You could try manually loading driver using the following sequence
lsmod to see if driver is loaded
remove loaded module using MODPROBE -r driver.o
insmod /lib/modules/"version"/net/driver.o io=123,irq=2324,debug=3
etc...
then DMESG or look at /var/log/messages output
then do the ifconfig eth .... up et al thing.

Thanks for the answer!
I have a frame relay card for Linux and I would like to set up some
parameters remotelly like DLCIs, routes, firewall, etc through OpenView
(NetView also). Does linux have a SMNP server ? Is there a way to change
these parameters using the SMNP server ? I mean, given that the card does
not have a specific MIB can I create one for it and be able to use from a
OpenView's workstation ?

The problem you have probably comes from your compiler (at least the current

What if all the top X military and economic powers were all
in Europe? According to your definition a European War would
then become a world war.
But, let's go with your definition.
Q. When was the First World War?
A. Sometime in the Napoleonic Era.

Is there a way in Linux to automate a ftp session?
In <bad word> NT, you can issue 'ftp -s xxxx.txt ftp.myserver.com', where
xxxx.txt is a 'ftp script'.
i.e.
REM ftp script: xxxx.txt
user me
pass mypass
cd /pub/coolstuff
binary
lcd dwnload
get coolthing.exe
close
REM end of xxx.txt
'man ftp' doesn't mention a *script*

LAT is a protocoll that will "never" be implemented in Linux, since
digital still has the patents on it. So we need to pay to get these
specs.
But Most DEC Terminal servers will also work with TCP. What happens, is
that a terminal that you connect to the terminal server starts in a
telnet client application, then you type the hostname and the terminal
server will connect to that hosts it's telnetd and redirect any
input/output to the VT terminal
This way, you can telnet into a Linux box with VT terminals. Pretty
handy.
But LAT is not supported. And probably will never be.

In your NT server did you put the Linux DNS server in the DNS lookup fields
in the TCP/IP configuration?
Try setting it to the top! But your zone files look prettu good I must say.
And nslookup uses bind calls to check names!
And entering complete ip addresses in your reverssed lookup zone is'nt
handy. You can use 1 IN PTR oracle
that is plenty. (Just a tip, because you zone file already tell him that
you are talking about 192.168.200.x)

Subject: Re: Question on starting a local TCP/IP network
Date: Sat, 10 Jul 1999 16:36:56 +0200
If you wanna use ppp to connect people to a POP server, then you can use
pap to assign IP addresses either via dhcp or per username (the latter will
give the user a static ip addres).
If you want to give them complete ranges to connect several people than you
give them a subnet and they connect using a router to your router wich
routes traffic over the network. The more seperate networks you get the
more interfaces in your routers or more routers whatever you choose.
But be sure to use the test subnets 10.0.x.x or 192.168.x.x specially when
you think of adding internet gateways.
One lesson, see internets as local networks connected to each other then
you can solve technical/design and implementation problems easier.

Huh?!
Are you sure you have the DNS servers added to the top of the
/etc/resolv.conf file?

Try looking for dhcpd and dhcp client for Linux.
(Man pages and the HOWTO's also give alot of info).

You need a portforwarding package for this.
I don't know if PCAnyWheres protocoll uses several sockets simultaniously
like f.i IRC, and FTP do. If that is the case, then you need a masq module
otherwise you will be fine.
May I suggest rinetd for the protforwarding this is a good package is
stable and configuraring is easy. PORTFORWADING in the kernel is still
somewhat buggy.

Looks like an IRQ conflict!
Check your irq's in the proc dir if the nic's IRQ is shooting up than this
might idicate that you have a conflict.

Just adding the varaible will not enter the hostname in it automatically.
You should install also some kinda deamon.
A simple Perl script can do the trick also.
