Subject: [Newbie] Troubles with ISA ethernet card
Date: Fri, 7 May 1999 00:22:01 +0200
Hi,
I own a ISA pnp NE 2000 compatible ethernet card.
During Mandrake 5.3 installation process (network configuration part), it
asks for wich module to use.
I've tried Ne and compatibles, specified the io an irq that I found in
Win98, but it still says that it doesn't find anything.
Now, during the boot process, isapnp detect the board and gives some
informations about it, wich I checked in isapnp.conf and are correct (irq,
io).
But I guess it's not enough, as it still doesn't work.
insmod ne io=0240 irq=10
-> says that the device is busy or unreachable
cat /proc/devices
->don't really know how to interpret what I see, but it doesn't seems that
anything related to my card is in there.
I've also tried a few other stuffs that I can't remember.
I've read that the boot sequence should show a line begining with "eth0=..."
; I guess that if I can't even reach this point, it's nosense trying to
configure my network under kde ... but correct me if I'm wrong 8-)
As it's said in the topic, I'm a linux newbie and so I don't know if I'm
giving the right information for you to help me. Please let me know if I
forgot any crucial informations.
Thanks by advance.
Touffi

Subject: isp's fair use policy
Date: Fri, 07 May 1999 22:30:03 -0500
Hi,
I would like to be able to access my linux box at home over the
internet. The problem is that my ISP has a "fair use" policy, so they
don't like it when I leave my computer dialed in all day. Has anyone
setup or know how to setup my linux box so I can call the line that the
modem is connected to via a voice line, have it ring but not answer,
then wait until the line is free and dial my ISP? Or can anyone think
of a better solution?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't think my ISP likes me
being logged in for over 20 hours a day.
Thanks,
Ben

I too have been having a hard time getting printer sharing to work. I had it
working in two minutes in RH5.2, but something's different in 6.0 I guess.
I have a Deskjet 600 on a RH6 box that will print just fine from the local
host, but not from my NT workstation! The file shares are working like a charm
for me. It's using the encrypted passwords and everything. Did you do anything
different to get it up and going when you were still in NT4?

I believe i had something similar today, and I tried that option which
has changed from 1.9.x to 2.0.x; I changed
security = user
to
security = share
and i finally got things running. My template file was using 'user'
level security, which I think i do want to use, but I need to figure how
to get that running to begin with. I'm running redhat 6.0 w/ shadow
and MD5 passwords, if that matters.

Are you sure you need to be using PAP? It doesn't look like the server
you're dialing into is responding to PAP. Try it without PAP.
