Yes, taht is what the documentation says it will do. You have a few

But are you actually getting debug output? You have to tell syslog
where to put the output ( eg a line like
daemon.* /var/log/messages
in /etc/syslog.conf and then run killall -1 syslogd
(note that kdebug is very
rarely useful and clutters up the log files. Do not post with kdebug
unless asked to.)

I did not mean releases of the compiler, or releases of the standard
library, both of which break binary-compatibility but will stabilize,
eventually.
I meant releases of other libraries. Any time you change the layout
of a struct, or (e.g.) add a new virtual function in a base class,
you risk breaking code that depends on the library. The same is true
with C libraries, but C lacks some of the language features that create
a dependency, and people already know about those which do.
It is possible to build C++ libraries that are safe for old program
binaries to link to, but it's harder. For example, you have to be
very careful about what inline functions and virtual functions you
expose in the public interface, and be sure not to change anything
between releases that those interfaces depend on.
This is a maturity issue. As people become aware of the problems,
they arrive at the same solution.

I suspect that you did not really close your connection. Ie, a ppp0
connection was left up.
When you close your connection check to see if a pppd is still running
(ps aux|grep pppd)
and use ifconfig to see if ppp0 is still up
ifconfig
and look for a ppp0 link

The error message certainly sounds like the one that you get when the

It's just to appease the American public. Just like the
Second World War went from 1941 (when the Americans joined)
to 1945. What was it before that? A bun fight?

We've had the Ministry of Truth for quite a while. Notice
how it's called "education". In the old days it was called
propaganda.
The old days were a lot more honest in the language than we
are now - in a lot of ways.

Subject: change TcpWindowSize ?
Date: Sat, 26 Jun 1999 18:07:58 GMT
On my NT machine, I read about how I can improve my TCP/IP network
performance by changing the MTU size and TcpWindowSize. The changes I
made actually tripled my network performance! Now I'd like to do the
same to my Linux machine, if possible.
I did find out how to change the MTU from within ifconfig, but I'm
wondering if it's possible to change the TcpWindowSize on Linux. Is
it even necessary to modify these settings?
Also, any good URL's for info like this?

An even 'simpler' 386 w/ 4Mb Ram and 40M + sizeof(spoolspace_needed) HD

No. The theory is that

array.pushback(vec);
is easier for a beginner to handle than
int nelems;
float *vec;
float **newarray = realloc(array, ((nelems+1) * M) * sizeof(float));

This theory is correct.

Subject: Re: Gaming over a shared internet connection?
Date: Sat, 26 Jun 1999 10:51:07 -0700
I am currently doing this. I have an old Gateway P5-200MMX as my Linux
server/IP Masquerader. There are 2 Celeron 400 Win98 PCs connected to a
10/100 hub which is also connected to one of the two lan cards in the Linux
PC. The second lan card is attached to a DSL 'modem' setup for 384K/384K
speeds.
I am running RH 5.2 straight out of the box, though I recently downloaded
most of the upgrades for 5.2 from the RH support site. I am using IPFWADM
for masquerading and it seems to work just fine. I play mostly EQ which is a
FP 3D role playing online game. There is occasional lag but it is never due
to the local private network or the Linux box. It is usually either the game
server or heavy internet traffic between you and the game server.
I was able to scavenge most of the parts for the Linux server. Gateway
contriubted a motherboard and processor. I had kept the original Matrox card
when I upgraded to a 3Dfx Banshee video card. The Banshee was moved to my
new PC and the Millenium is working just great with Linux and X Windows. The
lan cards are Linksys 10/100 PCI cards. The hub is also a Linksys that
supports either 10 or 100 Mbps on a per port basis. The Windows PCs also use
Linksys 10/100 lan cards. I bought a cheap 15" CTX monitor for the Linux
server and moved the 17" over to the new PC.
I basically followed the HOWTOs on networking and IP Masquerading. I am not
using Samba to share files between Linux and Windows, but I am using IPX on
the local net to share between the Windows PCs. I also have ftp setup across
the local net so I can easily move files from the Linux box to the Win PCs.
With this setup I can surf the net from any of the 3 machines. I can read
email, news or browse web sites. The Linux box also keeps my Win PCs private
from the internet.
All in all I would say it's a pretty clean setup. I didn't have any real
problems, but I would recommend that you read up on all the details before
you jump into it. There are many factors to consider and many ways to shoot
yourself in the foot.
Good luck to you.
Cheers

Hello,
I don't understand the purpose of the second net card. Looks like the first
card is on the subneted part of the network on which your second card is.
But in general what is exactly your problem?

Hi Andrey,
I have tow ethernet cards because one is supposed to be for the LAN and the
other is to connect the Cisco router. I currently have the router hub
connected to the hub which is only temporary. I want the router to be
connected to the Linux machine and use IP masquerading and a firewall.
I cant get the Linux box to work on the internet with DSL.
I am really new at this and have tried everything. I would think with the
router connected to the eth0 card, I should be able to ping the router at
10.0.0.1 or .2. But I cat seem to do it. I am a little lost on what to put
on the routing portion of netcfg.
Thanks for the reply.

They use NAT (network address translation). Your router has Nat software
running on it so when somebody is trying to get to your web server, router
knows to redirect the request to your internal server using Nat map (uses
MAC address and works on lower level of network communications then TCP/IP).
This approach is used in many networks now days due to the shortage of real
IP addresses and security issues.
Good luck!

Configuration below is quite frequent:
When ppp connection is finished its number is given to free
ppp devices pool. If the pool is not empty you get highest
device number from the pool.
AFAIK redhat 5.0 multi ppp support has some "random features"
e.g. if you configure your default route via ppp0
than if you have anytime more than one ppp device active
you have big chance that "logical" ppp0 (in configuration
files) will be run on "system" ppp1 but default route will
be added for "system" ppp0 :-)
I had to fix it myself in my startup scripts.

Nonsense. If you think Dylan is as fast as C++, you really
don't know C++ at all, and should know better than to compare
