Actually, ISA card modems are usually not winmodems (you prolly have just a
10% chance of having a software modem). Try looking into the redhat package
"isapnptools" that will help you set up any plug and play settings for the
card.

I just got this card to work yesterday in a Dell I3500. I downloaded the
RH6.0 bootdisk (netboot.img) and the auxilliary pcmcia.img, booted off the
floppy with the NIC in, and answered Y when asked about PCMCIA during
installation. The card was recognized OK. I then opted for an HTTP
installation which went through flawlessly - using the 3CCFE575BT, which of
course continues to work fine. I was upgrading from RH5.2 which has an
older version of he PCMCIA package which did not recognize the card. I was
originally planning to compile the new pcmcia package, but then I figured
this would be a way to upgrade RH at the same time.

Subject: Routing IPX through PPP
Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 22:47:51 +0800

I have a customer I set up with a Debian SLINK 2.1 box that is a gateway
+ mail server to the Internet for their local network.

He would like to dial into another modem hanging off that box and access the
Internet.

But more importantly he needs access his Novell 4 server.

The remote site runs 95/98.

Any info/references/docs/tips on how to set this up would be appreciated.

As before, the attempt to ping @Home's DNS (IP = 24.4.162.33) just hangs.
Attempting to telnet to the same IP address still gets me this message:
"Unable to connect to remote host:  No route to host"

Does the config info above look ok?

Date: Mon, 17 May 1999 04:19:53 -0400

Hi,

On our server, we are running Redhat 5.2 with kernel 2.2.9 and currently
use ipchains to masquerade the networked computers. Let's say the main
server is maindomain.com ..

Now, I would like one machine to be live on the internet as
"galaxy.maindomain.com". I cannot use 192.168.1.113 can I? Well, if this
is not the case, we have an IP address we can use...

How should I go about doing this whilst using ipchains. I cannot find any
material on the net which discusses this in depth. 

Thank you very much.

No, they assign a ststic IP address.

Yes, I have a username and password, but I shouldn't need those just to 
ping their nameserver or to establish a telnet connection.

Thanks for the resonse.

Subject: timed problems
Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 15:02:46 GMT

I followed a thread on timed here in this groups, but as this does not
match my questions, I start a new one.

When I start timed on a server with the command

timed -M -F servername

I expected that this daemon would take the master role.

Then I started a client with the command

timed -n network

This is what I got back from the client:

bash-2.02# timedc
timedc> msite
communication error with keller
timedc> q
bash-2.02# ps ax|grep timed
  152  ?  S    0:00 timed -n dadoka
bash-2.02#


If you have any idea what the output of timedc means and why my clock is
not set, even though the timed is still active, please drop me a note.

Thanks
Karl

It helps to have studied history.  Once upon a time, before
the Internet changed everything, there were these strange
things made from dead trees :-)

Seriously, you REALLY want to spring for a copy of O'Reilly's
_Linux_In_a_Nutshell_ -- if you could have only one Linux book
this would be it.  Not a tutorial, but absolutely useful every
day.  Beyond that, there are a whole bunch of Linux overview
books that all useful, some more than others depending on what
you're trying to do.  The LDP (http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP) is
quite helpful but mostly if you've already got a fair collection
of clues.

We know that being in the UK makes a lot of this more expensive,
too.  Dunno what CheapBytes overseas charges are or if tarifs
get involved.

We have also upgraded from RH 5.2 to 6, and we have a mixture of
Solaris 2.5 and 2.6 clients/servers.  Not having any problems right
now with NFS (actually things have gotten a little better with RH 6).
We used to experience mountd failures, but most of that has cleared
up now.

using your examples

No G on the first line

Otherwise I think it means you have two default gateways

can't have "TWO" defaults

Can you ping the Cable modem ????

Start at the basics then work your way forward

Ping yourself

ping both lan cards

ping the cable modem

I would also think that you would need to actually Log on with you username
and Password before any routes can be put in place by your provider !!!!

They probably assign the routes for you automatically on login.

OK, that's interesting, it's gotta be something new to 2.2-5.X, because
I noticed it myself, that line did not use to be there with RH5.2 (i.e.,
2.0.36). I am not sure whether it creates a problem or not.

Yes, copy error. I typed the above.

Our rule is that you REJECT local packets and DENY external
ones.  Mainly because the only not-accepted external packets
should be port scans and such, and we are NOT interested in
suggesting that more effort might pay off.

Date: Sat, 22 May 1999 12:31:22 -0700


Hello,
I have RedHat6.0 and Xircom RBEM56G-100 Ethernet and Modem
Card. This card is not supported by PCMCIA.

I found on the WEB that there is a possibility to recompile
drivers/net/tulip.c
and to use pcmcia-cs-3.0.10 with commented line
if(sz == 0) break;

I did all like in the pcmcia howto, but after this I didn't 
get this card to work, but also loose my previous working
card Mariner.

Could you write what step and in what order should I do
to upgrade pcmcia support and driver? 

Thanks.

Dmitry.

Hi all,

I get incorrect time on my redhat linux 5.2 system. When I set correct
time using linuconf date/time tool, it stays correct for some time and
then gets screwed again after some time. I set it to correct time
yesterday and now it's one hour ahead of  my local time. I guess the
problem is related to daylight savings time? Since I want to
synchronoize time of other hosts on the network with this machine, I
want to maintain accurate time on this machine. How do I configure this
machine to synchronize it's time with other standard time servers (eg.
US military)? I tried to set this using linuxconf date/time tool, but it
doesn't seem to be working correctly.

More info:

In my last message I wrote that I changed my config as recommended above, 
but saw no difference in behavior (ping/telnet still didn't work.)  However
there *is* a difference in the output of tcpdump.

Output with previous config:

Note that during this output I am not explicly addressing eth1.  If may be 
just a coincident that the tcpdump has changed, but there you go.

Although there apparently is activity on eth1, the RX seen with ipconfig
are not increment regularly during this activity, though the TX count does
increment.  Hmm.  This is an example of output:

# /sbin/ipconfig eth1

Any thoughts?
