Hello,
I have now managed to get Linux to send and receive PINGS from my local network in the
home.
I have 4 computers.......
P200 MMX - WIN96 - 192.168.0.1
486DX2-66 Linux RedHat5.2 - 192.168.0.2
386SX25 - WFWG - 192.168.0.3
486DX33 - Win95 - 192.168.0.4
I can ping the linux box and get replies, I can ping from the linux box and get
replies.
But should I telnet to the linux box from any system, as root, with correct
password, yes it is
correct, all I get is
login incorrect
& then the login: prompt again.
The install is "Install everything" but I leftout the non english How-Tos and other
docs.
And then let redhat do the rest.
What do I need to do to enable me to get full tcp/ip suite across my ethernet??
Also, the P200MMX system has a PPPsharing program to allow internet access from any
computer in the network (proxy server) and I would like to get linux running across
this as well.
Hope you can assist.
I am not frightened to compile and install a new kernel if you think I need to include
something.
regards
Mark
