Quite an interesting twist - but still twisted. Governments do not "create"
markets, they simply protect the rights of individuals, their property, etc.
The government protects me from you taking a club to my head. They have not
"established" my life (or my head).

I was setting up a computer for a friend when I ran into a problem
getting connected to an ISP by ppp. I always get a modem CONNECT, but I
can only login about one in three connects. Once I'm in, pppd works
fine. I have tried this with three differant ISPs, all with the same

kppp), but I can still only get in every once in a while. I changed the
modem speed, flow control, timeouts, etc., all to no avail. Here is an

I am fairly new to Linux and I would eventually like to replace our Novell
file servers with Linux in a small office environment.
Is there a Windows 9x client available for this purpose? Something like
the Novell Client would be wonderful, or is it more complicated than a
simple client to access files on a Linux server from a windows network?
If you know of any freely available, I would like to get the URL so I
could give them a try at home.
Any help would be appreciated.

You need to use samba on the server side and Microsoft client for Microsoft
Networks which is included in all Windows 95/98/NT's to allow the
workstations to log in. Your probably using the client for ms networks now to
share files between the workstations.

I was wondering: is there a way to create another user account with root priviladges
but with a different name?
I've tried creating another user (called "jim" for example) with user id set to 0
(like root), but when I access that account, a "whoami" reveales that I am root. This
is not what i want - i want it to say i am "jim". Is ther any way to do this?
I'm running RH Linux, kernel 2.0.36.

Markets depend upon people cooperating and agreeing to a common set of
rules, no more.
What you seem to be saying is that people only cooperate when forced
to by governmental force.
I don't believe this to be true.

Kppp is a bit buggy and that could be a problem...
you can set your networking properties using YAST by entering your isp
domain and DNS under
system admin > network configuration. See section 6.0 of the manual.
For what it's worth I started with SuSE6.1 knowing nothing about Linux and
had the machine set up in a couple of days. The manual is excellent. I am
having a whale of a time configuring the machine to my hearts content.

That's exactly what I did (I even have Chip Bits RH CDs). Proceed with
install as usual, at one point it'll ask you if you want to install or
upgrade. Answer "upgrade". All your settings will stay.
The only problem I found - for some reson it removed my alias

Subject: software raid0 and bm-dma problem
Date: Fri, 13 Aug 1999 18:22:51 +0200
Hello all,
First of all, pardon me, this is (nearly) a kind of cross posting, but
it's a serious problem and this posting is the "extended" version.
I have a really strange problem with software-raid and bm-dma since I
have
upgraded one of my harddisks.
System description:
Mainboard: GigaByte 586-HX 1.56 with Madex cpu adapter and AMD K6-III
400, 160 MB ram, Intel HX (Triton II) chipset.
OS is Suse 6.0 with kernel 2.0.37, that makes "old" raidtools and mdtab
format.
Disk hda is the new drive, a Maxtor 15 GB udma-66 drive with 7.200 rpm.
It is connected as a single drive to ide channel one. It replaces an
older IBM Deskstar 3.1 GB ide drive.
I know that the mainboard is maxed out with either pio mode 4 or multi
word dma mode 2 (max. 16.6 MB/s each).
Disk sda is a Seagate Medalist pro 6.2 GB uw-scsi drive with 7.200 rpm.
Disk hdc is a 2.5 GB Seagate Medalist pro ide/ata drive and connected as
master (slave ist a creative 32x cdrom) to ide channel 2.
bios modes are set to auto for all drives.
Raid-0 device md0 consists of /dev/hda6 and /dev/sda2 with approx. 11.8
GB capacity.
Raid-0 device md1 consists of /dev/hda5 and /dev/hdc1 with approx. 4.4
GB capacity.
Raid-0 chunk sizes are the 4k default.
Ext2-fs block sizes are the 1k default.
I use the following commands in /etc/rc.d/boot for both drives:
hdparm -d1 -X34 -W1 -m16 -k1 -K1 -A1 /dev/hdx
This enables dma, sets dma mode to multi word dma mode 2, enables write
caching, sets block mode to 16, keeps these drive settings beyond (ide)
reset, enables read ahead mode.
The problem:
There have never been errors with my old ide-first channel + ide second
ch. raid-0 using the ibm and seagate ide disks. The raid 0 performance
boost was remarkable then.
There are no errors of any kind for /dev/md0, the mixed scsi-ide raid-0
device md0 which is by far the quickest one.
Using device /dev/md1 I always get ide resets (e.g. 6 to 10 resets with
"bonnie -s 300") with disk hda (the new Maxtor drive). A fsck /dev/md1
at startup gives tons of reset statements.
The error says (out of memory) irq timeout - reason 0x0d - and then "ide
reset succesful" if "keep settings" is activated via hdparm and "dma
disbled" if not
I have already played around with different settings of hdparm, changed
the ide cables several times, used different bios settings - all to no
avail. I recompiled the kernel with different options, used the older
2.0.36 - without any success so far.
I used different block and chunk sizes for md1 and the ext2 file system,
too. Surprisingly for me, if chunk and block size are both 4k, it works
best, but even then not error free (still one or two ide resets with
"bonnie -s 300")
There are no errors of that kind (but inferior performance) if I disable
multi block transfer on hda with "hdparm -m0 or -m1 /dev/hda".
But again, using the same drive (another partition of course) in
/dev/md0 together with the scsi disk, everything works fine, even with
hdparm settings for best performance.
If I wouldn't use the -k1 and -K1 (keep settings) switches with hdparm,
the drive would be resetted to the worst values, performance then is
much lower, of course with both raid devices as well as the (non-raid)
root partition.
I don't have the slightest idea what's going on here.
Any help will be appreciated! Please help.
TIA and best regards
Gerhard

Do you have the appropriate driver available either compiled into the
kernel or as a module? If yes, is it setup correctly regarding the I/O
and IRQ?

Another potential problem :
If your kernel is newer than the one in RedHat 6, you will lose any enhancements
the newer kernel provided....I cannot upgrade because the RH6 kernel fails to
find my PCI/SCSI drives...the RH6 kernel seem to have a problem ( as did the
original 5.2 one) with my setup, so I continue to use 5.2 ( now at kernel
2.3.12) )
