Try 'su -'...the '-' means "as if that person had actually logged on"...that
way you'll get an /sbin stuck in your PATH, which is where ifconfig and
shutdown are (probably)

I hope you know that you can just use ctrl-alt-del to reboot if that's what
you're trying to do :). If you want to halt the machine you'll have to
become root, though.
'man su' and 'man ctrlaltdel' may help out a bit.

Try logging in as root, and do a "which shutdown". Note the full path.
Log in as boring user, type "set |grep -i path" and see if your shutdown
program's path is in there. If it's not you'll need to use the full path
spec to invoke shutdown or add it to your .profile's path command.

Unless shutdown is on your path, you need to qualify it by specifying the

Subject: Frame count.
Hi,
I'm using Slackware 3.3 and a NE2000 card with two other computers
networked by
coax cabling. Just recently I on one of the computers I started have
really slow network
transfer rates, but the other two were fine. So I ran ifconfig and
noticed a high frame count
were as I didn't have one on the other computers. I did try use
different cards and they all do the same, and they all work fine in a
different computer. I even try different cabling and different
terminaters, no difference. I even did a total reinstall of linux and
still the same thing. If any one has any ideas or an explanation of the
"frame" paramater please let me know.

Take a look at the program 'wvdial' - it nicely automates the process of
setting up a PPP connection, and is very smart about auto-configuring your
modem and soforth; just tell it your ISP's phone number, uid, and password
and it'll do the rest.

Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 13:38:42 -0500
I had a problem with X-server hanging at startup yesterday. I know the
reason for that, so that's not what this post is about.
I heard that it's possible to kill X-server through telneting from another
machine. I tried it, but command for example "kill 644" (directed at startx
at first, and then at all other X-related processes) didn't kill anything.
I did "kill -s $DIFFERENT_NUMBERS 644", and most of them didn't do anythig,
but I think that "kill -s 9 644" turned 644 into a "zombie", and so it did
with all other processes, belonging to X. But the screen on the hung machine
didn't change.
I admit that I didn't really know what I was doing with all these -s
switches, so can anyone please explain, what would have been a correct
procedure for this?
Thanx.

No need to keep banging your head against weird route and netstat
commands.
You need to check two files only, on each machine :
/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0
Have a look at them (or send them to us) and see if there are any weird settings inside
them. All your network is being setup, based on those two files.

I firmly believe that you are not experiencing any irq conflicts or

Check for a simple /etc/hosts file on each machine with basically
three lines:
127.0.0.1 local.localhost
199.208.118.10 skitzo
199.208.118.159 bipolar

Do not mess with named yet, unless you are experienced with bind.
If you need any further help with named & bind, after you have setup you network,
let me know. Named is NOT required to let the computers see each other (and ping).

The lmhosts file should be your last worry. Did you give the valid
network settings in the control panel/network for the NIC ? (ip address, netmask
, broadcast and network name ?)
Just to make things clear to you, two things are needed to setup a
tcp/ip
network :
Properly configured network cards and two valid ip address
(with the relative netmask/broadcast settings) to each computer.

The one thing that might happen, (but unlikely) is the NIC defaulting
to
the RJ45 port instead of the 10Base2 one. Try running the setup program from DOS
and force the cards to use 10Base2 port.

Samba has nothing to do with pinging each other. For the sake of
simplicity
stop smb, named, routed, gated, snmpd from starting as daemons. Use the ntsysv tool.
(/usr/sbin/ntsysv).
good luck

Have a look in the PPP-HOWTO and see how to turn on debugging with the

exactly pppd hangs up.
If it dials but doesn't get the first prompt, consider a dud serial port
or modem cable as a possible problem - eliminate this one by using
minicom to prove the port/modem/cable combo works.

The 127.0.0.1 that you are pinging (from the client) is not a server,
but
the loopback device of the client (e.g. win95)
So first of all, have you given a valid ip address to the client ? e.g.
192.168.1.2 since 192.168.1.1 is the address of the serrver.

Do an ifconfig on the server, and let us know of the results. Your
settings
seem correct, although the 192.168.1.0 is really the network address since you are not
subnetworking at the moment.
By the way, if you ping 192.168.1.1 from the server, do you get a
valid reply ?
If yes, then the problem most probably is a misconfigured client.

I have read in many a post that one shouldn't logon as root.
Alright, I have set up an account for myself to log on. But how do I
shutdown the system in the end of the session? "su" doesn't help - I get
"command not found" message when I try to enter shutdown or ifconfig for

I have to log on as root at the end of each session to only shutdown. This

If the gateway is not connected to other networks, and you have
forward_ipv4
enabled then you may have problem.
Please go to your /etc/sysconfig and send us the 'network' file as
well as the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
Try to disable forwarding by editing you /etc/sysconfig/network and
setting
the FORWARD_IPV4=no .

The only problem that I can think of, is whether your NIC defaults
(due to
the pnp) to 10base2 port instead of the UTP one. To be sure, why don't you set it
to non-pnp mode, using the disk provided with the 509b (ensuring that the 10baseT port
is enabled) ?

I have exactly the same setup.
Make first partition on your HD FAT16, then create partitions for Linux and
any more FAT16/FAT32 partitions if you want. Install Win98 and NT (in this
order) into the same partition (The first FAT16).
Then install Linux. REMEMBER TO INSTALL LILO INTO THE LINUX PARTITION, and
not to Master Boot Record (MBR). Aside from this, there are no special
tricks required.
You will need to use WinNT boot manager to switch between the OS's. Or, use
some other boot manager, like Partition Magic's Boot Magic. Or just use
floppy to boot into Linux.
Cheers.

Sports fans,
I have a three station network at home.. Thetageek (192.168.1.4) is
W98/RH5.2,
betageek (192.168.1.3) is RH5.0, and geekdom (192.168.1.1) is RH5.2.
They talked
and played nice no matter what OS I used on thetageek till I got PPP
running on
geekdom. Now thetageek and betageek talk fine (regardless of
thetageek's OS), but
geekdom's being unsociable.
Here's route -n from betageek (cleaned up for proper spacing):
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref

0 5 eth0
127.0.0.0 - 255.0.0.0 !
0 888 -
If you prefer netstat -rn, betageek's looks like this (ditto spacing):

127.0.0.0 - 255.0.0.0 !
- - - -
In both cases, the 127.0.0.1 line is missing from geekdom and 127.0.0.0
has the lo interface instead of a -
ifconfig -a from betageek (ditto spacing):

Interrupt:10 Base address:0x310 Memory:cc000-d0000
I've compared geekdom's ifconfig -a output and other than hardware
address, ip address and items specific to each card, it's identical.
I've tried dropping and adding routes (I'm not sure that's effective
with the loopback), rebooting, modifying routes, etc. No luck. Does
anyone have any idea what's going on?
I've tried messages to my local linux user group, verified that the wire
and hub port are OK as well. I'm mystified.

try also fetch -n
This avoids automatic unsubscription of news groups.
This don't unlink files in the interesting.groups directory.
See man fetch.

I've been trying for days to get connected to my ISP. It's almost
comical. This has got to be the most difficult thing I've ever done
with computers. I can't believe the lack of information on this
subject. HOWTO? HOWTO my ass! These things vary from distro to
distro. They aren't maintained and all the ones that pertain to ppp
were written 3 years ago.
So after many days of frustration it's come to this. Do I need to use
mulit link ppp with my external ISDN? Is my work with ppp all for
naught?

Any replies to your post? I am having the same trouble finding an example.
