If a company's computer users are that ignorant, they should not have
general purpose computer OSes put in front of them. The OS should be
customized so the users can easily do the relatively small set of things
that they need to do. This costomization is something that is much
easier in Linux than proprietary OSes, from simply configuring a
window manager to rewriting one to support the needed tasks.
Note that this kind of thing would be better done if the kernel people
ever get around to creating a better permissions scheme.
Anyway, the ease-of-use issue will soon be addressed. The most important
thing that is needed to advance Linux as a desktop OS is the developement
and popularization of good multiple-OS software developement systems,
so that application writers can port programs written for M$ to Linux
cheaply enough to make money off the effort. When more good apps are
available, users will run from M$ with great pleasure.

Hello out there,
I am considering to buy a PCMCIA Ethernet adapter
(http://www.cnet.com.tw/products/p-nic-cn40bc.html) for my laptop. In short
I'll be installing RH 5.1 on this machine. Has anybody had any experience
with this card? Is there any place where I can get a list of supported
PCMCIA Ethernet adapters that Linux supports?
Thanks.

Subject: where does pop3 save messages?
Date: Sun, 17 Jan 1999 03:33:04 +0200
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
We have disc quota problems which we suspect due to pop3 keeping too
many messages on our Linux mail server (we use Red Hat 5.1).
Most users read their mail with netscape from remote pc's.
For example, I know that my mail box is empty, and even checked that
/var/spool/mail/my-account is empty. But pop3 tells me that I have 97
messages (some of them are huge).
I would like to clean all the users messages
due to disk shortage. However I could not figure out where pop3 keeps
those mesages?? (realy looked hard).
Can anybody please tell me where those messages are kept?
Thanks all!
Samy

My personal goal is to learn how to program drivers, applications, and
X applications for Linux. I also want to be able to maintain my own
computing environment without reliance on Microsoft.
I also want to advocate the use of Linux to others and get the
operating system into mainstream use. First as a replacement to NT,
then as a replacement to Windows 9X. The reason for that is to make
the desktop a competitive environment again that is not controled by
one company, but rather by the end users.

Thanks for your help but it still doesn't work.
I have recompiled ppp-2.3.4 with commenting out USE_CRYPT macro and
added "" to secret field of the chap-secrets file.
but still ConfRej...
I also asked my ISP's help center but they don't know how to connect to
their server from linux.
BTW, how do I know if I have encrypt()?
no man page for encrypt but following code compiled with no error:
void main() { encrypt(); }
I read README.MSCHAP80 and successfully tested testchap.c in it.
so my chap-secrets file is now: DialupNT guest ""

and run pppd with "pppd /dev/modem 38400 name guest remotename DialupNT

my kernel is 2.0.35 within slackware 3.6.

First off, I wouldn't suspect the net card because the error messages
refer to host name resolution. Before you do anything else, try
ping and telnet by IP address, like telnet and ping your own IP
address, and then another IP address on your same network cable (no
routing), then one across a router. If these work the problem
is your /etc/hosts table or your /etc/resolv.conf DNS name resolution
setup, not the card. If they don't work, maybe you will get some more
informative error messages.

Subject: NET2PHONE with Linux ISDN router with masq problem
Hello,
i am running a Linux ISDN router box which works really fine with http,
ftp etc.
BUT
i also need to run NET2PHONE (www.net2phone.com) on the Windows PCs in
the net, where the masq fails.
You can specify in the net2phone.ini the TCPPORT and UDPPORT (both set
to 6613) but when the client handshakes with the NET2PHONE server the
server sends an icmp to port 6613 (which is not specified in the docu)
and the Linux router answers that icmp is not reachable
tcpdump -i ippp0 (extract)
xx:xx:xx.xxxx 169.132.184.211.34783 > myip .6613 udp 50 (DF)
xx:xx:xx.xxxx myip > 169.132.184.211: icmp: myip udp port 6613
unreachable [tos 0xc0]
It seems that this is the 2nd handshake ....NET2PHONE doesnt give a
statement.
Can you help me?

Acutally, I thought he had a point, since most Linux users I've met have
grand dreams of usurping Windows (98 *and* NT) and MacOS....which does beg
the question.
If Linux is *not* being shot at the "typical" home user, than you are
quite right, "hard" is not the issue.
I guess my point is, what is the goal of users of the Linux platform, anyway?

I spent three days messing with two linksys cards on two different linux
boxes and finally gave up in disgust and got two intel cards. After that
both machines came right up. I tried everything I could find on the linksys
web pages - and one of the cards even had a linux logo on the box it came
in - but could not get them to behave. In addition my ISP guru claims that
intel and 3com cards have a much higher net through put. Wouldn't know, but
at this point linksys has been added to the "don't buy" list.

Incorrect. IPX is indeed routable, which includes routing over PPP
links.
> So you have to run IPX on some routable protocol (like ip)
This is true only if your routers are NOT configured to handle IPX
traffic. The routers on "the Internet" are an example of such
routers: they route only IP. So you can't send IPX packets over the
"Internet" (capital "I"). But there's nothing inherent in the IPX
protocol which prevents routing. IPX is routed quite well as long as
the routers are configured to route it.
Many folks have their own dialup configurations in which they control
the routers on both ends--those folks are free to enable IPX in their
routers and create a large (routable) IPX network, even over a PPP
link.
(Now NetBEUI--there's a protocol which really isn't routable! :-)
Cheerio,

as a possible reason why telnet won't accept input from a pipe...telnet is a
terminal emulator and therefore uses probably termios or curses, which would
monitor for individual key strokes rather than read a stream of input data...may I
be right?

Probably the best guide for Novell is in
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/IPX-HOWTO
I suppose for NT you would use smbclient, described in
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO
These should probably be called the NETWARE-HOWTO and the
WINDOWS-SHARE-HOWTO or something like that.

Huh? BFD. Been there, done that. Many times. No, you don't need yacc for that.
It's a trivial precedence grammar, so you don't need anything complex.
Let's see: two binary operations, several unary postfix ones. If you want
to support Perl-style (foo){5,10} stuff - add a { recognition to lexer and
make it eat up the rest of qualifier. Yet another unary operation from the
parser's point of view. Trivial loop over the input tokens, stack for pending
operations. The rest is obvious:
Start:
while next is '('
push '(';
eat next;
if next is not atom
die;
foo:
while next is unary operation
emit unary;
eat next;
if top of stack is '*'
emit CONCATENATE;
pop;
if next is '(' or atom
push '*';
goto Start;
if top of stack is '|'
emit OR;
pop;
if next is '|'
push '|';
eat next;
goto Start;
if top is '(' and next is ')'
eat next;
pop;
goto foo;
if at the end of input and stack is empty - OK.
die;
It does translation to reverse Polish, compute on the fly if you want.
Took seven minutes.
I hope that writing lexer, generating finite automate and feeding the
input through it *may* be left as an exercise (hint: lexer should serve one or
two special cases ([a-zA-z] and {42,127} style), but they are trivially
distinguished by the first character and finding the end is also completely
obvious).
Kiddies those days...
