Can you explain how they would be getting a MAC address from my friends'
NIC-less pc?
A MAC address is not as good, in any event. NICs get changed mor often
than cpus (in most cases). IIRC MAC addresses can be changed, and there
have been cases of MAC addresses beinf reused?

I don't know which distribution you are using, but on mine (SuSE) the
loopback device gets setup in /etc/rc.d/boot by:
# ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 up
# route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 dev lo
It is after filesystem mounting & timezone and before setting hostname.
And make sure you have a line in /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost

Interesting is over 15 years of using modems, 300 baud to 56K modems
(hopefully a Cable or DSL modem in about a year or so), I have NEVER heard
that they have a MAC address? So what command or how do you get the MAC
address of a modem? Does this only apply to Mac modems or all modems? One
other question, why would a modem need a MAC address?

All that is needed to get to the dial up user is an address of the service
provider's modem that the user called in on!
This is obviously not unique to an individual.
The IP address he gets when he logs in is also out of a pool of addresses
and is also non-unique.

Has anybody gotten this to work properly? I can access my linux box via
NT and SAMBA if I turn off encrypted passwords in the registry and in
smb.conf. But if they are both on, I can't log in.
I did the cat /etc/passwd | mssmbpasswd.sh > /etc/smbpasswd and got a
smbpasswd file, but it doesn't seem to work.
I have my smb.conf pointed to /etc/smbpasswd but I can't seem to get it
to work.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I would like to get this to work so
that I can give some people remote access, but I would rather have
encrypted passwords.

It is reflecting what you send with the 8-th bit stripped. There's a

Someone tell my why this is such a big deal? Every unix box in
existance has a unique ID. It's the hostid. What's it for?
Licensing, mostly. Of course unix licensing is far more mature than
for windows. Heck, even a 486 can be made to cough up a hostid. Of
course, I don't know of any cases where that hostid get transmitted to
a vendor, but what's to stop it from happening?

Well, there's a command called "hostid", and it makes a function call to
"sethostid" and/or "gethostid". However, it is not required that they return
unique values. For example, my Linux box (Cyrix processor) returns a number
that converts back to my IP address. That IP address may vary from time to
time. Some Digital UNIX boxes I just tried all return 0 for hostid. Some Sun
boxes return unique (at least unique between the few I looked at) values, and
they are not related to the IP address. However, the Sun boxes do not
constitute "every unix box in existance[sic]".

Thanks for your feedback !
But I am really a Newbie in Linux, especially in Building Kernel(the 1st
time).
I am not sure what your exactly mean ?

I don't understand what is [ismod].
The NICs work perfectly before compile the kernel.
eth0 for NE2000(ISA) NIC connect to internet.
eth1 for 3Com 3c905(PCI) NIC connect in ethernet LAN.
I need to file /etc/conf.modules to run it before.
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0x300
alias eth1 3c59x

I understand that it is really a silly behaviour.
But I cannot get any ne.o and 3c59x.o for kernel 2.2.3 now.
I suppose it is embedded in the kernel image after it is compiled.
Anyway, is that any method to compile these 2 files for 2.2.3 other re-build
the kernel again ?
>p.s. does NE2000 uses 3c59 module??
No I copy both ne.o and 3c59x.o for kernel 2.0.36-0.7 to the new kernel.
Also, I am keeping the file /etc/conf.modules now.
Thank You !!!

Subject: pam_rhosts_auth problem...
Hi
I am rdisting to this new 5.2 Red Hat Intel box from a server on our
network:
on the server (I call the server, servername for this email) I get:
servername 5# rdist -m linus
linus: updating host linus
linus: LOCAL ERROR: Unexpected input from server: "Permission denied.".
linus: updating of linus finished
on the workstation, linus I get this in the messages log. I've read a
bit about pamd, but I haven't found the answer yet. I've been looking in
.rhosts, hosts.equiv, NIS, and groups files...
Mar 19 12:22:28 linus pam_rhosts_auth[624]: denied to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as root: access not allowed
Any light to shine??? I can rlogin into the machine from the server as
root...
Thanks,
Steve

There's this attitude that if you're not doing anything wrong, then you
shouldn't worry about lack of privacy. That's wrong; here are examples.
- Do you want potential thieves to know that you're going on vacation?
Do you want them to be able to find what alarm company you subscribe to,
if any?
- Do you want your competitor to know about the product you're developing,
or the employee you're thinking of hiring? In fact, executives who
fly private planes are now bitching about a public database that lets you
type in the number of a plane and retrieve its current flight path.
- Are you so sure that you're innocent? Here's what local police often
do to trap men in alleged rape cases. The woman says it was rape; the man
says it was consensual. The police are quite sympathetic to the man, and
ask him to describe what actually happened, in great detail. Then they
charge him with sodomy in addition to rape. Since he admitted to sodomy,
which is often still illegal but few people know that, he hasn't a chance,
even if the sex was consensual.

Subject: Modem not responding !
Date: 19 Mar 1999 16:48:33 GMT
Hi,
I've just installed the RedHat 5.2 (kernel 2.0.36). My modem is a USR
56K professional message modem (external modem). I still have a winmodem
that I don't use anymore inside my computer.
Under Windows 95, my modem is connected on COM 1 (port 03F8, irq 4).
Therefore in control-panel I set my modem to /dev/cua0 (I've also tried
/dev/ttyS0).
Reading the Serial-HOWTO, I try to talk to my modem with kermit but I
get no answers at all (not even a beep !).
My mouse is an Intellimouse connected on psaux (PS/2), thus there
shouldn't be a conflict between my modem and my mouse.
In /var/log/dmesg I have :
Serial driver version 4.13 with no serial options enabled
PS/2 auxiliary pointing device detected -- driver installed.
Shouldn't I have some lines about my serial ports ?
When typing setserial -g /dev/cua0 I get :
/dev/cua0, UART: unknown, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
Is it normal to get an unknown UART ? I set UART to 16550A but it didn't
change anything.
Is it possible that the winmodem still inside my computer hides in some
way the other modem ?
Any ideas ?
Laurent

Lying, old man! That modem is preconfigured to use COM2, IRQ3!

This is not the problem. I am running portmap on the clients as well.
