Hi,
I have the red hat 6.0.
I created a user named art
When I log with this user using telnet from another machine, NO password
is needed.
When I try to log as root, the system tell me that's an invalid user.
Could anybody tell me what are the files I have to edit to permit root
to connect by telnet and to force the need of a password for my user.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
Is there any way (some GPL software) to make serial (PPP,HDLC)
encapsulation in IP to route to another Linux box or cisco router (like
STUN encapsulation in cisco IOS) ?
thanks

Subject: Frame tracer on Linux?
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 16:02:40 -0700
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
At work, I use a frame trace tool called Optimal Application Expert.
It displays the individual network frames passed between any 2 hosts
that are "audible" (locally connected) to the tracing machine,
including the tracing machine itself and a remote host.
Is there a tool that does this for Linux? Optimal is almost overkill
for what I'd like to do, just a thing that displays:
- # of frames, round-trips
- # of bytes
- contents of each frame, e.g.
Frame1
FC 10 E1 02 20 34 .blah blah...
AB 12 28 28 37 AD blah blah....
Frame2...

Does you smb.conf file have a "deadtime" set? This will kill
connections that aren't in use. You might try turning that off.

I got this to work. @home, dhcpcd (and just posted the how of it in
COSLN). Granted, I've never had my IP change either, but ... good god
... if @home were to change my IP address suddenly it could be a whole
10 minutes before I realized it and fixed it manually if I weren't
using DHCP ;-). Nevertheless, if you want to do it right, go to
http://plaza.powersurfr.com/mvester/html/dhcp.htm and read my post.

It could be a cron job ... crontab -l as root will list root's crontab
and if yes, then use crontab -e to edit and update it.

go about finding all the information I need to get the NIC running

Start looking for signs of a break-in. /var/log/wxtmp still exist?
Look at /var/log/messages for 'over the weekend'. Try narrowing it down
to when the pop stopped working.
Is there room on your drive? df -kl will tell you if you're over the
90% mark.
Might try unmounting the /var partition and fsck it.

Router? For multiple subnets? Or for one subnet?
Single subnet, it's easy enough to use one box. Multiple subnets, I'd
consider two boxes.

Subject: Installing 2 NIC both pcnet32?
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 23:06:08 GMT
Hi,
I am trying to install 2 PCI ethernet cards on a RH6.0 system.
Linux starts the first ethernet card correctly but when starting
the second card I get "Delaying eth1 initialization"
Both cards are the same brand and model. They both are functional.
Linux can start them separately but once both are in the computer
only one starts up.
The drivers are loaded as modules. The PCI subsystem is recognizing
the cards as ethernet cards but for some reason the pcnet32 driver
is only loading the driver for one of the card not both.
Any ideas?? Does the pcnet32 driver have any parameters to load more
than one ethernet card?? Does it support more than one ethernet card.
Thanks,
Ahmed

If you're not running a news server, delete all references to innd in

Hi guys,
Any help appreciated as I am getting very frustrated (oh for a linux

I've got Mandrake 6.0 installed on machine 1.
I want to get it installed on machine 2 using NFS to the CD Rom in machine
1.
I thought I'd very nearly cracked it yesterday when I checked
/var/log/messages on m/c1 and saw that m/c2 had tried (unsuccesfully) to
connect - a permission denied error occured (getfh failed:operation not
permitted).
So I set privs in /etc/exports but still no luck.
Now, when I try again tonight I am getting a mount.d error reported during
boot-up with the following :- "could not open /var/lib/nfs/xtab for
locking" - I checked and the file doesn't exist !
Where do I go from here ?
TIA.

Hi,
I'm running a Dell P3 500, with Redhat 6.0, and am having problems getting
my ip assigned through my college LAN. I have a 3com Etherlink III ethernet
card which I KNOW works with redhat 6.0 because my buddy got his 233 running
great with the same exact card. I've tried just about everything, I can't
statically assign my ip either. Is there anything I can do to get this to
work. I asked Redhat and the just told me to get another Ethernet card,
which I would rather not do.
Thanks

He actually wants call waiting to still kick him off, therefore
disabling it is not what he wnats.

Subject: IP Chains and FTP
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 23:31:18 GMT
I am trying to setup an FTP server on my windows machine which is behind a
Linux MASQ. I was wondering if anyone knows the specific ipchains rules
that will allow the FTP requests from the internet to be forwarded to
192.168.0.2 (1 of my windows machines) on my internal network.
My setup
2 windows machines 192.168.0.2 & .3
192.168.0.2 will be running serv_u FTP
Redhat 6.0 Kernel 2.2.x (Hedwig)
linux (internal net ip) 192.168.0.1 (eth0)
linux (external net ip ADSL-static ip)216.xxx.xxx.xxx (eth1)
IP MASQ is configured and working
Help!! sorry if this message is a duplicate

I've used them (the internet sharing hub) and had numerous problems.
The routing tables get messed up (result:no internet) or the hub doesn't
hang up properly (result: complaint's from my ISP threatening to drop me
unless I upgrade to a dedicated connection; generally accompanied by a
routing problem). Repeated attempts to get support from the
manufacturer have all met with complete failure. On top of which, the
security is flaky.
I prefer the Linux route. No problems with that so far.

If both computers are Linux or UNIX systems, try connecting to the remote
system using ssh. That's more secure, and it pipes the X protocols
through ssh, so the fact that masquerading is involved doesn't matter.

Yep - I feel your pain. :) What eventually worked for me was door #3,
screw dhcpcd. :)
If your @Home setup was anything like mine, the receipt they give you is
actually the work order, which has all the information about your IP, DNS,
Netmask, etc printed on it. Now I know they reserve the right to swap your
IP at a moment's notice, but I've got a friend who's been running quite
happily for two *years* on the same IP, so I think that's just some
ass-covering, not an actual business plan. At very least, if you refrain
from disconnecting the cable modem, you should be okay.
So yes, ditch the dhcpcd, enter the information manually (I just added
ifconfig and route entries where appropriate) and watch it come alive. I
dunno about other people's experiences, but this has worked for me with
Rogers@Home (Toronto, ON) service, as well as Sympatico High-Speed Edition
ADSL service.
good luck,
Johnathan

Subject: syntax of /etc/hosts.lpd?
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 16:42:49 -0600
I just went through a frustrating afternoon trying to do the same.
Did I feel stupid when I realized that the local host was not listed
in the remote printing server's /etc/hosts file? Yup. It worked
after fixing that and killing/restarting lpd on the remote machine.
The /etc/hosts.lpd format was just localmachine.mydomain.com.
