[newbie] Dhcp client issues with samba server and others
I have a laptop that's is running dhcp since i move around a lot with it. For the most part everything works fine except for some services. Notably samba and ftp. From what i can gather is these services are requiring an ip addy which is not available at the time they are started from the rc5.d path. If I then login as root and restart the services everything works fine. The error message i get from somba nmb service is no local interfaces. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] samba security premissions.
ok that worked, I now know that i'm attaching as nobody even though i should be attaching with my id. I even went and maped the drive using the sign on as this user function in windoze. I was under the impression that this should work. No i don't have guest only selected but guest access allowed.

Re: [newbie] Beware the PD virus
Only problem is that this virus will spread by targeting the 'weak' among the population. These people get so infected that one starts to seriously consider removing them from the gene pool, for the good of the others. -p rikona wrote: Hello , There is a virus that goes around occasionally and causes a lot of trouble. Is is usually spread via email, and since it is sent as plain text it seems to be able to get through all antivirus programs. It is one of the few computer viruses that seem to infect humans, and indeed, the symptoms often show up first in the human, not the computer. One of the first symptoms is that it makes people want to reply to the email, and thus spread the virus even further - it is an insidious virus. As with other viruses, some people suffer the effects much more than others. It causes some people to behave in very odd, sometimes violent ways. Since AV programs do not stop this virus, it is up to each of us to try and stamp it out. So, if you get a suspicious email that looks as though it contains the 'Political Discussion' virus, make sure you DO NOT make the infection worse by sending a reply to others, especially if you are feeling upset or otherwise affected by the virus. If you simply cannot control yourself, it is better to quarantine it to, say, the OT list. People on that list should be aware of the dangers, since the PD virus, and others, are often likely to infect that group. Unfortunately, it is a common virus on Internet email lists.

[newbie] samba security premissions.
I am trying to configure samba (from mandrake 8.2) to allow everyone to read a share but to allow only me to have write and delete premissions. I managed to successfully connect to the share from a windoze 2k machine using my samba user/password. The linux,it's a laptop, and win2k machines are on different domain/workgroups. I noticed that no conections ever show up in the all conections list nor in the one for the share as well. I would really like to know where to look to see a login/activity log. I'm attaching my .conf file as well. The win2k machine is on a microbully network with a win2k server running as a pdc and the laptop is on the workgroup that runs at home. I have never been able to do this type of configuration so i'm hopping it's just something simple. I use webadmin for my system maintenance. # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here.

Daniel,
First...I'm hoping that it was a copy and paste error, but you are
missing the 'i' on image=/boot/vmlinux on the first (default) entry.
In addition, the default entry is the only one with the append= line
that does not read append="devfs=mount hda=ide-scsi hdd-scsi"
('quiet' keeps you from seeing all the 'goodies' load--I prefer to see
that everything is loading o.k., so I have removed it.)
Without those ide-scsi and hdd-scsi entries, your system is going to
have problems 'seeing' them. I would suggest that you modify the
append= line in your first (default) entry to read either:
append="quiet devfs=mount hda=ide-scsi hdd-scsi"
or
append="devfs=mount hda=ide-scsi hdd-scsi"
Either way, once you have made the change and saved the lilo.conf file,
at a (root) command prompt, type 'lilo' or '/sbin/lilo' (without quote
marks). You will get a return of the new lilo configuration, so you
know it 'took'.
Then do a normal shutdown and restart...your CD drive should then be
available as a CDROM and a CD burner.
(BTW: I have found eroaster to be very reliable and much easier to
configure...personal opinion, of course.)

If someone could tell me where i went wrong and also what i need to link
cdrom and cdrom2 to so i can get full access back to these drives, i'd
be really happy :)
