please cc to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have RH4.2 and two computers. One has a tiny HD and a different
graphics card to the other (server) and I probably won't be able to
install X on the smaller one.
Could you please tell me where to go in the mountains of READMEs and
HOWTOs to find out about installing linux on a tiny HD with the X server
elsewhere on the network.
Many Thanks,

I believe you have to say Y to ICMP masquerading under Networking options,
then recompile.

I am using RH 5.2 in an NT Environment and am mapping drives successfully. The
only differences between your command line 'smbmount' and mine is
1) I use the full name vs the IP address,
2) I include a "-Ddomain_name",
3) I use the "-C" to eliminate password case conversion.
Also, I'm assuming that your PDC is actually running the WINS service.(?)

Except you don't want to get in the habit of doing this; it was done for a

If you want to do something on the system as root and you're telnetting in,
log in as a normal user and "su -" to get a root shell.

Squid might be able to help in "accelerator" mode.
Another alternative is to use ipportfw to forward port 80 traffic from the
internet side of the firewall to the hidden HTTP server.
ipportfw might work for FTP as well.

Hi there!
This mail won't help you, too ... but i would like to state that all
that you have written is absolutely correct. Same setup & same
environment here (Linux, SGI, SUN, Windoze), but with SuSE 5.x and 6. I
have been describing the problems for a long time in this group (and
others).
To draw a conclusion: NFSD-service on Linux doesn't work reliable and I
would never use it in a production environment. That's what I experience
and have been told by official Linux-support! ... Multiprocessor
machines cause the most problems. I use a watchdog to restart the
nfsservers when they hang.
We have been running a separate little Linux-cluster for our students
with 7 machines and didn't experience those problems. Well ... seems the
SUN's or SGI's do the killing job. But we'll get rid of them in the next
years ;)

Date: Tue, 13 Apr 1999 06:24:33 GMT
when you get a dedicated connection you get a static IP address. With a
cable modem you are not guaranteed a static IP address. Anything "dedicated"
is also supposed to be more reliable. Cable modem providers do go down once
in a while. (I know, I have one). One day it was down for 6 hours. Another
day the connection was working but the DNS servers died... It doesn't happen
often but for a company that would result in immediate loss of money.
If you want to set up a web server for your home, then cable modem will work
great (I know, I have one: www.happypenguin.dhs.org). It is not suitable for
a company though, because the IP address can change (about once a month or
so) and the web site would be unaccessible until you update the DNS entry...

Did you try pinging the remote IP address of your connection?
(Can be read from route -n)
Try adding 'defaultroute' to you ppp configuration.
(In /etc/ppp/options or /etc/ppp/options.ttySX or in the ppp setup script
that begins with pppd)
Anyway, I fixed my problem.
I changed two things and now it works:
1, I changed they entry in /etc/resolv.conf form
search x.y.z to
domain x.y.z and
2, I added the route manually with the command
route add default gw 'ip.address.of.the.peer' ppp0 (or something very similar
that works)

I have the same problem. I can get ppp working but not if I run kppp.
I used RedHat's control-panel to configure ppp and then
usernetctl pppX up
will bring up a connection just fine. If I use kppp to bring up this connection
I get modem dialing and a long pause but no connection.

Yes dir permissions have something to do with it. Any user making a
connection and wanting to write needs to have write access to the dirs you
shared on the smb host machine. Same holds true for reading files too. If
your user does not have the permissions needed to satisfy the file settings
they will not be able to function
In your smb.conf uncomment the stanza for /tmp restart smb, and use that as
an example.
/tmp is already read-write to the world. You can use this to experiment.
Try writing to this share now and see.
One thing you have to remember is that you can set access levels via samba,
but Linux file permissions will rule each time. In the example below any
one can write to /tmp only as long as /tmp is 777 ( it is by default and
should be). If you were to chmod -R 755 /tmp only root (or the owner,again
default owner is root) could write to /tmp but the world could read.
Now be careful after you are finished if you do change the permissions on
/tmp to experiment remember to change it back to 777 when you are done.
There are some processes that may break if they cannot write to /tmp.
# This one is useful for people to share files

Howdy,
I'm trying to install Linux on an machine with what appears to be an
"Intel 8/16 Lan Adapter" (this is stamped on the card [ISA]).
I'm installing RedHat, and none of the obvious choices work.
Has anone else gotten this to work?
Thanks,

Subject: kppp (KDE 1.1) fails
Date: Tue, 13 Apr 1999 16:17:38 +0200
I've recently updated Caldera OpenLinux 1.3 to KDE 1.1 (from Caldera FTP
site)...
All works well, but as I try to connect to Internet, kppp shows me a window
reporting a message like this:
"Sorry, kppp helper process just died"
and suddenly quits.
I think my kppp's configuration is correct (it's the same of the kppp's
previous version): and the problem is not pppd (my connection script
that uses pppd works really well).
I've tried to find a solution in the documentation of kppp, but it wasn't
helpful...
Any suggestion? Will be appreciated also any indication to a complete
documentation of kppp...
Thanks in advance,
Daniele Zucchelli
