Hi All,
I have setup SAMBA with Linux so that I can successfully browse Network
Neighborhood in Win98 and see the Linux box... when I go to map a network
drive I am asked for a password. Each time I give it it tells me that the
password is wrong... any ideas?
Thanks in advance

It sounds like a similiar problem that I ran into. If the root partition
on you hard drive is configured so that it crosses the 1024 cylinder
(or sector, I forget which) boundry, then the PC's BIOS is unable
to load the boot information. I had to use Partition Magic to move
the root partition to the beginning of the drive, boot from the resuce
disk and re-run lilo. Once that was done, I no problems.
Hope this helps...

Have you told ICQ which ports to listen on?
Under connection, click on firewall or proxy, then in firewall setting, select
other, then input the port range for that client.

Ignore this question. It seems to be part of the known problem with HP-UX
taht the system hangs if there is some problem accessing the .sh_history
file. The problem only occurs for users with NFS mounted home directories.

Subject: trying to route a home LAN to the Net
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 18:34:34 GMT
I have my Linux box connecting to the Net with an static IP, using
PPP0 (modem). I have the network card (eth0) netrworked to a Win95
box using a 192.168.1.0 network.
Now, I would like to route the 192.168.1.0 network to the Net.
First, I suppose I need to set routing between the two networks,
something like:
route add 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 209.123.123.xxx metric1 ????????
Then, IP Masquerading to hide the 192.xxx.xxx.xxx. addresses ...how?
My Linux books don't say anything about this.
I know this is commonly used among LInux users to get a little
home/office network on the Net.
Is there a document published about this somewhere?

Packet socket
CONFIG_PACKET
The Packet protocol is used by applications which communicate
directly with network devices without an intermediate network
protocol implemented in the kernel, e.g. tcpdump. If you want them
to work, choose Y. This driver is also available as a module called
af_packet.o ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the
running kernel whenever you want). If you want to compile it as a
module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If unsure,
say Y.

this is a known bug of dhcpcd-0.70
you have to get a patch for it, or a rectified 'if.c' file wich is the file
to patch.
i think you should be able to find it (ask on irc, or try to look for it in

Date: Mon, 29 Mar 1999 20:06:46 GMT
I'm glad Linux will scale up this project could get very large and I would
hate to underestimate what I need. We have a firewall which
is configured to let dial in people through, I don't believe it will proxy
however
and that's why I have been asked to look for alternate solutions. Currently
dial
in users get a real world ip, I would like to change this to a 192.168.x.x
for Intranet and
Linux would Proxy users requests to the Internet. Will squid configure
happily
behind a Cisco firewall and does this sound like a workable solution?

Subject: I need basic network help for LINUX and Windows-NT
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 15:14:20 GMT
I am a LINUX novice who has been a UNIX user for Umpteen years. I know
virtually nothing about installation and particularly about setting up
networks. There has to be somebody who has really set up a LINUX machine to
talk to a Windows-NT DNS DHCP network and I'm trying to figure it out from
first principles. My frustration is that all the usenet and web messages I
can find tell what to do what it doesn't work and I don't even know what the
basic procedure is.
We have a bunch of NT machines running DNS, TCP/IP, and DHCP. (I don't
really know what those terms *mean*, but that's what we have.) As a profound
Windows hater, I have been doing all my code development, large simulations
and analyses, under MS-DOS and LINUX looks like a much better alternative.
In particular, it means I should be able to network my machine so I can copy
files without having to use diskettes. As the files I am going to need for
this project are many megabytes, diskettes are looking less attractive all
the time.
I got a LinkSys Etherfast 10/100 LAN card (which my HOWTO file says is
"supported") for my E-machine Pentium equivalent running RedHat Linux 5.2.
(I actually got the Linux from the Sams book, so I don't have RedHat's own
manual. If that would help, then I'm happy just to get *that* feedback.) I
tried popping the RedHat CD into the CD-ROM and doing an "upgrade," but there
appears to be more stuff I need to know. I have a 10.0.0.2 address and a
Port 80, they tell me, and a domain name (which we can call MYDOMAIN for this
discussion).
I don't need e-mail or web surfing as we have that under Windows. I
consider copying files both ways essential and being able to log into Linux
from Windows (using Telnet for example) to be very nice. I figure there has
got to be some document that walks a network novice through the basic steps of
how to make Linux talk to an existing NT network. Maybe there is even a web
page, but remember that I may be a whiz-bang FORTRAN and C programmer who can
even write nice shell scripts and tools, but I am a real ignoramus when it
comes to Linux administration and computer networking. So telling me to "ping
the server" doesn't help, but telling me to type "ping -X -P 104.0.0.88" and
note if the response is that it didn't find anything helps a lot. I really
have *no* intuition about this stuff; I just want to be a *user*.
I'm not a usenet user, so any response would be most advantagous sent
directly to my e-mail here at work ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or at home
([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I'm anxious to join the Linux community as I have had
it "up to here" with Windows and Microsoft. I know that as soon as I learn
one Microsoft system, next month's version will have different rules and a
different interface and new bugs: who needs that? Linux seems to be going
the right direction in keeping working software working.
Thank you, in advance, to anybody who can give me some good hints.

- location 3 -
===============
location 3 has x number of computers, but is only recieving one ip from
it's ISP (location 2). Someone in administration decides proxy serving
or
ip masquerading would be too slow. What they are proposing is to install
a
router and get x number of ips from it's ISP (location 2). Location 2
denies the request. Administration at location 3 then decides that
location 1, which is a class B domain has plenty of ips, and they could
get
x number of ips from location 1. Would someone please explain to me how
this is possible?
Thank you.

NIC Network Interface Card
It's the card that connects your computer to your network
NFS Network File System
It's software that allows one computer to transparently
access files on a second computer. Similar to Netware,
Banyan Vines, and LANMAN (Microsoft Networks), it provides
direct file access over a network.

Subject: tin does not get any data
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 19:06:12 GMT
The newsreader tin does not get any data from the ISP.
It shows about 4 groups, each of which is empty.
Whatever I do, tin does not try to get data from the ISP, no new groups and no
messages.
What can this be? I am on-line when I try this.
Regards, Michiel

Read up on IP masquerading (Mini HowTo at the www.linux.org site),
that should do the trick.

Hey,
I'm installing RH linux on Dell I3500, and the 3Com pc card 575 CB. The card

I'm using pcmcia-cs-3.0.9 (or .6)
Thanks for helping

Subject: Recommend simple mail prog
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 1999 12:23:44 +0000
Hello,
I have been trying to find a simple mail program, preferably X-based,
that will let me send mail directly to a remote outgoing server without
having sendmail running on my own system, basically the way Netscape
does it.
I need to be able to supply the recipient's e-mail address on the
command line. This is why I cannot use Netscape - when I try to run
Netscape with a mailto: address, as in
# netscape mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
a send-message window does open up, but the e-mail address is not placed
in the To: field! (why the hell not!? I don't know)
I am operating behind a firewall and have had no luck getting sendmail
or ssmtp to work behind it. Netscape does fine due to its proxy support
but can't use it for this purpose for the reason above. Whatever
program I use will have to work with 'runsocks', the part of SOCKS5 that
makes any networking program socks-aware.
Thanks in advance,
Nick
