I hate to bug you guys with what seems to be a crassly newbie question,
but here goes:
On the HOWTO, it mentions how to compile and configure IPMASQ
if you don't have it, but it doesn't tell you how to start it up if it
comes
included with your distribution. Do I have to edit my rc.local file?
Or is there something else I have to "turn on" to get it to work?
I have already configured two ethernet cards, and the IP's etc...
I think this is it for me to be up. Thanks.
John

Assuming all machines are on the same class address,
192.168.1.1[2][3][4] broadcast of 255.255.255.0 for instance, they will
not go to the default router, they'll just talk to each other for
anything sent to the LAN addresses. Linux box does not even have to be
on or plugged into the internal LAN.
All of your boxes should show a default route of the LAN side of the
Linux box, the Linux box should show a default route of whatever your
ISP gave you, or your eth1 (or whatever your internet connection NIC
is.)
No, if you do not set a default route, you will not get wherever it is
you want to go. Within the subnet of your LAN everyone can talk to
everyone else, if it's not one of those, where will the packet go? The
Linux box will not just take packets not addressed to it.

Subject: Activate NIC at boot
Date: Thu, 29 Jul 1999 07:37:09 GMT
Hello, I've got 3 3c905B NICs in a Mandrake 6.0 w/kernel 2.2.9-19MDK
(original kernel from distribution). My problem is that every time I boot, I
have to start X, run netcfg and activate all NICs. I check the "Activate at
boot", but it still won't do it automatically.
So, I figured there is some obscure script that takes care of it, but which,
and what is the proper syntax to get it to auto-activate?
Thanks in advance!

_if_ you have the Primary and Secondary set correct and enabled inside
of XISP (look through all settings to be sure it is), then it should
working correctly. Unless for some reason your ISP changed the
address of your DNS :)

Date: Wed, 05 May 1999 00:14:16 GMT
Hi there,
I am trying to find out how I should go about setting up a
network connection between my Linux box and my NT4 WS.
The WS has the modem attached, the zip disk etc and I would like to
access these from the Linux box (much slower) rather than put the
modem on the Linux box and go the other way (for the moment anyway).
Do I need to use Samba (that I have been reading so much about here)
or is there an easier/different way?
I will be useing 2 NE2000 coax cards

Perhaps this question is a bit of a newbie question but I will ask any
way.
If one changes configurations for Samba (or any other networking
service) how can one restart the services with the new configuration
without rebooting?
Thanks in advance,

Subject: Apache password authentication
Date: Tue, 4 May 1999 17:43:44 -0700
Hello,
I can't seem to get Apache to ask me for a password. When I try to go to
the directory IS_ONLY my browser gives me a 500 Internal Server Error and
says: need AuthName: /IS_ONLY/
Inside IS_ONLY I have a .htaccess file containing the following:
require user mark
"AccessFileName .htaccess" is set in my srm.conf
"mark" is in my .htpasswd file which is being pointed to by access.conf
"AllowOverride All is also set.
My question is, do I have to write code to get Apache to give me a password
dialogue box or should it do that itself? If it should, why isn't it?
Thanks for any help,
Mark

What was your problem?
I can't see the linux computer under win95.
someone told me I have to install netbios over TCPIP but
I can only install netbios over IPX.

Well, to be honest, I wasn't really that impressed, and there were some
glitches that I didn't feel like sorting out. So, out it went.

I'm not sure what version of RPM I've got - I'm not in front of it at the
moment. However, it came stock with RH 5.2.
When I encounter that issue, I do use --force. Couldn't proceed without it!

My conspiracy theory was that GTE was in collusion with BillG. I called
again yesterday and got a different sales rep. She said that win95 works
but win98 doesn't do dhcp competently. Then she said what the other
guy should have, that you're on your own with win98(etc. linux etc.),
instead of saying it won't work and get out of town.
