You could try this in your /etc/conf.modules:
alias eth0 eexpress
alias eth1 eexpress
options eth0 -o eexpress-0 io=0x300 irq=11
options eth1 -o eexpress-1 io=0x270 irq=10
An explanation is in the Ethernet-HOWTO.
Hope that helped.

i had the same problem recently
here is how i solved it:
totally removed the net ( i am using suse and yast , so i dont know how your
distrib does it ) , leaving only dummy (loopback) net
new start
reinstalled the net with all configuration neceesary (ip-adress,mask,name)
new start
worked again afterwards
( i found out why it didn't work before, during this process, but thats too
susespecific maybe wont help you)

Subject: Setting up squid with a proxy only ISP...
Hi guys,
I am currently using WinGate in Windows 95 to proxy http, ftp and mail
whenever I am in Windows 95.
Problem is, I don't always want to be in 95, in fact I only want to
be in 95 for gaming sessions.
I like to do my web development in Linux (Red Hat 5.2, XFree86 3.3.3)
with The GIMP, etc and would like to be able to set up squid so that
it performs the same proxy functions in Linux that WinGate does for me
in 95.
But... my ISP does not support direct connection to the internet, I
must use thier proxy and because of this I must set WinGate to
use "cascaded" proxy for my client PC's to browse with http.
If I choose "direct connect" in WinGate instead of "cascaded", my client
PC's can only see my ISP's web page and nothing beyond.
I would like to know how I go about setting up squid to use a "cascaded"
proxy because when I try to proxy from within Linux, I get the same
problem
on my client PC's where they can only see my ISP's web page and nothing
beyond.
Many thanks in advance,
Bye for now.

On the Win32 client, put an entry in the lmhosts file:
1.2.3.4 samba-server #PRE (replace with real IP and name)
reboot or reload lmhosts (see nbtstat docs)
then map network drive \\samba-server\share
Just think, though:
If you can do it, anyone else out there can do it as well.
You can restrict access somewhat though samba and tcpd by using hosts.allow

Subject: Pipeline 75/NAT/dynamic ip
Date: Fri, 29 Jan 1999 08:12:43 -0500
I'm running an Ascend Pipeline 75 ISDN router using NAT (dynamic ip). Everything
is working fine but I want to be able to see my dynamic ip address each time it
changes. I have seen some programs out on the web that do this but I want to be
able to write some C code to do it because I need to do something a little
different than what the shareware programs do.
The only way I have seen so far to do it is to get into diag mode on the router
and issue the NATL command. Also some of the SHOW IP commands will show the
address. I don't want to have to always access the router. The shareware
programs do it somehow but I just can't seem to find the secret anywhere.
Can anybody point me to something that will tell me how to access my dynamic ip
address which is on the other side of the router using C in Linux?

Subject: NIS & netgroups & more oddities
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 19:01:17 GMT
Thorsten,
Hello again. I have decided to check some more stuff before putting that
machine we talked about into production. Now that netgroups work, it seemed
that nothing else can be a problem. Unfortunately, I was wrong, and here is
a description:
When using a [EMAIL PROTECTED]:::::: in /etc/passwd:
running ls -al in a directory, be it nfs mounted or local, with different
file ownerships, say something like: /home/cc/staff (running ls -al there)
is very slow, it takes 6 minutes to do ls. If I remove the
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:::::: and add a +:::::: , the ls -al is lightning fast.
And more. Say I ftp linux-2.2.0.tar.gz. The ownership of the archived files
are some_uid.some_gid. Say I want to untar the file, whether on a local or
nfs mounted file system. It takes 20 !!! minutes to untar it with the
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:::::: in the passwd file, and it takes 20 seconds to untar
it with +::::::
I assume that the lookups are the problem, but I don't know why.
I tried making this server a NIS slave, in order for it to have the databases
locally. But that wasn't it, and it still manifests these problems.
Can you sched some light on this matter ?
Best,

The PCMCIA network card in my laptop died a few days ago, and I can't
get it to connect to the outside world (well, maybe I'll set up PLIP,
but I'd really hate having to do that).
OK, here are the boot messages: background info below. Up to the
"eth0" line it's identical to a successful boot from (say) a week ago.

The machine is an MBC "Prostar" with P233/64Mb/3Gb and 15" screen -
AFAICT manufactured in the far east and also sold as an identical box
by other vendors such as AJP. The network card is a DLINK DE-660,
and has worked fine since new last May. It is (or was) recognized
as NE2000 compatible.
On monday morning, I plugged the card in as usual, and accessed the
network. Later, without having connected, disconnected, or any such thing
it was dead. I suspect a hardware error either in the PC or in the card,
but I've no way of testing for this.
I have quite a lot of log messages from the time it went down: I'm hoping
that by posting it here I can get some help with a diagnosis. Note that
I've tried a lot of software solutions in the meantime, including a kernel
upgrade (transported 2.0.36 on floppies)!
(AAARGH - I've trashed /var/[adm|log]: it's not on my root-partition backup,
and I physically can't make a whole-filesystem backup without the
network card).

Subject: Re: Cable Modem problems
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 19:54:30 GMT
The cable modem howto is not as complete as is thought. ComCast in NJ (@home)
provides static IP addresses and motorola cable modems that simply connect to
a NIC. I have my system setup as a TCP/IP LAN box.
The HOWTOs are great, but to be safe, you must make sure that it is exactly
the same as your situation before applying any of the info they provide.
The interface isn't activating because the module isn't present. That
happened to me with my NIC. You could use insmod to load the module manually
(or automatically with kernel options [?]) but rebuilding is the easiest
answer. You might want to check out buildkernel. I used it rebuilt my kernel.
The only problem I experiences was not already having the as86 library
installed. Once I added it and ran ldconfig, buildkernel did everything,
including updating lilo.conf. You can get the link from freshmeat or get it
linuxberg.
I've never built a kernel before. using buildkerenl was very easy. It has a
GUI interface for choosing kernel options. If you use it, remember to save
the kernel options just in case you need to do it over again ;-)

I recently got hold of a couple of VXT 2000/VXT 2000+ terminals and
I'm interested in hanging them off my Linux box. I know that when they
were connected to the Digital Unix server, special drivers/fonts had
to be loaded on the server.... I know the same files probably won't
work on Linux (I don't have them anyway). But I'm curious if any else
may have run across the same situation, and how you may have solved
it. And by the way, Digital no longer supports the terminals on their
servers, so I know they won't support it on Linux. I'd appreciate any
info/advice sent this way. Cheers,

Hmm, I'm not sure what ifup does. Normally, you would have a ppp-on
script, which calls your dialler, and then starts pppd. However, from
the log you posted, it did try to start a chat session, which suggests
it attempted to dialup. Have a look at your dialup script, the problem
is almost definitely there.

Once you see the junk output, you need to exit minicom without
resetting the modem (Ctl-A Q I think), and run pppd, with parameters I
can't remember right now (I'm not on a linux box at the mo!), but they
are in the PPP HOWTO document.

I think you wouldn't want to get involved with
Linus ;) You probably mis-typed and hit the S
instead of X.
I would go with Red Hat (RH) over Caldera.
RH is suppose to be very friendly with newbies.
I personally use Slakware and used RH one time
but being a Unix user for several years I don't
car much for RH which is personal taste.

My Configure file said:
"

ld: cannot open crt1.0: No such file or directory

*** A test compilation...
"
My CCompiler is GCC with RedHat 5.0, installed by RPM.
What I have to do???
Thnx!

PS. I just started to play around with IP forwarding
not too long ago.
