Edit /etc/shells to contain a usless shell, say "/bin/true".
Some people use "/bin/false" but I find it more mnemonic to use
"/bin/true" for users who can FTP and "/bin/false" for users who
can't.

I am having some trouble trying to get my internet connection working. I
have been able to connect to my ISP O.K. However, if I try to start up
Netscape AFTER connecting, Netscape refuses to start.
I get the following error:
Xlib: connection to "0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: :0.0
Even if I disconnect from my ISP, netscape refuses to start. I noticed that
the console log doesn't indicate localhost anymore but states

Subject: My ISP is automatically disconnected whenever it starts PPP session.
Date: 31 Dec 1998 12:39:45 +0000
I am using Red Hat 5.0 and ppp-on script to connect to the ISP.
I have no problem in getting connected to the ISP. To start ppp
session from the ISP, I have to initiate 'ppp'. Whenever I manually
type for manual connection via minicom, or automatically initiate ppp
by ppp-on script, the ISP says '...change to ppp session' and a few
seconds later, it dies.
My /var/log/message is something like below.
/ppp0 --> /dev/modem
... (SIGHUP)
...disconnected
..
..
Why is this happening? Any idea to fix?
BTW, I have no problem with Win95 connection to the same server.

This is a bit of a non-sequitur, since not all internal modems
depend on software such as a winmodem, rockwell etc. So what is
wrong with an internal modem ? I use an internal modem with
linux.
No led display and using one bus slot for a single port/modem
seem to be obvious drawbacks - what are some of the others?
If there are just a few numerable and substantial reasons
my next modem purchase _will be_ an external modem.

Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 15:09:24 +0100
Hi,
I am tinkering with INND 1.7 on RH51/AXP and so far so good. There are
still a few configuration issues that are bothering me;
How do you tell INN that "everybody" has access? Until now only the
hosts I specify get access, but I want to make it a small public server.
How do I tell it "not" to accept any feeds? I don't want INN to slave to
uu.net and garble up my harddrive with nonsense.
And finally, how do I create my own newsgroups? where do I specify that?
This server is intended for use by some friends of mine, where we can
post messages about who's going to do what, or about music etc,etc.
That's why I don't want any feeds! The public access issue is also quite
important. I want everyone to be able to take a look at this server by
going to axp.aimwell.org (that's going to be the address of the
nntp/http/ftp/smpt/pop server ;-).
Thanks,
Rubin.

There is one. Install the Samba Services for Linux (shoud be included by
your distribution). And now you can use File and Print Sharing services
from Windows.

On my network, I have 2 systems running Win95 that get the wrong DHCP
assigned addresses. One in particular tries to get the first address
in the subnet, always. Other systems using DHCP work fine. These systems
used to work fine and started this behavior spontaniously. I finally

Subject: Cable Modem - Watch Out!
Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 17:37:44 GMT
This is some particularly interesting poop, and might be good to know (if
it,s true).
Cable Modem suscribers who run on Linux, or any other operation system
running services should be careful (those suscribers who are issued a static
IP addres(s)).
For a regular home account, most, if not all CMP's prohibit the use of a
proxy server, and file/www services. (Including IP_masquerading).
Word is, some of these CMP's are hitting these IP's, looking for services,
i.e. , web servers, and FTP, and on a regular basis.
Those of "us" using masquerading might want to do a little house cleaning
before going on line.
Security of your system is another concern, but if anyone has information on
this, please post.
Thanks!!

we use them under windows and they work fine... the device used to

Your first diagram is correct. The ISDN segment is "adress-less" from the
standpoint of IP. In other worlds, the ISDN routers need only one IP, the
one for the Ethernet interface.
At the remote sites, you would name the ISDN router as the default gateway.
In the router, configure it to route between the remote and central site.
At the central site, you need a real (non-ISDN) router with static routes to
each remote site gated through the appropriate ISDN router. An alternative
to a real router at central, you could put static routes to every remote
site in every station's route table.

Funny, those double ","'s.
Did you read the ethernet-howto? And the net-3-howto?
Is your card recognised by the kernel during booting?
(check /var/log/messages)
Is it P&P? Find the M$-DOS util to make it behave normal.
If the card is supported it should work.
