RE: [newbie] 8.1 installed - networking trouble - similar problem here too

2002-02-19 Thread Todd Zashin

I would like to piggy back on this thread if I may because I am having a
similar problem.  I recently shut down my linux box and used the power cord
for another pc connection as well as the monitor.  When I plugged everything
back into the linux box and rebooted, kudzu appeared telling me something
was wrong with my Network ISA card.  I told it to keep the configuration
because I wanted to do the research behind why all of a sudden is my network
card not getting recognized.  When I do a modprobe ne, I receive the
following:

/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/ne.o.gz: init_module: No such
device or address
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/ne.o.gz: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/ne.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/ne.o.gz: insmod ne failed

What is this?  How do I rectify Linux Mandrake 8.1 not recognizing my NIC.
In the Mandrake Control Center it does not appear nor is it in the HardDrake
utility.  What could be wrong?

Todd

Subject: [newbie] 8.1 installed - networking trouble


I've  installed 8.1 and network was working fine out of the box.
After doing MandrakeUpdate(all packages updated except the 3
kernel related)

I lost the network (the 3com ISA 3c509b NIC)

I can ping 127.0.0.1 but not eth0 set IP192.168.42.1
[root@myduckbox net]# ping 192.168.42.1
connect: Network is unreachable

eth0 doesn't list with ifconfig output but the Network
Configurator GUI / tool displays all correct values?

I get the following error output after running modprobe:

[root@myduckbox net]# modprobe 3c509
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o.gz: invalid
parameter parm_io
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o.gz: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o.gz: insmod
3c509
failed

What's the next thing to check?

RE: [newbie] uninstalling a tar and zip file

2001-08-31 Thread Todd Zashin

Hi guys,

I went to the rpm.net site and downloaded the checkinstall rpm now I get
this after double clicking the file and typing checkinstall at the prompt.

   Checkinstall 1.4.1 Copyright 2001 Felipe Eduardo Sanchez Diaz Duran
This software is released under the GNU GPL

The checkinstallrc file was not found at:
/usr/local/lib/checkinstall/checkinstallrc

Assuming default values.

I cant find /usr/local/bin/installwatch.

I cant continue.  Either install installwatch or modify the INSTALLWATCH
variable in this script, then run checkinstall again.

Ok...so I get the point that Installwatch can not be found.  The mandrake
cooker website shows that it is one of the files installed and now I dont
see it anywhere.  WHat am I doing wrong with this RPM?

TIA
Todd

Hi Todd,

You can find it at http://www.rpmfind.com. Just search
for checkinstall (no version number) and the cooker
version should pop up at the top of the list.

If you still have trouble, here's a direct link to the
file:

ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake-devel/contrib/RPMS/checkinstall-1.4.1-1mdk.
i586.rpm

 Well go to cooker files and get yourself a copy of the checkinstall rpm.

 Then install the whole thing AGAIN  (a full-meal deal!) except instead of
 make install you use checkinstall

 then

 rpm -e nkfs

[newbie] RE: Linux to Netware File Server box connectivity problems.

2001-08-16 Thread Todd Zashin

Hi all.  I am new to this list and have a nagging question.  Please help.  I
am running Linux Mandrake 8.0 Freq2 kernel 2.4.5-5mdk on a Pentium 200 64meg
machine with 8gig HD Trident video card hooked to a vga monitor. Here is
what ails my Linux machine.

At work, we have a Netware 5.0 FS.  I want to be able to mount a
folder/directory on my Linux box from my Netware File Server because I have
several folders on the File Server that I use throughout my day to day
activities.  I would like to save files from my Linux box to and from my
home folder on the Netware box.  So, I went out and installed ncpfs and
ipxutils from the 2 cd set.  Read the complicated HOWTO.  I also made sure
to first go out on the web and search on rpmfind (I think) the dependencies
needed before I could run these packages.  So, I installed those
dependencies (one really - I had the rest) before installing the two other
packages.

Once the packages were installed, I went into Linuxconf and chose to make
IPX enabled with auto configure on everything cause I am lazy. :)

Then I went to my prompt and typed slist and got Server (0x8847) not found
in ncp_open.  So, then I typed ipx_configure --auto off (I forgot those two
commands at the moment but maybe that is because of my frustration at this
point :) Then I typed ipx_interface delall and then ipx_interface add -p
eth0 802.2  Same thing/error happened when I typed slist.  I thought maybe I
need to put the IPX HEX network address of the Netware File Server after
802.2 and when I do I get unrecognizable network address error (something
like this).  I have also tried the internal network address to no avail
also.  WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!  UGH!

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ipxutils and the ncpfs
packages to no avail.  I have gone into Linuxconf and switched everything
back to the way it was before I started this whole adventure.  I have done
an ipxdump and I see something on my monitor - not legible but packet
traffic is occurring and 802.2 is identified.

So, I have tried and tried and tried and now I am turning to you all for
help. I have installed ipxutils 2.2.0.18.a-3mdk and ncpfs of the same
version.  Should I maybe try an older version of these packs?  Is my kernel
too recent?  I searched on Google.com and a lot of people have been
complaining about this issue but I do not see solutions.  Is there any?  Is
Mandrake doing anything to respond to this problem?
My Netware box is configured with one physical NIC but has two
protocols...IPX/SPX and TCP/IP  TCP/IP is on EtherII and IPX/SPX is on 802.2
the internal network is currently mapped to the ETHERII device
Your help is much appreciated and I am thankful for it.  I hope this was not
too long but, I wanted to give as much info as I know because I really need
to get this done.

Todd
