Hello,
I'm trying to setup a Dlink DE220PT 10BaseT ISA card in Redhat Linux 5.2
and I don't seem to be able to use the NE2000 driver as you've descibed
in your post. The installation program reports that it's "unable to find
the hardware anywhere in your system". I've used the D-link setup
program to turn off the PnP feature, and to set the IRQ and Base I/O
values but still, the installation program fails to detect my card.
Could you tell me how you managed to get your card to work? Thanks a
lot.
Devon.

Hi!
I am using a chat server called "Mark Morley's chatMUD" which is an old
program. I cannot find the source anywhere. If you know where to find the
source of this chatMUD, or source of any program doing the same thing (a
chat server, connect from a telnet / MUD client, have rooms, have emote),
would you please let me know?
Thank you.

Date: Sat, 19 Jun 1999 07:16:51 GMT
If the windows boxes are on the same subnet as the internal interface
of the linux box, you'll need to set the default gateway for the
windows boxes to the address of the internal interface of the linux
box. (was that redundant? redundant?) anyway, that way all packets not
destined for the local LAN will be sent to the linux box which will
then forward them. I'm not real sure about the proxying capabilities
of linux yet, but if it's possible to run an http proxy on linux, you
could set the browser on the windows boxes to use the linux box as a
proxy.

I'm setting up a 15-node LAN (which has to have room to grow to 25 or so),
and I'm looking for some "theme" to name each node. Here is a list of the
themes being considered so far:
colors (red, blue, green)
cigars (padron, macanudo, cohiba)
composers (bach, brahms, wagner)
artists (degas, picasso, renoir)
writers (falkner, hemmingway, joyce)
poets (shelley, burns, shakespeare)
countries (mexico, iran, armenia)
US states (nebraska, alabama, oregon)
world cities (paris, london, rio)
US state capitals (sacramento, albany, atlanta)
rivers (amazon, nile, yukon)
soft drinks (coke, pepsi, sprite)
US beer (coors, miller, bud)
clothes (hat, shoe, shirt)
I'm trying to find a theme that is CREATIVE, FUN, EASY (to spell and
remember), and there must be at least 20 names available. Any ideas?
Thanks
