Look in /var/log/debug for the ppp negotiation messages for more
information. Put
*.=debug /var/log/debug
in /etc/syslog.conf if this file doesn't exist. "man syslog.conf" explains.
It might be that because of the "."'s you need quotes with the
pppd option name, i.e.,
name "Internet.****.****" * "****"
but at this point it could be a lot of other things.

If it died the same way then it's very likely something is wrong with

to dial out even with the wrong IRQ you have to have the right port.

You pay your money and place your bet IMHO. If it ain't broke do not
fix it at the moment. I have been experiencing some user space NFS
server stability problems and a weird kernel bug (we have no idea how
to trigger either problem unfortunately). Out bets are that moving to
2.2.0 and knfsd is likely to solve the stability problems but we will
retain a backup option.
I guess with both options YMMV.

I have set a ppp connection. My problem is that
most of the times, that connection hangs in 3 or 4 minutes.
I tried to add and remove idle option in pppd.
No I installed diald. It works fine but does the
same, the connection uses to last few minutes.
I modified the /usr/lib/diald/ configuration file
so it keeps the connection for 20 minutes but it
does the same. Of course I kill and restart the
diald daemon when I modify configuration.
I tried different modems and serial ports.
How can I debug my problem ?

Hi
Can anyone suggest a way that a Linux PC could obtain its kernel via
tftp without using a network boot ROM? The PC has a full directory
structure on its HD, it's just the kernel that I'd like to keep
synchronised across machines. Could LILO, or some replacement, do that?

I highly recommend John Blair's book, "Samba, Integrating UNIX and
Windows". It will make you a SAMBA guru in no time.
I'm currently playing with Webmin. It's a free, web based Linux admin
tool. Right now I'm using it to add SAMBA shares. It seems to work
really well, but I have not gotten too deep with it yet.
The way it works is it installs it's own mini web server and uses PERL
to make the configuration changes to your system. It uses a web based
interface to let you change a lot of system parameters.
It's really easy to setup and use.

Subject: how do you out dial on a modem from the server prompt
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 22:39:02 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have a ZOOM 2.8k and a USR 56k. I am trying to get uucp set up so I
can download files form one server location to another. Each machine
also has mgetty installed so I can dialin remotely.
Using winblows, I can dila in to the server and receive a logon prompt
as expected. ( Mgetty works well. ) However, uucp will not pick up the
phone and dial out to connect to the other server. I have tried
dialing form the server prompt using the same command line sequence
used to dial out from dos machines but that does not work.
Q: Is they a way to know that I have a good connection to a modem form
the linux prompt? Here's what I'm entering at the prompt.
echo atdt1234567 >/dev/ttyS1 <enter>
The modem lights flicker like it's going to dial but alas, nothing.
You help would be appreciated as it will help me in trouble shooting
uucp and other communication packages.

if it says network unreachable on the linux box then that means it can't
find a route
type /sbin/route
you should get:something like this:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 74 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 12 lo
note the first line tells linux that the route to computers on 192.168.1.?
are accessed thruogh
eth0 - your network card
Also try typing ifconfig
and get this type of stuff:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
RX packets:718 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:718 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:05:55:37:DD
inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:9048 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:9662 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
Interrupt:11 Base address:0x6000
if the entry for eth0 doesn't have 192.168.1.2 in it then that could also be
a problem, but if you
say the configs are the same so this should be right
As for the different irq's ??
Is it a Plug N Pray device, could be that 98 & linux just decided to
allocate different irq's although
3 is normally used for a serial port which could cause trouble, try
disabling the appropriate serial
port in the bois and see if that makes a difference - you never know... not
a fix to the problem but
it would give a pointer.

Date: 29 Jan 1999 17:40:27 GMT
Have two systems running Redhat 5.1 and 5.2 respectively. Experimenting with
using rsh to run programs on the other system and having problems. It all
seem to come down to rsh not running my bash login scripts when I try to
specify a program on the rsh line. If I don't specify a command, it brings up
bash in interactive mode and everything is fine. But if I do specify a
command, /etc/profile doesn't get executed, path variables aren't set ane
everything goes haywire.
Interestingly, it is specify bash as the command to run, it isn't considered
an interatcive or a login shell. If I add the -i and -login switches it comes
up and works just fine.
Don't know if I have something set up wrong, or there is something wrong with
the rshd daemon, or if it just supposed to work this way.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Because they have different connectors. eth0, normally going to the
cable modem, has the 10baseT connector, which is what the NIC that came
on the new machine has. eth1, normally my house lan, uses BNC connector.
When the new machine is ready to go, I will be transferring the BNC card
to the new machine, and retiring the old machine.
I already know I can use the ifconfig and route commands to do this. I
know how to both add and delete routing, I'm just not clear on how to
undo the ifconfig commands while running (as opposed to rebooting without
the rc.inet1 script bringing them up). If I wanted to reboot every ten
minutes, I'd be running my Windoze partition.
I have 3 harddrives on the old machine, only one of which will fit in the
new one. I have to do some extensive rearranging to put everything on
the new machine, make it convenient to find everything on a different
partitioning scheme, and ensure that any critical data on either one
has a backup area on the other. So I want to script the ifconfig and
routing to do this on and off over several days.

I am also new to fairly new to Linux and have tried both Redhat and Caldera.
If they are to easiest to get a hold of then I would go with Redhat. I have
found a distribution that I think is better than both... Mandrake. It
combines KDE (a cool windows manager) and Redhat's distribution.
Just my opinion...

I ran into the same "problem". I have no idea why NFS mounts need
the local portmapper, but it seems that they do. If you go to
/etc/rc.d/rc[345].d and change the S<nn>portmap or S<nn>nfsfs so
that the portmapper is started before the S<nn>nfsfs tries to do
your NFS mounts, these messages will go away. The approach I took
was to reduce the number for S<nn>portmap to one less than the
number for S<nn>nfsfs, e.g., /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S40portmap was renamed
S14portmap (I think -- I'm on a different machine and won't have
access to the machine I did all this on until Monday).
As far as I could tell, this change didn't actually fix anything,
but at least it keeps /var/log/messages a little shorter.
