Thank you, Clifford; I will do as you suggest.   One of the problems of being
a newbie, is that everything (including protocol) must be learned the hard
way.

 I'm using a plug & play Boca 33.6 on com1 in DOS ( and PS2 mouse) and I'm not
entirely sure how to configure the modem in Linux.  I don't know if my
hardware is addressed by stty.

It is possible, yes.   You'll need to set up Sendmail to allow relaying
from the windows boxes.  That can be done by adding their IP addresses
to /etc/mail/relay-domains, but it will depend on how Sendmail has been
configured.  Might be easier to start from scratch with the newest
version of Sendmail and write the .mc file yourself.  Then, if the
windows boxes have different names you will need to masquerade them
behind your real address. <URL:http://www.sendmail.org/> has FAQs on
masquerading and relaying and things.  You could also try looking at
<URL:http://www.freshmeat.net> for install_sendmail, which AIUI is a
script to do just that.  (I haven't tried it myself.) <URL:http://member

On my SuSE system the driver for the DE450 is called de4x5, and is
documented in /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/de4x5.c and in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/README.de4x5

There is information on SCO UNIX/OpenServer drivers at

although I have no idea wether these are of any use with Linux.

There is also a command in the smb.conf called "set mode".  If you know the
numbers for the chmod program, use these for set mode.  It is almost like
the "valid users" and "public" commands. only you can control group and user
read, write, and execute.  Here are the chmod numbers:
4000 - Set user ID on execute
2000 - Set Group ID on execute
1000 - ONLY owner has creat/delete privilleges (dirs only)
400 - Owner Read
200 - Owner Write
100 - Owner Execute
40 - Group Read
20 - Group Write
10 - Group Execute
4 - Other Read
2 - Other write
1 - other execute
You combine these numbers in a 4 digit form, i.e. 4000 + 400 + 200 + 50 + 7
= 4657 <-This is your mode

Samba may have been installed when you installed RedHat.  If it wasn't, mount
the  RedHat CD, go to the RedHat/RPMS directory and find the samba package (it
should be named something like samba-2.0.3-8.i386.rpm).  From that directory,
run the following command (substituting in the correct package name, of
course):
rpm -ivh samba-2.0.3-8.i386.rpm
Restart the linux box and make sure samba starts.  Write back if it doesn't
work.

Hmmm...I'm not an expert here, but I _am_ masquerading two Windows machines

I'm using the stock 2.2.5 one provided by Redhat. Are you using IPChains to

Make sure that you are using the same user.  Here's an exa,ple.  If you have a
directory shared in Linux via samba to a user called jdoe, you must be logged on
under windows as jdoe.  Therefore, if you have a share for the user jdoe2, jdoe
will not be able to access it.

As far as making you maindomain.com public on the internet, you need to visit
a domain name registration service.  You can find a pretty common one here:
http://www.internic.com
You must register your domain to make it public on the internet.  It cost
around $100 or more, but it can be worth it.

It really doesn't matter who you pick, as long as it;s NOT AOL, or
Compuserve.
If you have cable modem service in your area, you should definately consider
it.  You can download the latest distributions of linux in a couple of
hours.  It is a little more of a challenge to get the cable modem going
under linux, but it's not difficult.  As with all providers though, tell
them you're using Window 95 so they don't get distracted by your questions
and start blaming linux.  Once you have linux mastered, and your positive
that problems are not on your end, then you can start grilling them with
linux :)

Have you set the file permissions of your home directory and of
public_html in a way that would look like rwx---r-x ? Apache belongs to
"others" and so needs at least read-access, presumably execute access
to search your directory as well.

I have never done it before, but you can try using routing.  If you do
decide to route, however, drop the squid program and route your http
connections as well.  Its just a little advice.  Otherwise, the squid
program might have a port mapper.  Also check out www.linuxberg.com.  I just
got a proxy server called dante from the console software section on that
site.  It is a pretty complete program.

Cuuently, I have a small problem with the 'line draw' characters that
Clipper uses to draw boxes. But otherwise, the full color of the Clipper
program looks good (but so much depends on the telnet program and on the
Clipper program itself).  Slackware (get a current version from Cheapbytes)
is more than an acceptable version of Linux although I use RedHat 6.0.  The
main thing is to become knowledgeable about whatever Linux you are using.

You will be a little 'short' on horsepower, but once you are up and running
you can decide where to go from there.  Ideally, the server should be a
small to medium pentium (75-200M Hz) with at least 16M RAM, but try what you
have and go from there.  Your only cost (apparently) is your labor.  Disk
mirroring is down with RAID and will require (I think) a RAID controller
which will cost you $$.  My suggestion would be to let that go for a while
till you find out if this will work to meet your specs.

No, (I think) the only OS for that is Windoze NT and lots of $$.  But a full
RAID (with Linux) is more that feasible (given time and $$).
