I have the following LAN setup:- athlon 192.168.0.10 Windows 2000 server 192.168.0.100 Rehat 9.0 backup 192.168.0.15 Windows 2000 laptop DHCP W98SE
These interface with Internet via a Netgear RT314 router, with DHCP activated with up to 9 addresses. All PCs, inlcuding the RH9 have the fixed ip addresses and the host names put in their hosts files. I am not running a domain but have set the Windows PCs under Workgroup rather than a domain name. The RH9 machine I just put the name, server in the etc/hosts file along with its ip number. Some programs on the RH9 seem to be "grizzling" about such a setup, i.e. sendmail commenting on lack of fully qualified domain name. I also have a situation where transferring data from the Windows 2K to the RH9 goes well (100MB LAN) but coming back it is dead slow, about 3 minutes for a 10MB file. Should I set up a domain on my LAN, would it make things easier to set up and what software would I use?
