Hi Sean,
I got this note recently from Dennis Markwith; although it
applies to Linux 2.2 (hence the ipchains commands), a similar logic
would apply for 2.0 and ipfwadm:

If you're only pumping packets, you can actually halt the Linux box.
Note that some modern shutdowns default to shutting down interfaces to
avoid this behaviour.

I'm running tcpdump [options] -r file. It's capturing exactly what I
want to the file. I want to stop tcpdump at let's say midnight so I can
copy the file and start a new one. I don't see anyway to automatically
stop and restart tcpdump other than using the -c [count] option (no

Aha...
If there really is no ifconfig then you didn't install any networking
(and I can't see a networking-less linux being much use for anything).
More likely it's just not in your path. Try /sbin/ifconfig.

The smbclient program can talk to Win95's print queue
There's a document on printing to Windows95; look for

First try to ping the loopback address (127.0.0.1) on both machines to
ensure TCP/IP is installed properly.
If that works, then I would suspect the cable. I recently had a problem on
my network with a loose connection at the hub but the link lights were on in
spite of the poor connection.

Hi Don,
Well, I was concerned about this so I pulled the NIC from my
linux box at work and tried that, no luck. Also, I was able to
INSTALL linux over the DSL connection, but I'm unable to get the DHCP
to fire up after linux is up and running.
I'm REALLY confused. How can it work to install, but not for standard
DHCP service?
Thanks for the response though.
Carl
P.S. My phone company didn't supply the NIC. They just said "Ethernet
card required".

I have Rh5.2 recently installed on a box and SCO Unix networked to it with
10Base2 BNC direct thinnet. I have not changed the original network
configuration from the Rh5.2 installed defaults.
I can ping between both machines successfully, and I can telnet and ftp to
the Unix box from Linux. When I try to telnet from Unix to Linux, I get a
message that I am connected, but no login. Similarly, if I ftp from a Win95
box (also in the LAN) or Unix, I do not make a connection.
I checked hosts.allow and hosts.deny, both were blank. I added the line ALL
: 132.147.160.1 (my Unix IP) to hosts allow and added the line ALL :
PARANOID : rfc931 to hosts deny, then rebooted. This did not change my
results.
Is there a configuration file somewhere that allows Linux to accept telnet
and ftp requests?
Thank you for your help.

Hi guys... hope you can provide me with an answer....
I've been running linux for a few years now, so I'm not a newbie. Now
I've actually got my bosses to let me set up a linux box in house to see
what we cn do with it. We are trying to set it up to print to a xerox
plotter over the network, and I can't get it to work. It keeps saying
the plotter is offline. I can ping it, telnet to it, etc. But I can't
print to it. It's IP is 192.168.0.21. Could someone please tell me
what's wrong with my printcap that it doesn't work?
lp:\
:rm=xerox:\
:rp=xerox:\
:sd:/var/spool/lpd/lp0:\

I have the printer name defined in hosts, and it does resolve correctly as
I can ping it by it's name. Thanks!

This usually happens when you don't want to set up a default route
during install and leave the field blank. This will result in the
system trying to add a default route to 0.0.0.0 through eth0 and this
gives the above message.
To fix remove the lines with GATEWAYDEV and GATEWAY from
/etc/sysconfig/network.

If your server is running Bindery Emulation, you can still login if your user
object exists in one of the contexts set for Bindery Emulation (this can be
seen either in the AUTOEXEC.NCF of the server or by typing CONFIG at the
server console prompt).
The package you need is ncpfs, which allows you to make a bindery connection
to a Novell server. There is also an NDS client available from Caldera, but
I've never used it and don't know if it can be freely downloaded and/or used
on Red Hat.

Use MRTG, it's written in Perl and generates web pages that can track port
traffic, cpu utilization, or any other snmp oid you wish to graph. Sorry, it
won't "limit bandwidth".

I think you want Preserve Case = yes and Ignore Case = yes in your smb.conf
file.
I'm pretty sure that's the default anyway.... unless you were mucking with
things, it should just work.

If you're using the smbmount from the new Samba (and you have to, since the
old smbmount packages won't work with kernel 2.2), then the syntax is a
little different. I've found I have to use backslashes now for the share
(not forward slashes):
smbmount '\\main.home\main-d' -I IP_ADDRESS_OF_MAIN -c 'mount /mnt'
