Negotiations collapse at this point, the NT has nothing else to say.
The NT has requested the IP address 171.253.1.200 for itself and pppd
has agreed. But pppd doesn't have an IP address for itself and this
eventually causes pppd to shutdown the negotiations.
The only apparent hitch is that the NT has requested MPPC, a proprietary
Microsoft compression, and pppd rejected it. Although this should not
be a problem it's possible that the NT PPP implementation is not as
good as it should be. I'd try the pppd option "noccp" to prevent any
CCP negotiation since the NT and pppd don't have any common compression
algorithms anyway.

Your ISP wish chap or pap authentification and the local pppd rejects
the request.
possible causes ar:
no "name <loginname>" in /etc/ppp/options or on the comandline of pppd.
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets is worldreadable.
For the pap lines is the "user ..." command necessary but chap is the
better choice.

Subject: Firewall 64 Ip's
Date: Wed, 07 Apr 1999 12:52:50 +0200
Hello
We have a small IP Range which is 64 Ip' wide, which is absoulty
sufficent at the time. Connection to the Internet is realized with a
small cisco router and dial line (ISDN) . We would like to set up a
linux box as firewall, without wasting to many of these ip's. (Like
splitting into two 32 Ip Parts for DMZ and protected net).
I tried a private minature network (DMZ) between the router and the
linux box. Everything worked fine for all computers, besides the linux
box itself, which couldn't get connection to the internet. This is
because in this szenario, the outer leg of the box has a private ip,
which is not routed at all there.
So - can I (and if how) get the box to use it's (inner) ip for
everything as source ip. (like dns queries etc.) ... masquerade itself
on the outgoing packets?
If the private DMZ thought, is not an option at all... any suggestions
welcome.
Thanks

Dear all,
If I use IP address to connect with ,Redhat 5.2 will try to find
domainname of this ip.
So if this LAN without any DNS ,it need a long time to make connection.
I can add this IP in /etc/hosts or comment DNS in /etc/resolv.conf to
resolve this problem but I think it is not a good method.
Please give me a advise or tell me why redhat do this. Thanks

).

Most ISPs will work OK with Linux (but are unlikely to offer support).
If Linux won't work with your ISP, change ISPs. :)

Hmm, the biggest caution is with the hard disk. Be _very_ careful with
fdisk or Disk Druid, otherwise you may wind up trashing Windows. Also,
when prompted to make a rescue disk, heed the advice, you never know
when it'll get you out of trouble. :-)
mt> 4.) I'm using some USB devices, does linux support this?
mt> Will I be having problem with this device?
USB is currently not supported in the Intel versions of Linux. I
believe this is being worked on.
mt> Do I need special drivers for my devices?
mt> (well, cd rom and other standard stuff?)
Generally, no, the default kernel has modules for common hardware.
mt> 5.) Should I actually install linux from win or dos?
No, boot from the CD or installation floppy.
mt> :) weird question huh? but i dunno the answer.
mt> 6.) where exactly does linux better than win?
After you complete the installation, you be the judge. :-)
Final advice. RTFM. :-) Linux documentation is supplied on the CD, and
is generally of very high quality. Red Hat also supplies an electronic
copy of its installation manual on CD, which you should read before
starting (of course, if you purchased the official version, read the
printed manual).

Is it possible to make a 286 boot DOS from a LINUX-server?
With Novell i have to place a boot-image on the server, and the client

Is it possible to do this with bare linux, or maybe using a netware

Could someone repost the article on how they got the SOHOware Auto
10/100 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter to work under Windows 98? I haven't
been able to get it to work under Linux either but I'll worry about that
later.
On Windows 98, I've got the card installed but I can't ping another PC.
I ping'ed to a router and see that the packets got there (based on the
LEDs) but I get a "Response timed out". The diagnostics in the
supplied disk's a:\diag\ndcdiag.exe fails on every test except the EPROM
test. I've set up networking between many other computers (but never
with this card) so I don't know if I'm missing something obvious.
Thanks,

You can get a good 4 port 10Mbit hub (say a Netgear) for less than $38.00 at

Subject: setting up apache
Date: Wed, 7 Apr 1999 11:49:26 -0500
I'm running redhat 5.2. I'm trying to get apache to run as a webserver on
a machine, but only for my machine (I need to develop servlets, and it
would be nice to be able to work from home without having to work over a
slow dial-up connection--I apologize if this is a lame post for a
newsgroup devoted to "real" networking). At any rate, I know the httpd
daemon is running, the ServerName in httpd.conf is localhost, and in
/etc/hosts the only line is 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain.
I've used the defaults in all of the apache conf files.
So everything should be fine, but it isn't. When I try to point
netscape to http://localhost, it complains, but I think that is
because it is trying to find keyword.netscape.com to fill in the rest
of the hostname. But it never tries to resolve the hostname by
looking in /etc/hosts. I tried also to point lynx toward
http://localhost and it likewise complains that it can't find the
remote host.
Other info: ping on localhost and 127.0.0.1 returns -1, network
unreachable. So I think that, like I suggested above, it isn't
looking it /etc/hosts first, if at all, like it should be.
Any thoughts on files I might tinker with to fix this problem?
Thanks,
Albert

possibly the dns lookups are slowing the process, try 'netstat -rn' and
see how if this speeds this up....
