Hi,
I run into a similar problem with my SuSE 6.4.
As root I could run NS but not as normal user. With 'strace' I found out, that
NS tries to open a file called: /tmp/ndebug or similar(I can't recall exactly)
and receives a Permission denied which it seems to ignore.
By changing the file permissions to 666 everything works fine.
I hope this points you into a helpfull direction.

Attempting to install Oracle on Linux is not for newbies. It tends to
be difficult enough for folks experienced in both Linux and oracle
(the fact that the Oracle installer is severly broken, has a lot to do
with it).

Slight change of tack....
I looked up details of cable modems and it looks as if they are basic
routers. I guess it has been configured with the ip address of
6.34.213.129 - hence being the gateway address for externally bound routes.
when you ping that address it indicating that is is picking up traffic (rcv
flashes) but does not send it back (no transmit).
Make sure that it is in fact configured as 96.34.213.129/28
(96.34.213.129/255.255.255.128)
Can you telnet to it to configure it (doh, can't ping it = cant telnet
it....). Does it have a serial port to configure it? If you can connect to
it via a serial port and some kind of terminal software (eg MS
hyperterminal) ou may be able to ping from there - try pinging the outside
world and ping the linux box. A standard setup for a router is to have the
first address of a class subnet. Therefore are you sure it's address is not
96.34.213.1 in which case the 28 bit subnet mask would stop it and the linux
box talking.
Have fun :-)

Amit,
This is sacred ground! Those who tread this path are likely to be
tested beyond what a normal man can endure. However the victory will
become a better Kernel against which all will be measured.
After the ascent of your standards you will meet HPux and you will pass
the Oracle, you can then enter the Skybase and beyond the Sun, or else
all will become Micros**t, to be cast into that lake of filthy DOS, the
enemy of all that is nice and decent, open and free.(Don't you just hate
typeover mode). Your quest is almost like that of the great Novell.
Remember to keep the sayings of the array[alpha, arm, i386, m68k,
mips, ppc, s390, sparc, sparc64], but still be found holding the
Crusoe which is cool to the touch.
Uptime is the key, stability of the platform is essential, protection.
Power and strength and unity are found by congregating in ever
increasing numbers, as penguins do. Whilst one has the power of many,
great is the cluster.
The wall of fire even though like a Fortress is not your only defense.
You must not let any but the chosen to touch your keys or even to find a
route into the inner layers. Beware of other entrances through the
crypt.
Cursed is thee who enter in without invitation. Cursed are the MCSE who
corrupt the sacred communications with hidden odes and apis, who force
the inhabitants to swing on that precarious platform, to collaborate in
such a way.
You have been given strength against the viruses that infect the general
populous. Alas, you will be isolated from the day when all are cut down
in their own filesystem, when all are awakened to a better way but for
the bigots who Knash in the pond of netbui, who will never understand
the protocol of control and transmission, who are hung with a little
delay, who are limited to 1 lonely process. We have pity for their
scheduler, with nothing to do.
You will see the devfs demystified whilst traveling 2.4. You will not
see only one unit in every abode, but you will see many! They will have
power to activate and deactivate and thus from afar. You will not smoke
as there is otherwise no place for the device in your pocket, soon to
become even smaller and more powerful. Communications, predictions,
many pleasures and many cunning devices, ahh! you are in the age of
innovation, of freedom, of cooperation. But again beware of greed as
there is much gold. Do not let the fabric be destroyed by fools, O,
cast them out, cast them out.
Remove that bloody hat when thou enters the inner most sanctum; the
kernel. Where it does not matter what be you color or what be your
dialect, all are honored all are made free, all have the gift of the
people, which is for the people and by the people again. Given without
price for all to use all to admire, and all to see. Whose bowels are
constantly caressed by those that are called, whose channels are
rerouted for maximum flow, whose physical being is slim and sleek and
like that of a creature of the sea. Cool, just cool is the atmosphere
in the corporation that employs the kernel in all sanctums. Even the
top of the desk will give place gladly to this environment.
The system requires skill and should be carefully administered, though
defaultly it be not hard. One can do many things and not require great
overhead, one can do all.
We know not what we do. We create we refine we connect. Beware in case
one mortal controls all, beware more if one who was cast out finds the
network a worthy host, we may not find the way to deactivate howbeit
simple. We may need help.

Feel free to start with a good network programming book... you can
easily do it in a shell script, using the 'host' and 'arp' commands. It
only works for directly connected machines.

Say WHAT?
mkisofs, which is the program that does the actual work of creating the
CD's filesystem, creates an ISO 9660 filesystem by default. ISO 9660 CDs
always have all their filenames in 8+3 format. mkisofs has several
options to add Joliet extensions and/or Rock Ridge extensions to the ISO
9660 filesystem. These extensions allow for long filenames (both),
symbolic links, UID/GIDs, and more than 8 levels of subdirectories (Rock
Ridge.) These extensions are supposed to be totally transparent if the
user mounts the CD using an OS or driver that doesn't understand Joliet or
Rock Ridge.
At least, that's what i've found... the Apex DVD player reads CDs full of
MP3s, but it can't handle Rock Ridge or Joliet extensions, so all the
filenames show up as 8 chars only. This device is less intelligent than a
386 with DOS 6.2, so I don't know what the problem could be with your
system.
Another thing to keep in mind is that very old CD-ROM drives may not be
able to read CD-R media, and any CD-ROM made before 1998 has no chance of
reading CD-RW media. All CD-RW-capable CD-ROM drives are supposed to have
the "MultiRead" logo on them, but I've found a few without the logo that
can read CD-RWs just fine.

Subject: lilo problems with Sco openserver 5
Date: Tue, 16 May 2000 15:50:37 +0100
Hi
I have successfully installed Mandrake 7.0 and Windows 98 and have correctly
configured lilo so that I can dual boot.
I have installed Sco Unix but I am having problems trying to get Sco to boot
through lilo. I have installed Sco correctly but I am unsure how to
configure it within lilo.
When my PC boots up if I choose Sco (at the lilo boot prompt) my PC just
hangs!!
Does anyone know where I am going wrong? or do you have any documentation on
how to configure lilo correctly to run Sco Unix ver. 5?
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance
Mark
