Hi all,
My friend is having problems setting up his DNS name server. Below
are all the files. The first is the actual error from nslookup.
Could someone with more knowlegde of the subject look at these files
and try find any errors that may be present. He is trying to setup a
prmary nameserver for the Internet. I know he'd appreciate, him being
my boss and all. Thanks in advance.

Subject: apache directories

Reply-To: "Ashwin K. Raj" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I installed Apache 1.3.6 (accompanying Slackware 3.9). I notice someting
strange...
A perl script that generates a html page with some output, also contains
an url link. the link is to a html page in the </WWW/httpd/htdocs>
directory where all the other html files are placed. The perl scripts are
in the </WWW/httpd/cgi-bin> directory. The index.html and all other pages
are loaded correctly, but only the html page generated by a perl script is
not passing the right url to the output.
the part in the perl script looks like this:
print "<A HREF=\"continue.html\" TARGET=\"window\">Home</A>";
so, this is an url in the generated page. But when I click on this url, it
is looking for <continue.html> in the </WWW/httpd/cgi-bin/cgi-bin>
directory. Why is this? The corresponding parts of the <httpd.conf> file
is something like this:
DocumentRoot /WWW/httpd/htdocs
ServerRoot /WWW/httpd
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /WWW/httpd/cgi-bin/
<Directory /WWW/httpd/cgi-bin>
...
...
</Directory>
Please tell me why it is looking into the cgi-bin for an existing
<continue.html> when I have the DocumentRoot set to </WWW/httpd/htdocs>.
Isin't it independednt of the perl script's location? If not, how do I
make a perl script generate an url for a document in the
</WWW/httpd/htdocs> directory?
I will be earnestly looking for someone's help on this. Thanks a lot!

Dont know about ringconnectd, but xringd is capable of pretty
complex "sequence detection" - like 3 rings, then 30-60 seconds
silence, then 1 ring, then at least 30 seconds silence, etc.
I have used this in the past to make the computer do different

When I ftp files from linux to Windows I attain a speed of about
526kbytes/sec. If I have a 10Mb/s ethernet card, isn't this about half of
what I should experience? I am not a networking expert, so if this

I just got this working, and my ISP uses the same 3Com device. I don't
remember the exact config files (and I'm at work where I'm safe from Linux)
but I believe they are these in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/:
pap-secrets
chat-ppp0
ifcfg-ppp0
If you use netcfg from within X-windows, go to the Communications tab and
make sure there are NO Send or Expect strings. Then go to the PAP or CHAP or
CHAT tab (memory again) and enter your username and password there. For
PAP/CHAP authentication to work, the transaction goes on in binary, not as a
text exchange.

One thing to check is whether or not you included crtscts as a pppd

I had the same problem behavior. I added the option 'novj' to my

in the "ppp-opts" line. Two different ISPs in my area fail to cope well with
("Van Jacobsen") IP header compression. GoFig. Of course your issue may be
entirely different.

Date: Mon, 19 Jul 1999 13:54:27 -0400
Samba is a server program for Linux that provides Simple Message Block
services on the Linux machine. SMB is one protocol used in Windows networks
(NT/95/3.11). This allows the Linux box to appear, in many but not all ways,
to be a Windows NT server. For instance, it allows you to "share"
directories on the Linux box which will appear in the Windows Explorer
directory browsers, and to share Linux's printers as well. Linux + Samba can
currently perform some of NT's password validation and maintenance services.
To what extent is still not clear to me (I've read the docs!) and I'm
experimenting to find out.

The modems at either end negotiate the bonding. There may be an AT command
to select "Multilink PPP" (this is the case on my AdTran Ethernet Express).
For the AdTran there are also several 'S' register settings to allow
dynamically bringing up the second B channel. Depending on your modem and
telco, you may have to provide the phone number to the modem in the form
<channel A number>&<channel B number>. The 3COM Office Connect LanModem has
a Web-browser-based setup where you check a check box to enable single link,
multilink, or dynamic allocation. My impression is that most newer modems do
this more or less transparently.

Since installing RH 6.0, I've had similar problems with
/etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow. I copied these from my
previous RH 5.2 installation and found that ftp and telnet would
not work from (formerly) privileged hosts. If I comment out
everything (so that these files are effectively empty), all
services seem to work.
NFS mounts *are* working for me, even when telnet and ftp don't.

The easiest way to do it is to go to freshmeat.net and search for
"wvdial". Its very simple to use and should have you on the net in no
time.
