Don't you still need ypbind running on the NIS server, too, for yppasswd to
work in place of passwd? I don't like yppasswd becuase it is very
restrictive in password selection. Is there any configuration to make it
more "relaxed"?
Good luck.

Have you set domainname?
domainname <name_of_NIS_domain>
Just type domainname and see if it returns its string. If it is not set,
ypbind will not work.
You can have it set automagically upon reboot from the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
script by adding a line in the /etc/sysconfig/network file:
NISDOMAIN="name_of_NIS_domain"
Good luck.

all you have to configure is the network scripts to bring up the eth0...1...

and setup your routing
use ipfwadm out of the box, or off the cd, so you can read the ipmasq howto

headaches with it, and not a lot of help from RH. I just need some

To generate the smbpasswd file from your /etc/passwd file use the

It sounds like you don't have the networks configured correctly. Are you sure
that both machines have correct IP addresses and routes?
If so, you now have to tell the machine you are on that it can display X
sessions from other machines by typing "xhost +". This is not very secure as
it will allow anyone to start an X session on your display.
The more secure way is to type "xhost + HOSTNAME" where HOSTNAME is the
hostname of the remote machine (or IP address).
xhost can only be run by the user who owns the X server - whoever you logged
in as.

Do you have an ethernet card and modem? You might want to make sure that there
aren't two default routes that are conflicting.
Type /sbin/route as root from a terminal and see if there are two default
entries. If there are, one will be for ppp0 and one will be for eth0.
Type "/sbin/route dev default dev eth0"
This will remove the default route through your ethernet card and may help with
your problem.

In theory (I've never done it), you could install two NICs, plug them into the
same hub. They would both have different IP addresses. These two addresses
point to the same host in the DNS. When bind has multiple addresses for one
host it passes them out in a round robin fashion.
This, I imagine would serve to do some load balancing between the two NICs. I
don't really know how well this works in practice.
If this was a private exchange, just tell me to p**s off and keep my opinions
to myself.

First , are you using the KDE that came on the RH6.0 dist? If so, go to
kde.org and download the latest kppp (RH used pre 1.1 and kppp does not
work well). I had a very similar problem and that fixed mine up.
Second, if you want ot turn up debugging you can either add the debug
option to pppd or in syslog.conf add something like daemon.debug
/var/log/daemonlog. A quick look at the man pages for pppd and syslog.conf
should help on that.
hope it helps.

Have you added your client to the access control list for the "host"? In
other words from "my.computer.ext" have you typed "xhost +your.client" this
will enable the client to display something like xeyes on your Xserver. Try
"man xhost", it should clear things up a little.

Actually, in your /etc/rc.d/rc#.d directory (where # is probably 3 if you are
running a character based session and probably 5 if you are running X), there
may be a file called S15ypbind. The standard way of disabling is to rename it
to K15ypbind.
Before you rename it, type ./S15ypbind stop

Just went there and everything came up and worked. Seemed to be very
memory intensive (was real slow) though. Which brings a question, how
much RAM do you have and how much swap? Also another thing I have
noticed that can make NS crash sometimes is not having enough space on
the partition that NS is installed on. Which libc5 do you have? I used
to have a lot of problems with NS crashing a lot but since I've gotten
4.61 I can't remember it crashing ever.

I'm having a lot of trouble with 'pump' myself, but I'm somewhat of a
newbie, and I don't really know how to "hack" it so it uses dhcpcd. I
do have a version of dhcpcd that came with Red Hat 6.0, and I have
another version that comes from an older Red Hat distrib. Any info
would be appreciated. =]
