My RedHat 5.2 linux box periodically popup message like
"transmit timed out, status 0050 command 0000." and sometimes
the network connection dropped and I need to reboot the system to resume
the connection. The network card is Intel EtherExpress 10/100 PCI.
Anyone has any idea what's wrong?

If you speak with HP they may be able to send you an updated firmware
for a reasonable price. We hat to do this for a few clients. I cant

Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 18:59:43 -0400
My company is planning to replace the NT file server with Linux file server.
I had installed Redhat5.2 (kernel 2.0.36) and Samba 2.0 and Netatalk 1.4b.
Everything works well.
The problems is that both PC client and Mac client can access the same
source
save file even one client has lock it, one client does not respect the lock
applied
by the other client, and the other client accually can modify and remove the
same file.
NT file server has no such problem, it there any way to get around of this ?
If this
problem can not be solved, I can not use Linux as my company's file server.
Thanks.

Hi.
I use an external ISDN terminal adapter connected to one of the serial

I've not been able to get it to work, though. Guess I've grown too used to
Win plug-play.
I run RH 5.2 and KDE. Started kppp and tried to configure. Bewildered!
Got some info from TA-supplier, said to enter an AT-string (something like
ATS118.3= etc.)
Lost me there, I'm affraid. When connecting, got print in log window (looks
fine to a newbie like me) and after a few seconds got a message: ppp deamon
died unexpectedly.
What to do???

Hi,
I've got a problem concerning ISDN-routing (as i think) here.
I'm running on Suse60, Kernel 2.2.5. Kernel support for the ISDN-card is
all right. I can identify incoming calls load and unload the modules,
etc... But everytime i try to start a connection, the up-scripts produce
the same error output. I added the (yast-) script-output and my
/etc/route.conf below. Maybe someone knows what was wrong... Tehre are
(ablolutely) no entries concerning this in /var/log/messages.
thank you and enjoy your weekend!

Subject: How do I find out why my IP aliases don't work
Date: 15 Apr 1999 23:54:09 GMT
I'm trying to set up a firewall. We have our private network (192.168.87.0).
Our ISP assigned us default IP 193.138.44.23 (net 193.138.44.16) and the router
is on 193.138.44.17. And they said that the net 193.138.44.64/255.255.255.240
will be routed to 193.138.44.23. So I'm trying to test this and I've set some
aliases from 193.138.44.64 net to eth0.
I can get out fine through def gw and from outside back as well to default ip
(.23), but i can't reach any of the aliases.
traceroute just keeps bouncing back from the router.
I've tried to make an alias on another IP from the same net as default IP and
got response from it. It seems to me as if ..64 net ips isn't routed to ip
.23. How can I be sure who's doing it wrong?
Btw, the procedure went briefly like:
ifconfig eth0 [ip] netm [nm] bcast [bc]
ifconfig eth0:0 [ip2]
route add -net ..16 #(original IP net)
route add default gw ..17
route add -net ..64 netmask ..240 dev eth0:0 #the should-be routed net
and my netstat -r says
Kernel IP routing table

X-clients come in many flavours and are the programs which run
on compute hosts on behalf of user requests (the terminology is
"backwards" from "usual" -- The use sits in front of the "server"
and "client" programs run on server nodes to generate X graphics
traffic). A good example of an X client is "xterm".
> What is the x-server on linux called and how it is used?
The X server in Linux is _usually_ (but not always) the XFree86
server, of which there are several depending on what graphics card
yo have installed in your machine. Typically, it's linked to
/usr/bin/X11/X.

There are _no_ X clients (that I'm aware of) which run under any
of the MS OSes. There are servers available for MS Windows
boxes, some of which are free, which allow the PC to function as an
X terminal.
> Where can one get pc x emulations?
Search the web. There are at least two server packages which will
allow your PC to call up X displays. At least one of those is available
for download although the name, and URL, escape me at the moment.

printerqueues with yast ,restarted the lpd - Daemon and it works !!!!

Alright. I dug up my ReadyLink disk, SYSed it on a windows machine and
booted my Linux comp with it. I ran EASYSET in UTILITIES, and got the IO
port and IRQ (280h and 10, the defaults I think, cause I haven't changed
them). Now, I already installed linux (red hat 5.2) on the machine, and /dev
does not contain a eth0. Where do I stick these numbers and create eth0? I
used eth0 as the adapter in my settings, and on boot it says its not a valid
device. Beware, I didn't set up a network card during installation. Help!

In various companies, I've used colours, fish, birds, animals, element
names, planets, constellations, stars, US presidents and so on.
That way, in a large corporate environment, each subnet has it's own
naming convention, and, for the humour impaired (i.e. managers),
there's also an alias with a rational, and hence pretty boring name
too.
