Re: [newbie] Help with Telnet
Have you set up your /etc/hosts.allow /etc/hosts.deny files. The linux box when it recvs a connection attempt, the inetd deamon checks these files for access rights. You must have something in there to allow the IP addresses of your client machines. For example: 192.168.0.1 which is linux box 192.168.0.2 which is your windoze box /etc/hosts.deny would have the entry like 'ALL:ALL' to deny all access. /etc/hosts.allow would have 'AlLL: 192.168.0.2' (Both of these on your Linux box) The inetd deamon would disallow all connections except those listed in the allow file. Maybe OK to use telnet on your local NET, but would suggest you use SSH for all other comms. Regards, Dave On Thursday 25 October 2001 10:11, you wrote: I have a similar problem.

[newbie] Sane Mandrake (Scanner)
I have had sane 1.0.4 installed and have only been able to scan gray mode. Color only gives a IO problem. Mandrakes cooker now has version 1.0.5 of the sane RPM's as well as version 0.78 of xsane. However, once I have removed the old software and re-installed with the lastest version, scanimage -V still reports 1.0.4. Is there a simple explanation? Also, after doing a scanimage -T, the prompt does not return and the scanner light stays on for about ten minutes at which point the prompt returns. Color test completes but does not return prompt either. Previous version at least finished gray test? Sorry for any bad english, my 18 month old daughter is helping me type this email. Cheers, Dave.
