Big Fish,
Try moving /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny to a different name and
then try telnetting in again. To configure em specifically look at man
hosts_access

Hi there.

the most important service which is running on the NT Server is the
Microsoft Proxy running as WinSock Proxy .. is there anything on the

Hello Jason
I've had the same symptom, also on a RH5.2.
I tried to use the NE2000 driver on my NIC, with exactly the same
experience as you.
Then I tried to use the NE2KPCI-driver and _viola_ suddenly everything
was working smoothly.
So, you don't use the correct driver. Try searching the web to find out
what chipset is used on your NIC and then find out the correct
Linux-driver.
Hope you can use this

Try making sure that you have the following line in your /etc/inetd.conf
file:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a
If not enter it in or un-remark the line (ie. get rid of the # in at the
start of the line) and hangup the inetd process.
This should work if the ftp program is present in the standard directory in
the RedHat distribution. Otherwise you might not have added the ftpd
package. ftpd would be standard with RedHat Linux.

I did not get this one, sorry.
Imagine you are sitting in front of a monitor
displaying the standard linux X console (a small
window asking you for your username and password,
placed on top of a black and white bitmap pattern
as background -- by the way, I _hate_ that bitmap;
how can I change it? not just in my window manager
session, but for the whole system/console/etc).
Now you type in your username and password, and
log into the system. You will probably get an
xterm (or else you may ask one to the window
manager) and may start working. Then you may type
'finger' and (to your surprise) "find out" that you
are not logged in (same with 'who', or 'last').
In general, one should not expect that a user
(especially some hacker :) starts a new window
with 'xterm -l' or so...
What I need is a way to register/know that a
username and a password (either right or wrong)
were entered into the console.

If by this last you mean that you have boards with chips marked "DEC,"
"PNIC," and "Linksys," the ones that are marked "Linksys" are really PNIC
chips -- check your kernel startup messages for confirmation of this.

Most people with PNIC-based boards report that the 0.89H driver does
*NOT* work with their boards, or works unreliably. Some people (like
you) report that it DOES work with their boards. It's conceivable that
there's an interaction between the PNIC chipset and some other hardware
component, or that it's a matter of how the BIOS configures the board
(what IRQ it's given, for instance). I suppose it's also possible that
there are different revisions of the PNIC chipset, or of other components
on the boards, and that some work with 0.89H and others don't.
In any event, Red Hat 6.0 ships with the 0.89H driver, so in theory you
should see no change in network card compatibility if/when you upgrade.
If you do, you can get an updated tulip.c file from
http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/tulip-devel.html, drop it into
your kernel source tree in drivers/net, and recompile the kernel or
modules to get it to work.

You don't. While some people have reported an inability to get some Tulip
clones working with Linux even with updated drivers, I've not seen such
reports for the Linksys boards, and in fact I've got one in one of my
systems and it works fine with the updated drivers (I'm using 0.90q, but
there are more recent files than that available now).

It is conceivable that the ROM version on the board has something to do
with compatibility with the older Linux drivers, but I can't say for
certain.

The filesystems are exported from a Sun running Solaris 2.6, on the client

Subject: Multiple Linux Mail Servers
Date: Wed, 23 Jun 1999 14:02:54 +0100
Hi
I want to set up internal/external e-mail in a company at low cost.
This is my current train of thought.
We are in the process of obtaining a suitable domain name and will want to
create mail system when we have it. At the moment we are spread over four
sites and are all interconnected with TCP/IP (A Windows NT domain) using
ISDN2 and routers. What I have in my mind is to use Linux based mail servers
at each site of which one (at head office) would act as the gateway to the
Internet. This gateway would dial an ISP every 15 minutes or so during the
day and upload/download external Internet mail. This gateway would also
distribute mail to the internal site based mail servers as needed. Each
desktop user's PC would use Outlook Express (or a similar reader) to check
for mail on their local Linux mail server
I am guessing that Linux using 'sendmail' to distribute mail & PPP to talk
to the ISP will cope with this scenario but I could do with a few pointers
to 'HOWTOs' etc. to get me underway.
Thanks
Neil

You pose two problems: figuring out which services you need to allow (at
all),
and figuring out what rules to give to ipfwadm, so that it can filter
packets (and
masquerade the ones that *ought* to traverse the firewall. I would second
the
suggestion of using
http://members.home.net/ipmasq/
as a guide to getting set up.
Once you get things going sort of, you may find that some particular service
doesn't work right. To find out what is needed but not permitted, once you
have a ruleset in place, you can put in some temporary rules to permit
everything, and log the packets that do not fit one of your other rules, so
that
you can figure out what is going on. A modest example set of command files
follows:
logall
=========================================================
#!/bin/bash
# Temporary tcp packet rules (recorded in /var/log/messages)
# These commands insert rules to accept all packets not previously
# matched, and to log info about them. This could well be
# a security breach, so a companion script is used to remove
# the rules when we are done with testing.
/sbin/ipfwadm -I -a accept -o -P tcp
/sbin/ipfwadm -O -a accept -o -P tcp
=========================================================
dellogall
=========================================================
#!/bin/bash
# Temporary tcp packet rules (recorded in /var/log/messages)
# These commands insert rules to accept all packets not previously
# matched, and to log info about them. This could well be
# a security breach, so a companion script is used to remove

If you are referring to the NE2KPCI driver that is included with RH

autoprobe. I also tried every other driver w/ autoprobe hopeing for a

Only caveat I know of is the 95bugfix option in the kernel setup.
They kernel proggers wrote a work-around for a '95 timestamp problem
in smbmounted file/dirs. It iscalled Win95bugfix in the kernel
options. It worked! except that when enabled it will now trash the
stamps on 98/NT files. So look real close at this since you will be
mixing 95/98/NT machines. Might pay to contact SAMBA.org or someone
on the kernel team and see what the status of that thing is.

I get the kernel panic "neighbor table overflow" when I try to connect to
any TCP services on my linux box! Does any one know what this means? Also I
get a message
Eth0: Rx mode set to 1

Thanks in advance.
