I have got Apache up and running to learn how to run a website. Today, I got
everything working to access it dynamically, since I get my IP via DHCP. I
thought I'd add a page counter to test out CGI stuff. That has failed
miserably, and I can't for the life of me figure out why.
I first tried the Simple Web Counter (swc), and then I tried Poorcount. For
Poorcount, I found RedHat RPMS for it and gracula. Those appear to be
installed correctly; I can execute the poorcount scripts from the command
line. I can't get Apache to do so. I have checked every directory for 755
permissions, and changed the owner of the poorcount scripts to nobody. I am
assuming the problem is with my Apache configuration. I have tried different
options for the cgi-bin directory, to no avail.
From my httpd.conf:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/"
Directory "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/"
Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
/Directory
My website can be accessed by calling up this URL:
http://www.bigfoot.com/~brihall
which will redirect to my machine.
When I call up the webpage, I get this error in the Apache error log:
[Sat Jun 26 17:48:52 1999] [error] (13)Permission denied: exec of
/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/poorcount/green.gcl failed
[Sat Jun 26 17:48:52 1999] [error] [client 208.234.80.213] Premature end of
script headers: /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/poorcount/green.gcl
Help would be greatly appreciated!

This may seem as a simple question for some but...
When using the Internet namespace, is it neccessary with an internet
connection. Or is it just neccesary to have the correct headerfiles and
so on.
What is a namespace anyway. Is it just one way of saying the adress is
like this and the protocol is this a.s.o.

Hello,
Can you include output of ifconfig -a from your Linux machine, also
netstat -rn and IP configuration of your DSL router.
Thank you.

Hi Andrey,
I have tow ethernet cards because one is supposed to be for the LAN and the
other is to connect the Cisco router. I currently have the router hub
connected to the hub which is only temporary. I want the router to be
connected to the Linux machine and use IP masquerading and a firewall.
I cant get the Linux box to work on the internet with DSL.
I am really new at this and have tried everything. I would think with the
router connected to the eth0 card, I should be able to ping the router at
10.0.0.1 or .2. But I cat seem to do it. I am a little lost on what to put
on the routing portion of netcfg.
Thanks for the reply.

Hello,
I don't understand the purpose of the second net card. Looks like the
first
card is on the subneted part of the network on which your second card is.
But in general what is exactly your problem?
Richi wrote in message ...
I have some new info and I will recap some of the old for any newcomers.
I
still haven't got it to talk yet, but learned some valuable info.
First the Linux box has two network cards (eth0 and eth1)
The eth0 card is configured as 192.168.1.1 with a netmask of
255.255.255.0
The eth1 card is configured as 192.168.1.2 w

Go to $HOME/.netscape. Edit preferences.js and look for
user_pref("browser.bookmark_file", ...). Enter the file that´s

hello
has anyone had any luck getting the sb1200 external modem by GI to work under
redhat 5.2? Ived tried using dhcp etc...setting it up via control panel
etc...and nothing seems to work. apparantly it stores a webpage at
192.168.100.1 as i can see under windows. but when i attempt to connect to the
page in linux, it tells me "network is unreachable". I use the following, but
it doesnt seem to work:
#! /bin/shIPADDR="192.168.100.2"# REPLACE with YOUR IP
address!NETMASK="255.255.255.0" # REPLACE with YOUR
netmask!NETWORK="192.168.100.0" # REPLACE with YOUR network

you# have one. If not, leave blank and edit
below.GATEWAY="192.168.100.1" # REPLACE with YOUR gateway
address!/sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask
${NETMASK}/sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK} netmask ${NETMASK} eth0/sbin/route

Subject: e-mail stress (sendmail or qmail)
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 01:03:37 GMT
I'm not new to linux, I've been running Linux for 5 years se be as
blunt and technical as you like.
I am curently running sendmail with no relaying allowed. this is
however unfortunate for all my local users running windows.
whenever they send mail, they get a relay denied. the system will
accept e-mail from anywhere to local and from local to anywhere so
long as the e-mail originated on the local machine.
I need a sendmail.cf file that will allow smtp connections from
anywhere to send to anywhere so long as the return address is to the
local machine or the e-mail is addressed to the local machine.
I tried qmail but had the same problem. e-mail from localhost works
perfect but not from a remote host on the local net.
I've been watching the news groups for a while and have tried several
solutions but none to solve this.
I've triel relay_allow but that only allowed users to send outgoing
mail to {relay_allow} I tried relay deny but spammers keep makeing up
new domains. I have a relay deny file almost a meg in size but with a
open relay using domain validation and relay_deny, spammer are still
getting through using my mail server
