DHCP client retrieving 2 IP's

Hi, I recently installed Debian v2.2r3 and I installed the DHCP client as well.. when debian boots, DHCP assigns eth0 an IP (which it is supposed to do, in this case 192.168.1.4) then it also assigns the loopback (/dev/lo) an IP (192.168.1.5). If I look at my DHCP clients table on my DHCP

restarting inetd

Hello, I am a former redhat, turned debian user, and was wondering if someone could inform me how to restart inetd... I am so used to redhat's /etc/rc.d/init.d/ scripts, that I've never started/stoped/restarted services any other way. By reading the inetd man page, I know you have to send it a

getting telnet and ftp working

Thanks, to those that answered my previous question.. I have another question... the reason I wanted to restart inetd is because I am trying to get telnetd and ftpd working. I added the following entries to inetd.conf: ftpstreamtcpnowaitroot/usr/sbin/tcpd

Re: ATA-3 drives

For ATA drives, you need a special ISA card. My HD (Maxtor 3.5) supports it, but I haven't bought the add-on card yet. It supposed to be superFAST (I think almost as fast as SCSI). I think the card is around $70 from CompUSA. Britton wrote: I am looking at buying another system myself. I

As it says on my HD box: Buffer Size: 256KB Average Seek time: 10MS Data Transfer Rate: 33.0 MB/Sec (Ultra DMA-Mode 2) Ultra DMA is also known as Ultra ATA. It has twice the speed of IDE drives. George Bonser wrote: ATA is, I do not think the problem I think ATA is short for ATAPI.
