i'm having rcp problems with nfs. unfortuneately, i have now idea what
rcp is.
ONe of the machines gets a response of
# /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs start

which mirror did you find this on? i just tried caldera, and it's not
there. I've accidentally removed it from one of my machines, and am
trying to move the files from the other . . .

what about including the older, free, version as a package?

that works. I had to do this a few times.

err, forgot about this in the message i just sent.
On these machines, i found that i had to use their own address as teh
network address, rather than the .0 address; otherwise they wouldn't

I can't quite get nfs going for some reason. I had it going quickly
under the 1.2 kernel (i have 2 machines sitting here).
I uncommented everything in /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs. I added / to
exports. I added ALL: .iastate.edu to hosts.allow.
ANd the two machines give me different errors . . .
one more, probably minor thing: with it set up for xdm, it ignores the
.xinitrc file in my home directory. am i missing something obvious?

OK, i've got it. but i think this means i've found a bug, or at least
something that needs fixing.
Under the beta releases with 1.3.9x, the following file is created:
#! /bin/sh
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add 127.0.0.1
IPADDR=129.186.31.38
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=129.186.31.38
BROAD

hmm. i moved /etc/init.d/xdm to a safe place, rebooted, copied the new
kernel & modules from the other machine, rebooted & made minor

I have compiled the 2.0.0 kernel (successfully), but lost my routing
info in the process (coming from 1.3.95). "route" only shows the
machine itself.
If i manually add the missing router & gateway, it works fine, but i
lose this on reboot.
help! :)
