I've noticed this also.  StarOffice seems to have a problem
sending through the loopback interface.  I can send to my
sendmail daemon over my lan but not through the loopback.

StarOffice's newsreader always posts in "quoted-printable"
mime encoding, which uses the "=20" tags to indicate a line
feed (ascii 20).  I haven't found any way of turning it off
in the newsreader.

The configure script is not expecting egcs version string. You should find

Hi,

I have a problem with Samba and Windows95.
There are two PCs, one running Windows95 (OSR 2), one running SuSE
Linux 6.0.
I wanted to create a network connection between those PCs (both with
3Com Etherlink III ISA (3C509b-Combo)), but there is no chance for me.
I'm not a network guru and hope anybody can answer me.
Windows Network is configured with TCP/IP, no DNS support and with
IP 192.168.0.98. My Linux server has IP 192.168.0.99.
I tried many times to find a configuration with "smb.conf" to get
the connection running, but nothing happens. On my Windows PC I can see
the Samba server, but connections are not possible.
The call of "smbclient -L host" on my Linux-PC shows correct values.
"Testparm" also tells everything ok.
Each of the PCs can "ping" himself.
What can I do to get the system running ???
Help me, please.

Thanks Karsten

I am having this problem with Named (whichever version comes with RedHat

few days, usually) some of the CNAME's stop responding. At the moment,
it will respond to domain.com, and www.domain.com but not to
ftp.domain.com and mail.domain.com. (All domain IPs are on a Windows NT

Any ideas on what is going on?

You have to edit your /etc/exports file on the P2. add the following lines for
each workstation you are setting up:
/cdrom    hostname.of.workstation(ro)
and make sure the hostname is in /etc/hosts. This line gives
hostname.of.workstation read-only (ro) access to /cdrom. This should fix your
problem

If you're running a 2.1.x or 2.2.x series kernel, they include support for
HFS volumes, though not HFS+, AFAIK. There are varous mount options for
this filesystem, one of which mounts it so that the resource fork appears
in a format compatible with netatalk.  The end result is that you can
stick a Mac floppy, Zip disk, CD-ROM, or whatever in the Linux box, mount
it, and read it via the network on a real Mac, and it'll behave very much
as if the device itself were connected to the Mac. (It's not quite
identical, but it's close. One big problem is that PC hardware can't read
the Mac 400kB and 800kB floppy formats, so for floppies, only 1.44MB
floppies will work.) Word on the Linux/PPC groups is that this support is
likely to corrupt an HFS volume if used extensively in read/write mode, so
I wouldn't recommend using it for read/write access to critical Mac disks.
This probably isn't a big deal for floppies or Zip disks, though.

There's a kernel HFS filesystem driver patch available for kernels in the
2.0.x series, too. It's available at
http://www-sccm.Stanford.EDU/~hargrove/HFS/. I don't know if this patch is
related to what's in the recent 2.1.x and 2.2.x kernels, though.

"ls -l /dev/modem" shows the real serial device, and ln will change

Just out of curiosity, are there virus's for Linux?  This may sound stupid,
but I haven't been running Linux long enough to get a virus.  I've seen a
couple of virus program for Linux, but not the amount that I've seen (and had
to run) for Windows.  If anyone has any info, I'd appreciate it.

Subject: Capturing Masq Packets with Sniffit
Date: Sun, 07 Feb 1999 15:28:44 GMT

    I'm using Sniffit (lastest beta off the sniffit page) to capture
packets on my RedHat 5.2 Firewall.  The program works fine for capturing
packets that come directly to or from the firewall (ex. Telnet) but not
for any of the packets that are masqueraded through the firewall.
    The server is used to provide internet access for our 80 user LAN
and I am trying to use sniffit it so we can monitor web traffic to see
if anyone is surfing where they shouldn't be.  Right now sniffit
captures everything on the 192.168.1.0 net.  Why don't I get masqueraded
packets?  Is it maybe because sniffit uses the internal network
interface (as opposed to the card that is on the external side of the
firewall)?
    Any help would be most appreciated.

Date: Mon, 08 Feb 1999 03:25:34 GMT

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====

I have a small token ring network at home (2 machines) that worked fine
until recently.  The change I made was to change from a private IP
address allocation (192.168.x.x netmask 255.255.255.0) to a public IP
address allocation (x.x.213.136-143 netmask 255.255.255.248).  After I
made this change, almost all network usage became impossible.  I can
ping between the two boxes (one with 2.0.36, the other with 2.2.0ac1)
just fine, however, everything else fails.  Here's the relevant portion
from ifconfig:

tr0  Link encap:16/4 Mbps TR  HWaddr 00:04:AC:76:1E:33
     inet addr:xxx.xxx.213.137  Bcast:xxx.xxx.213.143 Mask:255.255.255.248

     TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:5311
     Interrupt:10 Base address:0xa24 Memory:dc000-dffff

The ifconfig info from the opposite end looks similar.  It seems that 
somehow the packets aren't being received correctly.  Does the token
ring driver support CIDR?  If not, are there any patches or workarounds
that would work for this?  My plan was to route this subnet through a
PPP connection using IPchains.  Any help is appreciated!  (Please cc: me
in any replies.)

Hi,

I have a strange issue with my Linux machine at home.

Basically When I start Win95 and try to connect to Linux using NetHood I 
cannot see the Linux box. I can try a /etc/..smb stop / start ... nothing 
makes a difference. 

However, if I open Netscape on the W95 machine and access Apache by the 
IP address, or telnet into the Linux box using the IP address, then go 
back to NetHood .. lo and behold, my Linux box (and workgroup "vortex") 
appears!

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Then I tried to reinstall glibc, because I thought this would solve
the problem, but even this installation stops now with an error.
The first errer could have been because I created a link

error??
Anybody has any idea what to do?

I'm in a similar boat!  I have a 486-66 PCI machine and all the PCI
ethernet cards i've bought have problems.  The Etherlink and the 3Com905
_kill_ the machine.  It won't even boot the BIOS with the card installed.
The
SN3200 card will boot but the PCI bus gives it an IO address or an IRQ that
is illegal and the thing refuses to work.

To see if the PCI bus has picked up the card, go to /proc/ and look at (cat)
the
PCI file.  It'll describe what the pci bus has found and what IO and IRQ
it's been
given.  This assumes, of course, that you have a PCI bus.

If not... um... never mind.  :-)

The reason I would like to use 100-BaseT Ethernet at home is so that I can
use SMB-mounted drives as source for CD-R.  10-BaseT is too unreliable for
any serious CD-R recording, especially at 4x and 8x speeds.  100-BaseT is
the only practical solution for this, also when I am doing disk intensive
tasks directly ober the network, such as using vcdgear to convert a .dat to
a .mpg (500 MB+ file) over a network mounted drive, 10-BaseT takes upwards
of an hour to do this, which is a total waste of time.  If I has 100-BaseT,
network mounted drives would be basically about as fast as local drives.

Subject: glibc 2.0.6 now error compiling kernel
Date: Sun, 07 Feb 1999 16:52:57 GMT

I have just installed glibc on my linux box that has kernel 2.2.1. I
now wanted to recompile the kernel, cause I changed glibc after having
changed the kernel. Now I get all the time error messages, when I try
to run 
make menuconfig
it says something that my curses.h causes problems.
Then I tried to reinstall glibc, because I thought this would solve
the problem, but even this installation stops now with an error.
The first errer could have been because I created a link 
ln -s /usr/lib/g++include  /usr/include/g++
but the source directory never existed. Could this have caused the
error??
Anybody has any idea what to do?

Subject: isdn4k utilities and ISDN
Date: Sun, 07 Feb 1999 16:52:24 GMT

I have my installed my ISDN card properly (tested under DOS) and I
have messages during the bootup of Linux, that HiSax and ISDN is
recognized. Now I wanted to install the isdn4k tools, but I always get
an error message /isdnctrl could not been installed, after having
entered
make 
or 
make install.

I am using Linux 2.2.1 (and I had the same problem a week ago when I
used 2.0.35)

Can someone help?

Here some output
