Subject: DNS Problem Please HELP
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 11:12:57 GMT
Hi,
Ive got RedHat 5.0 Linux set up as my Primary DNS server and Mail server
too. The secondary Name server is located at my ISP connected via Lease line.
The setup was workin fine till last week when the users started gettin a very
slow telnet and mail response from this server. After tracing it found that
there was some problem with the Primary name server as all the name resolution
was done by Secondary server located at my ISP. Only those clients
who had an entry in the /etc/hosts file seems to be connecting well.
When I do a nslookup, I get :
"Can't find server name for address 'my ip address': No information"
default server: 'My isp's domain name'
Ive also checked the scripts. But everything seems
fine.Can anybody figure out the problem and respond . Any help is highly
appreciated.
Thanks

...but in answer to the question you *actually* asked (rather than the one
you probably *meant*, which Luca just answered :), installing two network
cards *can* increase performance in some situations. If you are running two
different network-intensive processes (such as, say an NFS client and an HTTP
server) it might boost performance two bind each to a different interface.
This is presumably due to different ways of utilizing network buffering space
and interrupts from the device(s). I suspect that it may also increase
performance with a dual-processor machine (which will usually perform
*better* in single-processor mode with regards to networking on one device),
but I don't know enough about how SMP works to say that for sure.
Does anyone know enough about how device communication works down on the
assembly level (where SMP does its magic) to field that question? It's my
understanding that SMP works by alternating processors between every
instruction (the "S" as in "Symmetric" in SMP), and that device I/O on a
single network card doesn't allow itself to be "split" in this way (meaning
only one processor, getting half the clock cycles, is able to talk to the
card). Is this correct, and would it be possible (either by chance or
intention) to have each processor handle I/O to one of two cards?

You probably can't measure the difference on a 10MB LAN, but compiling into
the kernel
should perform better.

This is not really a comparision from which any useful conclusions can
be drawn. I wish they had started with a single processor x86 and then
worked up. They should have made it clear how they set the system up
for multiple processors as this is a known problem with Linux 2.0.x that
was supposedly resolved in Linux 2.2.x. I do not think that we have
enough information here to make any informed conclusions.

I'm not sure this will work. Take a look at the ipportfw patch. It
requires the IP address of the outside interface when setting up the
portfw. I think you can setup two different destinations based on
which IP address it came in on.

Start the VNC server up as:

And use the URL:

Depends on the shell. For /bin/tcsh, you can alter /etc/csh.cshrc.
For /bin/sh or /bin/bash, look for /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc and
Read The Fine Manuals.

That's not necessary if you're using the original 2.0.36 kernel from SuSE.
If you have installed the PCMCIA utilities from your SuSE-cd's, you just
have to fill in your chipset (Intel or TI mostly) in Yast, and pcmcia
service will be started at boot-up.

Have had the same problem. Seems to be related to the lpr package.
Somewhere i found the same problem described but i do not know where.
The solution is to use another printer package. plp works fine for me,

Subject: Help with 3C905-TX
Hi,
I am trying to get my 3com 3C905-TX (Gateway 2000 edition) to function
correctly under RedHat 5.2 with kernel 2.0.32. It is a 10/100 card. I
am trying to connect my computer to RoadRunner cable service.
When I first booted Linux, I could see that the card was detected and
infact received an IP address from RoadRunner's DHCP server. I was not
required to login to the DHCP server, which I usually need to do. I was
able to access all parts of the RR network that I usually do. After
shutting down and restarting, I was unable to access RoadRunner. I
obtained and compiled a proggy that allows me to login to RR's DHCP
server and it is working correctly.
The card however, is no longer working correctly. While it is still
recognized when I load Linux (it is recognized as a 3C905b (?) 100Mb
card - I'm at work) it doesn;t work under the CLI or X. When I run
netconfig I can see eth0, but no IP is assigned even when it's status is
active. ifconfig only shows the local (lo) info, nothing ever appears
for eth0.
I am wondering if I am having an issue with the 100Mb detection of the
card. The RoadRunner cable modem and the hub I have it connected to are
both 10Mb. Is there someway I can tell Linux to see the NIC as a 10Mb
card? Is this even a reasonable solution to my problem?
I appreciate any help. While the thought of going back to Win9x is
distasteful, even less appetizing is the thought of using a POTS
connection to the Internet.

You don't want the default route to be your local net, even when your not
connected via ppp.
You only want a route to your local net. i.e.
route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 device net0
Your default route should be 0.0.0.0, so that when you make your ppp
connection it can take
over that route.

Hi
to see what ports are open on your linux machine try at a shell
netstat -t -n -a |grep LISTEN
you can also use tcpdump to debug things
