(by linux i mean red hat linux)
i couldn't get inn 2.2 to start up, so i got the 2.2.1 distribution
and installed it. i copied in my old config files.
the thing still won't start. i now suspect there's a problem
with linux itself.
my next trick will be to upgrade to linux 6.0 . does anyone know
whether this will clear out the existing devices ( /dev and friends )?
what i'm worried about is some misconfigured file being kept by
the upgrade. does anyone know if red hat will do a good cleanup?

Subject: Netscape - wwwoffle - DNS problem!
Date: Thu, 02 Sep 1999 22:37:48 +0000
Hello there,
I do get strange things with netscape lately.
I did install wwwoffle on my Linux box, and of course i referred to it
out of netscape's proxy settings (http://localhost:8080). wwwoffle had
to be configured to point to the original proxy, which is
(http://proxy.uunet.be:80).
When i try to activate any kind of url using this configuration, i
always get the error: Name Lookup - Non Authoritive Answer, host not
found.
When i let netscape point to the proxy server of my internet provider, i
can get onto the world wide web without any problems, but with my own
proxy server in between, i always have this error, on any host.
I'm without a clue. It did work before though, and actually i don't
think i did change anything at all in the /etc/ configuration files.
Can somebody give me some help?
Thanx in advance!
Marc

I'm having similar problem. My PC is Cyrix-150, with 3c509B as NIC,
and connected to my ISP via cable modem. I'm using RedHat 6.0.
Everything seems to work OK, but when I start downloading (ftp or
http) any file with size larger than 40K, the connection just stalls.
However, I can still open a separate connection.
I still have RedHat 5.2 on my machine, and 5.2 never had this problem.
Anyone has any clue about what's going on?

Subject: Re: Samba - newbie
Date: Thu, 2 Sep 1999 16:59:36 -0400
I couldn't get it to work until I removed NetBEUI. There is one other trick
about password encryption. I copied the following from the SMB HOWTO
written by David Wood:
"It used to be that easy; you would now be able to start Samba and browse
the shares from a Windows PC. However, Microsoft has recently made life
slightly more difficult for those using Samba. Windows 98, Windows NT
(service pack 3 or higher) and later builds of Windows 95 now use encrypted
passwords by default. Samba uses unencrypted passwords by default. You can't
browse servers when either the client or server is using encrypted
passwords, because a connection cannot be made anonymously.
You can tell if you have a password type mismatch between client and server
if when you try to connect to a share you see a dialog box which reads
something like "You are not authorized to access that account from this
machine".
You can either configure your Samba server to use encrypted passwords, or
configure the Windows machines to use unencrypted passwords.
To get Windows to work with encrypted SMB passwords:
Windows 95/98 =============
Using the registry editor (regedit), create the registry setting
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP Add a new
DWORD value: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data: 0x01.
Windows NT ==========
Using the registry editor (regedit), create the registry setting
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rdr\Parameters Add a
new DWORD value: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data: 0x01"
I took his suggestion and made the changes in the registry and everything
worked beautifully.

yeah yeah i know that... okay but i have a valid IP...
so i should only set that to localhost in /etc/hosts and put another entry with
my hostname and the dyn IP?
okay so now i have my dyn IP addy and my hostname in /etc/hosts and it gives me
back my own IP with nmblookup
BTW what does this mean:
Warning: inconsistant interface 24.29.xx.xx ? (I replaced the addy with xx)
and when i lookup the windows machines it just gives me back 0.0.0.0

Subject: PPP can't resolve host name
Date: Thu, 02 Sep 1999 21:31:07 GMT
Hi veryone
I am trying to get my Linux box to connect to the internet. I have the
modem dial to my isp and the connection seem fine. I am running RH6 on it
own pullout harddrive.
mainly I use kppp, usernet, and PPP under linuxconf for the connection. I
use PAP for the connection. CHAP or anyother type doesn't work it
disconnect where it say "checking username and password".
once a connection is made, from terminal if I ping by the ip, I got a
reply from.
for example
># ping 204.71.200.245
I got a reply back from the server (yahoo.com) with this ip, but if I do
># ping yahoo.com
I got hostname not found.
when I try nslookup, all the ip and name are resolve fine like if i put in
yahoo.com it gave me the ip and if i put in the ip it gave me the name.
when I setup PPP under linuxconf and kppp I did put in my isp DNS server
(134.139.1.2) in this case. I check resolvr.conf file and the line
(nameserver 134.139.1.2) is there.
I try netscape browser, it throw me an error about $SOCK_IP or something
like that forgot but the browser work only if i put in the ip for the
url. host not found if i put in the name (yahoo.com, netscape.com)
I can tell that there is a dsn resolve problem, but all the name are
resolve fine under nslookup using the same dns server i put in
kppp/PPP ... how can i fix it ???
I am very sure that my isp (It's a university) is running either BSD or
some type of linux. for their dial-up server.
did I miss any configuration here ???
what else do i have to do to make my linux box connect?
thanks

Ron,
Post in a newsgroup, and you will get an answer here....
1) On your Linux machine, install SAMBA in order to share files and other
resources (printer,fax , cd ,etc) to other machines. Windows machines
will see the SAMBA server in the "Network neighborhood", or you could even
set-up a short-cut to the SAMBA server. (www.samba.org)
2) On the Linux machine, try a program called "Linneighborhood" , or
"Xsmb" - which will give you a "network neighborhood" style view of the
Windows machine from Linux.
3) As far as sharing a printer, if it's on the Windows machine, and you want
to print to it from the Linux machine - use "print-tool" from within RH
Linux 5.2 to set it up. (not too hard....) Going the other way - you can
use SAMBA ( read the DOC's on this....)
Needless to say.....you've got a bit of work to do.....good luck !

Pppd should accept PAP with a correct line in the pap-secrets file and
"name <my PAP name>" or "user <my PAP name>" as an option.
The script you use seems contorted to me, especially the input-output
stdio redirection with a pppd command inside. I also find that I'm not
clear on whether this script is all that is executed or whether pppd is
executed from the command line after this script runs.
Anyway you might try the script ppp-secrets.gz at

and see if it will work. It comes with directions should be easy to

Hi all,
I'm using Redhat Linux, version 6.0 with a 3COM Etherlink III, ISA. I
used an ftp install, and everything worked fine with the ethernet card.
Now, however, when the system boots up, it fails when trying to start

Make sure your list of rules starts with a purge or else you may be adding
your firewall rules to the end of a chain that already lets everything
through.
When specifying ports, you have to remember that the outgoing port is not
neccessarily the same as the destination port. If you want to block FTP,
you block connections *TO* the FTP port because those connections could
originate from any port.
Remember that masquerading works by changing the port numbers. Trying to
block the inbound replies may or may not work depending on where the rules
are applied relative to the demasq process.
The FTP protocol has a PASV mode (designed for masqueraded connections) in
which the default ftp-data port is not used. Blocking it is generally a
waste of time. If they can't connect to the FTP server's control stream
they can't request a data stream, so you can kill two birds with one stone
by simply blocking the control stream.
You do not need to include source or destination addresses of
0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 (aka 0/0) unless you are including a port number. If the
-s or -d options are missing, ipchains automatically uses "0/0 *"
If you specify an interface in a forwarding rule, remember that it only
matches the *OUTBOUND* interface regardless of where in the command you
place the option. Filtering based on the inbound interface can only be
done in the input rule chain. Although most programs (such as linuxconf)
substitute the IP address when you specify an interface, the ipchains
themselves can use hardware names in the interface specifier. This is a
much better way to specify interfaces on machines that use DHCP as the
rules don't break when the lease is renewed under a different address.
For example, if your internet connection is on eth1 and your private
network is on eth0 using addresses 10.*.*.*, you can prevent IP spoofing
and failed masquerading by using:
ipchains -A input -s 10/8 -i eth1 -j DENY
ipchains -A output -s 10/8 -i eth1 -j REJECT
(There's no point logging a spoof attempt as the address is invalid
anyway, but you will want to log a masq failure so you can find out where
you went wrong.)
Remember that DENY simply drops the packet on the floor, while REJECT
incurs overhead by sending back a refusal packet and optionally logging
the rejection.
Try the following to block FTP requests from 10.0.0.1 while allowing
everything else:
ipchains --policy forward DENY
ipchains --flush forward
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 ftp -j REJECT
ipchains -A forward -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j MASQ
Caveat: Many "warez" ftp and www sites use non-standard ports to prevent
easy discovery. If your user on 10.0.0.1 is connecting to a warez site,
there may be no port-specific way of blocking him. In such cases, the
only policy that works effectively is a scorched earth policy that blocks
everything EXCEPT whatever ports you deem neccessary, such as:
ipchains --policy forward DENY
ipchains --flush forward
# allow standard connections from 10.0.0.1
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 smtp -j MASQ
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 pop3 -j MASQ
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 www -j MASQ
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 https -j MASQ
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 telnet -j MASQ
# block all other connections from 10.0.0.1
ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s 10.0.0.1 -d 0/0 -j DENY
# allow all other connections from the 10.* subnet
ipchains -A forward -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j MASQ
Have fun.

I am going to be doing an upgrade to 6.0 from 5.2 and asked questions
about it. One thing I was told is that 6.0 had a buggy Netscape but that
I would find an update on my CheapBytes disk. I don't know if that is
your problem. You might go to www.redhat.com support and support search.
There are two separate searches, one specifically searches the question
and answers at support. There well might be something on it there.
Good luck.

The best fix is to get the application modified to set SO_REUSEADDR
before trying to bind(). Then it will not matter that there are

hello all,
my work is experimenting with a linux server. Woohoo. I have a
question about getting linux to acknowledge the other computers on the
network. Most (if not all... I am not the network administrator) of the
computers on the network have dynamic addresses (dhpc)
I have set the linux box up on the network and can ping other machines.
I know that linux can look up other computers in /etc/hosts but how can
I build /etc/hosts or import them for that matter. It would seem futile
to type all of the ip addresses in with their aliases just to have the
computer ip's change.
Any one have any suggestions about what to do or point me in the
direction of some articles.
Thanks very much.

press enter. There is then a short pause, and a disconnect, followed by
***Host Not Available***. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I doubt it. See if you can pay extra for a static IP address--it
makes things much easier.

Folks,
would anyone know the answer to this simple (or so I think)
questions:
1) can you run more than one PPP link on one serial connection on
Linux
2) I suspect that if you can run more than one, you need to invoke
"pppd"
for each link. Is this true?
Thanks in advance.

I installed JDK117,JSDK2.0 and JSERV 1.0. The configure script of
JSERV does not report any error,
neither does make and make install. But I cannot find the file
"mod_jserv.so"! Why?
