Sorry. I wasn't thinking. Of course it should be uncommented.
I still have my problem though. And yes, I do have an .rhosts
file set properly. Any other ideas?? There is no rlogin daemon
that should be running or something?

I've seen the problem before too, although I won't
pretend to understand the root cause as well as the
others in this group. In my case, I had installed R.H.
on a drive and subsequently tried to clone another drive
to this one. My cloning operation was less than successful
at clearing the contents of the MBR. Try "fdisk /mbr"
using a dos bootable floppy and then giving the drive a
fresh install.
Hope this helps!

Hi all,
I installed Exceed on a PC to open a Xsession.
The problem is that when I type the command 'startx', my Xsession is
executed on my server Linux and not in Exceed...
Is it a parameter, a command or anything else ?
Thank you for your help.

This isn't just a newbie problem.
Background:
Linux ships with a smaller (and different) fontset than legacy MS
Windows. Most Linux systems don't include TT fonts by default (install
these, you'll love yourself for it -- just copy fonts from the nearest
Win box once you've set it up, IIRC it's OK per the MS font license).
Many web sites f*ck with font settings, specifically using the <font
face= xx size= xx> tag, and either hardcoding a size or differential,
often one or two levels down from the default font selection. Your
problem is that you don't have the specified face, and at the size
specified, fonts are bloody fscking unreadable.
Netscape uses a default font size step of 20%. This results in a
maximum size range of 50% - 200% of normal. By choosing an increment of
5%, you compress this range to ~ 80% - 120% of normal. Most pages now
render readably (and I find the exaggerated scaling differential
annoying and insulting anyway).
Solution:
My fix is to modify Netscape resources with the attached resource file.
It's commented, and fixes a number of bugs with Netscape including the
shopping button. I also select the "fixed" font for all dialogs and
menus, which results in less vertical real-estate lossage. You can find
the unmodified form of this file as "Netscape.ad" under you Netscape
installation directory (run "locate Netscape.ad").
I also use a Garamond variable space font (12 pt) and Courier New
monospace font (11 pt) as my browsing defaults. I *do* have to manually
set the point size of the Courier font each time I launch Netscape, I've
been unable to find out how to set this permanently.
Note that Mandrake also fscks with a number of keybindings under
Netscape. IIRC, the <alt> sequences "O", "R", "L", etc., don't work.
The resource file may fix these problems as well, I'm not sure.
Install it under /etc/X11/Xresources, or in your personal X resources
directory/file.

Hi Trent,
I still do have some ideas on what you can check, make sure that the
/boot partition doesn't crosses the 1024th-cylinder of /dev/hdb, so make
it small (15M) and at the start of the disc. If that doesn't work, you
can try fitting it on /dev/hda by resizing the partition(s) there. You
would still need only some 15M there and all the other partitions could
still be on /dev/hdb. Just a thought, can you create a /home on
/dev/hdb? If you can do this that's a sure hint that you're dealing with
the 1024 cylinder problem. (check the setting in your BIOS too, is it
set to LBA?)

^^^
Just some extra info, if this does look any different on your system,
change it to this partition-type. The type of the extended partition
must be windows ext'd and not linux extended. Otherwise windows probably
isn't able to find any logical partition in there, because it uses the
partitiontypes to assign drive letters to the different partitions.
That's also why some people have (inaccesable) linux partitions showing
up in windows. So use linux ext'd only if there are no windows
partitions inside the ext'd partition, otherwise use windows ext'd

There are a few things you should check:
do all devices have a unique SCSI-ID?
is the SCSI-CHAIN terminated?
is the device working correctly (check in an other PC)?

I have 128Mb of swap partition. and according to the xosview or other
monitoring software. I'm using 8 Mb of swap memory.
Oh yuh, I have 64Mb of ram in my box now ( should be 128Mb, my cousin
borrowing my ram on long term basis ). And I'm running slackware 7 with full
installation. I even have apache running in the background (should really
shut it down, not using it.)

Hi,
I had the same problem...
On a PC with Win and Linux. I installed LILO in the MBR and Norton

fdisk /mbr
Reinstall Linux (update) just to reinstall LILO. It's fast.

Hi,
No don't comment it out leave it alone ;-)
No you don't need to reboot you have 2 options
1/ killall -HUP inetd # the signal tells inetd to re read its config
file - IMHO the real way (TM)
2/ /etc/rc.d/init.d/inetd restart # this stops & starts the inetd
service - as done by rebooting but without actually doing the reboot.
Before trying rsh have you tried rlogin?
If rlogin works and you get a password prompt then you are a
$HOME/.rhosts away from working - rlogin then won't prompt for a
password and rsh, rcp etc will then work.
There are several things to try...
1/ The machine you are logging in from must be known to the other
machine (add entry to /etc/hosts - or make the Linux box get at local
DNS/NIS servers - you may need help from your local Guru for this)
2/ It won't work as root unless you remove/comment out the securetty
lines from files in /etc/pam.d - give thought to the security hole you
have just created and grin if you can live with it ;-)
3/ The /etc/hosts.allow /etc/hosts.deny should be left alone - make sure
they are empty - bar comments (as they are by default)
4/ Make sure package rsh-server is installed (rpm -qi rsh-server) oops
assumed RH - see if 'which in.rlogind' finds anything. On RH6.2 this is
in the rsh-server package. You didn't specify distro ;-(
