Thanks for your response, Andrzej.
You are correct, the sendmail daemon has them in it's own queue. here is a
sample line from "sendmail -bp":

Subject: Using ftp in windows to connect to linux
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 1999 16:54:22 +0200
I have 2 linux boxes and a win98 box. But when i try to connect with ftp
from windows to linux, windows comes up with a dial-up-window. When I cancel
i can't connect but at the moment i have a connection to internet the ftp
connects (the same for telnet).
I also have a gateway at the windows-box. Both linux computers uses it. Do i
have to change anything in the route.conf? Becaus the gateway must only be
used when i try to connect a internet-ip from linux. I also don't have a
dns-server for my LAN. Is this nessecary for good networking, and is it hard
to set up?

I have been trying to set SAMBA with win95/98 for the last two weeks and I
have put a lot of time toward this and the only thing I got was seeing the
share on the network neighbor icon. when I click on it I sill get prompted
with a password that is always wrong.
I changed the verification to 4 from 8, I changed the authentication on both
machine .. I tried every thing.. and did not work.
I understand that if I write a server instead of user that the password
will be verified on an NT machine of which I'm not connected to.
I also understand that some folks here have done that. If you have Caldera
2.2.5 and have got SAMBA to work on your system. Please email me with the
file. I would truly appreciate it. I also would like to know some
instruction on what file or command did you use to set up the machines...

Subject: mgetty for dial-in blocks outgoing traffic
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 1999 14:10:44 GMT
I am using RedHat5.2 (ppp 2.3.5).
I have successfully set up my Linux machine so I can connect to the
internet via a modem using ifup ppp0 and ifdown ppp0. It works well.
But I have been experimenting with dial-in access to my Linux machine,
from a remote Win95 client. This involved using something called
mgetty+sendfax to "watch" the modem port for incoming calls. It just
involved changing a line in my inittab and it worked first time!
Unfortunately, using mgetty for incoming calls has blown out my outgoing
ppp capability. I get the message that the system lacks kernel support
for ppp.
* Is it possible to use mgetty and ppp on the same serial port?
* I haven't "compiled" ppp into my kernel as far as I know. My
experiences before tinkering with mgetty led me to think that ppp worked
"out of the box" with RH5.2.
Any ideas? I know that this dial-in PPP server business can be
problematic.

Not to ask a stupid question but is the user your logging in part of
group FTP? Defined in the /home/ftp/etc/passwd file? You need to read
your ftp man's and make sure your user has access. It sounds like you
missed something along the way. Users do not have to be in ftp passwd
file as long as they are defined as part of ftp group and not
non-allowed via ftpaccess.

You could also try dialmon, a little program that talks to diald, and has lots
of clever functions built in to it. The Windows program sits in the system

Can't remeber the URL, but try an altavista search on it.

This should work fine. I just setup my linux box with 3 Win98 PCs hooked
up. The Linux box has a cablemodem attached via one ethernet card, and the
win98 boxes are all on a second ethernet card in the linux box. I have one
primary IP address assigned via the cablemodem and the other boxes can all
use the internet. I think you will have to install a ppp client on the
linux box (there is a post on this list that talks about that) and then you
should be able to subnetwork all the NT boxes easily. Check out
www.linux.org and look under support - there are a lot of HOW-TOs and
Mini-HOW-TOs that give good information on how to set those kind of things
up.

Subject: Leafnode problems
Date: 21 Jun 1999 20:30:57 +0200
Hi out there!
Tired of being online just to read news, I yesterday installed leafnode.
Compiling, configuring worked just fine. Also fetch semms to do what it
should, if you watch the syslog and the size of /var/spool/news.
When I subscribe to groups in netscape 4.08 I get the single article
leafnode sends as fake to get to know which usenet groups to download next
time. However, it stays the only one when I look at it after fetch got
the first group. I can easily read the news in /var/spool/news, so they are
there, but they just do not show up in netscape.
Checking rtin, there are less problems: It reports many 'bad overview
record (Date)' and '(References)' and adds more or less truncated hostnames
after them. After a while the article listing shows up and I can read
the messages just fine, but there is only a fraction of all articles listed.
I would try fetch -f, but not knowing if it helps, I dared not, because of the
cost and time needed. (We're talking comp.os.linux.* here...)
Any help is greatly appreciated...
Thanks,
Marc

I have read on newsgroups that there many people have problems with dhcpd
(client) for RG5.2. One persone says that the dchcpd library was written for
the newer 2.2 kernal and recomneds upgrading to the newer kernal. SOmeone else
wrote that the netmask must be 255.255.255.255 and it works. I have found that
when I configure my network with NetConfig and then look at my settings with
Linuxconf there are differences. I always doublecheck my NetCfg settings with
linuxconf. Seems since I did this my 2 NIC's have been functioning better. I am
using 2 3Com509b's and have downloaded and am using Donald Beclkers updated
3com drivers. (Very easy to do). I will test out my new settings (dhcpd) when
I get to work. If this doesn't work I will upgrade t the new kernal and use the
new RH6.0 tool called "pump". This includes dhcp+bootp.
Right now my first NIC will bot and get the dhcp IP and seem like it is okay.
But, if you try and ping it , you get nothing. I haven't fixed it yet but
hopefully a kernal upgrade or my use of linuxconf will fix it. Take care,

Reply-To: "Orhan I. KARSLIGIL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hi,
We have a two machine network with an NTServer (192.168.0.1) connected
to the cable modem and running Sygate and a Linux (RedHat 6.0) machine
(192.168.0.101) as client. Everything is configured fine and working
properly.
I want to connect to a unix box and run X-applications remotely. I can
telnet to the remote machine and using xhost I already gave permissions
to the X-clients on my machine, but I can not export my display. If I
telnet from the Linux machine, the remote unix box sees the external IP
address of the NTServer and of course does not recognize my Linux
machine as Xserver. How should I export my Display ?
(I am using setenv DISPLAY NTserver.real.IP:0 and it is not working
because of obvious reasons) Is there a way to configure Sygate aprules
so that I can send the Display to a spesific port of the NTserver so
that it is relayed to my machine?
Thanks,

hello,
have you tried going into network icon in control panel(on win98box)
clicking on file and printer sharing and checking both boxes???? then have
to hit ok and then ok again and click yes to restart.
i fought that on my linux/win98 hybrid network until it dawned on me three
hours later, also make sure hard drive on win98 is shared.
if this doesnt work i have another idea. so email me back if it doesnt

Subject: ftp problem
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 1999 20:46:10 +0200
I have 2 linux boxes and a win98 box. But when i try to connect with ftp
from windows to linux, windows comes up with a dial-up-window. When I cancel
i can't connect but at the moment i have a connection to internet the ftp
connects (the same for telnet).
I also have a gateway at the windows-box. Both linux computers uses it. Do i
have to change anything in the route.conf? Becaus the gateway must only be
used when i try to connect a internet-ip from linux. I also don't have a
dns-server for my LAN. Is this nessecary for good networking, and is it hard
to set up?

Subject: Routing problem with 5 NIC's !
Date: 21 Jun 1999 18:49:33 GMT
Hi !
Let me explain from the beginning:
I have a Linux box with 4 PCI NIC acting like a router to 4 sub-nets
(say 192.168.23.0, 1
Beleza, Yuri ? Tive um problema aqui na roteadora do ICB. Quem sabe vcs
ai do CRC me dao uma luz. Vou contar a historinha:
Nos temos aqui 4 sub-redes (150.164.23.0 , 150.164.24.0, 150.164.26.0 e
150.164.27.0 ). Estas 4 redes atualmente sao roteadas atraves de um
Linux-box com 4 placas PCI, de acordo com o esquema abaixo (cortei o
150.164 dos ip's para abreviar):
CECOM ------------------------ hub ------
(26.254) fibra otica |
| (26.1)
Linux (Slack 3.7 / Kernel 2.0.36)
(23.254)| (24.1)| (27.254)|
| | |
hub hub hub
O mais correto seria adicionar mais uma placa de rede ligada
direto na fibra, ficando a placa 26.1 apenas como um gateway desta rede,
certo ?
Pois eh, eu fiz isso, porem como nao tinha mais slots PCI, joguei uma
placa ISA. Entao defini as seguintes rotas:
route add -net 150.164.23.0 broadcast 255.255.255.0 eth0
route add -net 150.164.24.0 broadcast 255.255.255.0 eth1
route add -net 150.164.26.0 broadcast 255.255.255.0 eth2
route add -net 150.164.27.0 broadcast 255.255.255.0 eth3
estas ja existiam na configuracao anterior. A interface eth4 (26.5)
recebeu a fibra otica direto e eu substitui a rota default anterior para
duas rotas assim:
route add -host 150.164.26.254 eth4
route add default gw 150.164.26.254 metric 1
Parece tudo certo, nao eh ?
Logado na roteadora eu tenho acesso a toda a rede interna e externa.
Porem de maquinas de qualquer umas das 4 redes internas eu nao consigo
sair. Se eu "pingo" a outra ponta la no CECOM, 26.254, nao ha resposta,
embora um ping em 26.5 tenha sucesso ! O que vcs acham disso ? O unico
problema que pude imaginar seria a mistura de placas PCI e ISA ... Alguma
dica ?
Thanks,
Andre Minelli
