Hello

There should be software (from the card Manufacture) that sets what
connection to use, TCP/BNC/AUTO. Try finding the software make sure the
settings are correct. Another suggestion is to boot in DOS on both machines
an there should be some utility (from the card Manufacture) that can test
the connection between the 2 boxes. This will tell you if it is hardware
problem or not.

Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 01:43:07 GMT

Hi all,

I'm having a problem with dynamic IP adrressing (DNS actually) of my ISP. PPP
connection is OK (getting IP address allocated), but then cannot do any
surfing after. Name server is not responding, and name lookup eventually
times itself out. But if I use an IP address instead, then it does connect me
to the site.

The ISP (of course) doesn't support Linux, and since I'm newcomer to Linux,
I'm kind of lost!

I'm running RedHat 5.1 on 233Mhz 6x86MX box, kernel 2.1.131.

What seems to be a problem? Could anyone help.

Coincidentally, I am trying to do an NFS installation of RH 5.2,
and getting nowhere with a NE2000-compatible ethernet card.
(I downloaded the whole distribution to a Sun, which can act as
the file server.)
The ethernet card works fine under DOS, and the config and diagnostic
programs seem just fine.  I can monitor all the traffic on
my net, perfectly.
But the RH installation routine just says it cannot find the
card.  The settings are very standard, i/o=300, irq=11.
No conflicts there.  Auto probe may or may not crash...
Usually does.  Manually enterring the addresses simply produces
"device not found."

I have also tried some other ethernet cards of unknown quality,
WD8003, WD8013, and it doesn't find them either?

Does this ring any bells?

And if I decide to try an FTP installation, it asks for the
"supp" disk, which I give it, and it runs silently for a few
minutes, and then crashes.  The supp disk is good, I verified
the data to make sure that wasn't the problem.

Subject: Adding local terminal on cua3 long)
Date: Mon, 04 Jan 1999 12:51:35 -0800

First, a hello from a newbie to the group and a quick intro.

 After going through the painful process of upgrading my home Windoz PC 
to a new motherboard and W**** 98, and witnessing the vast bloatware I 
spawned therein, I decided to make a break for freedom, and have recently 
cobbled together a Linux system (Redhat 5.0) in my basement from an older 
486 MB and assorted parts. While I have been in the EE business and 
computers for a long time ( I started out designing a custom language 
interpeter for a PDP-8/L, if you can believe it), my exposure to UNIX 
systems has been limited to the occasional login on large commercial 
systems. Being a Linux sysadmin is A NEW and EXHILARATING experience for 
me .  .!!! (Oh my God - I'm root - I can do ANYTHING I WANT !!) <grin>

Anyway, here's my question (I know this has probably already been asked 
and answered many times before, but finding things through Dejanews 
proved frustrating) - 

  I have an old Heath VT52 compatible dumb terminal that I want to set up 
as a local terminal through the COM4 (sorry - /dev/cua3) serial port on 
the PC. I've found a lot of info on setting up a serial port and modem 
for remote dial-in, but not as much with a simple direct connection. I 
know I need to use getty to do this, but do I need to edit my inittab 
file to set this up at boot time, or can I do this after Linux has come 
up?
Any help or URLs with info on this would be very much appreciated!

Date: Mon, 04 Jan 1999 20:29:21 -0600

Two things we noticed with Redhat and Debian, and might apply here as well.
There are some packet size params issues when setting up the Appletalk
stuff. Make sure those are where they need to be and because of the newer
mac's, these numbers might have to be played with a bit. We did it to ours
to get it to work on 5800's and such as well as networked Apple printers.

Secondly, as I and many others have found out, Permissions are a touchy
issue. Forgetting to set proper permissions will cause a Mac greif since it
doesn't know on a network what it really is dealing with - that's the
servers business. If permissions are not correct on an NT and a Mac tries to
read something for which it doesn't have permissions, you don't always get
the standard permissions dialog on an open.

For what it's worth, I still think that Linux and Mac are a bit yet apart on
some things. It's close but still no cigar, so to speak. If your akin to
some programming and such, might not be a bad idea if you began to do some
investigative work and try see what is happening. Not everyone can do this
but someones eventually going to figure it out.

It's not that tough -- just remember that unlike using IP masq on Linux or a 
true NAT product for Windows (Sygate, NAT1000), you're connecting TO the 
Wingate box.  You can ping the machine that's running it, right?  First 
things first.  Gotta have your LAN working before you can expect to use it 
to reach the Net.

So.  Your access to the Net is via a Wingate PROXY server.  You have to tell 
Netscape to use the Wingate's IP address as the proxy server.

To use telnet, you have to telnet TO the Wingate box and get a "Wingate>" 
prompt, then tell it what site you want.

To use FTP you have to tell the Wingate box to log in on your behalf, as 
user@site -- e.g. "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".

Frankly if I were you, I'd rip that modem off of the Winbox and put it on 
the Linux machine where it belongs.  :-,   (That's only half-a-smiley 
because I'm only half-joking when I say that.)

I do have a comment on that one. You want to tell me that just because you
went through a living hell means that others should too when it comes to
repartioning and then doing FTP install. Well, bozo, not everyone has to
suffer the same as you did. I did not say that I was buying a cd burner. In
fact if you read my initial posts, you would have jumped to the wrong
conclusion, you f****** idiot. besides, since you have collaborated with
microsoft, chances are they gave you a chance to backup without having to
pay a few hundred dollars. Also, think about this. Every few months, RH
releases a new CD which makes your previous version rather extinct. Now
think about having to pile up all the old versions. Got it? Probably not.
You're a  mentally retarded MF as are the rest of these pathetic idiots
except for "Crossbones."

Robert it sounds like inetd is answering the request but cannot find the
pop3d server.
Verify that the program (?ipop3d) that is in the /etc/inetd.conf file is in
the /usr/sbin directory. Make sure that it has the right name and spelling.
I had a problem with this as well.
