[newbie] SeekComplete error

[DJ]

Hello
 When doing make config in kernel 2.2.9 there was an option in Block Devices
(use multi-mode by default) that when set to Y  fixed the error message:

hdb:hdb: set_multimode: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdb:  set_multimode:  error=0x04  {DriveStatusError }

 The option isnt in Block Devices for kernels 2.2.13-7 or -9.. Where did it go
or what else fixes the error? 

thanks DJ


 

[newbie] ftp/html

[DJ]

Hello

 I am running apache 1.1.3, on one of our web pages there is a
file for ftp. Users in our network can click on the link and get the
file, but whenever a user from the outside world tries it just times
out? The file can however be ftp'd via anonymous ftp, from both our own
network and the outside. I'm guessing that the ftp is working alright
but 
there is something in the apache setup to fix this, i have looked at the
docs but it didnt jump out at me? What am i missing? This is runing on a
BSDI box that i really dont want to have to upgrade right now:)


Thanks DJ

 I had a few minor problems and was able to fix them the day i did the
upgrade. It took a few hours to figgure out what to do with kxicq but
that is ok now as well... The last problem i seem to have is with
telnet...(fingers crossed:))

  Hello all
 
   It looks as if i missed something when i upgraded from 5.3 to 6.0 !!:)
  I can no longer telnet in? I get an error in /var/log/secure of a
  missing /usr/sbin/in.telnetd and sure enough it isnt there!:) How do i
  create it or what new file do i point /etc/inetd.conf to?
 
 
  Thanks DJ
 
 
 Speaking as someone who tried to upgrade from 5.3 to 6.0, it is not a good
 idea at all.  Because Mandrak strives to stay compatible with RedHat, they
 had to institute the same changes in the system that RedHat did.  That said,
 your current problems could be just the beginning, even though your system
 may seem stable for the most part.  I hope you have /home on a separate
 partition, because a fresh install is what you really need.  Don't forget
 the updates once you complete the install.

 You mean telnet isnt a part of the 6.0 upgrade?

 Install the telnet package:
 
 rpm -Uvh telnet-blah.rpm
 
 Then restart inetd:
 
 killall -HUP inetd
 
 or
 
 /etc/rc.d/init.d/inet restart

[newbie] eql

[DJ]

Hello
 
 Is anyone using or have used eql or mlppp with 6 or more modems? I need
to connect a remote site to the lan and we cant get anything faster than
33.6 lines:(
So im going to try a cyclades card with 6 or 8 33.6 modems and use
eql. I'm just looking to chat with anyone who has used a setup like this
in the past, to see what the pitfalls are:)


Thanks DJ
