If you are on a permanent connection (and even if you are not), how about
running NTP on your machine? It synchronizes with outside time servers,
and monitors and compensates for the clock drift.
The NTP home page is located at: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/
I had problems with the ntp4 series, but the xntp3 works well here.
Hope this helps,
Cedric.

I think you are right. There is a great deal of difference in what
100-200 million Windows users take for granted and what
Unix users assume cuts the mustard. It's as if the unix community
has been locked in the closet with the server for twenty years.
Few in the Unix world seem to have noticed all of that stuff
whizzing in and out of the world's servers: html formatted messages
with audio and video clips attached or embedded, compound
documents passed around the world by large corporations,
video conferencing done by families dispursed around the nation,
etc. If you go to a web page in Windows and you don't have the
necessary software to display the page, you just download it off
of the page and keep right on going.
Browsers, financial programs, video cam software, digital camera
software, presentation software, group project management soft-
ware, online banking capable software, self-updating software...
what is taken for granted in the Windows world hasn't suitable
counterparts in the Linux world.
Windows users attracted to Linux by the media hoopla are going
to be disappointed. The lack of a linux news reader that compares
to what is available in the Windows world is just one example.
>From the discussions that take place in these newsgroups, it
seems that the average unix user hasn't any idea what can be
done with Windows desktop software.
Suggestions that the guy looking for capable news reader set up
a newsgroup server and read its output with a console app are
really very sad.

It might help if you will post the results of the following:
cat /proc/interrupts
cat /dev/sndstat
and the cont. of you /etc/conf.modules
Are you using isapnp tools. If so, it would also help if you would post that
too.

Ok, mate. I appreciate your concern. I have read thru the documentation
(HOWTO on setting up your sound card) and followed everything ... it took me
some time. It sounds to me liike I'm doing something dumb... I have 6
machines I service on win9x so I know that what I'm doing on the hardware
side is right - the settings (220,5,1 & 5) are entered. The make config gave
no error message, but when I recompiled the kernel thru X (my linux
installation is brand new, so I haven't touched anything [by the way, it's a
SUSE 5.3), and restarted, I did not see the "Sound initialisation" anywhere
in the dmesg. And thus the sound doesn't work. The HOWTO says to do it again
and check that the sound settings file config creates has the right info. It
does. Is the compilation for the kernel wrong? Is there a batch file to run
within the sound drivers dev directory to do this right?

Date: Thu, 04 Mar 1999 09:41:00 -0600
This has never happened to me so I'm not really sure what's going on but
all evidence is pointing to a hacking. I first noticed that my Perl/CGI
scripts wouldn't work anymore ("Insecure $ENV{PATH} while running
setuid" is the error) so I telnet in to find that I can't. So I walk
down the hall to where the Linux box lives and see that there are a
series of failed login attempts displayed. This is very curious indeed
so I log in and reboot. After reboot I am again able to telnet in but
the CGI error still occurs. I log in and find several odd things in my
home directory --> ".BitchX", "nausia", and "nausia1.5.tar.gz"
As I said, this looks like a hack to me but I've never experienced one
before so I'm not sure of anything. What do I do?

The goal was not to rewrite the world, rather it was to see if modern
high-level languages can succesfully be used for systems programming,
which is presently the domain of C/C++ and assembly. They have a good
paper on implementing the TCP/IP stack in ML which discusses the
advantages, and disadvantages of using high-level programming

My guess about the hangs is that from location "y", you can't get to the
system that you set up as your name server at location "x". So you have
to
wait for the DNS stuff to time out when each network service starts.
The
most likely reason for that (in turn) is that you didn't change your
gateway
when you changed IP address.
Exactly how to make this change is dependent on your system
configuration.
On my Debian 2.0 system, I would edit /etc/init.d/network and specify
the new
gateway there along with my new IP. I'm sure there's some control panel
thing to do this on RedHat... whatever. Just look around close to where
you
specified the new IP address and look for a gateway option, and make
sure it
gets set to the right value for your network.
HINT: If you don't want to wait another 20 minutes to get into Linux to
make
this change, hit your SHIFT key when the LILO message appears and type
"linux single" (or something else if your LILO label isn't "linux"...
just
add single on the end). This will give you a root shell before starting
any
daemons, so you can fix the problem and then change to a multi-user
runlevel.
That help?

While agreeing with that, it looks to me like Debian's security
advantage may lie in the ability to easily (almost automatically) get
security updates off the web, using dselect.

Well, technically yes. However, people in the legal business are of a
completly different type of anal-retentiveness than most computer
people. Both are used to adhere to pretty arbitray rules, but for
different reasons. If the end result of a sequence of actions is
obviously and by intend the same as the end result of another sequence
of actions, both are likely to be treated similar in law.
Or, to be obvious, if I take the novel "Snow Crash" and distribute it
as a list of individual words in alphabetic order (non-copyrightable)
and offer a web-page which gives me a list of numbers that say which
word goes were, I _am_ violating copyright, even though the user is
the one that puts the novel together again.

linux offers it's network serviced as soon as the deamons are loaded,
this is half way through the boot process. You can use the linux
network resorces before linux even finishes booting.
if you need help setting up NT to work properly, maybe you shouldn't
have messed with it's default behavior which it to offer it's services
as soon at the system finishes booting. ( which is after the login
pronpt apears on the screen where linux finishes booting before giving
a login prompt )
