Actually, I couldn't find one. The "Changes" file in the distribution
says there are two versions of dhcpcd: "before v.1.3" and since then.

It is a sendmail issue.
I believe that you have to configure /etc/sendmail.cf for masquerading
as from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I run 8.8.7 and all that I did was to assign a value of my domain
(bigbrie.com
in your case) to the macro M and uncomment the masquerading part in
ruleset 94 in sendmail.cf.
hope this helps

MS does have a null modem driver, but I don't have it or know the name.

Subject: DHCP, MS Proxy, working with/again NT
Been forced to use a network where you run as a microsoft client. IP's
are allocated through DHCP, how do I set that up ? Read the howto's, but
if someone would be so kind to be a little more specific on it I would
be grateful. Also, under DOS 8.0 ( oops! , Win98 ) need to be a MS
Proxy installed and running as a client, to gain outside access. How do
I set this up? any ideas would be great. I have an idea that I could get
the SOCKS software, and somehow set that up as a client, though this is
only an idea, how this is implemented is beyond me at the present time.
No way do I want run windoze, but if the worst comes to the worst, I
may, just have to use, the worst........ Any information, websites,
old news articles, books, software vendors, ideas and encouragement
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

The 3C509 (and 905) card requires some special work. Add to the
/etc/conf.modules file the following:
alias eth0 3C905
options 3C905 IO=0x360 IRQ=10
NOTE: The above edit to the conf.modules file assumes you know the true
IO Address and you know a free IRQ address. Also I have used the default
eth0 interface which I presume you are using the first Ethernet
interface. If not, change this to the next interface such as eth1.
Then you need to insert the required drivers for this type of Ethernet
card. Unlike most of the newer cards you need two drivers. Run the
following after you edit the file:
ins mod 8390.o
ins mod ne2000.o
Unless you are ready to rebuild the kernel, which is not a real big deal
with Linux (I'm using Redhat 5.1 as example) you could add the ins mod
commands into your start-up script perhaps a simple addition in the
network rc3 script prior to the ifconfig's for each interface.
I have worked with UNIX for over 20 years and LINUX for the past 5
years. The above solution will work as long as your hardware is working
and you are sure of the user dip switch being set to the unused IO
address and IRQ address. A conflict with either address of course will
be cause to much trouble. Check the board via the vendor dip switch map
and double check your IO boards for a free IRQ address.
PS. You note the Ethernet card as a 3C905. My solution has worked with
the 3C509 card which is a older version of a 3C card. You may have
listed your card as 3C905 when in fact you have a 3C509. I have never
seen a 905 3C Ethernet card. If you have made a error in your card ID
and you have a 509, my solution will work no doubt. If you do have a
905, I'm pretty sure you will still need to load the NE2000 driver to
use the 9xx series of 3C Ethernet cards.
Good Luck...

If the modem has two "head phone" jacks on it, it's a good indicator that the
modem is
voice capable. An external (you didn't say which it was) should have pictures
next to
the jacks signifying microphone or speaker, and the internal should have the
same, except
using text instead of pictures.
I haven't used spk, but I did play with mgetty. I finally came to the
conclusion that I needed
to upgrade my modem, rather that screw around with it anymore, but mgetty did
look pretty
good. I don't know anything about success or failure with any other types of
modems.

Use Win95 to figure out what your settings are for the card (IRQ and port
address), then when ya boot up, use the kernel options
ether=irq,addr,eth0
so if your card is eth0, and its set to irq 10, addr 0x300:
ether=10,0x300,eth0

Well, I definitely don't have any problems associated with the address
begin sent; my IP just ignores it and I get a different address.
As for your situation: is it just the ping that doesn't work, or are
you stuck with everything else as well? I seem to recall seeing the
same thing at some point in my testing of my current screwball setup,
and I think it resulted from my firewalling (ipchains/ipfwadmin) setup
(I completely firewalled myself in).
Do you see a message somewhere indicating that you've been assigned a
dynamic address (I assume you're doing dynamic IP assignment)? Does
ifconfig confirm that your ppp interface has that address?
Oh yeah, another possibility: does your default route (see the route
command) go through the ppp gateway, or through the ethernet card?
That's actually probably your problem! But I'll leave the rest of my
drivel here just in case.
