Remote NT4.0-shutdown from Linux? ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

From: "Jaze" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: Multiple Ethernet Cards
Date: Fri, 5 Mar 1999 02:55:26 -0800
I followed the Ethernet Howto for multiple ethernet cards and when I
modprobe the second card, a 3c507, I get this message
no dependency information for module: "/lib/modules/2.0.36/net/3c507.o"
What, may I ask, does this mean and how could I solve it? I need the card
to work so that I can use it as an FTP server to install Linux on another
machine. I originally thought that maybe it would be the I/O and interrupt
settings, but the card doesn't have any jumpers on it.
Any help is good help. Thanks.

I can browse from both machines. For W95, I am using proxy on linux. I also
have masquerading on but I do not use it for browsing. In my experience,
browsing using masquerading has been very slow compared to using a proxy.
In my windows machine I supplied linux machine as gateway, it worked. I could
read mail. What does it mean? Am I using masquerading now for mail?

Subject: ifconfig tap1 trouble, multiple ethertaps don't work
Date: 04 Mar 1999 10:18:53 -0500
My kernel is 2.2.2, compiled with gcc 2.7.2.3 on a PII system.
I have configured the ethertap driver as a module. Other modules
load with out error. And in the case of the tulip driver, I am using
a 4 port 10/100 ether card, the tulip driver supports all 4 interfaces
just fine, (ie. I can ifconfig eth1, eth2, eth3 and eth4).
Ethertap loads okay too, and I can use the first tap, tap0, but I
cannot use any other taps, (ie. tap1, tap2, etc.).
# ifconfig tap0

I am a little confused as to what I need (if anything) in
/etc/conf.modules. I have tried a number of combinations, but this is
what I have now...

Any advice?

Subject: Adding private SNMP mibs
Crossposted-To: comp.dcom.net-management,comp.dcom.net-analysis
Date: Thu, 04 Mar 1999 16:16:50 GMT
I've got a Redhat 5.2 linux box. I'm running MRTG (Multi Router Traffic
Grapher) on it. I'm trying to poll for some private CISCO mib variables.
Specifically, I'm looking for packets. The variables are not available
in the standard mibs.
Anyway, when I do a snmpget command it says the mib variables are
unknown. I'm assuming I need to install the private mibs from CISCO.
I'm told I need to compile the mibs on the box. So I found CMU-SNMP.
I downloaded the SRC, compiled it, and afterwards it locked up my box...
Being a newbie to Linux I'm not sure if it was me or what. I'm not even
sure CMU-SNMP is what I need.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I've already had to rebuild
the box 3 times because of this! :(
Please copy any response to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks alot!

Try http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html
It has a table with success markers for a large number of modem models. It
also highlights the Winmodems so you can avoid them.

If SCO is crashing, it's the SCO box's fault. It doesn't matter what
the Linux box is doing, by design, accident or stupidity: if the SCO
reacts by crashing, it's that box that has the problem. Whether or not
the problem is the OS or the hardware obviously requires more work to
determine, but even if the Linux box shouldn't be doing whatever it is
that it is doing, the SCO box still shouldn't crash.

Thats what I get for not looking at the port number closely.
Barry is correct in that the session being queried is for an outbound
Telnet session. This has nothing to do with Sendmail, although thats
what almost everybody asks about.

Ident is a simple protocol that is used to determine the account that is
associated with a specific connection. For example, when you send mail
to your mail server, the mail server may want to use Ident to find out
who is sending the mail by querying your local TCP stack for that
connection's owner, giving it more info for the logs.

In the example above, root was the owner of the connection.
This is standard behavior with the latest versions of Sendmail. If it
bothers you, deinstall the ident service (may be called "auth," the old
name for the protocol).

It does. From kernel 2.2 it's even default.

Yeah, mr gates.
i'm new to Linux, x environment, all of it. after installation pains i find
out that winmodems are shit in Linux. i guess no internet connect until i
get a new modem.
i've seen posted some where, a script that enables winmodem use. it's
probably beyond my capabilities now, but i'm interested, but need pretty
complete info to just to understand how to get it, run it etc......

If you would like to have a graphical representation of all traffic
going through a specific interface, you can use MRTG in combination with
CMU=B4s SNMPd.

Hi,
I am learning to setup a Linux gateway.
I have 3 Linux boxes (Redhat 5.1) connected as in diagram shown below.
My problem:
At host A:
I can ping 192.168.1.2 (host B/eth1)
Why I can not ping 192.168.1.1 (host C)
At host C:
I can ping 192.168.2.2 (host B/eth0)
Why I can not ping 192.168.2.1 (host A)
Mainly, I can not access from one segment to another beyond
the gateway B.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

for host A:
route to destination 192.168.2.0/24 through eth0
route to destination 192.168.1.0/24 through eth0 (or to default)
for host B:

Matt,
I run Solaris 7.01 and Linux 2.2.2 with no problems. Both systems are
set to automount NFS exports from each.
I did have a problem with non 2.2.X kernels with truncation of files but
the locking in Linux 2.2.2 has taken care of that.
