Does `ipchains -L input` report any firewall rules that we're not
seeing?

Hi,

I have this Compaq ISA ISDN card which I can't get running. I guess the
card ran under Windows (i.c. with Teles 16.3 driver) with IRQ 3 and IO
addresses 2280-22BF, 2580-259F and 21A0-21A0. It identificates as
"Compaq ISDN S0 ISA Card".

With pnpdump I get these configurations:

  (IO 0 (SIZE 64) (BASE 0x2000) (CHECK))
  (IO 1 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x2100) (CHECK))
  (IO 2 (SIZE 1) (BASE 0x2180) (CHECK))
  (INT 0 (IRQ 9 (MODE +E)))

  (IO 0 (SIZE 64) (BASE 0x2000) (CHECK))
  (IO 1 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x2100) (CHECK))
  (IO 2 (SIZE 1) (BASE 0x2180) (CHECK))
  (INT 0 (IRQ 3 (MODE +E)))

  (IO 0 (SIZE 64) (BASE 0x2180) (CHECK))
  (IO 1 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x2480) (CHECK))
  (IO 2 (SIZE 1) (BASE 0x2090) (CHECK))
  (INT 0 (IRQ 3 (MODE +E))

  (IO 0 (SIZE 64) (BASE 0x2280) (CHECK))
  (IO 1 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x2580) (CHECK))
  (IO 2 (SIZE 1) (BASE 0x21a0) (CHECK))
  (INT 0 (IRQ 3 (MODE +E)))

All of these give the same problems:

I got this answer on the ng comp.security.ssh :

I have two redhat machines networked. One of them I was able to
configure ssh with rpm. That machines client and server work fine. On
the other, I had to compile from source due to endless dependency
issues(no X, server install). The client works, but I get permission
denied errors when attempting login into it. I have sshd.pam in
/etc/pam.d .

>>>>> "root" == root  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:

The file must be named "/etc/pam.d/sshd", not "/etc/pam.d/sshd.pam".

Did you get PMFax lite to work?  I can't change the port.

Subject: Upgrading rpm
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2000 04:49:50 GMT

Hi Guys (et al)

I'm running SuSE 6.2. It's installation of rpm is 3.0.3
What I want to do is upgrade the Samba package, or any other).

The samba *.rpm was apparantly done with rpm (vers 4) hence
my rpm refuses / complains.

Trying to upgrade my RPM (by using rpm's vers.4 .rpm) likewise results
in whining and refusals.  I've been doing some reading on the subject
(redhat.linux.rpm and I've been to rpm.org) but the more I read the
less certain I am about which way to turn. Seems as though this change
is going to cause some widespread anguish?

Is there an easy way to solve my problem?
Help is greatly appreciated being a newbie -)

I have been using Realplayer with Netscape 4.75.  I recently downloaded
version 6.0 but cannot get Realplayer to work with it.  I have properly
installed Realplayer (the .so file is in Netscape 6.0 plugins directory,
etc).  However when I type "about:plugins", it doesn't show the realplayer
plug-in to be installed.   To see Real Audio content, I have to manually
type in the location of the Realplayer application everytime I click on the
real audio link.

I have the same setup, works just fine.  The problem is that from the 6.0 and
6.1 cd's pump is broken, badly.  Get and updated version of pump, here's the
one that is working for me (rpm -ivh
http://packetfilter.dynip.com/pump-0.7.8-1.i386.rpm).  Seems that off of the
6.2 cdrom things work as they should.  Of course this is not the package your
trying to use, but if your willing to switch it should work.

Chad

Subject: Re: Can't install Win98 after I've installed Linux. Help.
Date: Tue, 04 Jul 2000 22:16:25 GMT

I would go with this choice.  From the top of my head, here are the steps 
you'll probably need to take.  (If anyone who is reallly comfortable with this 
stuff knows better, PLEASE look over the advice I'm about to give.)  Now, 
Vincent, before that scares you too much, I want you to know that I think the 
worst that is likely to happen is that you have to swap the drives back since 
we don't actually change anything unless it boots up ok.

First, lets make a lilo boot diskette.. put in a floppy and as root do:

/sbin/lilo -c -b /dev/fd0 -d 1000
(install lilo on /dev/fd0 and wait 10seconds at prompt before starting)

Next we'll confirm what drives are where...

/sbin/sfdisk -l   
(that's a lowercase L, not a one)

If you have one IDE drive on each IDE port, you should see some references to 
/dev/hda and to /dev/hdc.  Note what the device name of your new drive is 
since it will be the Linux boot/root drive after you swap drives around.

Now go ahead and swap the drives.

Leave the LILO boot floppy in and start up the system.  At the LILO prompt, 
type the keyword you chose to select linux followed by root=/dev/hdc1 
(assuming your linux drive is now /dev/hdc.)
The keyword is likely "linux" but if you are unsure, press TAB at the prompt.
An example of what to type at the prompt is:

linux root=/dev/hd
