I just switched to adsl, but I have problems with connecting to internet with ad

Here is my situation:
Connection to internet is made with a Virtual Private Network and PPTP to connec

Any suggestions are welcome,

You need to configure the socks service on the proxy server to allow that
client access.

The problem with this approach is that I woulp prefer to use BRU for
backups. While you can use BRU in the way yo use tar, it means that you
lose some of the builtin error-checking BRU does. It seems this solution
makes it impossible to verify the backup. I want to be 100% sure my
backup is ok.
Also I would prefer to initiate the backup from the dat-machine. Would
that be possible using something like:
ssh remote-host tar /filesystem-name | dd bs=10240 of=/dev/st0

Try to find alt.satellite.direcpc if you can -- little technical info, but a
several angry DPC users venting steam. Unfortunately I never saw it until
AFTER I signed up.
I couldn't get Helius (THE third party package) to work on my Linux box, but
I don't blame them -- NT wouldn't recognize the DPC card either, and half
the time Win9x won't. It is VERY flaky. Spit-and-baling-wire flaky.
They've done away with their "all day / all night" plans altogether, so
"affordable" has gone out the window as far as new users go (I'm
grandfathered on a plan no longer offered).
And to discourage pigginess, they have what they call a "Fair Access Policy"
that throttles downloads to modem speed or less once you've downloaded more
than XYZ bytes in a session -- and they will NOT tell you what "XYZ" is. I
understand the reasoning; one user can easily suck up far more bandwidth
than he could possibly use for any reasonable purpose if they don't have
some sort of controls -- but they implemented it as a one-sided, we-don't-
have-to-explain-anything policy, and some of their older users filed a class
action suit against them as a result.
> I also don't know if DirecPC

It takes about ten seconds to ramp up to full speed on a download, as the
pipeline to their Net Op Center fills up and begins to stream onto the
satellite. Great for lengthy downloads (until you "get FAPped"); lousy for
telnet and absolutely worthless for gaming. X would not be a good use of
the bandwidth. Surfing and downloading are where it shines. I have to move
6MB files around for work, and it's perfect for downloading those -- it
ramps up smoothly to a meg a minute, I couldn't find a better solution. But
it's one-way, download only, of course. If you aren't pulling down large
files, you'll be wasting your money and going through a config nightmare for
nothing.
IMHO. YMMV. (But I'm right about this one.) I have the dish on a dedicated
Win98 box running NO apps, just DPC and Sygate. My other machines
(including the Linux box) have that box as their default gateway. That's
all it takes to make it work.
I have no idea what "Virtual ISDN" might be, but it sounds expensive as all
get out. Good luck!

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Dear Guys,
nsswitch reads to translate hostnames just by "files". host.conf too....
but
"route add -host anyhost dev anydev"
wants to talk to the name server..... I straced it... and it really
queries bind for anyhost and nothing more..... although libnss_files
gets loaded, afterwards libns_dns gets loaded.
"ping anyhost" does NOT behave like this... it just uses files as it
should.
Does anyone know why route always uses dns!? Is this a bug perhaps, or a
bug in the resolver.... this behavior appears only with route of SuSE
Linux -gt 6.0.
thank you so much in advance,
Dan

Sometime after that, there was a video card that was coded to blow

I have Pacbell ADSL. Quite happy with it. Down time is acceptable. They said
they don't support Linux, but what the heck, just put in the IP, netmask,
DNS , gateway numbers into the Linux box, and you'll be up and running in a
couple minutes. Just don't tell them you use Linux. But they do support
Unix.
BTW. Pacbell's web site now says it does not support NT either...
The ADSL line doesn't care if it's going to a Linux box or Windoze box. And
you don't even need their special version of browser or software to make it
work.
Just make sure that all the hardware you have are properly set up and
configured for Linux.

Don't use linuxconf? For some reason RH shipped a really flakey
configuration of linuxconf with 6.0. There are a lot of weirdnesses with
the service activity module ... I run squid, for example, and have it
checked as one of the services to run on bootup, but linuxconf always
wants to turn it off when I exit it. It does this with a lot of other
daemons too.

I would abandon the suseconfig and edit the Sendmail m4 files yourself.
That way you know that it should work, or why it isn't. relay IP
addresses or names normally belong in /etc/mail/relay-domains, or
something similar to that. Your version of Sendmail is old, newer
versions have better security and controls.

Which network card are you using? This screams out CPU Utilization.
Using a good bus-mastering Ethernet card (3Com, DEC Tulip, Intel
EtherExpress, etc) will all but negate the effect of the processor.
I'm able to fully saturate a 10BaseT network, and realize all the
speed of a T1, using a 100MHz K5 system with a 3Com Vortex.
(We routinely see 178K/sec pulling information down from a DS3
box 60 miles away.)

Are you SURE you get static IP with cable?
If you are sure. Then, read on.
First , find out if the domain you want is still available from
internic/networksolutions by doing a whois search.
Then, go to http://www.realdns.com/
Read EVERYTHING there. Copy their dns info, create an account. It's only
$2-5US per year,
then go to Network Solution http://networksolutions.net to register your
domain,
put in yourself as the admin/tech/billing contacts, then put in the dns
info you got from realdns.com,
and fill in all the necessary info, then send.
You'll be getting reply from Network Solutions almost immediately in
your email.
Just follow the instruction, and the process will be done in 2-3 days.

Search BUGTRAQ or ROOT-SHELL. It's possible that it's the customary
litening port of a backdoor (e.g. BackOrifice).

Have you try http://www.ssh.fi
I believe you can use the rpm package for Redhat as well.

Subject: 3c509 inverse operation?
Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 17:04:21 GMT
Finally got the system to see the 3c509b. When the
card is not active, I have a link light to the
hub, but can't see the adapter (eth0), in that I
can't ping it. Nor can ping the gateway, or
anything beyond the NIC to the network. When I
activate the card, the link light goes out, and I
can now ping the card (eth0). Of course, I can't
ping anything beyond it. ifconfig eth0 shows it
working, except for all the tx packets error out.
The card initializes properly, linux finds it,
binds the right IP to it, and assigns the correct
io and irq. Distro is RH 5.2 (Macmillan distro).
Machine is a HP Vectra VE 5/133 Series 3 machine
with 48MB Ram. NIC is a 3com 3c509b-c, Rev A,
Etherlink III card. I have set the correct IP
settings for domain; dns pri, sec, and
tert.;gateway; subnet mask; and IP. Broadcast is
the only setting I'm not sure about, although I
fail to see how that would affect turning the link
on and off. NextStep wm is running, and have gone
over the settings using netconfig and control
panel. I suspect I'm making a fundamental mistake,
although I don't know what. If it's in the net-3
or ethernet how-to, I've missed it. Thanks in
advance for any assistance.
