Re: [expert] How to install firewall?
Yeah, be sure to read _carefully_ the license. What a rip! Try something that is actually free, like Freesco (www.freesco.org). Runs on a floppy, or from the hard drive. Basic floppy install takes less than 10 minutes if you have all the information you need, and no oddball hardware. Otherwise it takes 15 ;) Monte "Bruce E. Harris" wrote: If you really want security, your firewall should be on another computer strictly devoted to that one function. As firewall on your desktop is better then nothing, but not as much as you would think. Go to my website and you will find a link to EDGE firewall/router by Fireplug. I have this desktop running behind an EDGE firewall. As a bonus, it is also a router for my home network using IP masq. Pretty slick. The software is free for download, and the hardware can be a 486 with a floppy and 16mb of RAM or harddrive version (more tools and the like) on a 486 with 32mb of RAM.

[expert] Firewire for Linux?
I have 2 computers. A PC that is my main box and, a shiny new G4 mac that dual boots OS 9 and and Yellow Dog Linux. I am at the point of trashing OS 9 and going completely Linux on it. Here's my question. I have a 10 GB external firewire Hard Drive that I'd like to hang off my PC(I know I should've gone SCSI). I've confirmed drivers for Windows NT and 9x, but I am having a hard time finding anything for Linux. Is is possible to hang the external and use it in Linux, or do I need to leave it on the G4 and use it as Network storage? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [expert] Defrag counterpart in MDK
there is a program called 'defrag' which does what you want. There are a couple of caveats, though. A) Pretty much un-necesary w/ a decent filesystem like ext2 (what about ReiserFS?) B) You have to unmount the filesystem you want to defrag before you start. You can't defrag on the fly. That may work on a single-user system like Win9x, or NT/2k where remote users don'tactually log on to the server like in *nix, but in a multi-user OS, it's generally considered a bad Idea.

[expert] Suggestion
My friend wants to make a linux server with Oracle 8i, which can be accessed for students with windows client, for an Oracle Class. The hardware is a dual P III 800 Mhz, with 1 giga RAM , and RAID 5 controller, with 5 X 8 giga = 40 giga total. Is there any idea what to install on the server, so students with windows client can access it ? I'm planning to install Samba, Mars NWE (there is an existing Novell Network). Is there any problem with the ODBC then ? Beside that, can the server boot directly from the RAID devices, or should I use other storage with is not connected to the RAID Controller ? Thanks.

[expert] Problems with Rage Pro 128 w/7.1
We have two brand new Dell machines here that are identical except for mouses and monitors. I installed 7.1 and chose to try XFree 4 and everything worked fine. The other machine we have had nothing but problems with trying to install Linux (neither the COL2.4 nor RH6.2 graphical installs worked). Did an mdk7.1 install on the problem machine and chose XFree 3.3.6 instead since the owner wanted less problems. Ho, ho. However, when the machine boots mdk, it hangs when X is starting. I was seeking advice about how to best approach this. Obiously, we need to try to change the X configuration. Is there a way to prevent mandrake from going into the graphical startup (xdm/kdm) during the bootup? (Could neither kill X nor get to console once it attempted to start up.) Once we can get a console, any suggestions on what we might tryu? (The machine's owner isn't willing to spend lots of time fussing, and, well, it isn't *my* machine.) Also, doesn't the boot disk that is created during the install allow you to boot up so that you can mount the system on the hd and work on it? I thought that was the point of the rescue option, but that asks for an image disk to use for the root filesystem. What is it looking for? Thanks, Norm

Hello experts I beg you to forgive me for my outbirst in "helium - deeper inhalation". In a moment of insight I thought that my harddrive might be faulty.

Other functions have features that are only available with certain versions of IE. Welcome to DLL Hell, squared.

I don't think it is just a library issue. For one thing, I believe in order to be POSIX compliant, you have to be able to seek from any point in a file to any other in one function call (which is why I immediately looked at the man page for lseek). To do that for a file of size greater than 2 GB, you have to have a way to indicate more than 2 GB to the lseek function, and that means either using a single 64 bit value for the input, or using (as NT does) two 32 bit values (yucch). It can be done, obviously. However, either solution would break a lot of existing programs, so it is the sort of thing to do only at a major revision. - - - Original Message - - From: Charles Curley [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Sent: Monday, June 12, 2000 12:39 PM - Subject: Re: [expert] files larger than 2 GB - - I would appreciate information about the possibility of creating - files - - larger than 2 GB. - [snip] - It is a Linux kernel limitation on 32 bit architectures (e.g. 80x86) - [snip] - I seem to recall somewhere reading that this wil be addressed in the 2.4 - kernels.

[expert] Backing everything up
I'm trying to find the best method for backing up my vital files from my server to a writable CD. I am using Mandrake 7.02 and I am wondering if there is a common procedure for backing up things like pop3 mail users, settings, linux configuration, or any other thing I can't think of right now. Manually selecting files to back up is very tedious, and I'm hoping there is a better way to do this.. and even if I wanted to back up my user settings (like users that only have pop3 accounts) manually, I wouldn't know how to do this while maintaining their status. How do I do that? Thanks. james
