Good luck.

After seeing this, I realized that arief is correct.  I earlier said it 
uses pins 2,3,4 and 6 and he is correct, it is 1,2,3 and 6

Doh.

Concept: Two sisters, seperated by 14 hours of driving, and some Rocky
Mountains.
Each has DSL service.

One has an I-Mac, one with i386 Debian GNU/Linux, each with a microphone / speaker headset and Apache Web server on this end.

Any package suggestions? BTW Yes, they each have a telephone. 

 

I don't know of specific tools but check out http://www.openh323.org

Re: Installing Intel compiler RPMs on Debian

Charlie Zender wrote:

Hi,

What is the recommended way to install the Intel Fortran and C/C++
compilers on Debian? They come as a set of RPMs. The RPMs do not
install on my Debian system, because  there are no RPMs installed
on my Debian system so it can't find any pre-requisites:
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2)

I suppose I could try to find where the RPMs want to install their 
contents, and then try to install them myself manually.
This sounds dangerous and error-prone, however.
I gather this is a FAQ, what to do when you have an RPM you want
to install on a Debian system?, but I could not find the answer.

Any tips appreciated,
Charlie
 

You could try to use alien to turn it into a deb.  I used alien with 
rpm's for drivers for a Digiboard and had pretty good luck.  As for the 
db3 error, there is a Debian package for db3 if it is required. 
apt-cache search db3

Good luck,

Please help me
I'm trying to connect two pc's, but I allways get the message 
unable to  connect to remote host: No route to host. What am I 
missing?

My config for pc1 looks like this:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
rout add -host 192.168.0.2 eth0
route -n output:
192.168.0.2  0.0.0.0  255.255.255.255  UH  0  0  0  eth0
192.168.0.0  0.0.0.0  255.255.255.0UH  0  0  0  eth0
/etc/hosts
domain  home
search  home
nameserver 10.0.0.1
nameserver 10.0.0.2
 

You shouldn't need a route for the other host.  Because they are on the 
same subnet, broadcasts should see that machine.  Remove the route for 
192.168.0.2 and try it again.  If you still can't see it, I would guess 
that you have a subnet mask problem on one of the two machines.

I don't even think it's a good way to stay current.  Well, at least
not in any manner that you couldn't get from looking through the
certification vendor's software and hardware sales catalogs and

We're not talking about reality here, we're talking about corporate

to date in reality, but it looks that way on paper, which unfortunately 
too many people rely on.  As with most things, it's all about perception...
