Don't you still need ypbind running on the NIS server, too, for yppasswd to
work in place of passwd?  I don't like yppasswd becuase it is very
restrictive in password selection.  Is there any configuration to make it
more "relaxed"?
Good luck.

Hi,
I have a NT DNS server and a linux server. If I want my linux server to
use the DNS service of NT, should I add the entry of NT nameserver in
the file resolv.conf  in linux?
Thanks

Have you set domainname?

domainname name_of_NIS_domain

Just type domainname and see if it returns its string.  If it is not set,
ypbind will not work.

You can have it set automagically upon reboot from the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
script by adding a line in the /etc/sysconfig/network file:

NISDOMAIN="name_of_NIS_domain"

Good luck.

Never mind about my previous message--I found mksmbpasswd.  It just wasn't
in the directory where the instruction said it would be.

Now I think I've set up the smb.conf file correctly.  I can ping between the
Linux and Windows machines.  But when I click on Network Neighborhood, it
still can't see the Linux box.  Suggestions, please?  Thanks.

Hello,

Take a peek at Michael Peppler's FAQ for ASE on Linux:

His page also has links to other sybase related sites (not necessarily Linux

 Hello everyone,

 Can someone plese post a faq on Sybase ASE installation in Redhat Linux?

 I'm a newbie to Linux (1 week) and Sybase (3 weeks) although I have some
 background in Unix and MS SQL.  Got a book on Linux, few books on Sybase but
 I noticed that each version and Operating system platform has certain
 differences.

 Linux is running without X windows yet.  I still have to download
 X drivers for my SIS 6326 video card.  I've also extracted Sybase
 using Redhat Package Manager to /opt/sybase

 I need to find out the permissions, block directory structure and
 general installation procedure. Don't know how to access the documentation
 (*.gif files) from a Win95 station yet.

 Any input on directory size requirements, connectivity via Win95- Sybase
 Central, etc. I've tried open client at work.

 Thanks in advance

carefully configured Unix machines (that hide everything), or are simple
vanilla Windows machines without any other services besides netbios?

This is a scan sample:

Looks like the output of nmap. Try to use the -O option, you can let nmap
guess the operating system with this. And -sS and -v might be useful, too
:).

Funny though, I've had problems too after upgrading to 2.2.0; When I run
ifconfig (or actually it's being run by my startup script..) I get some
SIOCSADDR error. The funny part is that when I run it again, it runs
perfectly without any errors. So, now I have two of those lines in my
startup, but I've got to find the real problem some day too..

Subject: can linux route appletalk over ppp connection?
Date: Fri, 29 Jan 1999 16:27:47 GMT

I have a linux box doing IP Masquerading for a 5 mac
ethernet-appletalk network, to a ppp server.

I would like to know if there is a way to have the linux
machine dial out to an ARA server in our office, and give
those 5 macs access to our file/print servers we have there.

A quick yes or no would help me a lot. Any other information
would be fantastic.

thanks in advance
Ron

ps would it help if I scrapped the ARA server and put in
some other (linux) server?

hey everybody,
ok, i'm new to linux, but i'm learning fast.  is there a program/way to
get linux to recognize novell netware 4.1 networks?  specifically, i'm
at college and would like to be able to access my netware account that
has my web folder and my class folders.  if this is possible, i think i
can spend 99% of my time in linux rather than 98!  and that's pretty
exciting.  also, i'm kinda looking for a no cost solution as i'm a poor
college student with too many student loans...;-)
anyway, thanks for your help
