this (above) is the correct solution.  see, this was a 'peculiar' card

that it needed to have its [broken] pnp turned off from dos/windoze.

is (or should be) pretty well known..  at least it was when the card

I am have bind 8something running on my RH5.2 computer.  Very soon it is going
to be used as a gateway to the internet, and I was wondering if I have to list
the dns address of my isp on my windows clients?  Can I just put the ip address
of my dns server/gateway on my private network in the dns information area in
windows?  Can or will my dns forward internet requests to my isp?  These
questions are from a newbie so talk slowly and use small words.

   Actually, your Cisco is connected to a TSU or CSU or DSU, which connects
to the T1.  On that xSU, you may have more than one port.  Most have V.35,
and many also have RS232 and others.  This is importaint later.

   All you need is a high speed serial card with the right port.  V.35 is
the usual router standard, but others may work with your xSU.

> Would I see any performance gains?

   Actually, the reverse may be true.  First you have encoding.  You never
said what kind of T1 it is.  Clear channel?  Frame Relay?  ATM?  Only the
first works easily with Linux under PPP.
   Now you have all the neat default settings.  Things like compression,
encapsulation, RIP, BofL... <BofL is for Breath of Life, a packet that
keeps the circuit up>  It is had to get Cisco to talk with Bay^h^h^hNortel.
 With Linux, you have a whole new set of headaches.
   Lastely, is the Cisco really a bottleneck?  Or is the T1.  A chain is
only as strong as it's weakest link, and usually that is the line.

After trying, and failing a hundred times to use ppp-on etc, I tried
linuxconf as suggested in this post.  It worked first time, and
continues to work.

However  the /sbin/ifdown ppp0 doesn't work and would appreciate any
suggestion as where I should be looking to fix this problem.

Date: Fri, 11 Jun 1999 07:52:08 GMT

Hi !

I use a Thinkpad 760 ED with a PCMCIA-Token-Ring-Adapter (Token Ring
Auto 16/4 or Token Ring Turbo 16/4).
As OS I use Suse Linux 6.1 (selfmade kernel (2.2.5) with TR-support)
with Pcmcia-Tools version 3.0.11.

The Pcmcia-Tools work fine if I use my normal Ethernet-Card or my
Modem-Card. If I insert one of the two Token-Ring-Cards it is getting
funny.
cardctl detects my Token-Ring Card. If I go for 

ifconfig tr0 up

my system hangs. Than I have to shutdown my system.

Does anybody know why my system hangs when I execute ifconfig ?

netstat confirms Token-Ring-Support.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Kind Regards

ya know what your problem is? your stupid. if you would read the freaking text
files, you would figure it out. i started with a blank partition, slack 3.5,
and my brain. i figured everything out in 3 months so just shut up and stop
saying linux sucks. its not that it sucks its just that you don't have the
willpower to learn how to use it. my philosophy was linux or bust. besides
using linux in the business scene, i've conquered it all in about 5 months.
course there is still many avenues to explore, but i know my stuff (i started
with slack because it seemed hard and it was and it taught me well). so
basically what i'm trying to say is, don't complain until you have something to
complain about.

What I would like to do is setup a Linux box so the Office computers

Another way would be to tell LILO not to even wait at a prompt but to go
right into the boot sequence.  This would prevent, of course, *anyone*
from even going into single user mode, but would provide the *most*
security.  With a password protected BIOS that ignores the floppy and
CDROM drive on boot, you'd be good to go.

To get in, one would have to 1) know the BIOS password to change the
BIOS settings, 2) have a special boot floppy with a copy of the kernel
and/or loadlin or something to boot in for system changes.  In a school,
this shouldn't be a problem.

Somebody asked and someone else answered this one already.  

You're stuck with Netmeeting and some of these because they *initiate*
connections to the receiver's IP address.  IP chains work because the
sender is behind the firewall.  The routing mechanism remembers the
outgoing connection and expects a *response* on the same port or set of
ports for the same protocol.  In the case of Netmeeting and FTP and the
like, there isn't anything to tell the firewall that incoming requests
are meant for the specific machine; it thinks they're going to itself. 
(Excepting ftp--I do remember seeing firewall modules for it...) 

I believe the answer for now is: No go.  ...Unless someone else has
written some new stuff.  I've tried NetMeeting and VIRC's video chat
stuff too.  Can't get anywhere yet.

Hi,
With kernel versions 2.2.5 to 2.3.5 I get the same message:   nfssvc:

I have definetly compiled NFS support in the kernel. I have emailed Red Hat
with this query as it looks like a kernel problem. I will post their reply
when I get it.
I wonder if kernel versions 2.0 will allow the nfsd to run?

Date: Sat, 12 Jun 1999 07:33:34 GMT

Redhat installs:
Samba version 2.0.3
Autofs version 3.1.3

Somewhere between the version of samba that shipped with
RH5.2 and the version that shipped with RH6.0 the command
line parameters for smbmount appear to have changed.

old format :  /usr/sbin/smbmount //Myserver/Myshare
/mypath/mymountpoint <options>
new format :  /usr/sbin/smbmount //Myserver/Myshare <options> -c 'mount
/mypath/mymountpoint'

After being unable to get automount to work with -fstype=smbfs,
I downloaded the autofs-3.1.3 sources.  autofs appears to be
calling smbmount using the old format.

Is there a patch to make autofs mount smbfs shares?
Is anyone working on this issue?

If I have missed something obvious, please point me in the right
direction.

ttyp1
ttyp2
ttyp3

So, in your case, you might want to add: ttyp4 to ttypXX

Note: For security reason, you shouldn't telnet as root.
It's better to log in as a normal user, and then su to
become superuser.

I expected to see ATDT instead of ATDP.  'P' means do pulse dialing.
'T' means use touchtone dialing.  Hardly anyone uses pulse dialing
anymore.  This was used when old rotary phones were in use.

Second, the 8-bit clean part means to me your modem is not initialized
the way it wants to me.  I'd try 'minicom' to view/set the modem
init string in the modem bios.  But be careful to write down the
settings before and after any change.

Subject: Newbie in need of HELP: Squid DNS problem
Date: Fri, 11 Jun 1999 10:59:50 +0200

Hi!

I�m a networking newbie in need of help. I managed to make RedHat5.2 use
the ISDN-Card and to dial to the ISP using PPP. Now I want to use Squid
to serve the other Win95-Computers in the 192.168.1.x network. But when
the system boots and should start squid, I get an error messsage, that
squid has an DNS lookup problem.
I can start squid after I connected to the ISP. If squid runs I may shut
down the internet-connection and restart it without problems.

Now my question: How to avoid this errer and make squid start while the
system boots. 

Thanks in advance for any help suggestions.

Hi,
  The nfsd (rpc.nfsd) daemon won't run under kernel versions 2.2.0 to
2.3.6.
Terminates with the message:
       nfssvc:  Function not Imlemented.

Does the nfsd daemon run on kernel versions 2.0? Please post a message
if it does.

I have asked Red Hat for an explanation but am still waiting.
I will post it if I get it!
Thanks.

Subject: Help Needed with routing problem....
Date: Sat, 12 Jun 1999 10:08:26 +0100

I'm relatively new to linux, and have an odd and presently difficult
problem:
I have two border routers, one to another site and one default to the
internet. The route table entries are :

192.0.2.0 194.73.58.171 255.255.255.0 UG 1500 0 0 eth0

for the other site and

0.0.0.0 194.73.58.1 0.0.0.0 UG 1500 0 0 eth0

for default. When I ping/traceroute a system on the other lan it works
fine, I deduce my linux setup is therefore OK. When I ping for example
www.redhat.com, I get no reply, and traceroute shows me no entries. All
my
other system - SCO, WinNT, Solaris, work fine and see both the other
site AND internet sites.

Anyone seen similar or got any ideas? This is driving me crazy because
at the moment the WinNT faction are crowing & I can't make any reply
because I can't solve it!!!

HEEELLLLPPP!!

TIA
    Kevin Anderson
