Subject: Binding ftpd to only private internal address
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2000 18:44:26 GMT
Right now I have ftp disabled in inetd and start it up when i need it.
The computer does have dual NICS..one with a private internal IP
pointing to my home network and the second NIC pointing to the
Internet and getting it's IP address via DHCP from the ISP.
Of course MASQ and firewall are already setup and working.
I would like to let ftpd start at boot and not bind to the external
NIC and global IP address.
Any pointers to online docs would be appreciated.

Subject: Mandrake 7.0 with Windows 98
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2000 12:08:40 -0700
We have a PC that was running windows 98 and installed Mandrake on the
same PC. The default options were specified, and autoconfigure was
selected.
Now we cannot boot into Windows. I know the MBR was overwritten. Does
Mandrake create it's own partition or use the entire hard drive? Is it
possible to recover the windows disk and if so, how?
Thanks,
Jason

I think I tried that. I was a little fuzzy last night, but I'll try it

Subject: Re: ppp disconnect
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2000 12:21:07 -0700
I found a very helpful resource for getting my laptop configured for an
external modem and PPP, namely "How to hook up PPP in Linux" by W. G. Unruh and
available from http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.html. Having just gone
through the process myself and looking at PPP logs, what I notice is that you
aren't getting "rcvd [LCP..." messages from your ISP. No wonder it times out
and hangs up after a while. That seems to contradict the "Connect: ppp0 <-->
/dev/ttyS0" message. At any rate, you haven't gotten as far as negotiating
authentication (PAP or otherwise) with the server. If you had, you would have
seen a message in the PPP log like "rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 ... <auth pap>
...."
My suggestion is to check out the dialup how-to above. I don't know why you
are not receiving from your ISP after connecting, but hopefully the how-to will
help narrow down the problem.
Good luck!

So it will install on there and boot without a problem? I seem to remember
there being a problem with this for some reason, but then again, maybe it
was when I had my 9gb hard drive in my computer in addition to the 27 and
there was a problem with Master/Primary. Can't remember. Just wanted to make
sure this would work, before I broke off the partition.

As an interresting sidenote to this, when I had a similar problem, I used
the same fix. But running /sbin/lilo while su'd didn't fix the problem, I
received no error messages, but it wasn't until I actually logged in as root to

Yes that is odd since "su" should give the same permissions as "root".

Subject: help with RAID tools
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2000 16:43:17 -0400
I have RAID 1 devices set up and working, it would seem. Wanted to test
a resync, so did the following:
umount partition
raidstop /dev/md3
change second "raid-disk" of md3 to "failed-disk in /etc/raidtab
raidstart /dev/md3
messages and /proc/mdstat proclaim md3 is still 2 disks, likewise after
reboot.
kernel is 2.2.16-3smp , raidtools are raidtools-0.90-6
section of /etc/raidtab:
raiddev /dev/md3
raid-level 1
nr-raid-disks 2
chunk-size 64k
persistent-superblock 1
#nr-spare-disks 0
device /dev/sda8
raid-disk 0
device /dev/sdb8
raid-disk 1
Then I went back and inserted a mkraid after the raidstop, ignoring the
dire warning messages and it apparently did what I expected: created
raid with one disk; I added a bunch of files and directories, then went
through the steps again changing raidtab back and now it is resyncing.
So, is this the way it works? If so, why the warnings about destroying
everything on the raid device? When does stuff _really_ get destroyed?

There is a native 1024 cylinder problem which most newer Linux's solve
with an updated LILO. That is irrelevent if you use Xosl, since it
starts the boot process BEFORE any partition related space problems if
you install it in the first FAT(32) partition. XOSL "chains" the boot
to whatever you are booting, Win 98, 2k, ME, Linux or whatever. This is
basically why you can install it there and boot from a floppy - it
avoids the inherent IDE / Linux partitions limitations.
Should work like a charm and give you a nifty looking front end too.
