If that's the case, shouldn't your gateway be set to the card on the NT box
you're connected to, and not 10.15.16.1?
Or is it a bridge?

I have a network
1 Linux machine (red hat 6.0)
3 Windows machines (windows 98)
I want to connect the printer to my linux machine, the problem is.
How can I configure the Windows machines to print in that printer trough
the network??
If the server were windows, I can only set the path (//Comp name/printer
name)
but I have no idea how to find the path for the linux machine.

Subject: Mounting NTFS or FAT shares
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 1999 20:11:48 -0700
I currently have a network consisting of 2 NT servers and one Win95
client, and one Linux stand-alone. Eventually, I would like to run
Linux as my primary server, but since I'm new to Linux I have much to
learn before I make that leap.
As part of the learning process I am trying to setup my Linux
stand-alone as a client with access to several shared directories on my
primary server. I have perused several news groups and read one SAMBA
HOWT0, but seem to be missing something. I installed the SAMBA RPM that
came with my distribution (COL 2.2), but when I try to use "smbmount" I
get a "cannot find command" error.
The SAMBA version number is 2.0.3-0b.
Any assistance will be appreciated.

No. The difference is when and who deletes the file. With the -r switch,
the lpr command, which is running with YOUR uid/gid, attempts to delete
the file after doing the equivalent of a cp to the spool directory. If
you don't have write access to the file, the lpr says "can't delete"
because Linux know you don't have the proper permissions.
If the -r -s worked the way you wanted, then the lpd daemon, usually running
with uid 0 would attempt the delete. In this case, regardless of the owner,
the delete would work because uid 0 can delete anything regardless of owner.
Now as to how to delete the file after it has been printed. I have an
idea, but I can't test it. I don't have a Linux compatable printer, so
I can't print. But on the "lpr" command, there is a -m option. This
appears to make the lpd daemon send an email to the submitting user
when the printing is complete. I don't know what this message looks
like, but I would bet that you could read the mail with a program and
delete the file mentioned within it. I would look into this futher, but
as I said, I don't have a printer.
I hope this is of some use to you,

I recently got a high speed internet connection... I have four

It was recommended to me that I might use Windows98 SE on the Gateway
computer... So I set up Win98-SE... I then got one of my other
systems, over the network, that is also running Win98, to share this
internet connection... Next I set up my other computer wich is running
Mandrake Linux (worked perfectly) to also share this internet
connection... The problem lies with my last system... This system is
running Windows NT Workstation 4...
The question is short is: How can I have WinNT4 share the
internet
connection from my Win98-SE Gateway computer? (Step by step please)
Thanx for any help you can offer! =)

As a previous post implies, Windows can indeed network cheerfully with just
the TCP/IP protocol - the performance seems to be better than when we used
NetBEUI. There is a distinction between network protocol and network
operating system - the latter having to do with how computers advertise
their shared resources and authenticate potential users of them.

I haven't worked with Samba yet, but you don't need Samba to share the
cable modem link. I'm currently sharing my link without problems.
Check out http://www.cablemodeminfo.com/LinuxCableModem.html for some
info and links to other resources.
It's not that difficult, but please remember to ensure that you're
firewalling properly with Linux NOW. I've rejected connections from 4
countries in under 2 weeks, and my first unauthorized connection attempt
was less than 24 hours after I connected my cable modem up.

Among others I've played with this scenario long enough (mine's

installation.
RH recognizes the card for what the chip is, but DID NOT recognize
that it was a PCI card - and therefore did not setup up PCMCIA and
utilities during install. Once I'd done that - everything is fine !!
FWIW - the system here is:
RH6.0

Tulip driver version 0.89
It can be done !!

you need an .rhosts or hosts.equiv file. If you put it in your
subdirectory, you can log in without a password.
Doesn't have anything to do with the subnets (we use 10.1.1.x, 10.1.2.x,
192.168.1.x and real IPs) as that's your router's job to ensure they're
getting to the right address.
Look up .rhosts and hosts.equiv. Be careful with these, if someone
breaks one box, they've got them all.

Subject: Re: Using rcp and rsh on machines in different subnets
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 1999 22:44:44 -0700
Hello,
Each user that needs to be able to rlogin or rcp from one system to another
(no matter which subnet they are on, as long as they can reach each other)
has to have .rhosts file in their home directory (/home/user.rhosts) on the
target system.
Also you can configure /etc/hosts.equiv file on the target machine with the
host name of incoming machine.
Good luck!

Subject: Setting up Remote Access
Date: Sat, 24 Jul 1999 05:40:20 GMT
What is the best way to set up a remote dial-up service for a midsized
company? We have Linux servers we can use for Radius authentication, but we
need to select some type of remote access device no more than $15K. I read
PMIII's or Ascend MAX 40XX's may be a good fit, but I am not sure if that
would be the proper device to give our remote salesman PPP access to our
local Ethernet LAN.
