i believe you needed to install as server.
where telnet comes in automatically or install as custom and select the
packages you need.
you are on the right track. i don't have my manuals in front of me but you
should be able to pick out the telnet rpm quite easily.

Hi all,
this has got to be obvious but it is eluding me as I'm really tired. I was
looking for bin86 on cooker but it was not there. Maybe I'm confused? I got
the latest dev86 and binutils and installed them.. still this is all I get
when I go to compile. Looks like it has no idea what it is doing.

Subject: Maximimun Process Size 555Mb ?
Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2000 17:16:47 GMT
G'Day All,
Righto, we run an ISP and have a Large Linux / Squid proxy box. We put
some more disk in, and our squid process begain to grow (this is
expected) - to this end, we bumped the ram on the machine up to 1Gb.
When our squid process bombs ouy (at 555Mb) we see
"xmalloc: unable to allocate 32768 bytes!".
After much trolling around lists / squid archives etc I just couldn't
find any (linux specific answers).
I needed to work out if it was a squid issue or a memory issues. I
wrote a small C program that mallocs 1 byte at a time. Malloc _always_
fails at: 576797824 bytes. (which is around the same size as the squid
process).
I have also tried intentially getting other processes to blow out
memory wise, and sure enough they all die around the same size. This
has been done on 4 machine (the ones with enough real memory test with
swap off too).
I have gone through all of the ulimit issues etc (all show data seg
size set to unlimited).
So - is there some kind of kernel limitation on the maximum size of the
kernel ? (if so where on earth is it!!!).
FYI: (main squid proxy)
Gigabyte Motherboard
P3 800 (100)
1Gb Ram
Slackware 7.0 (with kernal upgrade to 2.2.16)
With my little "memory test" program, I managed to stop it 1 byte
before the failed malloc - at this point, /proc/process_num/-

This can be caused by the conf.modules file if you have compiled the
modules into the kernel instead of as loadable modules. If it is just
one or two modules that are causing the problem you can remove the line
that points to it in the conf.modules file.
If you have "No Loadable Modules" where they are all compiled into the
kernel then you told the kernel what it needs during the configuration
section of rebuilding the kernel, it no longer needs to be told at boot
time what modules to use.
Notice: The steps below are ONLY for kernels with no loadable modules.
(If you compiled everything into the kernel only!)
You have been warned!
To correct this we want to:
Comment out the line around line 259 in the rc.sysinit file.
(vi +259 /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit):
if [ -x /sbin/depmod -a -n "$USEMODULES" ]; then
You will also need to comment out these lines starting around line 271
in the rc.sysinit file.
(vi +271 /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit):
if [ -L /lib/modules/default ]; then
INITLOG_ARGS= action "Finding module dependencies" depmod -a default
else
INITLOG_ARGS= action "Finding module dependencies" depmod -a
fi
fi
You will no longer need the conf.modules file or modutils, since it is
only used by the kernel to load the modules needed by your system.
rpm -e --nodeps modutils
rm -f /etc/conf.modules
Hope this helps.

Choose inoculate in norton and it shouldn't see it until you reinstall

Subject: nslookup fails on first try, help?!
Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2000 17:52:29 GMT
I recently set up DNS on my machine. I followed through what the
DNS-HOWTO says, and everything seem to be working fine except for one
thing.
If I reboot my machine, then log in, and type nslookup, I get the
following error message:
***Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: No response from
server.
Yet my machine answers to all of the names it is supposed to from
outside my network, so I know my machine is responding. nslookup then
fails over to my second nameserver listed in my resolv.conf, which is
one of the nameserevers from my ISP. Here is the catch, if I now exit
out of nslookup, and try it again, I get:
#nslookup
Default Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
>
This is what I'm supposed to get the first time according to the
DNS-HOWTO. I spent hours comparing my files to the ones in the
DNS-HOWTO and examples on other websites making sure I had all of the
'.' where I was supposed and didn't have them where I wasn't supposed
to. Anybody have any idea what cold be causing this? What files should
I look in again? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi.
I installed the RedHat 6.2 on my computer ,and
during the installation I forgot to specify the mount point for Windows98 on
separate partition.
Now I only see "cdrom" and "floppy" under the

I think, I should edit /etc/mtab in order to gain access to it. Am I
right? If so... is there any HOWTO and manual for it~? BTW my Windows98

Eeek!!! DO NOT EDIT /etc/mtab!
What you need is something like
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win vfat user 0 0
in /etc/fstab.
^^^^^^^^^^
But probably, your Win98 partition is a FAT32 partition which is IMHO
not (yet) supported by Linux.

Hello all,
I just bought a Freestyle Pro and am trying to get it to work under
linux through the gameport.
My config:
Mandrake 7.1
Joystick ver 1.2.15
A regular joystick or gamepad works. According to the joystick driver
docs, the Freestyle Pro is supported by the joy-sidewinder module.
Whenever I install the joy-sidewinder mod, It says it has detected an
unknown joystick and displays diags. The type packet is blank. The
data packet shows data.
The joystick works great under Windoze.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Mostly I just like to play with OSs, and until recently I've only been
able to afford one computer at a time. (Now I've got four, but that's
mainly because I've been writing a lot of networking books lately.) With
OSs as a hobby and a single computer, I've pretty much had to learn a
lot about multi-boot configurations. As I'd written a couple of other
books at that point, it seemed logical to do another one on that topic.

I don't think windows will ever recognise linux partitions....
I'm afraid if you resized the partion all your info is gone, but I could be wrong
I don't know of any program that will allow you to view linux partitions on
winblows, it might be there though...

Hi,
NO! Do not edit /etc/mtab!
The /etc/mtab file is changed by the mount command every time
a drive is mounted. The mount command keeps a table of currently
mounted drives in there.
On a RH6.2 system you can use linuxconf (as root) to set this up.
In linuxconf go to the "Config->File Systems->Access Local Drives"
dialog box, and select "Add". The file system type should be vfat,
or auto.
If you want to do it by hand:
The file you're looking for is /etc/fstab (File System TABle).
You will need to add a line for the hda1 partition (see: man fstab).
This command will do it:
[root@zephyr]# echo "/dev/hda1 /mnt/win auto defaults 1 2" >> /etc/fstab
You will also need to create the directory you will use as a
mount point. This command will do that:
[root@zephyr]# mkdir /mnt/win
Then mount it with this command:
[root@zephyr]# mount /mnt/win
Using these settings will remount the win partition every time you boot.

Yes, VMS does it that way. Lets play VAX shall we? I use to
write programs in cobol on VMS the steps where
cobol mycode.cob
link mycode
run mycode
Like MSDOS and CP/M the compile comes in two parts. some
programs had to use a runtime lib (such as brun for compiled bascom
programs under MSDOS and CP/M) Unix systems for the most part DOn't
need those steps.

No big deal; it just weirded me out that the only part I understood was
"Happy99.exe"
I'm pretty sure I'm not posting Happy99 running SLRN on my SuSE box. ;^)
