I read an article on colm or somewhere saying this is a bug
in Netscape and that trying Netscape 4.5 should work.
In other words, when you find a problem with a package under
Linux, try going BACKWARDS rather than FORWARDS (even though
this may appear to be counterintuitive [it isn't to me]).

Good luck,

Subject: mountd and nfsd via inetd
Date: Thu, 01 Jul 1999 02:44:38 GMT
Could somebody please share with me the settings in the services and
inetd files necessary to get mountd and nfsd running from inetd?
I found the inetd lines in the man pages, but the services file
doesn't have any entries for mount or nfs, so nothing's running.
What's puzzling to me is that (at least) mountd appears to use
different ports every time it runs. That would explain the absence of
entries in services. So how is it that the man pages indicate you can
still run mountd and nfsd in inetd?
What's more puzzling is that mountd and nfsd have to first register
with the portmapper before any calling program can use them. Well,
how can portmapper know about them if they are not running (and not
registered), as would be the case if they were to be called from
inetd?
For what it's worth, mountd and nfsd work just fine when run as
daemons during bootup.

To get Netscape on Linux working for receiving mail from your own
sendmail - go into edit preferences and select "movemail" instead of
pop3, imap, etc...
Use the POP3 or IMAP setting if you want to get mail from a remote host
(e.g. your ISP).
If you have your "own domain setup" (as Jim says) you want to use the
"movemail" setting on that system. If you get your mail at your ISP you
can either set Netscape to POP3/IMAP or use "fetchmail" to get your
mail from your ISP into your local system and then use NS's "movemail"
setting.
Jim wants his own linux box to serve mail to his various mail clients.
Elm and pine work because he's running them on box that's got sendmail
on it. To use Netscape and outlook on OTHER boxes on his LAN, he needs
to install a POP3 *SERVER* on the linux box.
Sendmail gets mail from
local clients (elm, pine) and
from remote clients (Netscape, Outlook) using a TCP socket
and sends forwards to the destination's sendmail.
Sendmail also accepts incomming mail from remote sendmails.
Sendmail does NOT go out and ask a remote system for incoming mail.
That's what "fetchmail" does.
Sendmail doesn't hold mail waiting for a remote client to come in and
get it.
That's what POP servers are for.

Hi there,
maybe one of you guys out there has an idea what to do:
I'm using a Linux-Machine together with an ELSA ISDN-Router and have now
encountered the problem that as soon as i had an Internet-Connect via the
ISDN-Router the Linux-Machine sends packets to adresses somehow related to the
browsed Website eg. have i browsed www.elsa.de, packets are send in periods of
aprox. 1min to elsa2.netzwerkdienste.de, or www.zdnet.com causes packets toi be
send to port 80 of X10.com (home automation site - they're placing ads on
zdnet). I have compiled ethereal and got it running and now do know that
src-port 1038 at my.machine.de is sending someting to dst-port 80 at xyz.com.
My question is for now : How can i figure out what process on my linux-machine
uses that src-port 10xx ??? Since this behaviour costs much money - it prevents
the ISDN-Router to "time-out" and the connection stands the whole 24hs.
Hope that was clearly enough - if not mail me :-)
P.S.: Maybe a trojan or something like that ? How to be sure ?
Thnx a lot - And more questions are right on the way :-)

I'd like the web server on 192.168.0.3 to be reachable from the
outside world at the static IP address assigned by the ISP. I've
heard it is possible to do this, but no one I've asked knows how, and
I haven't yet figured it out from reading HOWTOs and the ipfwadm
manpage.
Is this possible? If so, how?

Do you have Samba installed and running? It allows you to emulate MS Networking
on Linux. You should then be able to share the tape drive over the network and
mount it (using smbmount) from Linux.

Subject: Re: How can I setup a network with Win9x and Linux?
Date: Thu, 01 Jul 1999 04:48:37 GMT
This is going to be long...
You are right, you do need Samba, but you have a lot to decide. As far as a
basic setup, choose a workgroup/domain name and setup the Win9x computer to be
on that workgroup (it should be in the network control panel, under the I.D.
tab). Than edit your smb.conf (or if you have RH6, use linuxconf). I will
attach my smb.conf so you can see an example. You need to set the domain to be
equal to the one you specified on the Win9x machine. Make sure you enable
encrypted passwords, and add your shares.
Next, you need to setup user access. Create a user on your Linux machine that
is the same as the one you are using on your Win9x machine (ie lets say your
logon name is JDoe on you windows machine, add a user under linux called jdoe).
Login as root and type the following command:
smbpasswd -a jdoe
You will be prompted to set the password for your samba access. You should now
be able to view and use shares and drives on the Linux machine.
Seperate from all this stuff is some other power behind Samba. Samba can use
Linux to do just about anything a WindowsNT domain controller can do (ie run
logon scripts, do authentication, set policies, etc.) The smb.conf file has
options for domain control. If you don't have any WinNT domain controllers on
your network (not workstations or fileservers, just domain controllers) you can
try setting up Samba as a domain controller. Do not try if you already have
domain controllers, especially if you are part of a corporation. You can totaly
screw up which computer gets looked at for domain control if you setup Samba to
rule over NT.
I hope this stuff helps.

Date: Thu, 01 Jul 1999 03:44:17 GMT
I have two Linux boxes on a LAN. Both boxes used to be RedHat 5.2, running
one of the late 2.0.3x kernels. When both boxes were running 2.0.3x kernels,
FTP transfers between the two boxes would run anywhere from 400 KBytes/s
to 660 KBytes/s.
Now, I have installed one box with RedHat 6.0, running either a 2.2.5 or
2.2.10 kernel, with the latest net tools package installed. The best
I can get in FTP transfers, now, is about 24 KBytes/s.
What was broken in the 2.2.x kernel series to make this happen?
Any ideas?

That's a close call. I know I will get a bunch of people mad at me for
saying this, but NT is a great operating system, so is Linux. I think
you need to analyze what you want to get out of this system. If you
want web/ftp server or router or proxy servers, I would recoment Linux.
If your are looking for a file server, go NT. I could bet that NT might
run better or more effeciently than Linux on the multi-processors
because Linux isn't fully developed yet. It can support multiple
processors, but to get peak performance, you would probably have to do a
lot of kernel tweaking.

Why then not run a smaller, and not so difficult server like Xitami.
Check out iMatix hompage at www.imatix.com. Is all for free (open
source), and verry easy to setup. Works on both Windows, OS/2, Unix and
OpenVMS.

If you want a simple answer:
For telnet: just use the command "su -" (after you log in as a user), from
there you will be root.
For FTP: I cant make it simple... sorry
Hope this helps

You need to run named. If you are running RedHat, it may already be
installed. Your best source for info on setting it up is the DNS-HOWTO.
