Subject: Linux Mandrake failing to detect NE2000
Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 04:02:20 GMT
At least I think that it is failing to recognize
it, I am getting a message during boot up that
says:
Intializing Interface eth0:
Interface eth0 nitialazation delayed
I ran netcfg, linuxcfg, tried Mandrake's new boot
image(it doesn't work at all), and examined every
file I can think of.
I know that the card is good, it worked fine under
Win98, right up to the point I installed Linux,
and all other parts of the OS seem to be fine. Any
help would be appreciated.

http://linux-mp.terz.de/ claims to have a patched version of pppd for
multilink. However, i've never tried it myself, so why don't you and report
back to us? =)

1)How can I connect to the internet with 5.2 Red Hat Linux. My computer
is connect with internet on win98 operating system. How about
Linux.
2) When I install, Red Hat 5.2, I used custom but what to practice in
Networking. How can I do this? I do not have another computer or network
card, but is it possible to practice networking?
Please give your help.

Watchguard makes a firewall called a Firebox that is a red box basically
running linux. The interface to setup runs completely on windows and is very
simple to manage. It has 3 10/100 interfaces. One trusted, one outside, and
one optional which is still behind the firewall. The optional is where you can
put web servers and such with their own security and if someone manages to
break it because you tend to have to leave web/ftp servers more open, they
still can't jump into the trusted side.
What you could do, is put a PC running MimeSweeper (e-mail virus scanner) on
the optional side. This becomes your smtp mailer, it's basically a relay, mail
goes to it, gets unpacked, scanned, filtered, whatever, and then thrown to your
real mailer behind the firewall. Outgoing goes from your internal mailer to
the Mimesweeper box to the rest of the world. Seems like a good solution.
check out http://www.watchguard.com for info on the firebox.

Edit your exports file. Note that the no_all_squash option isn't set by
default.
I found :
/export/home(rw, no_all_squash_map_identity)
works OK.

if you are using Samba 2.x.x you might want to try setting security=domain
look at some of the FAQs at www.samba.org. I fgound them to be most
helpful. Better luck with your tests my friend

Several ideas come to mind:
1) Use the Real Audio server. Assuming its still free, you get
that going on the server, and then use Real Audio clients on
the other machines to listen to the broadcast. I've actually
done this before and it works pretty well.
2) You might also be able to do this with Icecast.
It's been awhile since I looked at Icecast, but it might be
able to do just MP3s.
3) Someone else will need to fill in the blank here, but there&

Date: Thu, 11 Mar 1999 12:11:34 GMT
Hi
I've set up a network and it seems I don't get the routing right.
My Linux box got two NIC's installed.
eth0: IP195.xxx.220.50
Subnetmask 255.255.255.248
Default Gateway 195.xxx.220.49 (this is a Cisco router)
eth1: IP 192.168.2.1
Subnetmask 255.255.255
Default Gateway 195.xxx.220.49 (i want it to point to 195.xxx.220.50
but SuSE 6.0 does not allow this)
route -n gives the following table:
Destination Gateway Genmask Iface
195.xxx.220.50 0.0.0.0255.255.255.255 dummy
195.xxx.220.48 0.0.0.0255.255.255.248 eth0
195.168.2.00.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 eth1
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Lo
0.0.0.0 195.xxx.220.49 0.0.0.0 eth0
>From this linux box i can connect to the Cisco router and the internet
(ping 131.220.16.220 etc.) and i can also ping any internal ip's
(like 192.168.2.17 etc.).
I cannot ping 195.xxx.220.50 from this box ( my guess because of the
gateway address).
>From any other internal networked box i can ping 192.168.2.1 as well
as 195.xxx.220.50 ! but i do not get through to 195.xxx.220.49.
I would greatly appreciate it if somebody could point out to me were i
made the error!
(I am running SuSE 6.0 Kernel 2.0.36 ip-forwarding is on)
Thanks

A popular variation on the email client/reader is the web mail client. A
web based mail reader. Does anyone know of a program for linux?

"apend" should be "append". Don't know if that's a typo from your message or
from lilo.conf. And why do you use mem=95M when you have 128Mb of memory?

you can reboot if you wish but i prefer the quick way of
typing
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network stop
wait for it to stop and then type
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network start
with any survice under linux can be stopped and restarted l
