I'd just like to add I got one of the NetGear PCI 10/100T cards for $29 at
CompUSA... a DEAL! I've dealt with their tech support and they are competent
as well (in my experience). Because it's MUCH cheaper than 3com or Intel and
has been reliable I've been recommending this card left and right.

The installation papers only mention "other OS's see text files on floppy",
and I overlooked this the first time. They include instructions as a
readme.txt, and even include their own tulip.c file for the kernel... but
you DON'T need this and it could be older than what's in the latest kernel.

The card works great under Linux (sorry I forget the model# of my card), but
if you dual-boot... under Windows 98 you MAY need to set the card to run
with the 16-bit driver. I was a little disappointed about that, especially
since the 32-bit Windows driver worked fine before I rebuilt the system (and
it was Linux/Win95). Oh well, card still works...

Subject: Restricting Internet Mail
Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 11:57:04 -0700

This is just a simple theoretical question.  Can I restrict access as to
who can send  receive internet mail from an internal linux mail server?  

i.e.  I have 70 people on my network, of them only 30 need access to
internet email.  All of them need access to local internal email.  I want
to make it so the 40 people that don't need it aren't able to send or
receive internet email, while the others can and still allowing everyone
to check local mail.

Is this possible?  If so, how might this be done?

Subject: Multi Linux 5.2 + 1 M$ Win 95 Lan

I have 3 Linux 5.2 boxes which consist of:

1 x server (STARFLEET_HQ) which runs samba and is a Win95 Domain
login box.

1 x server (PCLAPA) which runs samba, and controls access to a HP
OfficeJet for the domain (STARFLEET)

1 x server (Laptop_1) which is a mobile linux box, which I use both
at home and at Uni, with switched configurations.

1 x w/s (STARBASE_1) which is the M$ Win95 box.  I would like to know if
it is possible for each of these machines to work together in a single
domain.  I want to be able to rsh into each of the linux boxes from the
server and run remote progs (in parallel) for a Uni assignment, but when
I try all I get is Permission Denied.  Each machine has the sames users:

root, scott each user has the same password.

Please help.

Yours

If someone has any suggestions I would be appreciative...

Here is my system:
Redhat 5.2
2.0.36 kernel
3com 3c509 ISA NIC
ip forwarding enabled
all ip masq options enabled in kernel

Everything network-wise works fine (ftp, samba, httpd)and there are no
error messages in the boot.log except for the following:

cant find module net-pf-4
cant find module net-pf-5

It displays this message several times throughout the boot and shutdown
process. I have checked the modules.dep file and all the modules that are
in that file are also in their correct directories. Is there another module
config file I am missing? Does the 4 and 5 refer to a line in modules.dep?
Thanks for your time...

Linux?  I have tried compiling portmap_4 and portmap_5beta and get

  Hi,

 Thorsten, I forgot to add that the netgroups we work with
are very large, we have hierarchical netgroups, of 17,000 users.

P.S. Nevertheless, it works fine on Solaris, Irix, NetApp filer.

Hello,

Is it possible to run both smtp and pop3 servers on the same machine?
If so, are they able to transfer mail from the one to the other?
We seem to have some problem to implement it.

Feel free to comment.

Thanks
