if this is true...explain this one to me. if you follow steps 1-7,
step 8 is garenteed to happen every time with every computer I've
tried it on. ( seems that the y2k patch for nt makes it compleately
unusable now instead of makeing you wait for 1/1/00 you can skip step
8 only if you install sp3 instead of sp4 but the moment sp4 is
installed, CRASH)

2 clean hd
3 nt server fresh install as primary domain controler
4 get on the net and download and apply nt serive pack 4 y2k
5 download and install mpri386 (lan to ras routeing package)
6 restart computer
7 connect to the internet
8 core dumps system restarts.
nothing not listed here was done to the system

same thing.

Subject: bad response times although 95% idle
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 1999 17:24:28 +0200
Hi newsgroup,
I'm running an Apache 1.3.4. server on a dedicated Linux box. The Apache
server-status shows about five child processes running, and the system
is 95% idle.
Anyway, I got bad respones times for WWW access and terribly slow telnet
sessions.
I did a "netstat -ave", and found a couple of sockets for the running
webserver ("user apache"). But, along with that, about 40 or 50 sockets
popped up showing "user root", but seem to be WWW connections. Most of
them have the "state TIME_WAIT".
Now, I'm curious wheter that might be related with my performance
problems, or however, where do/might these sockets come from?
Best regards,
Matthias

Why don't you do an NFS CDROM install? Mount the CD on the machine you are
installing from (add to /etc/exports file, restart nfs). As long as you have
a network connection between the two boxes this should work.

Yeah, I haven't done this for a year or so, so this is from (a very bad) memory!
I tore my hair out over this problem, until forcing it to different IRQ. I think I
stuck it down on 4 or 5, but it's very picky about what it
will use.
I do seem to remember 14 as the correct card ID, but try *not* compiling the rest of
the drivers you've got enabled below - it might
possibly confuse things.
Good luck!

Although this isn't the forum for tech support, you missed a step in your
procedure.
You installed the mpri386 after applying SP4. This was a bad idea. SP4 has
fixes for these features and making changes to the networking components
without reapplying the service pack will usually cause problems (including
blue screens)
My argument still stands - a PROPERLY configured NT box will not blue screen

Subject: Netscape bookmarks - sharing with Win95
Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1999 17:02:20 GMT
I have a dual boot setup of win95 and linux. I have tried
unsuccessfully to use a symbolic link on from the win95 bookmark.htm
file to linux and would like comments on where I am going wrong.
While in my ~/.netscape directory I gave the following command:
ln -s "/mnt/win95/Program Files/Netscape/oacheson/bookmark.htm"
which sets up a symlink. If I view the sym link file, I see the
contents of the file. I am able to modify the file with vi and the
changes are saved in the win95 file.
When I load netscape (communicator 4.5) it too sees the win95
bookmarks, but things go wrong if I change the bookmark file (add or
modify bookmarks). When I close netscape, it writes a "real" file
where the sym link used to be on the linux side. The win95 file is
unchanged.
I am the file owner on both the win95 and linux side. Also,
permissions are correct (rwx).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ollie

Hi
During installation you cannot configure the NIC. Therefore after complete
installation follow the procedure given below.
1. Execute the command "insmod tlan" at the prompt. 2. Execute the command
"netconf" at the prompt. 3. Configure the NIC by selecting the "Basic Host
Information option" and entering the IP Address, Netmask, Net device as eth0
and Kernal as tlan. 4. Select the "Gateway and routing" option from main menu
and fill in the detail of Gateway address and without fail enable the Gateway
option. 5. Accept the changes and exit from utility. 6. If you are installing
Redhat Linux 5.0 or 5.1 add the line "insmod tlan" in
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network. 7. To confirm about the configuration execute the
command "ifconfig -a" which will display the details of your NIC configured.

Subject: Linux box on two networks
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 1999 16:43:46 +0100
I have a removeable hard drive and want to configure Linux on this drive
so I can operate it on two machines. Fortunately these machines have
fairly similar hardware and the same type of network card.
I'd like suggestions on how to configure networking so I get this drive
to operate on two different IP networks ? I know the fixed IP address to
use on both networks.
Ideas I've thought of are:
use of DHCP - can do this at home but not at work [no DHCP server].
aliasing the Ethernet connection. eth0:0 and eth0:1 ??
Anyone offer any advice on the best way of doing this, preferably if
you've done it before. If it is a case of RTFM please advise on the
correct FM to read!

Thank you for the input. I temporarily created 192.168.1.1 to better understand.
My strange configuration was only temporary. I now have proof that both nics work
under Linux, so I can move on to actually using them efficiently.
