It's seeems that your problem is that the both cards are in the same
subnet. Try 2 different:
eth0 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.128
eth1 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.128
what do you want to do with this cards?

Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 07:54:24 GMT

Hello,
I configured  my network so, that my users login via NIS and get their
home
directories via NFS.

No problem so far.

But now I upgraded to SuSE 6.2 and run into problems:

1) The old exports file results in no reacrtion from the NFS server,
givin a timeout medssage on the client.

2) Reducing the entries in /etc/exports to
/home (rw)
without any identification of hosts, allows the import of the home
directories at startup time, but I see an error in /var/log/messages:
Sep  6 09:53:24 gym-isernhagen nfsd[154]: Unable to setfsuid -2: Invalid

Sep  6 09:53:24 gym-isernhagen nfsd[154]: Unable to setfsuid -2: Invalid

This behaviour should according to man exports happen, if ther is no
user nobody and no group nogroup available on the system.

BU IT IS.

Any help welcome
Thanks

Hello,

I have a 2 box test TCP/IP network set up. A Linux RH6/Apache-SSL
1.3.9 server and a Win98 client.

I have used an IP address of 169.254.100.20 for the Linux server and
169.254.100.10 for the Win98 box

on the Win98 "Hosts.sam" file I have
127.0.0.1 localhost
169.254.100.10   windowsbox
169.254.100.20   www.mybusiness.com
169.254.100.20   www.myotherbusiness.com

on the Linux server I have in the etc/hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhosts
169.254.100.10   windowsbox
169.254.100.20   www.mybusiness.com
169.254.100.20   www.myotherbusiness.com

the "ServerName" is actually [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have setup Apache web server to have 2 virtual hosts - I'm pretty
sure that the setup is correct because httpd -S lists them correctly
and the syntax check apachectl configtest is OK

I have no DNS set up because I thought, on such a simple setup, the
respective "hosts" files would point to the right boxes.

When I point the browser at http://169.254.100.20/ I get the
index.html of mybusiness.com, this tells me that mybusiness.com is the
default virtual host.  I also can PING 169.254.100.20

Hi,

I'm running RH5.2 and mounting a filesystem from Solaris
2.6.  However I issue the mount, either by hand or when
rebooting, I get the following error messages (on the
console and in syslog) although the mount succeeds.  Why?
People have asked this question before, but I can't find an
explanation.

Haven't had this problem myself, but there's been much discussion in this group
about DHCP and cable modems.  Many people have found that they have to reboot
the cable modem before booting into Linux because Windoze doesn't do a proper
release of the DHCP lease.

Good Luck!

You can share a filesystem across the internet using NFS, but for the
"Network Neighborhood" stuff, I think you need to run Samba.  Haven't
played with Samba at all myself, but I'm sure that there's some good
HOWTO's on it.

Hi

I'm new to networking and need to buy an inexpensive network rack to
hold the patch panel, a hub, a monitor and a few other things --
nothing huge or expensive, just good and sturdy.  A recommendation on
where to purchase a rack would be terrific.

Also, I need two 24 port patch panels, but I know nothing about them.
Can you recommend a brand name and a place to buy them?

Thanks!

Is there any problem if I upgrade kernel 2.0.35 to 2.2.1. on a Redhat 5.1.
machine ?
Should I also upgrade some packages ?
I looked at the Redhad support page for Redhat 5.2 upgrade and it doesn't
say anything about 5.1 upgrading.
Thank You,

cisco 1003 with IOS 12 with a recent maintaince release, ip plus feature set
required for ip nat

or cisco 1603 with a recent maintaince release of 11.3, ip plus feature set
required for ip nat

the performance of both depens entirely of what servives yuo have configured,
but with a basic secure config, they will both easily saturate a 64K pipe as
well as a 128K ISDN bundeled MPPP (RFC1717)  pipe.

also both will handle ip firewalling, wil very little overheads.

Heath Harry.

Subject: can't ping Linux --> win98
Date: Sat, 13 Mar 1999 23:56:42 +0100

I've tried to set up a network the last couple of days. But now I'm at a
standstill.

I do not know where to start.

The network consists of 4 computers. One linux box acting as a gateway with
IP masq. The other comps are Win98. All the win98 comps are configured
correctly and can share files printers etc, but I can't even ping to / from
the linux box.

Linux box = Pentium 60, 3com 3c900, Slackware 3.6, kernel 2.2.3,

I can connect to the internet with the linux box with a PPP script. And from
there I can do telnet, ftp whatever. So there is nothing wrong with the
TCP/IP function on any computer.

The cable (BNC) is working, I used it to connect one of the win98 comps, no
problem.

The card is detected at boot. ifconfig looks good. route aswell. netstat -nr
shows up as expected.

I've tried to just configure one win98 comp so it would be able to ping the
linux box. Removing all non essential stuff. TCP/IP, client for Microsoft
Networks and my ethernet adapter was all I spared. I configured the TCP/IP
like this:
IP address: 192.168.1.3
Netmask: 255.255.255.0 (same configuration as the linux box)
Gateway: 192.168.1.4
DNS:
host: mycomp
domain: zeus.mynet.com
DNSservers: IP addresses of my ISP's nameservres
Bindings: Client for microsoft networks  - check

As for Identification on the win98 box I haven't changed anything. I use the
same comp name as I wrote in the /etc/host file on the linux box.

It could be my 3com card that is simply not working. I'll try that very
soon. But apart from that I d
