smbstatus -p
returns a list of active SMB processes ids (one per active share I think.)  
You could use that to kill all of them.
Otherwise, you can get a list of processes and what machine/username is 
connected with 
smbstatus -S

That output would have to be parsed to get the list you want.  I'm not sure if 
the "right" way to disconnect these users is to just kill the process or not 
though.

Whatever program/script you create that does the type of disconnect you want, 
you can use cron (man crontab) to run at the time you want to.

See if you get any response from minicom set to /dev/ttyS1.  But first see
if 'setserial -bg /dev/ttyS1' shows a device there with 16550A UART.  If
not, check /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/messages to see what serial ports
Linux found during boot.

BTW, what would you give me for a P180 MMX overdrive that would
comfortably run at 200 MHz if you set your box to P100 settings (66 MHz
clock)?  It runs at 180 MHz at P90/P120 settings (60 MHz).  Plug & play!

I haven't gotten Kppp to work in Mandrake 7.0 yet, but it had the RedHat
linuxconf program that worked.  Not sure if there is a console utility
like that in Storm Linux.

Just make sure it is not an RPI modem, which needed special software
drivers for error correction and compression and may not work with faster
modems unless forced back to 9600.

If MAILTO is defined (and non-empty), mail is sent to the user so named.  
If MAILTO is defined but empty (MAILTO=""), no mail will be sent.  
Otherwise mail is sent to the owner of the crontab.

I have this card and it works great with a switch but not with a hub.

Plugged into into the hub when it was set at 100TX it would flash a
few times then conk out. To get it to work on the hub
I set tulip options=9

That puts it in 10TX mode.

All the options are on the webpage mentioned in tulip.c

Just list the alias for that IP in /etc/hosts.  Or if you have a dynamic
IP use a 127.x.x.x address (but not 127.0.0.1.  For example

127.0.0.2       fantastic.com   machine40.subdomain.domain.com

Or use your internet IP for your internet name and LAN IP for your old
name.  You could use the same hostname like machine40.fantastic.com, but
if you list machine40 as an alias just do it on one of them.

But if you do not own domain.com, you should be using a fictional name
for your LAN (not .com .net etc.), or it might be confused with an
internet name.

Maybe you simply didn't configure pine properly.  Mail from root always
goes out as from root@yourhostname, but if you set up a user with the same
username as on your ISP, you can change the domain in pine.  In pine just
hit S, C, and where it says user-domain, set that to your ISP domain.  If
your local smtp does not work, you could always point pine at your ISP's
mail server.

For root you can set a Reply-To: address farther down in customized-hdrs.

I don't know which kernel you need, but if it is just a 2.2.x kernel, I
simply downloaded a generic linux-2.2.16.tar.bz2, then:

cd /usr/src
mkdir linux-2.2.16
rm linux  (this is just a symlink)
ln -s linux-2.2.16 linux
bunzip2 linux-2.2.16.tar.bz2
tar xvf linux-2.2.16.tar
(instead of above 2 lines for gzip:  tar xzvf linux-2.2.26.tar.gz)

Then see /usr/src/linux/README file and the Documentation dir under that. 

make mrproper
make menuconfig
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
make install

For a laptop you would also need the latest pcmcia-cs (3.1.17?)

Here is what I did to be able to print(for faulty printouts :) ) ->
Firstly, you should know what is the name of the printer which you want
to print
=> As root type in "control-panel". This will bring up an window showing
   some four icons.
=> Select printer icon from it.
=> This will bring-up the Print System Manager.
=> Select Add
=> This will bring up an Add a Printer Entry window
=> Select Remote Unix (lpd) queue
=> Add the following fields:
    Names: <name of the printer>
    Spool Directory: /var/spool/lpd/lp
    File Limit...: 0
    Remote Host: <name of the printer>
    Remote Queue: <name of the printer>
    Input Filter: <Select the type of the filter>
=>  Then Say OK and Add.

Come out, and print using the command, lpr -P<name of printer> <file>.
Then maybe you are luckier than me.

Good-luck,

pppd in RH 6.1 did not work right.  You the errata updates including ppp
and rp3 I think.  Otherwise it only seems to work every other time.  You
might also try adding this to /etc/conf.modules:

alias char_major_108 ppp 
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc 

The second line is for the printer that didn't work either (and get lpd
errata update).

From: Rob Harvey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Wed, 05 Jul 2000 23:16:40 -0700

No solution as yet, but something that may help.
I have three kernels on my laptop. Two of them will allow me to
mount my vfat drives, and one of them won't, giving the
old "wrong major/minor number"! I wasn't even aware that this
problem was there until I started to look around.

Somewhere in the make config I selected an option that won't let
me mount vfat drives. I haven't found out where, yet, but heard
a suggestion that perhaps compiling vfat,msdos fs support as a
module will not work but compiling into the kernel will.

Is there a simple way to read the config options from any
particular boot image (the binary, not the config.in file)? Then
I could just do a diff on the outputs.

Hello,

where is the best place in the startup files to put a command in the
startup files like

#  /sbin/hdparm -d1 -c1 -k1 /dev/hda

Or is there a better way to make these settings permanent?

TIA
C.
