Re: telnet from linux to win95

1998-03-21 Thread Chi Wong
Are you sure you know what you are talking about? You can telnet to a unix
machine from windows 95. You can't telnet from Linux to win95. First of all
win95 has no option to accept telnet and it is not a server. You could do
it with NT if you have like OpenNT installed ontop of it.

Re: Port Scanning

1998-02-25 Thread Chi Wong
I think you could design a perl script or some kind of script for that if a
icmp/udp/tcp is being done to your system at x amount of time you could use
ipfwadm to block it. ipfwadm is a very powerful tool. I used to be port
scanned daily and icmp attack, use ipfwadm to block it.

Re: Matrox Millenium II again

1998-02-24 Thread Chi Wong
I think Xinside Accelerated X 4.1 supports the Matrox Series. I thikn it is
overall better than XFree86 since most of the drivers are optimized for the
specific cards. 

check it out youreself  www.xinside.com

The package doesn't come free though. It cost $100 but I think it is well
worth it.

Re: Linux + NT

1997-11-14 Thread Chi Wong
Well, you could install NT onto of Win95. Meaning that you install in the
same partition of Winp5 but it gets confusing later on as you might have to
install software for both NT and 95. If you want trully NT and Linux. Kill
the 95 partion and install NT first on the first partition and Linux next.
You could use a program called bootpart that will allow the NT boot manager
boot up both NT and Linux. Or in other situation. Split the three partition
evenly. First partition Win95, the second NT, and the third Linux. Figure
out actually how much space you want to dedicate to Linux. You might not
need the full 1 gig, I got my to install with most of the stuff and
networking using 300 megs of hd space plus a 100 mb of swap.

Looks like it is supported. The only real way to find out is test it your

Re: Linux/NT Dual Boot

1997-10-29 Thread Chi Wong
There is a way the NT bootloader will work with booting up Linux
and NT. First you install NT, whatever you want NTFS or FAT16, then
install Linux. When you install Linux do not tell Linux to boot up
using Lilo. Instead bot of a disk. There is a program called bootpart
that will allwo you to boot Linux using the NT bootloader. You have to 
configure the Linux Lilo inorder to do this. 

The page you want to look into is
http://www.winimage.com/bootpart.htm

Forget about System Commander, this is free

Re: ssh

1997-10-10 Thread Chi Wong
Actually it does exist. A person here responded to me to look for it on the
debian us web page and search for ssh . It shows up but in another non us
site. ssh I believe is distributed out of the us. should be in non us
debian, stable. The wierd question is that why is ssh outside the us debian
package. How does it violate the import/export of encryption products? I
know FreeBSD and other unixes include it on there ftp site.
