Fixed now the problem was setting the following options..
public
writeable
read only
Now I can read & write setting users and almost
anything.
Many thanks to all that sent me info etc..
It was all in the samba site.

Subject: DEC depca ethernet card recognized by Linux?
Date: 21 May 1999 22:38:17 GMT
I've got an old 8 bit Ethernet card from Digital, which according to the
FCC ID and to
http://www.wi-inf.uni-essen.de/~schwarze/nt/karten/net13.html appears to
be a DEC depca. Booting Linux 2.2.9 with Lance support compiled in it is
not recognized, even when supplying lilo with ether=5,0x300,0xd000,eth0
(those are the values jumpered according to the above web page).
The LEDs do not light up either.
Is there anything I could still try?

News Flash: Microsoft today announced that "Microsoft Money" had
become an integral part of Windows 98 Episode Six. "That's right,"
said Bill Gates, Microsoft Chairman, "we've found a way to make
Money an integral part of the operating system. Every upgrade
to 98/Sex includes $120."
Early reports that the $89 operating-system upgrade would result
in a Net loss to Microsoft proved unfounded. The Microsoft Money
turns out to be forty notes printed with the likeness of Bill
Gates, each with a face value of $3US. The notes can be used for
discounted retail purchases of other Microsoft software. According
to fine print in Microsoft's retail contracts, retailers are
obligated to honor the discount notes at their own expense.
A spokesman for one large software chain said that "It looks like
Microsoft keeps the Money and leaves us with the Bills."

Subject: IP addr - MAC addr Switch-Over !!! (HA - Q?)
Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 05:22:28 GMT
hi,
i need help on understanding a few basic concepts, and sorting
a problem that's been eating me for a while. here it goes...
i have a network which looks like this...
Client1 --------+ +--------- Client X
| |
Router 1 Router 2
| |
+-----+ +------+
| |
+---- Hub -----+
Server 1 --+ | | +--- Server 2
| | | |
+-----------+ +-------------+
where Server 1, Server 2, and the Hub are all put in as a black
box, having only 2 conns. to the external world, i.e. thru
Router1 and Router2... So Server 1 and Server 2 have 2 NICs
each. All the 4 NICs on the 2 servers have atleast one IP address
(i.e the interfaces have atleast 1 IP address), which belongs to
the Private Intranet class... say 10.x.x.x, which are known only
among themselves, i.e. Server 1 and Server 2. The Router 1 and
Router 2 know only 2 more IP addresses, which are Actual Internet
(unique) IP addresses. So, Router 1, will see either of Server 1
or Server 2 using IP address IP-1, and Router 2 would see either
of Server 1 or Server 2 using IP address IP-2. So, IP-1 and IP-2
are bound to a particular NIC on ANY ONE of the 2 Servers, at a
time. So the problem is ACTIVE-STANDBY switchover. We are talking
about a HighAvailability system. The aim is to have the TCP/IP
services always up for the Clients sitting on the other side of
the routers. When the ACTIVE machine fails an the erstwhile
STANDBY takes over, it must also takeover it's IP addresses, i.e.
IP-1 and IP-2, but what happens to the MAC address bindings...???
There are 2 solutions i hear to this problem. In one solution, we
keep the 2 machines on different ethernet segments, thereby allow-
ing the possibility of having 2 NICs (on the 2 machines) with same
MAC address, and just shutting of (how??) of one would ensure, the
other keeps getting... so here, the Routers need not do an ARP
flush for the association and reget the new MAC-IP association.
The other solution is to have 2 machines on same segment, but
induce an ARP flush on the Routers (how??), s.t. the Clients still
can transparently use the same IP address... (and yeah with or
without a re-connect() ???).
I think u'd have got the scene. Now my questions are :
1.) How can we have 2 NICs with same MAC addresses? Are the MAC
addresses not burnt into their PROMs or something...which gotta
be unique 48bit no. from IEEE (or something??) ???
2.) How can we ensure that confusion won't ensure, with 2 cards
who are still getting power, from not eating packets, meant for
the other ? (this maynot be an issue, with broadcast media!!!)
3.) How can an ARP flush be induced on a router??? Is that thing
sufficient to say that clients can still come thru to the new
machine (with a diff MAC address), transparently??
4.) What are the pitfalls, and catches, and issues, and misses i've
made in this discussion (which i am sure would be many!!)...
5.) Do all routers behave same to this induced ARP flush? Infact
how can we induce such a flush? and how long does it take?
6.) What exactly does a Hub do? What more can it do?
That's a lot of questions put together... Hope to hear an answers
from the grand-dads of Ethernet, Networking, TCP/IP...?? Please
help the relative-Newbie... Most of the questions i presume are
naive, but it takes time to learn!!
TIA,
banibrata.

edit the /etc/conf.modules file

thats it if you only have one card !!
this should setup the card every time you boot ( this is where the system

Hi David,
This happened with me also in same situation ie. change over from slackware
to Resdhat. You seem to have class C network, if i guessed right. one of the
commands you have been trying refers to class B network with netmask
255.255.0.0. This will never work.
Try following steps. Pl. don't use traceroute version of Redhat. It has bug
that doesn't pick ppp adapter's path. Copy slackware's traceroute.
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -f
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -p deny
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a accept m -S 192.168.0.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 /* if
192.168.0.0/24 doesn't work try 192.168.0.0/32
If you wish to allow only a certain machine (in this case 192.168.1.123),
access to the Internet,
you could instead add the rule
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.0.123/32 -D 0.0.0.0/0
You can set up further rules to block access to certain sites and log
traffic etc. The following rule denies and logs traffic attempting
to go to the site 207.9.12.47 ipfwadm -I -a reject -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D
207.9.12.47/32 -o.

Subject: Gnome: Could not look up internet address
Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 02:14:05 -0400
I'm new to all this, so please bear with me.
I'm running Redhat 5.2 with the latest Gnome as my window manager.
My ISP is a company in NYC called Panix, which has given me a static IP
166.84.197.169. Panix's nameservers are 198.7.0.1 and 198.7.0.2. My username
there is wyshbone.
I have 2 accounts on my Linux machine - the root account and a user account
named wysh. I would like for the name of my machine to be terrier, which I
tried to set in Redhat's network configurator.
My problem is that every time I start Gnome it tells me that it "could not
lookup Internet address for terrier" and that "It may be possible to
continue by adding terrier to /etc/hosts".
If I look in /etc/hosts there is one line:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain.
If I add terrier (which I assume would be the host part) what wuld be the
domain part. And, what IP would go there? My static IP 166.84.197.169 from
my ISP?
If it matters, I've also checked /etc/resolv.conf which looks like:
domain panix.com
nameserver 198.7.0.1
nameserver 198.7.0.2
and /etc/hosts/conf, which looks like:
order hosts, bind
multi on
Sorry if this msg is a bit long, but this really has me frustrated. I've
tried changing, modifying and adding so many different settings to so many
different files that I don't know where I am anymore. And yes, I have gone
thru the relevent How-To's.
If anyone could lend some assistance I would be most grateful.
Thanks

yes. i recommend running a packet filtering firewall at the very
least. bob ziegler has a great site for firewall and has scripts for
both ipfwadm and ipchains. it's at
<URL:http://rlz.ne.mediaone.net/>
follow the relevant links.
the packet filtering will allow you to run telnetd, ftpd &c while
preventing anyone from the outside from hooking up to those services.

some people only have one machine. while a bastion host is nice, a
packet filter is better than nothing. and the bastion should be
running packet filtering in any event.

/etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow only affect inetd so services not
controlled by inetd bypass these. that is why i really like the
packet firewall.

finally, i would really recommend getting a back-up device. if you
make weekly back-ups to tape, a cracker break-in is much less costly
in time and aggravation. nothing beats a good back-up. it helps me
defend against the idiot attack launched from the person sitting in my

actually, you can do that later. when the pachell guy came here, he
had a laptop with him (smart move). that way, you can config your
host at your own leasure. but before he leaves INSIST that he demo IP
connectivity. as a good joke on them, point them to MY page and show
them all the vertically-red areas, showing pachell dsl being down ;-)
if you can run my CGI's (just forms - NO java or javascript and
nothing browser-specific) then you know you have reached a real site
and not some laptop's browser cache ;-)

IPADDR="24.4.162.173" <-------
You have assigned your internet /cable modem address to your eth1 network card,
that won't work.
Give your eth1 card a local ip like you have for the eth0 card.
I'll give a tough sketch of what needs to happen:
if you give eth1 an ip address of 192.168.0.13,
Then you need :
route add 24.4.162.173 gw 192.168.0.13
route add default gw 24.4.162.173
I'm probably wrong about the syntax
Just give the eth1 a local ip address and leave the gateway address as
24.4.162.173,
and maybe the startup scripts will set the default route up correctly
I hope someone explains this better, or gives the right numbers to plug into the
config files :))
The point is that you want a local ip for the eth1 interface card and use that as
the gateway out
of the machine, and the default route is a "logical route" that flows through the
hardware route.
The 24.4.162.173 is the address of the cable modem device

Subject: Linux / Win98 file sharing, cable modem sharing
Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 03:13:45 -0400
Hi... I have 3 computers... one with RedHat6...... and two with Windows
98....currently I am sharing my cable modem between the two win98 machines
using WinGate. Could I do the same thing with the Linux box using WinGate
off the Win98 box? Let me put it this way:
Can I share a modem connection between a Windows machine and a Linux machine
via WinGate?
If not, I am willing to use the Linux box as the primary host....but I don't
know how to configure it to share the connection. Any ideas, comments,
suggestions, links, etc etc would be greatly appreciated =)
Thanks,
-Dave-
