Nonsense? RedHat 5.2 is not the 2.2 kernel by default, it's 2.1.x. NTFS
support was added in 2.2. Perhaps he didn't download the latest kernel.
Who would, it's pretty buggy.

tcgetattr has always meant that there is another process besides
pppd that is contending for the modem IRQ. Some examples are (1) an
ethernet card that used the same IRQ as the modem, (2) a misconfigured
ppp script that launched pppd twice, and (3) a mingetty that somehow
had been configured for call-in. If yours is different, I would be

I had something similar happen recently when I did something foolish (I've
forgotten which foolish thing it was :) . It turned out that there was
an interface that hadn't been properly taken down, either sl0 or ppp0.
The problem went away when the interface was manually taken down with, e.g.,
"ifconfig ppp0 down".

All, right, this maybe a obvious question to some; if it is, then either
ATFQ, or point me in the direction of the right HOWTO, so I can RTFM. I
just don't seem to have found the right one, yet.
One to the question: I need to know how my localhost name, say,
hellbilly, relates to my ISP, navix.net . Should I enter my FQDN as
hellbilly.navix.net, even though I am not really a machine on their net,
per se. What if they suddenly added a machine w/ the same name? Would
all of my mail go to them? The reason I ask is I had thought I had
qmail setup on my machine when it was running RH5.2, and I was having
some problems w/ INN, and since root doesn't get mail messages under
qmail, so it(my box) was emailing the error messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
After a few days, the sysadmin sent me a nice email asking that I quit
that. Oops. Anyway, in the scenario described above, would the
'proper' name for my box hellbilly w/ a dialup connection to host
navix.net be hellbilly.navix.net? If so, what is the best way to make
it so I can send & receive email w/ the proper addressing w/o pissing
off my ISP? Netscape seems to work fine, but rather automagically.
Thanks in advance,

I've been struggling for days to get my Win98 <-> Linux network going, and
my Linux box still can't ping itself. I know my hardware is OK because the
Linux box is a dual-booter with Win95. Booted up to Windows, both machines

Finding information on this subject seems to be difficult. Is EQL the only
Linux support for "Multilink PPP"?
Is EQL compatible with an ISP running a US Robotics Total Control Box? If
anyone is aware of some detailed documentation on configuring Linux for
Multilink PPP, please let me know.
More importantly, when an ISP says they support Multilink PPP, does this
mean EQL will work, or is there some other method for doing Multilink?

Filesystems exported from Linux seem unmountable under AIX. I've tried
the 2.0.33, 2.0.36, and 2.1.131 (each with the appropriate nfsd). I have
not tried the knfsd, but let's assume that the user level NFS has not
been broken all these years. All I get is "The file permissions do not
allow the desired operation." They do on other Linux boxes, AIX mounts
off of other AIX, Linux mounts off AIX, etc.
Any clues?

Subject: 98 telnet doesn't work but ftp works
Date: Mon, 1 Mar 1999 22:52:25 -0500
Hi there,
In a Linux-to-Windows 98 LAN, 'c:\telnet mylinuxbox' doesn't work. After
telnet window pops up, it dies before 'login:' prompt. The Oracle 'sqlplus'
in Window environment doesn't establish the connection with Oracle server
on Linux box as well.
But, 'c:\sqlplus orcl' in Dos works and 'c:\tnsping orcl' is normal. In
fact, Linux-to-Windows 95 works. That means my Linux box and my LAN
connection are ok. In 98 box, I can do 'c:\ftp mylinuxbox' as well. I guess
the problem in this without DUN LAN is Winsock doesn't work. Actually, the
98 box comes with a internal modem but I don't want to use it so I didn't
setup the DUN and IE now.
Any hit will be welcome.
Thank you.

192.168.150.0. I've tried ipautofw and ipportfw, both of which do not work. if
I turn on bridging it works. (but it kinda defeats the purpose of a firewall

I am sure that the Newbies who will be fortunate enough to read your Post
and go to the suggested Link will probobly remember you with gratitude for a
long time.
The Tutorial & Guide to which you are reffering to is probobly one of the
Best Begginer Guide in the World( written by Matt Welsh etc. he is also one
of the authors of the highly recommended book="Running Linux").
The Link you gave is very good for Online Reading, But I've found another
Place on the Web which I think is even better, since here you can find the
above mentioned Guide and also download the whole Guide in many different
Formats (I prefer the HTML) in addition you will find many other Goodies
:-))
Here it is: http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/ldp.html
There is another site which I highly recommend. "Eric Raymond's" home page.
If you are wondering who he is, in that case you are a Newbie for sure. But
I can assure you, that spending a little time at his page will definatelly
put a fire under you regarding not wanting to be a Newbie for to long.
Ofcourse you will also discover the reason as to why he is so admired by
those who count, and why he is considered to be One of the Top Gurus in the

_IF_ your ISP's machine will accept an NNTP connection from the net you
can use Slirp, Suck, Leafnode, etc. It's a big if, however. I'd be

You can check it out by trying to telnet into your ISP's machine on port

up and see if it will let you post.
Again, this is a long shot.

Subject: Where to find driver for Proteon Token Ring NIC?
Date: Mon, 01 Mar 1999 13:13:15 -0500
Greetings to all:
I'm planning in using RedHat Linux 5.2 with couple of Proteon T/R NIC,
but I can't find the driver for it, I was told that TR is poorly
supported, can anyone give me a hint where can I find a driver for
Proteon NIC or how I can make it work? I'm trying to save some money to
use my old NICs and hubs.
Your suggestion/comments is much appreciated.

Yes - I just double-checked now and there is definitely no conflict. In
fact, I've already removed my sound card and modem. On the Win95 box, I
can ping 10.2.2.3 fine too. Just not 10.2.2.2 (linux). :(
Perhaps my selection of ip's is at fault? I set the subnet mask to
255.0.0.0, which should be correct according to what I've read, as a
class A network address?
At least we're narrowing things down; thanks.
