Hey Sam,

I don't know if I'm getting a really big performance hit.  Before I could
get upwards of 300 KB/s if I was lucky, and I don't see anything above 260
KB/s now.  I don't know if that is because of the IP masquerading or
because of circumstantial stuff.  I do notice that I'm getting a high
number of collisions on my hub, so there probably is some sort of
slowdown.

I agree that 2 network cards would be infinitely better, but alas, I can't
fit another one in.  I would if I could though.

bye.

Yes, I know.  As my message said, I installed imap (rpm -i imap*.rpm)
but I still don't have POP.  In 5.2, all you had to do was install
imap.  In 6.0 there is another step since a simple install won't work.
My question was, does anyone know what the extra step is after you
install imap?
Thanks.

I recently landed an internship for the fall semester. In this internship I
will be implementing HP openview on an HP-UX.

To get geared up for this I want to do some research before I get started. I
have found ucd-snmp tools available for linux which I could install and work
with on my home network,  but this would be very limited and I don;t know
how much I could gleen from it.

what I need to know is, where can I find screenshots of hp opnview on the
web. And is there an app that closely resembles hp - openview available for
free download that I could install on one of my home linux machines.

any help would be great

thanx in advance

If you have a default route set up to your loopback device you cannot connect to the

You might try

Yes.

Read dejanews on the posts in this newsgroup. Both pppd (part of most 
Linux releases) and diald (can get it somwhere on the net) can do 
autodialing on demand, so all you have to do is set up your 'worse' PC to 
use the 'better' PC as a gateway, set the better PC up as gateway (i.e. 
route all requests to the real world to ppp0, masquerade) and set up pppd 
or diald on the 'better' PC to autodial. Done (maybe a day's work).

You can also use the network configuration GUI that comes with RedHat 6.0
(and maybe others) to set up your ppp connections and it has the
autoreconnect feature.

Subject: password problems with samba and windows 98 clients
Date: Thu, 29 Jul 1999 05:28:57 GMT

A small 3 pc network, on a hub, 2 windows98 machines and my 5.2 RH machine,
I'm having trouble with getting the RH machine to allow the windows clients
to browse the share folders on the linux machine.

To date I have the following configured:

All pc's show in the network nieghborhood browse window. When accessing the
RH machine, it prompts me for a password, to log in to the RH machine. I was
told to edit the /etc/passwd file, and on the line of the file that contains
the login for the host requesting access add the NOPASSWORD text. Still is
not working, and after reading several HOWTO's, mini HOWTO's and HOWNOTTO's,
I'm thoroghly convinced that this is a difficult thing to configure.

Any assistance is *greatly* appreciated.

You bet, Jason. It works quite well. I'm a newbie too. I recently built a
Linux router set up to dial up our ISP to provide internet service to a
small network of Windows PCs. Recommend you have a look at HOWTOs and
miniHOWTOs (in /usr/doc/) on NET3, PPP. There's also one on setting up PPP
connections with your ISP. Also be sure to look at the mini-HOWTO on
IP-MASQUERADING; it is very well organized and written, and saved me a lot
of time. If you're using an older Linux distribution, suggest you get the
latest of these HOWTOs at metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/.

Good luck and enjoy.

I seem to remember that the bind manpage or the DNS howto said you can 
give the same name to multiple addresses and then bind will rotate

: If so, can DNS detect that a primary is down and therefore

Can the server detect that? I don't think so.

Can the client detect that a nameserver is not responding and use a 
secondary? Certainly, that's why the /etc/resolf.conf should contain at 
least 2 nameservers and these should be on different networks.

HELLO!

Can someone describe me how to create an own mailing list?
We have to make this for our local problem discussion.
We are students and living on the campus of the university.

So, please help me, if you can! Thank you very much!!!


I have installed redhat linux 6.0

I need only these features:

Subscribing someone to the mailing list when he/she writes a mail
with subject 'subscribe_me_please' to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(name is only an example).

And removes someones mail adress from the list if the subject
contains 'unsubscribe_me_please'.

The name of mailing list should be [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When this adress receives a mail it should be forward the
new mail to all subscribers (which have subscribed to to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Additionally I want to that all mails should be collected in 
a file for displaying on the webpage (because all the other
students, which do not subscribe, should still have the
possibility to read the stuff)

I have already created the 2 accounts, apache is running fine
and I have read something about 'procmail', but I don't know
where to start...


Again: Thanx a lot!

Look at your line in the html file  you have /cgi-bin/prog.cgi
Think about that, you do not HAVE a /cgi-bin/ directory you have a
/home/httpd/cgi-bin directory.   Either change your script so that you
can run the file local (which is what you are doing) or you will have
to set up Apache and alias the path, all of which is in the Apache

When you don't know the maufacturer and the card type the best idea

I'd like to use my office workstation (running Linux) as an internet
gateway for my home PC.  (My office computer is on a university campus
with speedy access, and I don't want to pay $20/month for an ISP for
home access).  Specifically, here's what I want to do:

>From my home PC (which is running Windows NT), connect to my office
workstation via modem.  Issue a command telling my office workstation to
call back my home computer (so any tolls are charged to my work account
instead of my home account).  With the connection established, run
programs like Netscape, Telnet, FTP, etc. on my home computer.
(Basically, I want the Linux machine in my office to function as a
dial-up ISP).

Can this be done?  How?  (Even a general answer would be fine.  Once I
figure out which programs to use -- e.g. mgetty -- I can figure out the
details.)
