Buy any $25 NIC, boot the system with a DOS boot floppy, and use the
enclosed program to disable PnP. Voila, done

Subject: RedHat 5.2 NFS read-write problems
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 14:53:56 -0500
I have recently installed RedHat 5.2 and I'm having NFS read-write
problems. In my /etc/exports file I have:
/home (rw,map_static=/etc/nfs/aix.map)
In my /etc/hosts.allow file I have:
rpc.mountd: ALL
RedHat is able to NFS export the filesystem okay:
Apr 14 12:37:19 act5 mountd[1383]: /home/gk4 has been mounted by
9.3.230.209
Apr 14 12:42:08 act5 mountd[1447]: exports file has anon entries, but
host
Apr 14 12:42:08 act5 mountd[1447]: has non-private IP address
9.3.230.214!
Apr 14 12:42:08 act5 nfsd[1456]: exports file has anon entries, but host
Apr 14 12:42:08 act5 nfsd[1456]: has non-private IP address 9.3.230.214!
Apr 14 12:42:23 act5 mountd[1447]: NFS mount of /home/gk4 attempted from
9.3.230.209
AIX 4.3.1 is able to NFS mount from RedHat 5.2 fine and the uid/gid seem
to get mapped okay; however, I am unable to create file in my home
account unless the directory is 777. But when I create files they are
created with some really big uid/gid (ie., 65000). NFS does not seem to
know who I am, yet the uid/gid on the files seem okay.
Any clues?
George

need anyway.

Add the pppd option debug and look for ppp negotiation messages in
/var/log/debug or whatever file RH uses for debug level messages.

Ever considered that they are shutting you down for a REASON, people that
are abusing the policies of their ISP are really annoying. But you wont fool
them with any mere ICMP activity, set up a script to run a bogus telnet
session every X hours or soemthing.

Subject: automating the connection process
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 16:07:56 -0400
i've been trying to automate my internet connection process, but it just
won't work, everything's fine if i connect to internet manually. i think
the problem is that after the isp varifies my password it sends a menu
roughly like:
make a choice:
====================================
1. info
2. make a slip connection
3. make a ppp connection
4. disconnect
now if i was connecting manually i would press 3 and the isp will send the
gibberish back and i would go on w/ the rest of the steps, but how do i
incorporate this menu into a expect-send pair inside the chat script...
i am a newbie so please be gentle...
