Samba now supports Encrypted passwords so I don't really want to go
around to the Win clients and hack the registry to make for plain text
passwords. Not very good for security measures

Besides, when I decided not to bother with diald and use pppd's demand
option I couldn't get it to even start up the daemon, let alone dial,
and even Dan Glover was puzzled by that one! ;) I installed diald
instead and it worked second time - it would have done first time but I
stupidly forgot to include the user option to make it use PAP.
I would recommend that you read the documentation thoroughly before
starting to configure it though. There are some important things to know
that aren't immediately obvious. The man pages are well enough written
to avoid that being too painful ;).

Subject: Can ping, but cannot telnet?
Date: Tue, 07 Sep 1999 13:19:39 -0400
I am trying to setup a gateway to a private network 192.168.0.0, using
Linux 2.0.35.
One of the two interfaces on Linux has the address 192.168.69.102, the
other
216.76.98.77. I am sure I have the IP Forwording enabled.
At the Linux box, I can ping and telnet to 192.168.70.10, while a host
on the 216.76.98
network can only ping this address, not able to make a telnet connection
to it.

this is an example of a computer on my network that uses pprosvr as the gateway to the
Internet.
(it also is a gateway for another internal network, but for simplicity sake)

With this configuration I have five machines inside that use IP 192.168.0.110 to reach
the
Inet, all interfaces stay up, I never have to bring them down. I use a hosts file and
the
other machines can query 192.168.0.110 for addresses, which inturn makes 192.168.0.110

Subject: dns configuration problem
Date: 7 Sep 1999 22:20:27 GMT
I've been trying to correctly configure DNS for the last
week, to no avail.
The problem: using nslookup, when typing in the
domain name, I get an error message of "natal-stamp-coin.com
can't find stamp-coin.com: Non-existent host or domain."
I used h2n.pl to create the /var/named files.
I used dlint, dnswalk and a few other dns checkers to
validate the dns configuration files. [ The only thing
they complained about, was that the nameservers have
different serial numbers. ]
/var/log/messages did not have any error messages in it.
Going through _DNS and Bind_ didn't help me any. :-(
Operating system is Linux : Distribution is RedHat 5.2
I'm using BIND 8.2.1
Can somebody point out to me where the mis-configuration
is, so I can correct it.
Here the files are:

options {

I have almost no experience with linux, so I am a little hesitant to give
advice.. nevertheless I had a similar problem to you and I managed to find a
workaround.
I am using redhat 5.2. the rtl8139.0 appears in my net modules but does not
appear as a device in lunxconf. I attempted to re-compile the kernel after
configuring the rtl8139 as a built-in device but it created other problems
so -
I created two aliases in my /root/.bashrc
alias realtek = ' insmod /lib/modules/2.0.36-0.7/net/rtl8139.o'
'realtek' installed the rtl8139 into the running kernel
alias nwrestart = '/etc/rc.d.init.d.network restart'
'nwrestart' restarted the network
'ifconfig' now showed my realtek working under eth0
this may give you (as it did me) a temporary solution.

Macronix, actually, not Matrox. I've got one of these boards, and it
works fine with an updated Tulip driver. (It's handling my DSL bridge.)

Christopher,
One other thing, that a poster in another thread just reminded me about...
What do you have in your /etc/networks file? My Slackware system has the
following:
#
# networks This file describes a number of netname-to-address
# mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem. It is mostly
# used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
#
loopback 127.0.0.0
localnet 168.192.0.0
# End of networks.
I don't really think that this will solve your problem, but I don't know
that it won't, either.
