Subject: $6 for $42000 in four weeks
Date: Sat, 3 Apr 1999 22:24:01 +0400
THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!! IT WORKS!!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT
TO A LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!!
A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are
now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make
thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00!
So I thought," Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was
curious, so I kept reading.
Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address
stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the
bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups.
(There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and
talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what
have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right? Like most of us I was a
little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all. So
I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they
confirmed that it is indeed legal! Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well
GUESS WHAT!!... within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was
shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In
my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made
a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's
still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just
over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth
$6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!!
Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works....also,
make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the
information off of it as you need it. STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper
and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR
MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6
pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent
thievery. Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them.
You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating
the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are
doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6
envelopes to the following addresses:
#1) Grant
P.O.Box 703394
New Smyrna Beach, FL 32170 USA
#2) MIKE ELEFANT
502 N. FRANCES ST. 510E
MADISON WI 53703 USA
#3) Gerry
P.O. Box 854
Pomona, NJ 08240 USA
#4) Hope
112 E. Madison St.
Paulsboro, NJ 08066 USA
#5)Quishia
P.O. Box 174
Clarksboro, NJ 08020-0174 USA
#6) Alex
P.O. Box 1
Russia, Moscow 117630
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on
the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article
as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least
200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is
200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make! ---
DIRECTIONS-----HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS------------ Step 1) You do not need
to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your cursor
at the beginning of this letter and drag your cursor to the bottom of this
document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire
letter into the computers memory. Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and
place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select
'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can
add your name to the list. Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt
file. If you want to do your postings in different sittings, you'll always
have this file to go back to. Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and
try searching for various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat
sites, discussions.) Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this
article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and
selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the
header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a
particular group, click the post message button. You're done with your first
one!
Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different
newsgroupes and post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about
30 seconds for each newsgroup!
**REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin reciving
money from around the world within days! You may eventually wany to rent a
P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to
stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as the postman will
deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.**
Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very
low example). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now,
each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings,
each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original
5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts
with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional
$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my
name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional
$626.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a
MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies,
that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this
message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200
newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With a original investment of
only $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take
the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on
the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The
thing to remember is, do you realize that thousands of people all over the
world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday, JUST
LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works?? I
think so... People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no one
sends you the money? So what! What are the chances of that happening when
there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the
internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates
are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those
joining the actual internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this
will work.

What distribution? Did you recompile the kernel? Masqing ICMP (ping,
traceroute etc.) is an option under IP Masq when the kernel is
built. If you don't select it regular TCP/UDP stuff will masq ok and
ICMP will stop at the firewall.

I also had to SUID the "chat" executable. On my machine,
both executables are in /etc/ppp, maybe because when I
first set up, I got a package from my ISP which probably
put them there. (In other words, you might do a
"which chat pppd" as a user to find out where to fix.)

I'm still on the 2.0 trial. We only have about 4 megs left
before it blocks us out. Will probably be registering it Monday
or Tuesday. I posted to pg, you may check it out. At this point
I think it's safe to assume the path to the resolver
(192.168.0.1) isn't set up right. I read someplace Linux checks
the Default Gateway last (even though our gateway is working) so
maybe something within Linux is taking precedence over our DNS
setting?!??

Of course... I'm sure we will be on the net within a few days.

A list of supported cards can be found in the ethernet HOWTO. Your
D-Link is not metioned in the list of D-Link cards, but that doesn't
mean it will not work ( my brand of card is not even listed but it works
in NE2000 compatible mode ). If it is plug and pray, that could cause
problems. Is it being probed for at boot time ? If not, you likely do
not ethernet card support compiled in. If it is being probed for and not
found, likely some IRQ/DMA problem with another device. if it is being
found but not working, likely the wrong driver has been selected.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I need your help, please: I connect to the net through PPP and would
like
to use my ISP as smart
relay host. I run sendmail 8.9.3 on linux slackware 3.6. I DO NOT
have the
same user name locally
as I have at my ISP. I have modified my sendmail.cf as follows:
# who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading)
DMmyISP.net
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSsmtp.myISP.net
When I run 'sendmail -q' sendmail fails and I get an e-mail titled
"Mail
Delivery S (48) Returned Mail:
Data format error" which states "501 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>...
Sender
domain must exist."
(where "rperri" is my local user name and "swift" is the name for my
machine.)
Obviously swift.myISP.net (myISP.net stands for my real ISP's name) is
not
considered a valid domain.
Besides, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not my e-mail (my email address
being
[EMAIL PROTECTED])
What can I do to get things right and be perceived as an existing
sender
domain? Please help me
out, I have spent the last couple of days reading newsgroup postings,
sendmail docs and the PPP
Howto's... but to no avail, and the frustration is building up : )
My /etc/resolv.conf file: domain myISP.net
search myISP.net

It would cost us over �10,000 pounds to upgrade the HP9000 hard disks and

linux boxes over the 100BaseT network.
Our primary data is UniData database files. A linux box with Ultra2 drives
and controller can be purchased for under �2000 with increased storage
space.
The data would be shared between the boxes using an NFS link.
Questions I Have
1) What would the performance increase be like if I were to go for this
method, considering our current local HP drives are rated at 20Mbs.
2) Where would the primary bottleneck be.
3) As the network is switched, would there be a degredation in network
performance.
Any tips or information would be most appreciated.

By any chance are you using the DHCP feature on Sygate ? I.E. - is Sygate
DHCP providing the IP numbers for your internal network ? If so, it may be
that Sygate is not providing NAT function to the Linux box (?)
Just a thought. To clarify my set up.... I use a product similar to Sygate,
and have my "gateway" on the linux box pointing to the internal ethernet
address on the "NAT" (windows) box. On the Linux box, I set DNS entries to
ISP's DNS servers. I do not have the Linux box set up to get an IP address
through DHCP (from windows box).
The above works for me.

This may not be your problem, but I'm having a similar problem....what kind of
a cable modem are you using. I recently switched from MediaOne to RCN, both of
which use DHCP. The difference is that media one uses a "real" DHCP server
somewhere while for RCN the DHCP server is the cable modem. My Linux system
seems unable to get a DHCP response from the cable modem (a Hybrid N231 I
think) while my Windows machines have no problem. If I swap the Mediaone modem
back in, everything works fine again (from the Linux system). I solved the
problem by not using DHCP on the Linux box. The way RCN has the system set up,
the addresses do not change. The modem is your gateway and the DHCP server.
The address it assigns you is one more than its address....at some point maybe
I'll actually figure out why Linux can't get an address from the modem...
