Subject: autofs and ftpd?
Date: Tue, 07 Sep 1999 22:11:19 -0400

I'm running autofs (3.1.3) and ftpd (wu-ftpd 2.5.0(1)) on a
GNU/Linux system.  I notice that when I ftp into this box
it takes rather a long time for the ftp prompt to come up,
and by examining what's going on remotely I see that an
ftp connection is triggering a mount of all the devices
mentioned in /etc/auto.mnt (DOS drive, floppy, cdrom, zip 
drive).  

I can't figure why this should happen.  The tree under 
/home/ftp contains no automounted systems, nor any symlinks
to same.  The paths to the automounted systems are
/mnt/floppy, /mnt/cdrom etc.  I've seen the same thing
with earlier versions of wu-ftpd.

Can anyone help me understand this and (ideally) give a
clue to stopping it?  Thanks.  (email much appreciated)

I have an ftp server problem, I cant log on as any user that I add
only anonymous and ftp. I narrowed it down to pam.d with help from a
nice IRC person. Can someone tell me what to look for in this dir that
will allow me to connect as a user on my ftp server. Any help would be
appreciated. And as I get proficient in this wonderful linux world I
will not forget the help and I will help others.

"please"

I cant seem to find any documentation on PAM or the contents of the
pam.d dir. even pointing me to the documentation would be appreciated.

John,

If  your running the "stock" redhat 5.2 kernel, all you  need to do is
enable IP_FORWARDING. To do so, just edit /etc/sysconfig/network and change
the following line from:

FORWARD_IPV4=no

to

FORWARD_IPV4=yes

Also, there is no need to re-compile any "stock" RedHat 5.2 or 6.0 kernel to
enable IP_FORWARDING. The forwarding code is already compiled into their
linux kernels, they just don't enable IP_FORWARDING by default.

I am not familiar with NT, but if you are asking how to set up Linux so
you can dial into it or a network, you need to set up something like
mgetty to answer the phone.  You can set it up for shell logon and AutoPPP
(using PAP auth).  See: http://www.xnet.com/~efflandt/linux/dialin.txt

I got a kick out of reading some Netware literature that suggested using a
dedicated machine for remote dialin access.  Maybe they were still using
DOS then.  I have an old 8 meg 386DX33 that does dialin, http, ftp and
samba in Linux.  But it has been hot rodded up to 26 bogomips with a Cyrix
486DRx2/66.  I don't even think NT would run on it.

pppd WILL do dynamic addressing.
My /etc/ppp/options file has(among other things):

demand
idle 300     #to bring the link down after 5 minutes
10.0.0.0:10.0.0.0    #which serves the purpose until the dynamic
                                 #IP address is assigned
ipcp-accept-remote     #which allows the address to be assigned
ipcp-accept-local         #ditto

Here's a couple links.
 I'm not even sure the fake addresses are necessary, but it made me crazy
getting it to work and I'm done playing with it for now!!

I think that "after the question" is a logical place to put a response,
particularly if a given thread goes on for a while (and one has a few
layers of nested quotes to keep track of).

Quoting "before the question" stems from mainframe-based e-mail systems
like PROFS (OV), which generally append the text of forwarded messages
to the bottom, and while I think that works well for e-mail, that type
of quoting is harder to read (IMhO) in a Usenet context.

FWIW, the same text quoting convention existed in a large number of BBS
message networks several years ago (RIME, FidoNet, and I'Link for sure)
back when I was active on them, except manyu of those readers would
also put the initials of the person being quoted as part of the quote
prefix (e.g., "NL>" instead of just ">").

Most newsreaders will automagically quote the previous message text
when the user initiates a follow-up posting, and it's fairly easy for
the user to subtract the parts they don't want from their responses.

I have no idea why you'd want to do anything of the sort, but you
could use something like wingate (was shareware last time I had an
incling to look).  You should probably hit up a windows newsgroup

If its an ISA you can set its resources with ISAPNPTOOLS. It should be in
your distribution.  Its pretty self explanatory. The newer ones might report
a problem with IORESOURCE check. Theres a workaround on the ISAPNPTOOLS
page. Feel free to email if you need more.

If its PCI, I believe PCIUTILS is the tool of choice, but I've never used it
so you're on your own.

I am currently using "ipmasqadm" to access an Exchange server sitting on my
local LAN behind the linux box (RH 6.0) which is also configured with
IPCHAINS for internet access. I currently "portfw" ports 80 and 110. I have
included a cut/paste from shell scripts that I developed with relevant info
that should help you get started in the right direction.

NOTE: RH6.0 comes with the required modules needed for ipmasqadm operation.
In fact, the kernel is already compiled with everything you need (no need to
recompile), but for some reason they (RedHat) did not include the ipmasqadm
command <groan>. You will have to download, compile and install ipmasqadm.

Hope this gets you started. I have been using (ipmasqadm) for about 6 months
without a hickup!! Ipmasqadm is still considered "experimental" though. If
your not interested in using "experimental" code... download, compile and
install "rinetd". I have used this program in the past and it works quite
well for what you are trying to acheive.

Try these:
You probably have everything you need in your distribution.
Generally, the configuration will have an
