Hi John, I did manage to see the Linux server after spending all of
rainy Sunday. I'll say what I think helped as I know I am not the only
poor fool trying this.
I think one needs the TCP/ip protocol activated on the NT machine
instead of netbui.
Make sure the ethernet card is active in networking control panel Linux.
You can ping the computer
Installed as Linux as Server, Red Hat Linux has Samba under linuxconf
Is not in Linux Workstation - one would have to add it somehow.
Samba needs you to start its services, see
samba help
samba start -starts smb services
use linuxconf, find Samba - I am told you need encrypted pasword turned
on probably a user matching up to who signed on on Windows
Once you can do that try to use the start button in NT, then find,
computer, the computer by ip number, then see if you can see the files
within.
I am here, for whatever reason my linux box is showing up in Network
neighbourhood as 192

Also 2 of 386 computers running a clipper program that I am told may run
under dosmeu or something like that and telnetting into the server.
Incidentally under xwindows what is the proper way to shut down - I read
control backspace but it only reboots the xwindow interface.

Hi there...
My new RH 6.0 (as opposed to an existing 5.2) installation persists in
only using about 2.3% of my 75mB swap space... any ideas? It's a
bog-standard 6.0 distribution - 2.2.5 kernel, XFree86 3.3.3, on a P-II
300 with 64mB ram. I'm no unix guru, so I've got no idea what could
be causing this - the only possible fix I can think of is to
re-compile the kernel, but I don't want to muck around with that
unless I know it should work...
Thanks,

Subject: Routing question
Date: Mon, 5 Jul 1999 17:12:14 +0800
I have the following setup:
- 1 Static IP number assigned to me when I dial-up (139.130.x.x Netmask
= 255.255.255.192)
- A range of real ip numbers assigned for my LAN
(y.y.y.228 - y.y.y.231
Netmask = 255.255.255.252
Network = y.y.y.228
Broadcast = y.y.y.231) - This gives me 2 hosts to
assign real IPs to
- A LAN with private ips 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.10
I have a Debian 2.1 box kernel 2.0.36 running ppp and ipmasquerading
successfully through the ppp
interface set to 139.130.x.x (above).
I would like to run a mail server so users can have: [EMAIL PROTECTED] but
the isp won't allow me to
set the static dialup ip (139.130.x.x) to map to "mydomain.com" in the dns -
this is the dial-up ip only - They
tell me I must use one of the real ip's - y.y.y.229 or y.y.y.230.
I would like to know how i can set up routing or forwarding or whatever it
takes to get machines on the LAN
to maintain the ip masquerading functionality whilst still be able to have
outside people send email to
mydomain.com mapped to y.y.y.229.
Currently:
It seems I have to get the ppp interface on 139.130.x.x to route traffic
through to the network y.y.y.228.
I have 2 NICs in the debian server at the moment - one set to 192.168.0.30
Netmask=255.255.255.0
on a LAN segment with other 192.168.0 PCs.
Another set to y.y.y.229 Netmask = 255.255.255.252 on another segment with
another potential host y.y.y.230

You should use your ISP mailserver as your smarthost instead of sending your

Subject: Stopping squid proxying real audio
Date: 5 Jul 1999 18:11:09 +0800
A user of our linux gateway has taken to hogging bandwidth of our little 64k ISDN line
by playing RealAudio stuff. I've stopped his access to normal real audio by
configuring ipchains to disallow his machine access to port 7070 on any other computer
(We're running masquerading).
Server stats: Redhat 5.2, bog standard with masquerading, squid, apache, samba, mail
serving and a caching dns. It sits between our internal ethernet network
(192.168.0.*) and a cisco router connected to our ISP.
Trouble is that he's now using our squid proxy server to obtain access to some sites
that allow http real audio.
How do I stop that ? I see that squid.conf allows blocking of certain requests based
on things like ip address, protocol type etc. using a combination of "acl" and
"http_access" commands, however I don't see how it can stop real audio requests. The
squid access.log file contains the following lines which are his real audio sessions
(upstream provider name deleted to protect the innocent):

I would think that I could stop it by disallowing any request which has
"audio/x-pn-realaudio" in it. But I don't know how.
I'd also prefer to block real audio for only this particular user (192.168.0.14), but
I think that I can handle that part.
Another problem:
I think that even if I stop squid proxying real audio, due to my masquerading set up
he could just forget about squid altogether and go directly to these http real audio
sites.
Aside from forcing him to use squid for all web stuff (by blocking port 80 from
masquerading from his machine using ipchains) is there any way to stop real audio in
this instance ?
Are there any other back doors by which he would be able to access real audio which I
should consider ?
He's not particularly bright, so I'll only ask about those methods which involve
playing with the config screen on the real audio player.
I know that I could just tell him to stop using real audio, or even delete the client
from his computer, or get him fired, but I'm looking for a technical solution on
Linux, mostly because I'm interested in learning.
Thanks.

Date: Mon, 05 Jul 1999 08:38:56 GMT
Good morning,
i recently set up my linux box to act as a router in my home network
and from about that time i have had some trouble getting on line with my
isp. It seems that when the isp is busy (read: at night or on the
weekend) instead of giving me an ip address from its pool, my modem is
assigned the ip address of one of the network cards in the same box. (i
do my surfing on my routing linux box). My isp uses numbers in the
206.172.167.0 range and my local numbers are 10.32.0.1, 10.64.0.1, and
10.10.10.2. The last of these is the one that my modem is always
assigned when things go awry. If i try surfing early in the morning
then i get on without a problem, and if i keep trying during a busy time
i am eventually assigned a proper address, but sometimes it can take 10
attempts.
Anyone with an idea??
thanks,

Subject: Redhat 6.0 Disk Quota fail
Date: Mon, 5 Jul 1999 19:57:16 +0800
Dear guys,
I got a problem in RedHat 6.0 with diskquota enabled that cause the system
unable to authenticate the "su" login.
Descriptions:
1. Custom Installation without any error reported. All services running
normally.
2. Remote telnet to Linux machine
3. "su" as root
4. modified /etc/fstab to enable disk quota support
/dev/hda8 /home ext2 defaults,usrquota
1 2
5. on the /dev/hda8 partition, touch quota.user
6. quotaon
The problem reported is: invalid arguement
7. edquota [username]
after entering some quota info for a particular user, no error for quotaon
command
8. quotacheck -a
After running a few minutes, no response from the computer and the telnet
session died.
9. Open another telnet session as normal user to that computer
ps ax, shows the following
665 ? DW 0:08 [quotacheck]
10. "su" as root
after entering the password, no response
11. open another telnet session and enter "ps ax" shows
698 pts/2 D 0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth list :0
Problems:
1. When there are no info entered in quota.user, quotaon reports "invalid
argument"
2. Cannot kill the above mentioned jobs (665 , 698)
3. "reboot" cannot makes the system come back (commands were enter from
telnet session)
I had tried to do the above steps on console, and see it is died during
unmounting "/dev/pts" which reports "device is busy"
because I cannot kill the died job, so cannot unmount /dev/pts, such that I
need to power off the computer to reboot.
4. After rebooting, "su" has no problem from telnet session, but everytime i
run quotacheck,repquota, the above problems repeated.
The following packages were updated from updates.redhat.com
dev-2.7.7-2.i386.rpm
rxvt-2.6.0-2.i386.rpm
screen-3.7.6-9.i386.rpm
utempter-0.5-2.i386.rpm
net-tools-1.52-2.i386.rpm
Any idea to fix this problem?

Still not enough info. Since DHCP is totally different between NetWare 4.x
and NetWare 5, I can't help you much without knowing what version of
NetWare you're using. If you're trying to login to NetWare from the Linux
box, I can't help. As for the Win 98 box, you can login to NetWare via IP
in two different ways, depending on the version of NetWare - or not at all,
depending on the version of NetWare.
More info will allow us to guide you, but I won't be much help on the Linux
box.

As i already told you by mail ;-) i *strongly* suggest downloading and=20=
using StarOffice *5.1* instead of that old 5.0 version.
This is not (better: not only) because i want to push our newest=20
product but mainly because of the fact that=20
StarOffice 5.1 contains *a lot* of bugfixes and some very
useful new features. Information about what has been
changed from 5.0 to 5.1 release have been published in a
little What's new Guide to be downloaded from here:
ftp://ftp.stardivision.com/pub/support/so51/doc/wnew01.pdf
( file's size is 1934 KB )
Concerning detailed information on StarSchedule and StarSchedule=20
Server please have a look at pages 83 to 92 -- the information given=20=
there is far much better than anything i could tell you here.

Karl-Heinz

Subject: NIS security enhancer ???
Date: 4 Jul 1999 17:30:50 GMT
Hi , I was wondering about security today.I saw some people forcing the
password file and that started to make me think a little.I was wondering if
it would be to my advantage to install a NIS server.I have one firewall
that is protecting 2 other linux boxes.I was think of setting up NIS on the
main server behind the firewall.I worried tho because I have the intention
to setup Samba on that server and hope that it will be a problem.Anybody
have any suggestions ?
Sincerely,
Andre Giordano

Since eth0 and eth1 have the same IP number, box A is not able to route between
them. So, the reply from the gateway will not pass box A. You can create a
small subnet at the side of box B and tell the gateway to use eth0 at box A for
forwarding to box B.
