It seems your problem probably lies in the dhcpc part
try this:
download dhcpcd-0_70-2_i386.rpm (a link follows)
install it
activate your ethernet card
from a shell type
dhcpcd -h <yourcomputername>
this will pass your computer name to media one
then they will issue your ip address
More info is available here

Hi!
Strange thing:
Got 2 Solaris - Stations. Both have the same smb.conf (expect the shared
directories), i.e. same global
section. Mounting/Browsing the shares is only for one of the both
stations possibly.
The one that isn't browseable is a NIS+-Server.
Does anyone know about this?
Thanks!

uugetty is a bit broken; I fixed it myself, but I see no official
maintainer that might be interested in the fixes. Most important is
that for uucp bidirectional use of the modem the tty line must be owned
by uucp and not root, and the current uugetty dosn't allow that.
There is also a mingetty which you'll find on redhat systems for the consoles.

Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 09:09:47 GMT
Hello All,
Can anyone give me some examples configs of using ipfwadm (or preferably
ipchains) of setting up a Linux box as a firewall (blocking certain udp/tcp
based ports) and acting as a NAT box for machines connected via ethernet
assuming the linux box has a internet connection through eth0?
Just a quick example, I'll be able to pick it up once I see a working
config/command line
Thanks!

Subject: networking problems
Date: 09 Feb 1999 19:18:39 +0000
hi
i seem to have problems with a little network, consisting of three
computers that are connected via a hub. the first computer's ip is
192.168.1.1, the second computer has the ip 192.168.1.2 and the third
computer has the ip 192.168.1.3. The problem is that i can happily
telnet/ftp/ping/... from the third computer to the first, from the
second to the first, but neither from the second to the third, nor
from the third to the second. i can also 'see' the second and third
computer from the first.
what this all means is that in order to get from the third computer to
the second i must go via the first, i.e. telnet from 3->1 and then
from 1-> 2. that is kind of stupid, isn't it? i cannot quite figure
out what the problem is. can anyone help ? what could the problem
possibly be ? if more information is required, please let me know.
cheers,
carsten

I'm having some of the same problems with my @home connection. Let me

a few things in some different NG's so hopefully I'll get it figured

Yes, have a read of the PPP howto's, they should cover both dialout and
dialin setups.
There are extensions to ppp that convince it to provide MS-DNS and WINS
info to dial in clients

<p>I am the only user of that machine. I checked the IP and found it belongs
<br>to something I have never heard of:
<p> Tampa Bay Library Consortium
(NETBLK-TBLC3-NET)
TBLC3-NET
<br>
207.22.144.0 - 207.22.151.0
<p>I wonder what these mean, and what that guy was doing. I don't know
much about
<br>Linux, but heard that mail server port was the security weakpoint.
What should
<br>I do? Is it possible for me to reject connection from that IP address?
<br>One Linux box in our LAN was hacked before so I am quite sensitive
to this.
<br>Please email me any input to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

You could run 'tcpdump -i ppp0' to find out what data on what port
is being sent, then you could add a rule in diald.conf to ignore these
packets.
I'm also running diald with ip masquerading but I don't have a constant
stream of packets going through ppp0, so maybe it is just some strange
program running on one of your machines generating the traffic, tcpdump
should help you track this down too.

Subject: Problems with chat...
Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 12:39:36 -0100
Hello everybody,
I'm affraid this question has been posted sometime before...
I have a PCMCIA modem (Kingmax 56K, V.90). I can run minicom and connect
properly to my host. But chat is no use: I get no answer from the modem
and it doesn't dial the number. I read somewhere to try
$chat TIMEOUT 3 "" \rAT OK-+++\c-OK AT&D2&C1 TIMEOUT 60 OK ATDTmy_number
and so on...
but for some reason D2 and C1 are not recognized...
Could anyone tell me what this means?
The modem is supposed to work under any OS (as stated in its manual),
provided you have the socket and card drivers... which apparently is the
case since it works properly under minicom.
Thank you very much in advance,
Miguel

Thanks; I have since tried the newer ppp again and made some
scripting changes and it appears to work.
Now I just need to get the tape drive going...
