The sendmail daemon will try to do a reverse lookup on the IP address
you're connecting from when you first connect; make sure that the linux
box either has that IP address in its /etc/hosts file or can look it
up from DNS (try nslookup <ipaddress> from the command line).
sendmail may also be trying to look up its own name; you might be able to
speed that up by setting the Dj macro in /etc/sendmail.cf.

I recently set up my Samba server (RH 6.0) with multiple shares. I
found that the Win95 clients could NOT see the Samba server in Network
Neighborhood unless the workgroup names were identical. Also, when
you log on to Win95 machines, your logon name and password must be
identical to what the Samba server is expecting (i.e. you need to
enter the user names and passwords on the Samba server before you can
access any shares). Finally, to actually transfer files to those
shares, make sure the directory permissions is properly set so the
Win95 clients can transfer files to the shares.

Are you talking about Inetd or is there a daemon in there called Identd?
Unless you want to do telnets, ftps, or HTTP connections to your Linux box,
you can throw the whole inetd daemon out the window, but I doubt you want to
do that. As for identd, never heard of it.

Probably, yes. You'll need a gateway/firewall box to translate the
internal names to external ones, but that's a good idea for security
reasons anyway.
Also, I would suggest using 10.0.0.0-10.255.255.255 [written 10/8]
rather than 192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255 [written 192.168/16], because
the former will give you more room to "play" with numbering schemes.

That's entirely up to you. The internal IP address doesn't matter so
much as what it gets translated to by the aforementioned gateway box.
An example might be in order:
Internal IP address of webserver: 10.0.0.80
External IP address of webserver: 207.82.89.37
The translation would be provided by the gateway box, which would be
running a program called "natd" ["nat" stands for "Network Address
Translation", and the "d" stands for "Daemon", which is what such
programs are called in the UNIX world].
> Right now, Internic has our web address, which is hosted by Internic,
> as 207.82.89.37.
I'm a bit confused here... that IP address belongs to Exodus, not NSI
[formerly Internic.net]. In any event, the important part is where that
IP address gets routed. Does that IP go to a machine in your office, or
is the machine located elsewhere? If elsewhere, you'll need to change
the address to something you can control locally [your ISP should be
able to provide you with one]. If it's local, then that's the IP
address you'll tell natd to use for the external IP of your webserver.

If Tabnet owns any of the IP addresses, then yes.

There are numerous HOW-TO's on this subject, but the short answer is:
Turn off *everything* you don't need. Most Linux distributions
[unfortunately] have a lot of things turned on by default that really
shouldn't be, and this constitutes a major security hole.
> The final part of this that is screwing me up the most is the order in

I suggest setting up your firewall/gateway box *first*, getting that
secure and running smoothly, and then start bringing up other boxes
inside your LAN. The firewall will protect those boxes from [most]
attacks while you get them configured properly. Once you have your
network working correctly, and everything is [relatively] secure, *then*
I would worry about getting DNS switched over. This _will_ mean some
downtime for your site, but it will also mean that once everything is up
and running it should stay that way.

Subject: Basic network problem
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 1999 23:20:25 +0200
Hi!
I have some problems installing network on my redhat 6.0
First of all I should mention that Im a Linux dummie, I only had it
installed for 2 days and the only experience i have, is some UNIX 10 years
ago, so the solution could be pretty easy.
I installed my ethernet adapeter ETH0, with a NE driver as it is NE2000
compatible. Linux boots this device fine. But I am not sure if it is
working, as it's an old card, the IRQ and IO should be correct through.
The other network options I have set is:
IP:192.168.100.10
SUBNET:255.255.255.0
DEFAULT GATEWAY:192.168.100.1
On the ethernet there is a NT with IP 192.168.100.2 and the same subnet
mask, there is also a router witch gateway ip is set to 192.168.100.1
The NT and Router works fine, but I can't ping the Linux PC, altrough i can
see that some signals is getting through on the netcard.
When i ping from the linux, nothing happens, I can't even se some signals on
the netcard, and ifconfig reports a TX error for every time I started ping.
ifconfig also report "UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST", what does this mean?
Where have I gone wrong?
Thanks,
Ole Jakobsen

I most certainly do want telnet and ftp access, so I'm not going to turn
off inetd. (And httpd is not started by inetd at all.)

Thank you for your enlightening response.
(After further research, it looks like identd is used mainly by IRC, for
which I have no use; and sendmail, for which I do. Will turning it off
break mail transport? I'm reluctant to experiment, since the machine in
question is the company's Internet gateway.)

Subject: Non root dial problems
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 1999 21:06:49 GMT
I finally got Linux (RH5.2) up and running but I am having 2 problems
that I am looking for help on.
The first has to do with root and non root account. When I log in as
root and bring up the PPP connection (ifup ppp0) evverything is fine.
Basic testing shows I can browser, but the specific issue is this. I
can ping both by IP and my domain name. However if I leave the
connection up and log in as a non root user, I can ping by IP but not
by domain name. Is there a simple configuration issue I am missing, or
where should I look to find out why the names aren't resolving. Do the
non root users need certain privilegdes. I have the ppp0 adapter set
to allow other users to bring it up and down and that works fine but
no name resolution.
The second issue is this. When I run the install and configure my
internal ethernet network, I then can't get the PPP to work. But if i
set up the PC with no internl network and then set p the ppp, I can't
fihure out the steps to add in the support for the ethernet adapter. I
know that when I did the auto configure/install it said that my card
was tulip (??) any help or pointers again would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

If you call pppd, then it should create a lockfile called
LCK...ttyS3
in /var/lock . Mgetty watches over this directory (and the port) to see
whether another program wants to use the serial port. If your pppd version
doesn't create the lockfile there, you'll have to recompile the pppd
program from out of the sources (or get an updated pppd*rpm) .

Argh. Be aware that using /dev/modem is an ugly hack which should
be avoided wherever possible. Use the real device name (ttyS3)
instead. Hint: Check your /etc/inittab file. If you have setup mgetty
for using ttyS3 (instead of "modem"), then you'll see exactly the reason
for this advice... (you'll have mgetty watching over /dev/ttyS3 whereas pppd
opens /dev/modem and therefor creates a lockfile LCK...modem, which mgetty
will silently ignore).
[...]
>Others mention:
>lock not made: lock file exists
[...]
Probably a stale lockfile in either /var/lock or /var/spool/uucp
(depending from the compile-time settings from pppd) .

Someone recently posted a question looking for a script to connect to the
AOL from Linux machine. I tried to follow that post to no avail.
I know that the NetZero uses its proprietary dialup scheme using its own DUN
software (only for MS Windows platform), called netzero.exe. If a Linux
user subscribes to netzero, he must be either using wine to run the
netzero.exe or has a ppp script to connect to the netzero dialup server.
I am wondering if any Linux user out there does have a ppp script for
netzero dialup that can e-mail it to me.
Thanks.
