Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 17:53:01 GMT

Hi,

I am having trouble getting my swap spaces to work.  My fstab file is ok, I
have created the partitions, etc.  When I run swapon -a with no options, the
space is added with a priority of -1.  This seems strange to me.

When I run swapon -s I get this:
swapon: /proc/swaps: No such file or directory

I don't think the swap space has ever been utilized.  I tried loading my
system, which has 48 mb of ram, with no utilization.  Free mem dropped to
less than 1MB, and still no swapping.

Please help me out on this, It is really causing some problems.
thank you very much,

You will need to set a reg entry to allow passwords to be delivered in the
clear.  I myself can't remember the reg entry required.
Win95 allows it by default, 98 must be forced.

Anyone know the reg key?

Subject: proxy arp with kernel 2.2.0 ??

    H i  !

I have a problem with setting up a proxy arp with my SuSE-Linux 6.0 .
With the kernel 2.0.xx it worked fine, I used the settings described in
the HOWTO for proxy arp:

arp -i eth1 -sD xxx.yyy.zzz.0 eth1 netmask 255.255.255.0 pub

With the new kernel I always get the error "invalid argument", and the
error ist caused by using the network mask. Maybe this is caused by the
autoroute-routines of the new kernel.
This is, what I want to use my linux for:

I have a C-class subnet with a gateway, and I want to hide some of the
connected host by a proxy arp (with IP-Filter :-). This proxy should by
transparent, so that no settings on the host must be changed. This
worked fine with the old kernel-version, I just defined the main network
by I route for the whole network on the outside interface, an then for
each host on the inside interface its' own route. Now this isn't
possible any more by the same way, so I would be glad for some help! Has
someone other tips for a transparent routers??

Thanks in advance,
ANDREAS

Date: Sun, 31 Jan 1999 15:31:05 -0500

    I'm having a problem I've never seen before.  When I establish a PPP
connection to my local ISP, I can't ping some sites outside my ISP
(exmp: redhat.com), but I can ping others outside my ISP (exmp.
yahoo.com).  However, I can traceroute to redhat and SOMETIMES I can
reach redhat.com throught my browser.  BTW, I don't have any problems w/
my 98 machine that is using the same settings.
    Any ideas?  (I have had weird problems from Day 1 with networking on
this box.  I originally could use my ethernet card at work, but now all
of a sudden can't ping outside my local subnet.  I never had these
problems w/ Redhat 5.1. (Course it took my a while to get my Compaq
Netflex-3 in my docking station to work :). ))

I want to move my brie.com to my own dedicated machine where I have a
static IP address. I currently have it virtually located. When I do a
$whois brie.com I get the following:

   Domain servers in listed order:
 
   NS1.REQUEST.NET              206.151.75.9
   NS2.REQUEST.NET              208.211.228.3
   NS3.REQUEST.NET              209.27.13.3

My static IP address of my own machine at home is 207.212.133.10
Do I have to set up DNS on my local machine to make this work? When I
modify internic will I modify the section above to on my Internic
Registration to look like below?

   Domain servers in listed order:
 
   WWW.BRIE.COM               207.212.133.10

Are there any other modifications I should be aware of to do this?

See 'man 5 hosts_access' and 'man hosts_options'.  Just set up=20
hosts.allow for your LAN and hosts.deny for ALL: ALL.

Subject: Samba nmbd & windows 95
Date: Mon, 1 Feb 1999 11:09:19 +0100

Hi,

Could someone please help me with this situation:

I have RHL 4.1 running on a 486 notebook. I installed a Target
Ethernet -PCMCIA-card. Between this machine and a P133 with Windows95 on it,
tcp/ip works fine. Pinging is ok. Telnet works fine.

I want to use Samba to share a linux directory '/home/public'. All works
fine on the linux-machine itself. When I use smbclient a can access the
directory. Samba also reports the services, when asked with 'smbclient -L
host'.

However Windows 95 does not see any (NetBIOS)host except itself. I tried
everything to get it to recognise the name of the linux-host: filling in the
lmhosts-file, activating WINS.

The smbd en nmbd are started through inetd in my configuration. When the're
not running, and I use smbclient to inquire, the deamons are started and the
correct response follows. An inquiry using 'net view' or a request using
'net use' does not lead to deamons starting.

It seems that somethings wrong with the listening to the netbios ports in
the services file, but I can not understand what. The samba logfile reports:
'bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0 (Address already in use)', just after
'becoming a deamon'.

The relevant part of the services file looks like this:

netbios-ns        137/tcp     nbns
netbios-ns        137/udp    nbns
netbios-dgm    138/tcp      nbdgm
netbios-dgm    138/udp    nbdgm
netbios-ssn     139/tcp      nbssn

The related piece of inetd.conf is (using tabs as separator):

netbios-ssn     stream      tcp   nowait  root  /usr/sbin/smbd  smbd
netbios-ns       dgram       udp  wait      root  /usr/sbin/nmbd  nmbd

I've read the documentation ten times and backwards, I haven't got a clue,
do you?

Thanks
Victor.

No, your problem has nothing to do with PAM. rpc.mountd and rpc.nfsd

You are right. Even if you switch to FD using the setup software it
will still go back to HD. It also seems to default to 10Mb if your
switch/hub supports that.

The solution is to compile the driver as a module and load it like
this:

/sbin/modprobe 3c59x options=5 full_duplex=1

This sets 100Mb mode & full duplex, setting full_duplex=0 will
probably select Half Duplex instead.

You appear to be confused.  I did not as far as I recall post to the thread

I have *never* seen any mention of "7 stop bits".  "7 data bits" is

What I try to impress on people is that if there are already 100 other posts
substancially identical to what they are about to post then they should read
the replies to those and explain in their post why the common answers don't
help them.  Failure to do so means they'll just get the same answers again

Do you have a problem with this?  Does it not seem obvious once it's been

Are you seriously contending that I am not one of the helpful and knowledgable
ones?  Have you looked at my Dejanews profile?  I've looked at yours.

On the 98 box,

Startup Regedit

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Find the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/VxD/VNETSUP


>From the menu bar, select Edit/New/DWORD Value

Rename the new entry to EnablePlainTextPassword

double click the new entry, and set its value to 1

Exit and reboot

there are a few basic things that i dont know, did you try 'em or not?

like :

have those two machines connected earlier, maybe with win95 on both , or linux
on both ...
so we would know the physical connection is ok.

next:
can each machine ping itself
( like ping 127.0.0.1, and ping "the-name-of-machine-you-try-to ping -from" )

if all else works, try tcpdump to see more about the packets

Does Linux support this? If so, how do you configure it?
