I'm using BNC connectors with thinnet wire (I believe). The cards are
terminated properly, also. I had the cards working when the Linux box
was running Windows NT... I could connect using Netbeui. I never did
get the tcp/ip network going with Win95/NT even, so that's why I'm
wondering if my tcp/ip setup skills need polishing.

I was reading someone else's message and they seem to be doing the same
thing as me... hooking two machines up together. I don't have a hub,
either, and that is what people pointed would be this person's problem.
But what I see different about me is that I actually had a netbeui
network going between two Windows machines before I turned one of them
into a linux machine. Now I can't connect.
Just thought I'd put that out to you..
Thanks!

Subject: RedHat Control panel runaway.
I have a RH5.2 firewall system setup with no monitor, keyboard or mouse,
but have Xfree86 running to serve my x-term network connection.
Most times on connection I see one or more processes named
'control panel (something-or-other)' using up a lot of CPU time, so I
kill it.
Is there some way of preventing this process from starting ?

If your machine has no monitor, no keyboard, and no mouse, then there's no
need for it to start the X Server... Just don't start the X server...

Yes! Nothing special!
I got DSL hooked up two days ago (Monday). Our telephone company,
USWest, sent a complete package that has an external digital modem
(Cisco 675) and a 3COM 3C509B NIC. All cables, instructions, etc. were
included. The modem acts as a bridge between the telephone line and
standard 10-baseT EtherNet. This is what makes it a charm.
I have a small LAN of five computers (geek city). One is an ancient P100
running 2.2.1 kernel optimized as a router, and set up as a firewall. I
simply plugged one end of the twisted pair cable into the modem and the
other into the new NIC. (Cables included.) I plugged in the phone line,
installed a new telephone face plate with the high-band filters for the
phone, checked the signal-noise ratio on the modem and got excited when
I saw that my 256k connection is *upstream* with 630k downstream.
I can't say enough about the DSL service. It really rocks.

You can connect them to any serial port if you have one available.
It has been awhile since I have done it, but I think you use a "cross
over" serial cable ie send goes to receive. You also have to change
the init table so that the getty will start.
I think it is the Serial HOWTO that tells you what to do and it really
isn't that hard.

Our local TelCo offering ADSL says they only support PCs running Windows
95/98 and MACs. Do you think they have done something unique? Or could I
let them set it up on a PC with Win95 as they require, then just move the
NIC to the Linux box?
Also, in your network, how does each computer access the internet? Are you
running a proxy server on the machine connected to DSL modem?
My understanding of these things is weak, so please excuse me.
