This helped. /var/log/messages showed a problem exec'ing
/usr/sbin/tcpd and it turns out the file was missing. I copied tcpd
from my other machine and now telnet works.
Since telnet definitely worked in the past this still leaves the
question of whether telnet worked without tcpd in the past and then
suddenly started requiring it or if telnet always needed tcpd and tcpd
spontaneously self deleted.

I believe (both due to the above message, and my memory of previous
posts to the newsgroup regarding ne.o) that 8390.o need be installed
before ne.o. Try using depmod and modprobe instead -- modprobe will
load the correct modules, in order, and will then unload 8390.o when
you're done with ne.o.

Subject: Help with x-isp
Date: 2 Jan 1999 16:34:29 GMT
I am running Caldera 1.3 and using x-isp. I like it better than kppp. I
am able to log on with x-isp as root. However, I want to let others use
my machine, but don't want to have to su to log them on. I've set all
the proper permissions for modem, xisp, pppd, etc. Whenver I launch and
start xisp under a guest account, I get a message that pppd returned an
error of 1. I've read the man page for pppd and can't find out what this
is telling me. Can anyone tell me what this means, and more importantly,
help me to get isp to work under non root accounts? Thanks....

Subject: Apache 1.3.3 w/ssl user directory problems in SECURE RH5.2
Date: Sat, 02 Jan 1999 11:26:25 -0500
The main site can be hit fine (ex: site.com/) however the user
directories can not (ex: site.com/~user).
Every time I try to go to the users web pages I get a forbidden error.
It says that I don't have permissiions to look at that file. I have
another 5.2 machine that is not the SSL verion and everything seems to
run fine. Whhat is the problem here?
I have not generated a cirtificate yet or anything like that on the
secure server. The user files are in /home/user/public_html as normal
but I can still only see the main site and not the /~user-space. I tried
to access the userspace with a trailing slash/ too and no luck. Am I
missing something in one of the conf files? I have my DNS name as the
ServerName as usual. What's up here?
Please email me directly.
Thanks for any replies

I have pretty much been told and have seen in my experience that the actual
susteained data transfer rate
of a nic is about 1/10 of the posted speen, so 10 Mb is actually about 1Mb and 100Mb
is about 10Mb.
That is a general rule I know of for Ethernet. You start talking ATM, FDDI it is
usually pretty close to the actual posted speed.

Well, your going to have to turn IP forwarding on in your kernel and then
recompile and install it. Then you will need to make the following route
entries.
192.168.0.x/24 192.168.1.y/24
| |
------- | | -------
| | x=2 v v y=2 | |
| B |::::::: | :::::::| D |
| | eth0 : | : eth0 | |
------- : ------- | : -------
: x=1 | | y=1 v :
:::::::| A |::::::::
: eth0 | | eth1 :
------- : ------- : -------
| | eth0 : : eth0 | |
| C |::::::: :::::::| E |
| | x=3 y=3 | |
------- -------
Static routes on A, interfaces eth0 and eth1:
============================================
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Window Use Iface
192.168.0.1 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 124 eth0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 2 eth1
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 5 lo
default 192.168.0.1 * UG 0 0 1970 eth0
Notice that all traffic destined for 192.168.1.0/24 is heading out your
eth1 port, while all other traffic heads out the default eth0 port.
You can setup your loopback interface as follows:
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
/sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0
You can setup your eth0 interface as follows:
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 \
broadcast 192.168.0.255 \
netmask 255.255.255.0 \
up
/sbin/route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
/sbin/route add default gw 192.168.0.1 metric 0
You can setup your eth1 interface as follows:
/sbin/ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 \
broadcast 192.168.1.255 \
netmask 255.255.255.0 \
up
/sbin/route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

Behave, learn some manners and most importantly grow up. With this kind of
attitude few people are likely to "waste" their time helping a "pissed-off"
teenager like yourself. You, like most "pissed-off" "lamers" are of no use
to Linux and never will be since you lack skills, both social and
technical, and you seem to feel like the rest of Linux'ers owe you something.
As a sign of good spirit take this advice; download the RH stuff to your hd
and then install from the hard drive. If you are uncapabble of doing so then
order a cd from CheapBytes and leave everyone here alone. Actually if you
already have problems (before install) you should quit now. I don't want to
hear you infentile whining later.

Date: Sat, 2 Jan 1999 11:57:08 -0500
Samba works for me, somewhat. I can view, mount, and write to NT shares
using it, but no NT machines can write to my Linux box. I am having
problems getting all of my login requests to go through our NT PDC. If you
have any suggestions for that, please send them my way.
As for your problems, I'll post a copy of my smb.conf file. And to mount
the partitions, I use a line similar to:
smbmount //Nt-workstation/c /ntwc -U blah -P blah -I blah.blah.blah.blah
where //Nt-workstation/c is the computer and service I want to use, /ntwc is
the mounting point on my computer, -U is username, -P is password
(authenticated by PDC) and -I is the IP address of the computer in question.
Make sure you have smb installed into your kernel.
If you have anymore questions, let me know.

I have done that, the IPX still doesn't work, I got bordermanager Enterprise
on my netware server and it seems to be helping the speed a lot now, but
still the IPX is not working. Oh well, do you have IPX running on your
linux? If so any good docs to help troubleshoot mine?
Thanks for the response.

Actually, use the newer IP Chains as your packet filter and either TIS or
SOCKS as your proxy server.
IP Chains: http://www.rustcorp.com/linux/ipchains/
TIS......: http://www.tis.com/prodserv/fwtk/readme.html
SOCKS....: http://www.socks.nec.com/

For a good packet filter try IP Chains:
http://www.rustcorp.com/linux/ipchains/
For a proxy filter, try either TIS fwtk or SOCKS:

For an interesting alternative, try Fireplug:

Enjoy! :-)

I don't need it and want to minimize hack attacks, I also only have 1 account
(root). Am using RH 5.1, should this be secure?

This is a simple route problem. Read the route man page and setup your
routes. Easy. :)
