IP Chains question
I have set up a firewall using ipchains and the bridge patch (bridgein) under potato (2.2.19). The one snag I had was although the firewall works well only letting the world see certain ports (80 443), it doesn't let the servers behind the firewall get out. I set up a rule that allows all traffic that originated behind the firewall out, but because we only have a couple of ports open, and we have no clue what port the reply packets are going to come on, the reply packets get denied. I was wondering if there is any way to mark out going packets so we can let them through on their way back? Thanks, Matt
Exim Errors

Two nics, two networks question

Multiple Nics/ Net Connections
Hi, I seem to be having some very odd Nic/Net connection problems. What I have is a server with 2 Nics. One (eth0) is plugged into a cable modem that we are planing on using as a back up connection. The other (eth1) is plugged into our T1 and is our main connection. The problem is that when I enable the T1's card (eth1) we can't get to the cables device any more from the T1 side. It's acting as if there is some weird internal routing going on, but there isn't from what I can tell. Any ideas? -Matt-
Exim and multiple domains
Hi, I have a machine that is serving multiple domains. What I need to have is some sort of separate configuration for each domain. Or what I am really getting at is that I need a separate aliases file (/etc/aliases) for each domain, and some sort of control over who gets mail from a given domain. (I hope this is not to confusing...)

Firewall Box
Hi, I need to implement a firewall at work. It will be for the most part a pretty simple set up. I am going to set one of our Linux Boxes between the Router and the Switch. The Box has 3 NICs, one for the router side, one for the switch, and one for a backup cable connection. We have a block of IPs, and we will need to get to machines behind the firewall from the out side so I don't want to use ipmasq. What I plan on doing is just using ipchains to shutoff any unused ports, and strip the box of any questionable software (ie ssh instead of telnet). Has any one tried such a set up? And if they have could you pass on any pointers or things to watch out for? I also see there are a few packages out there to aid setup, how well do they work?

Raid 1 Problems
Hi, I am running potato and a 2.2.16 kernel on our file server. I have two raid 1 devices set up, each 10 gigs big. The problem is that it does not seem to cleanly unmount/update the superblock when I restart/shutdown (although it says it does). So what happens is each startup it needs to run chkraid, which on two 10 gig md devices, takes a while. thanks, -Matt- +-+ Matt Kopishke [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Foster Laing Noonanhttp://www.flni.com | Waldo Theatrehttp://www.waldotheatre.org | +-+
Back up ideas???
Hi, I am trying to set up a flexable backup system. This requires that the software is multi-platform (Win 98/NT/2000 Linux and maybe MacOS), and it (the server) must be easy to access remotely. What I have now is a decent Machine Running Linux with a lot of disk space. What I would like to do is have every one make a backup of the work they are doing daily, then I can burn a cd weekly for an archive. Is there any thing out there right now that can do this type of job. Thanks, -Matt-
X Terminals

HD Troubles
Hi, I have been having a odd hd problem. I have a machine that has 2 Promise Ultra 66 cards installed plus the on board interfaces. The first card (hde - hdg) works fine. The second card (hdi - hdl) on the other hand does not. When booting the kernel finds the card, and the hard drive attached and sees the partition on it. When I go to format the partition it says that the device is not configured. fdisk also fails. The devices are there (in /dev), I created them with MAKEDEV after installing the card. This is a bit frustrating, it seem like it should work! Thanks, -Matt-
Demand Dialing with pppd and ipmasq
Hi, we are trying to set up a box that acts as a router for our office. I have ppp and ipmasq working.

Is there a smart mirror?
I currently maintain a small debian mirror for a local computer user group. I run mirror daily to keep up with the latest version of potato and woody.

Rather Odd freeze ups (and more :)
I have a not so related Linux question (with the exception that I run Linux) about some really weird, hard, lockups. Here's the deal: I had a ageing Cyrix 586/120 that started to seem *really* slow. Any how, I bought a Abit-BH6 Board, a Intel Celeron 300A, some PC-100 RAM, and used the following hard ware from my old machine : A S3 Trio 64v+ video card, Maxtor HD, and a 3.5 Floppy (there is other stuff, but I don't have it installed to help trouble shoot). So, I plug every thing in and it works, I Recompile my kernel for the PPro, ran some other CPU intensive apps, every thing seemed great, and very quick. That is untill I ran netscape, then the machine crashed (yes crashed!) hard. I can't restart it with the good old ctlaltdel, I have to use the hardware rest switch, and then I found out that other graphic intens apps did the same thing (Gimp, Eterm, etc). It does the same thing in Win95 (I now 95 dies often, but most of the time you can reset it with the ctlaltdel), and I am now completly clue less what to do next. What I have done: I got mad, thought it was a HW problem, and sense the other stuff I had from the other machine was running great untill the day I took it apart, so I sent it all back, and recived new parts, but have all the same problems. At this time, I am thinking video may be the problem, but any suggestions would be greatly appreached, oh, and I am not overclocking it...

Dumb X terminals
Hi all, Here's the story: We (A high school) just received a bunch of 486/66 Compaqs. The idea is to turn them in to dumb X terminals (running StarOffice, and Netscape). They have small hard drives (200mb), 16 md of RAM, 3 Comm Ethernet cards, and vga (svga?) + Monitors. I was thinking that the base system could sit on the drives, and maybe some of the X files (hehe, sorry). But when xdm fires up X, I would like it to connect to our Linux server, (not the local machine). Is this possible, can some give me a few pointers.

But I make the Disk from 1440.bin with Rawrite2, reboot, watch it load root.bin, then load Linux but then I get this error (I included the last line thatt was completed for references): VFS: mounted root (minix filesystem) Bug in Dynamic linker ld.so ../sysdeps/i386/dl-machines.h: 307:elf_machine_lazy_rel Assertion '!unexpected PLT reloc type' failed! I installed Bo on this machine with out a hich, and had it upgraded to Hamm using the same CD, but I wanted to do some re partioning, and now I can't install Hamm on my new partions! This is a Cyrix 586, I have heard of problems with the Cyrix's and floppys, could this be it, or is there somthing wrong here?

Re: a few more questions
Could you help me with the following: 1. how can I, using Linux and X11 read e-mail from other people who send it to me via my ISP (uses POP) Try Pine, works for me. 2. What is a good soundcard which is $40-$50 that works well in Linux and Win95? No Idea. 3. Does Netscape 4 install correctly under Hamm? I would like to try to install the .deb file containing this program but I know that it is an installer, and when I had BO it complained about not being in some temp dir. What if any, is the special config for this? Sorry, haven't installed it yet. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: emacs *very slow* to launch
This is the behavior I've come to expect from emacs. Eighteen Megs And Constantly Swapping. It's a huge app! What sort of hardware do you have? What version of Emacs? I wouldn't run it on anything sub-pentium, myself. I run Emacs on 586/120 an it seems very snappy... Mabe try fireing up dselect and reinsalling it, or updateing it if there is a later verison. -Matt- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midcoast.com/~kopishke http://169.244.147.29 MSAD#40 Home Page http://169.244.147.29/ss/MVHS Seed Savers Project http://169.244.147.29/MVCUG/Medomak Valley Computer User Group *If it says Windows 95 or better install Linux!* Apple Forever! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

XFree86 problems
I have been having problems with X, the last time I installed Linux, I installed the XFree86 packages that as far as I can see are required to run X (the Standard Fonts, FVWM, the svga server, and what ever eles dselect told me I needed), but after runinng XFree86Config, when it goes to graphic mode, my screen goes crazy, it has many moving, blue lines, and it even messes up the other terminals. Should I fire up dselect and try to get a new (if ther is one) copy of XFree86, and if so what should I get? Or use what I have and find out it was some stupid little thing I for got/did not see?
