Subject: Cannot config new NIC.
Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 21:27:20 +0800
I had config a NE2000 compatible NIC(0x300, IRQ 9) during installation of
Redhat. That is fine for this NIC !
Recently, I tried to add another new NIC and that the problem appear.
I follow the book Redhat Linux Unleashed's intruction to config an addition
NIC(3com 509 ISA, 0x270, IRQ 15) through netcfg under Xwindows.
Someone suggest me to add:
append="ether=9,0x300,eth0 ether=15,0x270,eth1"
to the file /etc/lilo.conf.
I did it ! What I received during starting the Linux box is:
modprode: Can't locate module eth1
eth1: unknown interface
I wonder whether there is something important I miss to do.
Would anyone give me any suggestion/information such as HOW-TO, etc ?

We'll have to check your network configuration now.
if you run ifconfig on your linux box, you should get the settings back from
your network card (called eth0).
If you don't have an eth0 section, your card did not initialise (check dmesg
and various messages at startup).How is your network card on linux
configured anyway?
If you have an eth0 section, check the params (same network address?) and
the LED's (if there are led's on the NIC), esp. when you run ping on the
linux box, something should flash. Also try to ping it's own ip on linux
don't worry, probably most of us had the same sort of problems, in a way.
good luck

I successfully installed Linux 5.2 on my old P100 and can now log on as root
from my new Win98 PC. However, although I can see the Linux machine on the
network, when I select it I am asked for a password for the resource
//'servername'/IPC$. I haven't a clue what this is as it isn't mentioned in
the Win95 based Linux book I'm using.
I've tried my root password, no password and everything else I can think of
without success.
Can anyone help?

I checked my logs today as I do everyday and the old logs have been

evidence of a security breach, or was it caused by a normal process.

Here's my two cents: System Commander will work. I believe LILO will do the
trick too. I;m fairly certain that NT's boot loader is not going to see the
Linux and SCO partitions.

It now WORKS.... Thank you.
I have noticed after setting up the /var/log/debug.... file and
syslog.conf files that the messages and debug files have basically the
same info in them....
I appreciate the help, the books I have mostly RH material, never
discussed some of those options you gave me. I'm dissecting them as i
write this to figure out what made it work.

Subject: Re: PCI modems in linux?
Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 18:01:03 GMT
All PCI modems are NOT "winmodems"... winmodems can be ISA or PCI.
The reason they are windows only modems is not because of the BUS type,
but because the engineers who designed them found a way to eliminate
some of the hardware components of the modem and burden the processor
with those chores. In other words, they bog your CPU down because they
wanted to save a few dollars on parts! This type of implementation only
works under Windows because it takes special drivers to make the CPU do
the work.
There are non-winmodem PCI modems. Whether or not they can be made to
work under Linux is a different story...

Subject: Cannot FTP DIRs?
Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 13:12:56 -0500
I have the same network set up at home and at work.
I have Red Hat 5.2 running a server with the same configuration (except
different users)
When i connect via FTP (from windows with CUTE FTP) on my home server i
can transfer WHOLE DIRs at one time. When i try this same process at
work, the server will not alow me to send a DIR. I need to create new
DIR on remote server and then open newly created DIR and THEN transfer
the files i want to send. This is a pain in the ass...
I think it must be some kind of PERMISSIONS problem, but I have the DIRs
on both systems set for all access to everyone.
Please advise... i'm still a semi-newbie :-)
thanks for all your help!

It is possible that you have the NT Challenge / Response Authentication
Method enabled on your proxy server. This check that only users logged onto
the NT domain and that have been authorized to access the Internet can do
so. To change this, you must alter the Authentication Method.
On the MS-Proxy Server, run the Microsoft Management Console and select the
properties fo the Default Web Site. Under Directory Security, modify the
Authentication Method on the to Allow Anonymous Access. This will permit any
client, running any brand of web browser on your internal network to access
the Internet via that proxy server.
You can stop and restart the Web Proxy service to implement the changes, but
if possible, I recommend restarting the server to ensure that the changes
have been applied.
