Your file is corrupt? How about uninstalling and reinstalling SAMBA. That
should give you a clean copy of smb.conf
Just a stupid thought.

The syntax is wrong for your conf.modules file. Should be:

I have a mac home network with a PC running RH 6.0 (kernel 2.29) serving
internet connections.
Netatalk works fine for 99% of our file sharing needs. However, with large
files (like when backing up a mac to the server) netatalk dies after around
300 Mb (of a 1.5 Gb file) with the message:
"The file server�s connection has unexpectedly closed down [9:40 PM on
6/9/99]."
I'm using netatalk 1.4b2+asun2.13

I'm not using samba but, I just recently loaded the new libalias and
natd software on a FreeBSD 3.1 machine. I have successfully set this
up to allow win95 and win98 machines to access a NT 4.0 server behind
the FreeBSD firewall. The win95 and win98 machines then get a vpn
conection and are assigned an IP number from the NT 4.0 machines DHCP
pool for the private subnet. I don't see why they wouldn't see a
samba server on this subnet but, I believe the NT 4.0 server would
be required for the vpn/pptp setup.

That is, always has been, and always will be a bad analogy. A computer
is required to perform orders of magnitude more tasks, in number and
variety, than a car, and comparing them is not even meaningful.
Perhaps eventually we will see a no-brainer OS. At that point, we will
have lost all the flexibility that makes computers useful. A
two-dimensional area within which you click can never be as flexible
as issuing commands from the keyboard. It should be possible to
perform simple tasks that way, yes, but ultimately Windows 95 has
shown that trying to dispose of the command-line altogether [1] just
leaves many experienced users feeling frustrated.
[1] Yes, I know they didn't get rid of it completely, but they might
as well have done.

Oops, that was written before the morning's coffee has soaked in. Peter's

knowledge is hardcoded, but knowledge about the local terminal is table

Depending on the capabilities of the local terminal (e.g. scrolling
regions, 80/132-column switching, etc), a serviceable termlib-based vt100
emulator might be possible, to the extent it is useable by EMACS or vi, but
not necessarily by more demanding applications, such as those found on VMS.

The package for ftpd is called wu-ftpd. So the file would be

Another solution is to write a small diald-aware proxy which forwards client
connections to squid after ensuring that the connection is up. I have written
something similar, in perl, for fetchmail. Let me know if you are interested.

I can't help you on most of that, but Netscape is BRAINDEAD about setting up
a proxy. You can ONLY do it when you're online. If you try to do it and
you're not online, when you click the OK button, it'll go look for that
proxy and complain because it can't find it. I honestly can't believe that
something like this ever made it out of QA testing.

If the PC in your intranet is not visible to the external world, then why
bother giving it a real IP address which would not be accessible to the
external world?
I am not quite sure why an IPX protocol prevents you from using the ISP
provided address. Since you are masquerading, I assume you are also running
some kind of a firewall, so why don't you restrict IPX packets from passing
through the firewall?

The ISP hung-up. The changes in chatscript may not fix the problem.
Sometimes the scripts are not enough and exact logs of chat -v and pppd
debug are necessary. The logs are usually in /var/log but it varies
with distribution. Check /etc/syslog.conf for hints.
Knowing the kernel version and pppd version can sometimes help too.
The pppd options looked OK.

I automatically mapped my home directory on my linux machine to my

clicked on the directory from windows explorer. then selected map
network drive. For path I selected E. There was a box that said
something like, "automatically reconnect at startup." I checked
that box. Now whenever I logon to my windows machine using the
correct password and user name, I can see the E drive. I'm not sure
if this helps you, because your situation is quite different from
mine. I don't have a domain server, and I always log on to the same
windows machine. It is "my" windows machine. Like I say, I'm not

Sounds like your "default gateway" statements are messed up (which drive
your route statements)
The kernel will produce the error you're receiving when you try to add an
invalid route to the route table. Check your settings! With your setup
