[newbie] Printing from Mandrake 7.0
Hi, I just installed Mandrake 7.0 but I can't get to print on our Network Printer which is a hosted on a WinNT machine. With RedHat 6.0 I could be able to print, but with Mandrake 7.0 I can't even with the same settings. I don't want to go back to RH 6.0 coz I like Mandrake better. I have tried DrakConf and printtool but neither works. Please help. Andrew
RE: [newbie] Printing from Mandrake 7.0
uninstall the lpd rpm and its dependencies and install the ORIGINAL mandrake 6.1 rpm and associated dependencies. I had the same problem and there appears to be a bug in all versions after original 6.1 version. Cheers: Michael Perry. RD. Dep. Netafim Magal.

[newbie] Booting Up Multiple OS's
Here's the deal.. I had a single 8.4gb hard drive, partioned with W98 in 6 gb, Linux in the remainder..Lilo worked just fine... Now.. I installed a 20gb h/d in addition to this this week-I've kept the original as master and the new one as slave. My plan was to put a completely clean install of W98 onto the new drive, make an image file using Norton Ghost, burn that onto a CD (Makes re-installing windows a brze!!), then drag all my personal files over and re-install the apps onto the new drive, then allow Linux to take over the entire original 8.4 gb by re-sizing the partitons. Fine..on paper (Or in my head!!) When I'd done the fresh install of W98 on the new drive, I lost access to my original hard drive, so the only thing I could boot into was the new copy of W98.. I think I remember reading that, if you install Windows AFTER Linux, it over-writes the boot records so Lilo boesn't function any more. Is that right? The t*t that I am..I didn't make a boot floppy on my last Linux install (.hangs head in shame and stands in the corner!!) To cut this short then..I've finished up fdisk-ing the lot, installing Linux first onto the slave h/d in a 6 gb partition (Should be enough, shouldn't it??) and I'll put W98 on the original 8.4 gb drive. Now, when I re-install W98 tonight, that mean that lilo will disappear again, won't it? So the question is..how do I boot into Linux without it (i've created a floppy disc this time, that will probably help) and once I've managed to get into Linux, can I then re-install Lilo at all?

Re: [newbie] Problems
Some networking problems: I am hooked to my campus ethernet network. While running windows, I get tremendous throughput loading pages, doing ftp, etc..now in netscape in linux, I am getting throughput no higher than 3.5k/sec and then it starts dropping, and stalls out..goes back up to 3.5/3.6 and drops slowly to 3.0, 2.9,2.8..etc then stalls out.. any ideas? I am using an AMD K6-II 350 overclocked to 400, 128 megs SDRAM, an SMC EtherEZ 8416 NIC, mandrake 7.0 I think thats a Netscape related problem. Actually Im so fed up with Netscape that I dont use it anymore... . Also, I had the same problem as I thought the others did...I try to telnet to my machine from somewhere else, and it says connected...I wait for the login prompt, it hesitates and then the connection is dropped. I know I should edit my /etc/inetd file..what should I make sure it has to be able to telnet in? I just want to be able to telnet and ftp into my machine, s'all. Thanks Valjean You should have an entry like this in "/etc/inetd.conf": telnet stream tcp nowait root/usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd If it still doesnt work after you uncomment this line, have a look if there is a file "in.telnetd" in "/usr/sbin". If not, you have to install the telnet -server rpm (There are two telnet rpms, telnet-server and telnet-client), it should work then. Cheers, Ove
Re: [newbie] Help with Mandrake install ....
If you have a custom boot disk for mandrake, the simplest thing is probably to load DOS from a floppy and type fdisk /mbr. This will reformat your master boot record DOS style, which means that you won't be able to boot linux. But you should be able to get into windows, and you can boot linux from the floppy. After that you will probably want to play with your lilo.conf file in /etc/lilo.conf.

Re: [newbie] Booting Up Multiple OS's
The floppy disk should do the trick. Just boot from it. Then rerun lilo from within linux. This will overwrite W98. You may need to edit your lilo.conf file first, to make sure it has windows as an option, on the correct partition. cheers dave andy wrote: Here's the deal..

Re: [newbie] Booting Up Multiple OS's
Yes, what you want to do can be done and without much trouble. andy wrote: I had a single 8.4gb hard drive, partioned with W98 in 6 gb, Linux in the remainder..Lilo worked just fine...

Fine..on paper (Or in my head!!) If you want to resize the Linux configuration without losing everything you have on it, then you'ld want to use a tool like Partition Magic, that is, if there are any alternatives to PM. PM has the capability of resizing partitions without losing anything, especially when increasing the size of partitions (not sure what PM does when you try to resize a partition to smaller than what's on it takes up, though). However, if you're going to have such large HDDs, then PM is probably something you should seriously consider getting. I heard that there were some problems with the 5.x version; therefore, you should do some research on this. You could check the zdnet, pcmag, cnet and such web sites: http://www.zdnet.com http://www.pcmag.com etcetera Those problems were reported last fall or earlier last year, though, so these have probably been fixed. When I'd done the fresh install of W98 on the new drive, I lost access to my original hard drive, so the only thing I could boot into was the new copy of W98.. I think I remember reading that, if you install Windows AFTER Linux, it over-writes the boot records so Lilo boesn't function any more. Is that right? Yep. The t*t that I am..I didn't make a boot floppy on my last Linux install (.hangs head in shame and stands in the corner!!) Look at it as learning. To cut this short then..I've finished up fdisk-ing the lot, installing Linux first onto the slave h/d in a 6 gb partition (Should be enough, shouldn't it??) Should be. If you eventually run out of space, then you can always create additional filesystems later, or manage differently. There are definitely ways of expanding later on without needing to redo everything just to gain more space. Might depend on what you plan to do, but 6GB would definitely be sufficient for many purposes. As per above, you can always create and add more filesystems later on. For example, say you created a /home filesystem of 1GB and you eventually run out of space, but this would still be adequate for /home. You could create a separate 1GB or large filesystem and move /home to that, while reassigning the space previously taken up by /home to another filesystem requiring more space that it's current size, only needing to modify the fstab configuration file. This isn't a great example, but it's an example of what could be done; although, if /home happened to be next to the filesystem requiring more space and following that filesystem, then you could delete the old /home filesystem or partition and expand the other one by the additional 1GB freed up in moving /home. The filesystem numbering would end up with a gap, if the new /home filesystem or partition was placed further on the same hdd, but this shouldn't be a problem (could in some cases, for PM, but think this example wouldn't be a problem for PM, albeit I still use PM 3.0). and I'll put W98 on the original 8.4 gb drive. Now, when I re-install W98 tonight, that mean that lilo will disappear again, won't it? Yep. So the question is..how do I boot into Linux without it (i've created a floppy disc this time, that will probably help) and once I've managed to get into Linux, can I then re-install Lilo at all? Make sure your boot floppy works before re-installing Win98. As long as the bf works correctly, then you should be able to do as you describe, being able to reinstall lilo and the works. You might prefer to use linuxconf or drakconf or drak?conf (not sure of the exact spelling and letter casing) for the lilo configuration, unless you know that the lilo.conf file is still accurate. If you're not sure, then use linuxconf or drakconf to make sure. (linuxconf will work, but I read earlier today that drakconf is or may be better.) mike

[newbie] Network Card
I am trying to set up a simple Peer to Peer network between 2 W98 machines and my mandrake Linux machine. I will need to access a printer on one of the w98 machines as well as all of the drives (both physical and logical) on both machines. Eventually I'd like to access the external modem on one of the w98 machines from my Linux box. To do the above I believe I need to configure Samba? But unfortunately I've fallen at the first hurdle in the fact that the setup procedure doesn't seem to have detected my NIC. It is a:- 3com Etherlink III ISA (3c509b-combo) and is running in PnP mode in w98 (I'm currently duel booting). I can't seem to get Linux to attempt to detect it again (I'm totally new to Linux networking, but do have a very basic knowledge of Linux/Unix). Can someone tell me the best way to go about getting Linux to work with my NIC?

Re: [newbie] FTP: 500 Illegal PORT Command
Just a guess here, but I had a similar problem when trying to access the SuSE update servers via ftp thru a firewall. If I recall correctly, it has to do w/ the firewall and using passive mode ftp vs. active mode. In active mode, the ftp client contacts the server, and the server responds on a different port to start the transfer. In passive mode, the client contacts the server, the server responds back on the same port, and the client initiates the transfer on another port. Basically in active mode, the firewall sees an 'unsolicited' incoming connection 'cause it doesn't match a previous outgoing connection on the same port, so it is denied and you get the Illegal PORT Command b.s. I don't know if a firewall plays into your setup or not, but this is what was going on in my case.

[newbie] samba printing problems
I have a Mandrake 7.0 install with some updated rpms from cooker. I have been having samba printing problems since installing 7.0 and continuing since upgrading many related files to cooker. I find that I can connect to the samba server and get a list of shares, which will list the printers I wish to use. When I set them up, using the SAME settings as I used to get the list of shares (username, password, workgroup, server), I cannot print. Using printtool to set them up and test print, everything is entered properly but nothing ever results from trying to print the test pages. I don't get any error messages, nothing in my logs, nothing. If I try to simply print from the command line using "lpr filename" nothing happens. No error messages, no printout. If I try to check the lpq, nothing shows up. I have been trying everything I can possibly think of to fix this, changing permissions and ownerships on /var/spool/ lpd/lp and lp0 directories or the files contained therein. Nothing works. I have tried upgrading samba, lpr, printtool, DrakConf, and all the associated/dependent files and nothing works. No printing to samba shares. Without error messages to guide from I don't know where to start or what could be wrong. If I use CitrixICA and print from a windows session to the same shared printer...no problem. If I print from a Mac in the same office, no problem. Something is not right with the Mandrake default setup. I don't know if it is in samba, lpr, or where but this didn't happen with Redhat 6.0 which I was running before switching to Mandrake 7.0. Can anyone give guidance as to where the problem likely is? patrick
