yup, i think i found it
check your /etc/protocols
should have a line like this:
icmp 1 icmp ( plus maybe some comment here )
see if its there and add it if not

The most flexible and easiest way to connect two machines is over
Ethernet. You can buy ISA Ethernet cards in the US for around $10/each
that will work fine with Linux.

Hello,
I got a RH 5.1 installed in my home server as ipmasq, printer server and
file server with Samba and Netatalk. I got cable modem connected to it.
I haven't touch the sendmail configure file since the system installed.
I have tried to find the mail server howto but they all in bits and
pieces.
I found that the sendmail stop after a while when the system start, when
I look at the log in /var/log/maillog, it shows:

But how is it that you can bind a device to the masquerading. Can it
be done through ipfwadm (2.0 kernel)? Or would the binding be done
through manually changing the /proc/net/ip_xxxxx files? And if so
whats the format for those arguments? I've tried reading some of the
man pages but they only make a little sense to me.
If you could give me more info or point me to it that'd be great. So
many questions and so little answers ;-)
Thanks Kai.

That works now, thanks. But it is still very slow, I have to stay
logged on for some time before I get my mail downloaded for me. Is
this because Demon is slow, or because fetchmail waits before
polling pop3.demon.co.uk?

Is it possible to get it to run a program when each email arrives, as
well as getting it sent to sendmail? I want to make it beep when I
get new mail.

Could I use procmail to get stuff put into different mailboxes? If so,
do I need to do anything specific when I run fetchmail?

You'll have to grab the info from /var/wtmpx or the equivalent
on your system.

I've noticed that fetchmail is a little slow but not that bad. I useally
run it in the background with the command, fetchmail -d 600, this way I
don't even see it and it dls mail every 10 minutes automatically.

Yes, this is what I do. Here is one filter rule for your .procmailrc file:
:0
* ^Received.*(\[153\.3[2-9]|\[208\.25[0-5]|uu.net)
{
:0c
flush
:0
| ~/wav/plunk
}
This rule scans the header of all incoming mail, screens out uu.net spam
and puts it in a folder called plunk. It activates this script that makes
a toilet flushing sound as it does. Here's the script:
cat - > /dev/null
wavplay ~/wav/flush.wav
I love procmail!

Subject: map_static in exports?
Date: 15 May 1999 16:43:28 GMT
Hi,
anybody knows how to use the map_static-Option in /etc/exports files?
I'm using RedHat 6.0 and the man 5 exports tells me i may use this option to
map uids and gids from nfs-clients to the server.
My entry in exports is ... mynfsclient(rw,map_static=/etc/nfs.map)
/etc/nfs.map looks like this:
uid 700-800 700
gid 700-800 700
But exportfs complains with:
exportfs: Unknown keyword "map_static=/etc/nfs.map" in export file
Any help?

I had this problem when I was using getty too. With me the modem kept
locking up when I got a call where someone hung up too soon and the modem
couldn't complete the connection. Sometimes the thing would actually have
the lock file in place. Yours looks to not be the case as your log files
say the modem responded to the ATZ signal. Try and dialing out with
minicom or seeing if you can reset the modem through that. As to why this
happens it's beyond me. Good luck.

?? Don;t know what the speed requirement is since the loading speed of
ppp is not a limiting factor.
Anyway, in general look at

Problem #1: Your Red Hat 5.1 is a root exploit waiting to happen.
Even if you upgrade to 5.2, there's still some work ahead of you. But
as far as sendmail is concerned, get rid of the version included with
either RH, and install 8.9.3 Then, of course, go through all the
other usual security measures... put ALL: ALL in /etc/hosts.deny,
comment out all unneeded services, etc.

I get lots of errors when I boot k6:
portmap: RPC call returned error 111
RPC: task of released request still queued
RPC: (task on xprt pending)
lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-111
The mounts can be used however file groups and owners
are all messed up !
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

First: Your serial connection would be painfully slow... don't bother.
The reason it's not working is probably the fact that pppd would need
to be set up for whatever weird protocol the Windows box will expect.
Two: I second Mike about getting a couple of $10 Ethernet cards and a)
a hub and a couple of cables, or b) a crossover cable, or c) a piece
of RG-58 and a couple of terminators (id the cards have BNC
connections, then they should come with Ts).
Three: I really doubt that you can "share" the modem. You can share
the *connection*, though... if the modem is on the Windows box, get
SyGate (www.sygate.com), and if it's on the Linux box, use IP
Masquerading. There's a HOWTO for setting that up.
Good luck!

Well, in case you have not read the following, it may help

Wrong format.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] * password
The second item which you have as password, is actually the other
machine name (suppied in remotename option.) The * says accept any
remotename.

Looks to me like you have modem prolems. Issomething else using one of
the serial lines?
(By the way, where do you tell pppd which modem port to use? I did not
see it anywhere.)

Subject: Re: Q: Newbie. Can't get client address
Im not quite with you here
if you are talking about a telnet connection to a server from a client then
you may try using some unix scripts
you could just do a 'whoami' or at worst get the user name some otherway and
do a 'whois' on that
I guess if worst came to worst you could try a ping and then read the IP
from that and report it back
The client address should be in the syslog as well as initiating the telnet
session (or any other connection)
any way... good luck
