Hah hah hah! You _obviously_ have never tried it. I have. Trust me,
no matter how bad you think Netscape is, IE for Solaris is much, much
worse. I posted a review of my experience with it last summer.
- It doesn't have any features except the browser (no mail, no news
client, no editor, etc.) It does have a way to invoke your own,
though (I wish Netscape made this simpler!) This is its _only_
useful point :).
- It's _huge_ compared to Netscape, both on disk and in memory--and
this is compared full-fledged Netscape Communicator with all the
trimmings, not the standalone Navigator, which is basically what IE
for Solaris is.
- It's _much_ slower than Netscape.
- The first time it starts it creates a huge directory structure under
your home directory with megabytes and megabytes of stuff in it (not
cache files, either).
- It died twice on me in one day.
- It looks and works more like a Windows app than a UNIX/X app. Yuck.
You may not like Netscape, but they do a far, far better job of writing
Windows apps than Microsoft does writing UNIX/X apps.
IMO, Netscape on UNIX isn't too bad. It's big and kinda slow, and until
very recently would die on me much more than I expect from a UNIX tool,
but since I started using Navigator 4.08 it's been pretty stable. (I
tried 4.5 for a while, but the bookmark drag-n-drop is busted so I went
back to 4.08).

Standard ftp sessions requires two tcp connections:
* control from client to server
* data from server to client
Typical masquerading does not handle it.
AFAIK you have two options:
1) use ftp client which can handle passive option
(both connections from client to server)
2) use ftp masquerading module.

nmh works well, set its showmimeproc to metamail, and add an
entry to your mailcap that starts lynx on it.
Alternatively, you could tell people to quit sending you HTML

No, your nameserver is set up as caching (unless you specifically
set it not to be), and you'll get better performance since queries
for cached sites will just go over the network rather than through the
phoneline.

You may find it will work if you make the samba box the prefferred local
master browser. I had a similar problem and that rectified it.
Alternatively, youw could read the BROWSING.txt file that is in the samba
docs, for remote announce and things like that :)

Date: Wed, 16 Jun 1999 20:14:03 +0200
I have installed Samba and it's runs fine.
My problem is this, I have created a map called let's say Public and I have
created users that are members of the group test.
I set the rights like this:
# chown myuser:test /home/public
# chmod 2770 /home/public
Now all my users in the group test should be able to create files and the
files will be owned and accessed by the group test. Well it's here it all
goes wrong. The user who creates the file is the owner and all the other
members can only read the file but not write to the file. How can I fix this
so all the mebers in the group can read/write files independent on who's the
original owner. I really want to share the files with the members in the
group. Anyone got an idea of to solve this (simple) problem? /Martin

I think you misunderstand the use of the REDIRECT keyword.
REDIRECT is used to redirect from one port of the firewall to another
port on the SAME machine
For example: I use a REDIRECT to redirect port 55555 to port 23, so I
can telnet to my firewall (my ISP blocks all incoming messages below
port 1024 :-( )
For this I use:
ipchains -I input -p tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d la.la.la.la 55555 -j REDIRECT
23
(la.la.la.la is the local adres, the firewall's adres visible from the
outside of the firewall)
I also use a portforwarding of port 55556 of the firewall to port 23 of
a machine behind the firewall.
To do this you need (for a 2.2.x kernel, preferably the new 2.2.10, I
believe the 2.2.9 has problems with forwarding) the ipmasqadm utility
(http://juanjox.kernelnotes.org))
Command:
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L la.la.la.la 55556 -R ra.ra.ra.ra 23
(ra.ra.ra.ra is the adres of the machine you are redirecting to)
I hope this can help you solving the problem

Well, the changes may be specifically designed to allow the system to
perform much better on that particular benchmark, but are useless at
best or very bad at worst for normal, day-to-day usage.
Compiler writers have a long and storied history of this kind of thing:
they like to write specific optimizations for well-known benchmarks so
their compilers look better in comparisons--but most benchmarks are
fairly poor at emulating real-life usage so these kinds of targeted
optimizations almost never result in any real code running faster.
Anyway, changing hardware microcode has nothing to do with the
performance of the OS: that gives a skewed result for the
benchmark... it's like running benchmarks on different hardware. The
comparison you want to make is between the operating systems themselves,
so everything else has to be as invariant as possible.

Use the guestgroup directive in /etc/ftpaccess
guestgroup groupname [groupname]
where groupname is a valid group in /etc/group will cause the ftp server
to chroot to the home directory of any user
of groupname ( man ftpaccess for more )
For this to work well, the home directory of your users should be
configured like an anonymous ftp directory ( man ftpd for more details )
If you don't make any change to their directories, they won't be able to
use ls
Hope this helps
