler, or releases of the standard library, both of which break binary-compatibility but will stabilize, eventually.

The same is true with C libraries, but C lacks some of the language features that create a dependency, and people already know about those which do. It is possible to build C++ libraries that are safe for old program binaries to link to, but it's harder. For example, you have to be very careful about what inline functions and virtual functions you expose in the public interface, and be sure not to change anything between releases that those interfaces depend on. This is a maturity issue. As people become aware of the problems, they arrive at the same solution. --

It's much simpler and easier to learn than C++, and yet is more powerful than C++ -- for example Dylan supports dynamic dispatch on more than just one argument of a function, plus Dylan has things such as lexically scoped local functions, anonymous functions, and closures, though i'm not sure it supports closures the way i would like g++ to do... How is that? See an example of closures in Dylan at the end... anyway, Dylan looks like a very potent language. however, until a safe compiler base is available (which means gcc basically), i am unlikely to switch. The Dylan I'm using (and helping to improve) -- Gwydion Dylan, aka "d2c" -- produces C code which is then compiled using gcc. That has several benefits: portability, known quality of code generation, ability to inspect intermediate C code to verify/understand it (and it's actually pretty readable -- d2c pretty-prints it and bases the C names on the original Dylan variables, so it's a bit easier to understand than the output of Stroustrup's "cfront" was), and ability to leave certain easy optomisations (such as inlining) to gcc. It's possible to call back and forth between Dylan and C code, so existing OS and other libraries can be used seamlessly from Dylan programs. At the moment you have to hand-code the interface routines in Dylan (as I've done below), but we're working on automatically producing the interface routines from C header files and this works for simple cases (not yet callback functions) now. and C++ seems to be there to stay (as unfortunate as it may be for better languages). C++ is certainly going to be around, and the best language for some purposes, for many many years to come. It's better than what came before it. I was an early-adopter of C++ (in 1989), back when it was arguably in a more rudimentary state than Dylan is today. Much as I saw the potential of C++ at the time, it was far from a certainty that it would take over from C as it has. Stroustrup did a number of things right. I think the most important of those were link-compatability with C, the philosophy that you don't pay for advanced features if you don't use them, and compiling to C in the reference implementation to ensure easy and widespread portability. With d2c we have the same properties, plus the compiler being "free software" in the FSF sense. OTOH, Harlequin's Dylan for Windows is free for personal use, but not "free". I personally think that d2c is therefore vital to the penetration and acceptance of Dylan, and Harlequin seem to agree because they are cooperating with the Gwydion Dylan project and are giving assistance such as open-sourcing some libraries written by them. C++ also maintained source code compatability with C, but Java has shown that the market will accept deviation from this. Dylan's syntax is not as close to C's as is Java's syntax, but it's not so far away as to be shocking to anyone who has programmed in the C/Pascal/Algol family. Unlike, for example, SmallTalk, Lisp or FORTH, each of which can send C programmers running screaming. I tend to think that in terms of adoption Dylan today is about at the stage that C+

Since there is no cgi the machine sits at a load of .25 or less most of the time with no obvious problems.

The browser connects to the site, but then sits there waiting indefinately for a reply. Why is this. I don't just want to set the mtu to 296 because this linux box is an ip masq gateway.

Any ideas? thanks Lucas Try using 576 as your ppp mtu size. 1500 is used on hardwired ethernet network connection because TCP/IP works best with a bigger MTU over fast connections like this. However, ppp works differently than ethernet and obviously isn't as fast. This is a serious over simplification, but if you want more info, there are good sites out there that can describe the problems, solutions, and whys much better. If you leave the MTU on the windows boxes at 1500 (assuming an ethernet network) and then set the Linux mtu, then the kernel will take care of the math and everything should work fine. -- Peter Buelow -- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Crossposted-To: alt.uu.comp.os.linux.questions,alt.os.linux.redhat,comp.os.linux.help Subject: Re: Help!

We are forced to use dhcp. oh the 146 box is win 95 and the other is linux (red hat 6, 2.2.10) so when I do: smbclient -L tk421 (which is the linux box) I get : Added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0 Password: Domain=[SSPG] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.3] Sharename Type Comment - --- fooDisk foo mp3Disk mp3 tmpDisk temporary files IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Why aren't you at your post?) Server Comment ---- DLTTST TK421Why aren't you at your post? WorkgroupMaster ---- SSPG DLTTST sometimes I get a list of the other machines in the net but sometimes I don't. I can't figure it out. now I can see my windows machine (tk422) and my friend's down the hall but if I do: [erict@tk421 /etc]$ nmblookup -B tk421 __SAMBA__ Sending queries to 0.0.0.0 10.70.98.5 __SAMBA__00 [erict@tk421 /etc]$ nmblookup -B tk422 '*' Sending queries to 0.0.0.0 10.70.98.5 *00 they both give the IP of the linux machine even though tk422 is the windows machine on a totally different subnet... I think my hosts file is messed up. but I can't really use it anyway since we use dhcp... then my friends machine: [erict@tk421 /etc]$ nmblookup -B eduen '*' Sending queries to 10.70.96.196 name_query failed to find name * I am tired and confused, and it is friday. can anyone point me to a setup using dhcp and two subnets in a network environment that I don't control. ie. I don't want to be domain master... nmblookup -d 2 '*' gives me only a response from my own machine but If I set the netmask to 0.0.0.0 then I get a whole bunch but still only in my 10.x.x.x subnet (is that even a subnet?

I'm afraid mounting the CD-ROM to others boxes is not an option. But here are a few details I left out in my previous message: Exports file seems to be set up correctly and so does daemon mountd. Deamon nfsd seems to have some problems though. I seemed to have read somewhere that when executing rpcinfo -p I should see 10 2 tcp 111 portmapper 10 2 udp 111 portmapper 15 1 tcp 744 mountd 15 2 udp 744 mountd 15 1 tcp 747 nfsd 15 2 udp 747 nfsd But when I do, I seem to be missing 15 2 udp 747 nfsd Syslog looks fine except for: mountd[63]: exports file has anon entries, but host mountd[63]: has non-private IP address

I am new to the Linux world and will need a lot of help in the near future... if it wasn't for the course that I have taken last week, I would still be blinded by Microsoft's crappy Windows OS. Let's put it this way, since I learned what Linux can do, I am more that excited!

My real question is that I have downloaded Linux (Redhat) 6.0 from ftp.cdrom.com yesterday and would like to make a bootable CD-ROM distribution of it. I used Windows NT workstation and Adaptec EZ CD Creator to burn a CD. The result, failure! I think the files downloaded were good but I was stupid enough to burn the CD using Juliet format instead is ISO 9660. However, will ISO 9660 read / register the long filenames in Linux?

Your DNS server will then appear as a root nameserver. For most applications, this is unnecessary - just set up forward and reverse files and forget about the root domain. The only problem is that your server will not issue denials for addresses you can't get to (like "ftp.cdrom.com") N.B. - ONLY do this if you are totally isolated from the Internet. If you have a firewall or masqueraded connection, sort out DNS via the firewall.

I have changed the file permissions to 700 for both files, the owner and group for the files are the same and "diff test1 test2" brings up no differences.

It will hopefully be something that someone knows the answer to on the spot from previous experience. If there is any extra info required, please tell me and I'll try to get hold of it.

I'm not exactly sure how long it takes to get back on, it's hard to time it because I have to re-attempt a connection every so often, and if it works I don't know when it would have started to work. If I disconnect manually, this problem doesn't happen. I can ping the servers, I can use Gamespy to get updates from them, and I can see all the people in the game, but for some reason when I try to join, with, say, Half-Life or Quake 2 (the only two games I tried, they use different ports so I don't think that's the problem), it simply tries and fails to connect. I have disconnected manually from here and reconnected, and the problem stays (in fact I think the timer gets reset). Before you say it's anything to do with the ISP, there's a few more things I should say. Firstly, it never happened when I connected direct with the Windows box. Secondly, if I reset the Linux box and then reconnect, it's instantly fine and working. Thus, I'm pretty sure

[SNIP] In a previous post, someone said they wanted to be able to call in on a voice line, enter a numeric password (touch-tone), and hang up. The server would then dial back if the correct password had been entered. To do this you'll need a modem with a DTMF decoder. Unless I'm mistaken (and I could be) a voice modem will do this. You also need some kind of software that sits on the modem waiting for a call (not mgetty unless I'm mistaken again). This hypothetical software would answer the phone after so many rings and wait for the numeric password somehow. After verifying the password, it would have to release the modem and exec diald, pppd, or something to allow/start a ppp connection.

NFS uid/gid problems Date: Thu, 24 Jun 1999 12:39:57 -0400 I am running Linux as an NFS server and Solaris x86 as an NFS client. No matter what I do, the uid's and gid's don't seem to map correctly, meaning that if I create a file on the client, it maps as something like nobody4 (65534). I tried the map_static entry in the exports file to no avail. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I simply want uid's and gid's to map equivalently across the systems. We had a situation like that a while back. The simple solution was to replicate the passwd files for the two machines so they both use the same UID's (it did require us to write a script to get them in sync) -- then we didn't have any problems. The other gotcha was Solaris can assign big number USERids, which are intolerable to 5.2 -- we had to go in an reassign a bunch of those. But with the same password/shadow files it should work just fine. You have to be a bit careful with some of the systems IDs, since they map differently in Linux/Solaris -- but it seems to work fine.

twork segment, so I can connect to machines on the Thin CoAx fine - i.e. the server and maybe a laptop when it connects. The Linux box remembers the routes fine. However, after booting the linux box I want to telnet in and use something like MI/X to set up the box from the comfort of my own desk, not the machine cupboard where the phone line is! If I ping the linux box, then it responds. But it can't ping across the server unless I manually enter the route (route add -net 192.168.1.0 subnet 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.2.1). I have (on a number of occasions) given the LInux box this information. I've added it using the RedHat network tool. I've edited 'static-routes' in the boot information. But if I log out from root, or reboot the machine, it gives network unreachable when I try to ping 192.168.1.26 until I add the route manually So what the heck am I doing wrong ?? Why does the Linux box forget about the route to the STP network? If you know, please help. Cheers, Tom Lane reply to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] P.S.

Then after I close the networking menu and reopen it, it would be deactivated again. Whenever I would call linuxconf through the xterm window without a trailing "" behind it, and then choose to activate eth0, it gave me the message saying "eth0 delayed" - and then later "no such device eth0" (or something to the effect of these msgs).. So I had the idea to try and do a reinstall of RH through a Win98 shared drive. I created the supplemental disk it said I required and when prompted to choose a networking card, I chose the NE2000 compatible ISA card. I let it autoprobe it only to see that it could find no such device. I read the card's manual and tried to specify the i/o address and irq info of the card to RH but it still could not find the card.

You shouldn't fsck a mounted file system, but for the root file system you can as a compromise leave it read only, so you won't check a file system that is being modified by using it at the same time. The warning you get is that the filesystem check *can't* proceed on a RW mounted partition. It *won't* run e2fsck! The original question was as far as I understood: why you couldn't leave the root file system in read only mode like you can (supposed to be able to) with a separate /usr file system. As I understood it, this was the goal; however, in an attempt to do this the user was no longer allowed to login at all and needed to fix it. My suggestions should allow the user to login and fix the improperly configured /etc/rc.d/rc.S file. Another alternative is to boot without init.

ERROR Date: Thu, 01 Apr 1999 22:00:19 GMT I've run into this problem twice. The first time it was because I had a windmodem and didn't know it (I thought it seemed awefully inexpensive). The second time, however, (this time with a US Robotics internal modem with jumpers) the problem was with the IRQ and COM (cuan [where n is a number between 0 and 3] in Linux) settings. Now if your modem is external, you will have to consult your documentation on how to change the IRQ and COM settings, but if it is internal, the only way to configure the IRQ and COM settings manuyally is with jumpers. If you don't have any jumpers, you either have a PnP (Plug and Play) modem or you have a windmodem. I will assume that you do have jumpers. The problem I ran into was that my mouse (serial mouse, not PS/2) was already using COM1. Keep in mind that COM1 and COM3 use IRQ 4. COM2 and COM4 use IRQ 3. So, I originally had my modem set to COM1 (IRQ4) so I just switched the IRQ jumber to IRQ3 and the COM jumper to COM2. I don't know if this addresses you problem, but this has been my experience. -Matt p.s.

Consider Midnight Commander. It has a Norton Commander0like interface, not XTree, but it's a very nice (and flexible) file manager. There are both text-based and GUI versions around.

Here is what I have: I have a peer to peer network with 2 Win98 boxes and one Linux box. One of the Wintel boxes is hooked to my ISDN line and on it is installed Sygate. Sygate is a software product that lets me share my ISDN connection. It runs as a "service" on the Wintel box and is setup using DHCP protocol. On my other Wintel machine running as the "client", I didn't have to configure anything as the Sygate software automatically assigned IP and took care of DNS. But I need to know what I need to set on the Linux box to get it to work. Right now on the Linux box, if I enter the IP of a web site, it will connect to the site properly. But if I use the domain name, it times out. That tells me the DNS is messed up somewhere. The techs at Sygate told me all I need to set on the Linux box is an unused IP address on my network and the DNS of my ISP. I've done both, but DNS is still not working.

If it's a first time thing for you it might take a day or two. If you know what you're doing you can have Linux screaming along in under a few hours. Also, heed the advice about the supported hardware list. DO NOT get a Creative SBLive if you want audio under Linux. It's a great card using Windows, but is totally useless with Linux. And be very careful about SCSI cards. Most ethernet cards will work, but I recommend the Netgear FA310TX (tulip driver). It's PCI, fast, very cheap and well supported now. And also consider an overclocked Celeron 300A with the venerable BH6. It's a very inexpensive combination that, wtith a good CPU fan, should give you great results. (Necessary disclaimer: You will void your CPU warranty by doing this and it might not work at all.) My experience with doing this is that the MB and CPU typically work very well. Where you are most likely to have problems is with RAM. Make sure you buy PC 100 rated stuff that you can take back if it doesn't work. Final thoughts about a new system. Since you don't play games, the speed of the processor shouldn't be your primary concern at this point. Build yourself a machine with really high quality components that has tons of built in CPU upgradability. (e.g. spend your cash on a killer 19" or 20" monitor, a 16MB high bandwidth video card, 128MB RAM, and a U2W SCSI controller running a Barracuda or Cheetah.

If it's a first time thing for you it might take a day or two. If you know what you're doing you can have Linux screaming along in under a few hours. Also, heed the advice about the supported hardware list. DO NOT get a Creative SBLive if you want audio under Linux. It's a great card using Windows, but is totally useless with Linux. And be very careful about SCSI cards. Most ethernet cards will work, but I recommend the Netgear FA310TX (tulip driver). It's PCI, fast, very cheap and well supported now. And also consider an overclocked Celeron 300A with the venerable BH6. It's a very inexpensive combination that, wtith a good CPU fan, should give you great results. (Necessary disclaimer: You will void your CPU warranty by doing this and it might not work at all.) My experience with doing this is that the MB and CPU typically work very well. Where you are most likely to have problems is with RAM. Make sure you buy PC 100 rated stuff that you can take back if it doesn't work. Final thoughts about a new system. Since you don't play games, the speed of the processor shouldn't be your primary concern at this point. Build yourself a machine with really high quality components that has tons of built in CPU upgradability. (e.g. spend your cash on a killer 19" or 20" monitor, a 16MB high bandwidth video card, 128MB RAM, and a U2W SCSI controller running a Barracuda or Cheetah. (You may want to put in an extra case fan if you opt for one of the big, bad SCSI drives. They are literally very hot!) Whatever you decide to do, have a blast.!

I don't really want to purchase another modem, or put in another phone line. Is there a way to share the modem for these duties? I don;t know about diald, but what you want is what I do all the time. I connect out by using a ppp script (see axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.html for details) and have mgetty sitting there ready to answer when I am not using it. I have it on ringback, so that normal phone calls can also use the line without getting the modem screaming at you. The only important thing is to make sure that you run pppd with the lock option. Otherwise mgetty goes mad seeing the phone in use and feeling it should be handling it. Now, having both diald and mgetty trying to manage the phone can make things difficult. If diald can be set up to put in a lock file each time it makes a connection, then it should be fine, and mgetty and diald should be able to share. (of course one difficulty would come if the route is left set up to route things through diald and it then tried tomake the connection when it is already made through mgetty.) Ie, pppd + mgetty is easy. diald+mgetty I am not sure about. The idea here is, when I'm home, I want to use the modem for the Internet access (and it works fine already!). When I'm at work, I'd like access to my home network through a dial-in line, bringing up PPP, hopefully, so I can have forwarding access to my home network.

The clones may not be recognized by any but the latest of the Linux Tulip drivers, though. You can obtain the latest from: http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/tulip-devel.html You'll need to take the tulip.c file and put it in your kernel source directory (in drivers/net, IIRC), then recompile either modules or the kernel, depending upon how your system is configured. Now, if your card is old enough to

Im not sure that the drivers i were given were even complete. it came with 4 files, 2 c scripts (space.c and rlt8029.c (the card's brand is realtek)) a Makefile file and a config.in .no configure, and as the only way i know of installing stuff (save using rpm) is ./configure, make, make install i am stuffed. I have tried ignoring the fact that i don't have the drivers working in the hope that somehow a default linux ethernet driver will kick in and configured the card in netcfg.but to no avail. i don't think there is an entry for /dev/eth0 (which the card is) ive tried setting the DNS and DHCP servers up as eth1 and eth2 in the hope that this would help but it hasn'tas my knowledge of networking is very shaky i haven't thought of anything else to try...if anyone can help me that would be great...i can mail a copy of the drivers. Also, is there a file manager similar to XTGold in linux? and one last thingive been recommended X11amp, but after d'ling it ive run into the brick wall of library dependanciesthe program itself needs a recent version of the gtk, which in turn requires an equally new version of glib...after downloading both, and following all instructions i have been able to install glib and get it fully functional, and install gtkbut when i try to install X11amp it doesn't detect gtki had problems attempting to get gtk to detect glib, but it did happen in the end after much editing of ld.so.conf as advised in one of the readme files. a similar file for gtk did mention environment variables or something like that, but i have no idea what they are. if anyone could plz help me with any of those problems, that would be great. thanks in advance -dionysus -- From: Coffee [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Can a regular user activate and deactivate dialup connection?

Date: Sat, 27 Mar 1999 18:03:14 GMT I have been unable to copy large directories (~100 files @ 2.5 MBytes) from my new Samba server to either one of my two Windows 98 clients. Inevitably, Windows dies with the following error message midway through the copy: "Cannot copy filexyz: the specified network resource or device is no longer available." At this point, I've ruled out a bad configuration by doing the tests described in diagnosis.txt, and satisfied myself that this is not a hardware problem. What's my next step if I want to get to the bottom of this mess? How does one go about debugging problems with file transfers? Here's the low down on my network: 1 Samba Server [unable to copy files to Win 98 clients] Redhat 5.2 Samba 1.9.18p10 Celeron 333 13 Gig HD and 128MB RAM SMC 9432 NIC using the epic100 ethernet driver 1 Samba Server [works great!] Redhat 5.0 Samba 1.9.17p4 Intel 486 700 MB HD, 32 MB RAM SMC ISA NIC 10 MB/s 2 Win 98 clients 1 10/100 Ethernet Switch My smb.conf is stock redhat with the following modifications: In global settings I added: create mask = 770 preserve case = yes ; hate it when Samba changes case on me socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=4096 SO_SNDBUF=4096 ; performance is abominable otherwise os level = 33 ; seems to be necessary if I am to view My shares are as follows: /home/goppelt [implicit-my Unix home directory] /home/goppelt/sound /home/goppelt/music I don't believe that the hardware such as the cables, switch and Ethernet cards are responsible for the copy failures for the following reason: 1. The Win98 clients have no problem whatsoever transfering the directories at high speed between each other using MS-Networking. 2. I replaced the Switch with an old 10Base-T hub and got the same behavior albeit at slower speeds. I've watched the transfers using Windows sysmon and what appears to happen is this: samba quickly ramps up to 2-3 MB/s. The transfer continues at 2-3 MB/s for a while then at some point falls off to zero where it either stays or after a pause of 10-20 seconds picks up again. If it stays at zero, Windows dies.

The laptop does not have an ethernet connection independent of the dock at work, so that isn't an option. The current goal: Connect the laptop and desktop in the simplest way possible to tranfer (largish) files. Alternative 1: Set up PPP connection with each computer having a separate IP address, etc. I haven't seen this discussed anywhere in connection w/ the null modem cable, including the LDP. Any thoughts? It isn't discussed because there's nothing to discuss. This is the most basic mode of operation of pppd, everything else (dial-up, dial-in etc) is an additional complication on top. Just run pppd on the two machines: pppd {port} {speed} {local-IP} noauth You may have to delete /etc/ppp/options as some distrubutions put silly defaults in there. You don't actually need "noath" on current versions of pppd but may need it in future versions so it's worth getting into the habit.

I am unable to work effectively because (a) I am not recognized on the network as a full user -- when I try to use WP Mail or Calendar or Scheduler, it tells me "access denied"; when I try to log in using the Netware login utility, it says:, "(shell) E:\LOGINlogin LOGIN-4.13-905: This utility was unable to initialize the country information". (b) The free space shown on the network in DOS is always "0" and one out of every 5 times I try to look at directories in WordPerfect DOS, it shows me there is nothing there or only one out of hundreds of directories. If I play with it for a while the directories show back up again eventually - for no reason I can identify. [c] I can't load any DOS volumes beyond k:, even though I am using exactly the same procedure, as far as I can tell, to do so. I need, for example the "w:" directory. I do not presently have a "lastdrive" command, which did not seem to affect anything one way or the other. I mount the volume with "ncpmount -S [the Novell volume] /mnt/e: -U ftp -n" The first time I give the command, the system responds: "ncpmount: No primary IPX interface found when trying to find [the Novell volume]". The second time I use the command, it does not give a response, and the volume appears to be loaded. Within my config.sys in the hdimage, I have the following, where "d:", which is my local actual /dev/hda3, is used as a place-holder to create the drive letters I really don't need on the network:: device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/d: [becomes d:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/e:/sys [becomes e:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/f: [becomes f:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/d: [becomes g:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/h: [becomes h:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/e:/sys [becomes i:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/d: [becomes j:]] device=c:\emufs.sys /mnt/k: [becomes k:]] In /mnt/, f:, h: and k: are defined as links to the appropriate subdirectory of e:/sys/, so that the above works in DOSEmu config.sys.

Hi all, I have been lurking around the c.o.l newsgroups for awhile and haven't seen a problem like this one asked. I have two computers we'll call them COMP-A and COMP-B for talk sake. COMP-A is running Linux Only. COMP-B is a tri-boot Win98-WinNT 4.0-Linux (Don't ask) Anyway when COMP-B is booted to Linux or WinNT I have no networking problems at all; however Win98 is unable to send or receive ping packets to/from COMP-A This tells me the hardware is working and seated in the slot correctly. I think I have it narrowed down to Win98's routing table. Here it is.. Active Routes: Network Address Netmask Gateway Address Interface Metric 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0192.168.1.254 192.168.1.2 1 127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0127.0.0.1 127.0.0.11 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0192.168.1.2 192.168.1.21 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.255127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 1 192.168.1.255 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.21 224.0.0.0 224.0.0.0 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.21 255.255.255.255255.255.255.255192.168.1.2 0.0.0.0 1 (I'm terribly sorry if the format gets lost) According to BillyWare's help files everything seems ok until the last line where the interface is 0.0.0.0The help file says that is the way Win98 sends packets to the network. If thats the case then it's wrong it should be 192.168.1.2 but the question is how do I change it? if I try to delete it using: route delete 255.255.255.255 it says : bad destination address 255.255.255.255 if I try to add it again using: route add 255.255.255.255 mask 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.2 metric 1 it says: bad destination address 255.255.255.255 Win 98 will ping loopback (127.0.0.1) and its IP (192.168.1.2) so TCP/IP seems to be installed correctly By the way .. On Win NT here is the last line 255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.2 so NT is correct. (and it works).

My email reader (Agent) offers no recovery mechanism once email is deleted, so I'm appealing to the Good Samaritan to resend his words of wisdom on how to deal with default routing. TIA, Original post follows Hi Steph, Here's what I do to get around that same problem. It seems that eth0 is the default route, and you're actually pinging your internal network. After starting X, I first issue the command: route del default Then I open the Network Configurator from Control Panel, select interfaces, select ppp0, and click Active button. This initiates the dial-out and I'm connected properly. I don't know why, but if I reboot, the default route is restored, so I have to go through this routine each time. It feels like a kludge, but, hey, I'm still learning.
