I know this may sound really simple-minded, but
did you connect the two boxes using either a
cross-over cable or straight cables and a hub?
Your symptoms are consistent with using a
straight cable to go from NIC to NIC.

sure the maschines are entered in /etc/hosts of the linux server? If not
then that might be the problem..

No, the makefile is correct. /usr/bin/cc should exist as a symlink to
/usr/bin/gcc if GCC is the system's default C compiler. You should only need
to explicitly tell make to use gcc if you want to compile with gcc on a system
with another C compiler installed as cc (i.e. A solaris box with Sun's
compiler installed.)
He needs to check and make sure that his compiler is installed correctly.

Thank you, Larry -- this problem seems so basic that it MUST be
something simple-minded, but that's (unfortunately) not it. I've tried
it with the straight cable and with a NetGear 4-port minihub -- same
results both ways.
What I DID notice was that in plugging into the hub, I get a 'good
connection' light on the cable going to the Linux box (of course) and no
light at all for the connection to the Win95 box. At first I thought
NIC, so I replaced the older 3C509 with my newer 3C905, but that didn't
change a thing.
Still baffled...

This linux server has been been rebooted twice since Nov/96 when it was
installed. Both times for power interruptions longer than the UPS could hold
for.
Currently at:
[19:19] # uptime
2:58pm up 337 days, 1:55, 15 users, load average: 0.06, 0.02, 0.00
It does mail, web and directory services.
We have been thinking of instituting a reboot once a year policy. Probably
between Xmas and New Years simply to ensure that it actually will. Sometimes
the various software packages have been re-installed several times and it
would be comforting to know that the correct software would get restarted if
it had to reboot. :-)

I have an Epson Stylus COLOR II hooked up to my Linux server. I have it
shared in Samba, and I was able to add it as a printer in Windows NT
Workstation before I went to the -released- Windows 2000 Pro Beta 3. Now I
try and add the shared printer, and it says "unable to connect to shared

itself is working. I can also print a testpage fine with Redhat's
printtool.
What's up with that?
p.s. - It also seems that Samba freezes from time to time (well, according
to Windows) and won't list files on the shares for like a couple minutes at
a time.

A NIC-to-NIC connection with a straight
cable should not work. You would need
a cross-over cable (1/2 <-> 3/6) for that.

You had said earlier that each NIC works
(flawlessly) when connected to the cable
modem. This pretty much rules out dead-
as-a-doornail failure for the NIC's. The
mechanism by which hubs register the
presence of a 10?BaseT connection to
light up the "Link" LED is simply sensing
DC voltage from the NIC transmitter. So
I doubt the OS has anything to do with
not seeing that "Link" indicator since the
card you mention has only the one RJ-45
port. (If it could select another port, such
as BNC, that would be a good suspect.)
I imagine you have tried swapping the
cables at the NIC end to see whether
that brings the "Link" indicator on for
the Win95 box. If not, you may still
have a cabling problem. Maybe you
have one cross-over cable in the mix.
BTW, I have 3 local systems here, all
on the same physical network, running
each of Linux 2.0.36, Windows 98,
and Windows NTW 4.0. I never had
any reason to be manipulating the
routing tables directly. Other than
getting the NIC driver loaded and
setting the default gateway, there
was nothing more needed to get
local ping functionality. (Logically
nothing. I had to swap out two bad
NIC's first.) For a simple, single
network, I don't think you should
have to manually add routes.

Date: Sun, 02 May 1999 22:19:52 GMT
Can anyone tell me how to use FTP to PUT an entire directory to an FTP
server? The default FTP appears to not allow this. Also, the X windows nftp
program has a feature to do a recursive GET on a directory, but I don't see
any way to do a recursive PUT of a directory. Mac & Win clients are able to
do this, so is there a more powerful Linux FTP client out there that'll do
this, possibly with a nice X interface??

Diald looses the first packet, the one that makes it fire up the link.
I have to do something to make it come up first (i ping x, i hope nobody
ever sets up a server called x) and then wait 20secs, then do whatever I
wanted.
It's a known problem with diald. They have no answer.
diald uses a slip route to trap the packet, then once it starts up the link
it establishes a ppp route. As a result, anything in the slip route gets
lost.

Hi everyone...
Haven't been able to find an answer to this one. I have a small lan of
win95 computers connected to a linux slackware (kernel 2.0.29) masqueraded
box. I recently installed diald so that when any of the computers in the
office requested internet services the linux box would do its thing and dial
the ISP. This works mostly fine. The problem is this:
Lets say I telnet to a box external to the LAN. And lets say that
I'm telnetting from either the linux box or a win95 box on the LAN. The
diald daemon works as it should and dials the ISP, chats back and forth and
establishes a ppp link. At this point I have been assigned by local and
remote IP #'s.
Now comes the problem. The telnet application is still acting like its
trying to find the site I requested. I have to actually quit the telnet
session and re-telnet (i.e., telnet while the IP link is already up).
Telnet then works fine. This same phenomenon happens also when I send
email.. and I think web browsing.
Any ideas what may be happening?
Thanks alot

### no response, 100% packet loss
I suppose the answer lies in the route command, but nothing that I've
tried
seems to help...
slzlr3# route add default ppp0
slzlr3# route add default gw 206.41.131.5
Any suggestions are appreciated, Thanks in advance...

I was getting ready to try this myself. I'll end up using
an old 486 and several old cdroms scavanged from
dead pcs. I'll use Samba and allow users to connect
to them. The only thing that I'll have to work out is whether
I'll be able to allow the users to mount cd's themselves.
mas
ps - I *know* that a cdrom isn't nearly as fast as
a hard drive, local or otherwise. That's a different
problem...
