Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hello,
I am desperately looking for help for installing the Diald program.
I am not quit new to Linux, but I didnt succeed in installing Diald.
Also.. when i try to unzip the source and install i get all sorts
of "redefine" warnings and errors.. when i do make depend,
make and make install thereby forfeiting the software all together
The faq's and Howto's and manpages I read did not brought a solution
for me.
They all had a different solution, so now Im totally confused.
I have 2 Windoze machines and 1 Linux server (2.2.1), configures in a
LAN.
I can ping the Linux box and viceversa. It seems to work well.
Now I want those Win-boxes to dialup to my ISP using the Linuxbox as a
dialup server.
I can make a internet-connection on the Linuxbox with chat and pppd
and a script.
Now I want to use Diald to do the job.
Please, can someone explain what config files etc I have to build,
and what the contents is, and where I should place them?
Examples of config file would be great.
I want to use the standard Diald program. No extensions on it or so. I
want to
use the basic program.
I am quit hooked on Linux and desperately want to use diald.
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance

If you're using RedHat, `/etc/sysconfig/network' might be the file you are
looking for.

I installed Linux (RedHat 5.2) on my Toshiba Tecra750DVD notebook and I
have a PCMCIA 3C589C ethernet card.
What should I do now to connect to the network? Should I install driver

Would you please tell me what should I do step by step to be able to
connect to the network.
I seems Linux didn't recognize me network card at all.

You can tell pine to use anything you want for the from: line. I
remember it was mildly painful to figure out and I can't find my old
mail message describing how. The from address is normally not shown
and is protected. There were two entries in the .pinerc that I had to

are you talking full network connectivity (ie: masquerading), or do you just

I don't know what WinGate is, so I'm not sure which you want to do.

Hello all,
i got a 4-Port-Server Card, which is based on a DEC Chip. So far it works
very well, this one card give the abbility to have 4 seperate cards with 4
ips.
The problem is, under windows nt i can bundle all the ports to 1 pipe, so
that i can use 800Mbps fd. But there has to be an special driver installed.
So is there anybody out there who can program this card that it runs the
same way under linux?
Please reply also to my e-mail, because i have no newsgroup account, thanks

I think netconf or linuxconf puts some extra quote marks into files
/etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
None of the parameters seemsto require the quotes around it.

They are 2 systems developed at very different periods.
What I did was to write a little perlscript that reads and parses the
dhcpd.leases files and put the info in a file that makes sense as part of a
DNS conf file. then I have a standart header that also includes any static
mappings used and appends the dynamic part at the end.
it's ofcource little more complex thant that since the serial number on the
file needs to be incremented and in my case the DNS and the DHCP demons runs
on 2 different servers with a firewall in between.
but there are systems in development now that should incorporate there
things.

Seems to me that
1) you are running a caching name server
2) you are blocking DNS port 53
Sendmail needs this to verify domains of outgoing mail.
If e.g. hotmail.com is in the cache (because recently used) no query is
done, so mail will work.
Set up your ipchains to protocol blocked tries.
If I guessed wrong try turning off the whole firewall, just turn on
masquerading and try again.
Hope this helps

There's about a gazillion messages on this group about this, all of them saying
"install the new rpm!". About half a gazillion of those messages are replies to
messages where it is clearly stated that the poster already HAS updated. This guy has
1.3.17pl5, which is actually a LATER revision than the one in the new dhcpcd rpm.
To Olivier, the original poster:
I have made the update that is required for 2.2.1, which includes the v1.3 client. I
seem to have a problem very similar to yours (and I also use the ne2k-pci driver...
Hey I'd bet your provider is either Videotron or Bell Quebec :-) )... I've just
downloaded the source to 1.3.17pl5 and will try that, but since it doesn't work for
you, it doesn't look good for me. I've tried contacting the author of dhcpcd (who I
assume is Sergei Viznyuk), without any luck yet (dns problems it seems). Let's keep
in touch.

Basically, this depends on the media converters themselves. Many
Ethernet hubs have optical uplinks.
Anyway, my experience of comms in industrial environments makes me
very reluactant to use electrical connections of any kind. I would
reccomend fiber instead, even *within* each platform. Things like
welding really disable you, otherwise.

I've got a slightly similar problem. I've got a 2 gig Jaz drive using the

yes and I see in the list is Iomega's parallel to SCSI zip driver. When I

tried to custom setup using address 0x3bc with the same result. I have
gotten it to work in 5.1 before using the command insmod ppa ppa_base=0x3bc
and then mapping it. But never on startup.
Any help is much appreciated.

The residents of Silicon Valley are more confused than usual after a

One of the ads uses the slogan "MS: It's not a software company"
exploiting the fame of a certain company to draw attention to an
altogether worthier cause. Requests to comment on the campaign have been
met by a surly silence by Microsoft which doesn't relish the association
of ideas, but is painfully aware that it can't afford to appear
insensitive over such an issue.
Seasoned IT professionals will have no trouble telling the two MS's apart.
One is a debilitating and surprisingly widespread affliction that renders

Reply-To: "Stephen Davis, P.Eng" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The other thing to keep in mind is that most cable modems are designed to
record the ethernet address of the nic to which they are connected. The
ethernet address is recorded when the cable modem is reset/powered-up. If
the first ethernet address it sees on the net is not the address from the
machine that you are using to connect to the internet you will be locked
out. This same thing will apply if you ever change nics in your internet
connected computer.
I would agree that a second nic and ip masquerading is the way to go. I have
been running my linux box using two nics, ip masqeurading and a cable modem
for almost a year. I haven't even had to touch it.
