Nice idea, but how are you gonna make sure the routers treat your IP
packets 'better' than other IP packets passing along ? IPv4, unlike
ATM, uses best-effort and doesn't pre-allocate resources.
Selecting a router path can be done using IP source routing but a)
your hosts must be forced to do this and b) the routers mustn't drop
those packets.
In the recent Linux kernels, there is a feature 'drop source routed
packets', so you don't want that in your path if you'll use this.
Maybe some recent technologies (in IP) can provide help, but how
exactly did you plan to accomplish this 'selected router path' ?

And therein lies the answer. You may have installed pppd-2.3.x, but
your kernel ppp driver is 2.2.0. You need to build a new kernel using
the instructions that come with ppp-2.3.5 to use demand dialing.

try rpcinfo to see if they are ports used by an RPC service
rpcinfo -p {machine name} or on the machine itself "rpcinfo -p
localhost"
according to http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/port-numbers,
786 is allocated to something called "Concert"; but that may not be what
it is used for on your systems.

I tried that and got another page of new errors. I have slackware 3.4 here and I
think I am going to try it. I had to get it for my other pc which has a Mylex
Flashpoint scsi card which it supports in that release. I was using 3.0 on this
current machine because that is what I was using before the storm damage...the
only thing I did was upgrade the kernel version.

Can not log in while dail-up connection is active ??? Please Help
================================================================================
I am running a Linux mail server on RedHat 5.0
For some odd reason, whenever the dialup line is active
(dialup SMTP mail exchange) users on the network can not log in.
any sessions not already active are frozen. If I use a function key to
get to a diff. tty on the console it does not allow me to log in
either. (tried root too).
Can anyone tell me what could be causing it?
Does it have anything to do with the dialup script and how it is
running ?
Any info. thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appr.
Also, if you have an opinion about upgrading to RH 5.2 and if this
will fix any problems please let me know.
Thanks,

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
check the /var/log/secure and /var/log/messages for info on why the
telnet was not allowed.
Some more things to look for:
1- is there a /etc/nologin file? If it exists, logins will be disabled.
2- is there a /etc/usertty file? if it exists, it may limit logins to
certain ttys/ips
3- make sure that reverse dns works on both machines. If you dont have
dns set up, then make sure that the /etc/hosts on both machines contains
an entry for both.
4- is inetd running?

Date: Fri, 25 Dec 1998 20:28:14 GMT
Hi,
I have one machine hooked via a cable modem to the Internet. I also have a
local network addressed in the private range, that I want to be accessible
to/from the Internet. I only have one network interface on the machine
hooked to the internet, so I'm using IP aliasing to give it a second
address on my local network.
The question: can I set it up such that the local network can access the
INternet through the machine hooked to the internet? Could someone poing
me in the right direction, ie, what to research to get this done?
Thanks
Please CC: to my personal address too, please!

Look... I think it would be easier to use some program like dip that
makes everything for you; you ust have to configure resolv.conf, etc., what
you already did. Maybe PPP-Howto can help you.

Ok, here's the problem. I can't use the internet and have my internal
network running at the same time. I can start the ppp session, it
connects and stays connected, but I can't access the internet. Netscape
will just sit and try to resolve the address (any address at that) then
just come back with an error. So, right now I'm having to shut down
eth0 while I use ppp. I know I shouldn't have to do this and I know
that I can use my linux box as a firewall for the rest of my network.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get this situation cleared up?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I was just wondering what cable I should use to hook up two computers

Also, which card would anyone recommend for use with linux? Possibly a SMC
etherpower II 9432 model 10/100 card? LinkSys LNE100TX card? Any card that
is tier 1 supported by redhat support.

I figured it out. Silly Newbie mistake. I didn't format the IO address
properly. For any other newbies out there the IO address needed to be in
the format "0x380" rather than 380 or 380h. I should have known that. Oh
well. On a side note once that was solved the public NFS installation of
Caldera OpenLinux Lite worked like a champ.

For 100mbps, is should be Category 5 (CAT 5) cable, less than 100 meters in
length AND if you're not using a HUB or a switch, then it MUST be a CROSS OVER
cable where the RX and TX pairs are swapped.
I use 3COM and Intel NICs - can't say about other ones.
