You just have to add a line like
S0:3456:respawn:/sbin/getty ttyS0 DT9600 vt100
in your /etc/inittab and do a init q. It is assuming the fact taht you are
connecting the terminal to ttyS0 ( Com 1 ) and your terminal type is VT100
and speed is 9600 bps
Though tere are many other issues like getting the null modem cable right
etc. Things can get a bit too much in cable design depending on yor
terminal, like harware handshake etc. etc. For indepth details read
Serial-HOWTO.
Good luck !

Sendmail is a complex software. You have to do some reading to understand
it, though getting it work is just a matter of minutes because the
configuration files are almost readymade.
Read TCP/IP nutshell book from O'Reilly Associates to get an introduction to
Sendmail. Well there are more ORA books on just sendmail if you want to get
into it.
Good luck.

Subject: Re: Linux as router.

Yes.
I think it's a routing problem. The network looks sort of like
this:
*** internet <---> sprawl [192.168.0.1] <---+---> 192.168.0.0 network
|
|
[eth1:192.168.0.150] <--+
jump-gate [eth0:192.168.3.1] <--+
|
|
+---> 192.168.3.0 network
Now, if I put a static route into sprawl pointing at, say, my
machine [192.168.3.100] everything works as it should:
sprawl:~# route add 192.168.3.100 gw 192.168.0.150
But hand-coding routes to every potential host is obviously
less than ideal. However, when I try to simply add a net
route, I don't seem to be able to:
sprawl:~# route add -net 192.168.3.0 gw 192.168.0.150
SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument
Eh?
FWIW, sprawl is running RedHat 6, jump-gate is running Debian 2.1.
TIA!

It's not so much the ports as it is the PROTOCOLS. The most common
protocols do work with IP masquerading, at least when the client is on the
internal network and the server is on the Internet. (Going the other way
is MUCH trickier.) A few, such as some Internet telephony and video
protocols, don't work as of yet. I don't know if these protocols would
work any better with NAT, though.

No. It doesn't hurt to have DNS on your private network, but DNS requests
get masqueraded just like anything else, and so work fine.

Try:

> Is there a way to do this using extrenal DNS servers?
Just list their IP addresses as usual in the internal network computers'
"DNS computers" configuration fields.

This sounds like it could be the exact same problem we were
having with our Cobalt Qube 2 -- whatever method you are using to set
your general Unix password may not be setting the Samba password. If
you set your general password using the "passwd" command I wouldn't
expect it to -- some other utilities may set both at once, but might
be buggy, like the one on the Cobalt Qube 2.
Also, make sure your Samba is set up to accept encrypted
passwords (I don't know why this isn't the default, at least not in
Samba 1.9x).

If `ifconfig -a` doesn't list eth0 as a known device (even if it is down), then
you don't have the correct driver in your kernel. Just recompile with support
if that's the case.

After successfully installing Netware package in RH 6.0 and having it

However, network printing to HP4000 or HP 4x LaserJet did not seem to
work with drivers availabe in RH6. Only garbage characters were
printed out on so many pages of paper wasted. I called RH technical

Kevin,
Install lsof if you haven't already done so (If you don't know where
to get it, do a search for it at http://news.freshmeat.net). Then issue
the command, "lsof -i". Look for this line:
lpd 75 root 5u inet 57 TCP *:printer (LISTEN)
If you don't have it, then it means "lpd" isn't listening on port 515.
Kill it and restart it with this command:
/usr/sbin/lpd 515
Now, try printing from your DGUX machine. Good luck!

Subject: DHCP and detecting IP changes
Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 23:43:02 -0400
Some DHCP questions:
1) When you're using a DHCP client to get an IP address, and you're
re-assigned a new IP address, what happens to networked applications
that are already running? Let's say you're doing a download by FTP and
your IP changes. Do the sockets close? Is it transparent? If it's
transparent, how does that work???
2) Is there any way to write a Linux application that can detect when
your IP changes? I'd like to have a daemon running that detects when I'm
re-assigned a new IP (using DHCP), and then takes some action. I realize
that polling at regular intervals is possible, but I was wondering if
there was a nicer solution.

Date: Wed, 1 Sep 1999 12:53:15 +1000
I am also setting up a similar type of arrangement, on a slightly larger
scale. We have a 10 user LAN with W95 on the desktops and one server
running NT and IIS (dialup modem also connected for desktop internet access
across the LAN).
I'm trying to set up my RH6 Linux box so that it can not only connect to the
LAN, but also ping external IP addresses.
So I have assigned the Linux box a private IP address... ie 10.0.0.x and
have put in the NT server IP address as the default gateway. However, I do
not have a name server on the network and am unable to resolve names, plus
if I ping any external addresses all I get are packets that wander off into
nowhere.
Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks.

I know that last part -- I guess (although if it is in the man
pages it is thoroughly buried) that Windows password encryption must
produce a different encryption string than Unix password encryption,
thus requiring a separate smbpasswd file. The problem on the Qube is
that the Cobalt Web-UI function for changing your password is supposed
to change both /etc/passwd and /etc/smbpasswd, but it is apparently
buggy and doesn't always do its job, and doesn't let you know when it
didn't do it (until you try the file sharing and it doesn't work, and
you happen to know that this is the first wrong thing to look for).

Use of DHCP for WINS resolution has nothing to do with obtaining an IP
address. In other words, it's not relevant to your current problem.
A couple of things:
a) Why are you running DHCPD? That daemon allows your system to be a
DHCP _server_! From your boot logs, you only have one NIC so you
certainly don't want to be running this if you are trying to get an IP
dynamically from another DHCP server.
b) DHCPCD is pretty much deprecated with the 2.2.* kernels -- you should
be using dhcpclient or pump.

Subject: Samba smb.conf print spooling commands
Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 23:58:31 -0400
I'm trying to get printing set up on a Samba server for the 1st time and
have a question about the smb.conf for printers.
I can print test pages to lp,lp1,lp2 (LPT1, 2 and 3) from Linux printer
configuration utility, and I can see and attach to each the shares from a
Win9x box, but Winx print jobs seem to go into the bit bucket.
I was trying to figure this out and ran testparm against my smb.conf
file. I was surprised to see the the printing related stuff was like
this:
printing = sysv
print command = lp -c -d%p %s; rm %s
lpq command = lpstat -o%p
lprm command = cancel %p-%j
lppause command = lp -i %p-%j -H hold
lpresume command = lp -i %p-%j -H resume
queuepause command = lpc stop %p
queueresume command = lpc start %p
I looked on the system and couldn't even find a program called lp or
lpstat or cancel. This apparently is the "default" printing configuration
from 2.03 that came with RedHat 6.0 (and also Caldera 2.2)
Is there something wrong with this configuration? It seems to be the
default for both RH 6 and Caldera 2.2.
Thanks for taking the time to look at this,

Subject: RH 6.0, PPP, and my ISP
Date: Wed, 01 Sep 1999 03:52:57 +0000
I am trying to connect to my ISP (Intrex in Raleigh, NC). They don't
officially support linux, but have several users connecting with it. I
have tried everything I can think of. I have set up the connection with
RedHat's netcfg, using scripts, connecting with minicom and then
starting pppd after exiting, and a few other methods. I am using PAP.
I have a Digicom Connection 144+ modem. I can connect to a terminal
dialup somewhere else and use slirp without any problems. I have
attached a script that I have tried, the output generated when starting
pppd from the command line after connecting with chat, and what is
generated in my log files. What gives?!!
===============script================
#!/bin/bash -v
# ppp-on
# Set up a PPP link
# /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file must exist and contain
# USERNAME * PASSWORD
LOCKDIR=/var/lock/modem
DEVICE=modem
umask 022
PHONE=<my ISP's number>
NAME=<my PAP name>
if [ -f $LOCKDIR/LCK..$DEVICE ]
then
echo "PPP device is locked"
exit 1
fi
(
stty 38400 -tostop crtscts
if /usr/sbin/chat -v ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT BUSY "" ATZ OK
ATD$PHONE
then
echo "chat successful, attempting pppd at `date`..." >
/dev/console
/usr/sbin/pppd -d -detach /dev/$DEVICE crtscts name $NAME
defaultroute &
sleep 5
exit 0
else
echo "PPP call failed" > /dev/console
exit 1
fi
