Since installing the latest "kppp" that comes with KDE, my computer is
constantly trying to dial out. If I start kppp at the right time it
will work, but usually it says the modem is locked. When I checked my
/var/log/messages file it shows that ppp is trying to dial out
constantly and keeps timing out. Also, when I simply turn on the
external 33.6 modem, after a few minutes it will dial out and make the
connection. But to disconnect I have to grep ppp and kill that process.
I have tried unistalling and re-installing all the KDE apps. I used the
rpm versions to install them all.
Any ideas? Kppp is handy for connecting from home and my wife and kids
use it, but I'd like to see it better developed.
I'm using RedHat 5.2 with KDE 1.0. I never had this problem under RH
5.1 or using the Beta versions of KDE. Any ideas?
Thanks.
KJ

I am a newbie when it comes to compiling simple c code.
I have downloaded several port scanner apps, each in
c code and I have tried to compile several of them, with
two exceptions, they wont compile. One such problem app
is reflscan.c, a tcp port scanner.
As I say, I am a newbie at this - no makefile - so here is
an example of one of my compile tries, with errors:
[patrick@localhost utils]$ gcc -w reflscan.c -o reflscan

reflscan.c:236: field `tcp' has incomplete type
This app provides a tcp port scan in incomplete format
to try to avoid being logged. I am not certain if this
might lead to some of the problem or not. Mostly, I assume
it is a question of editing the c file or using the proper
switches.
Attached is a copy of the code.
I am running RH 5.2 with the latest updates (which may
also be a source of the problem?).
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

I didn't say that Linux is a ripoff. I said that if you're being
charged $50 for it you're being ripped off. Since its available at a
national chain for $13 less why pay $50 for it?

I'll go along with that if you admit that it is a valid competitor for
Windows. Many of the Linux guys want to have it both ways. When
discussing price they want to claim that it is competition and want to
include it but when you cite it as competition for Windows they claim
that it doesn't count since it isn't a monolithic product from a
single company. All I'm looking for is some consistency.

This si the heart of the matter. Most people don't compare OSs. They
look to see what apps they want and find something to run it. You can
have the technically best operating system in the world but if it
doesn't have the software I want out for it I'm not going to use it.

Not really. I've seen how industrial products are designed-its just a
big mess. Someone who won't shutup can get his dream feature included
no matter how irrational it is. I imagine software at a large company
like Microsoft isn't much different. With Linux, everybody can stuff
whatever they want into it . Its easy to see how that would appeal to
the computer professional/enthusiast crowd.

sure it was at&t based. berkeley didn't rewrite everything, they just
added some stuff. thus sunos just came from at&t code via berkeley.
at&t unix -> bsd -> sunos up through 4.

Most of the Indian deaths were caused by disease. While that doesn't
their deaths any less tragic, it most certainly wasn't a planned
cold-blooded genocide like the Holocaust.
The only case in which Indians were given contaminated blankets in
order to infect them, that has any evidence to support it, was done by
a British general during the French and Indian Wars not Americans.
Even in thatcase its doubtful that was the cause of their infection as
smallpox was already in the area.
