[newbie] IPv6 question
Could any one please tell me what is Ipv6? I have heard that Ipv6 use 128 bits. Does it mean if we take 128/8 we have 16 bytes addressing? If not, does Ipv6 is 6 bytes address instead of 4 bytes which we are using right now? And, how do we setup Ipv6 on Linux or windows? Is it a must use or we can stay with Ipv4?

RE: [newbie] Dynamic IP?
This mean you have to pay for fixed IP which is also provided by RoadRunner. The cost for Fixed IP about $80.00 USD/month. They will give you 1 fixed IP and 4 dynamic IP + 1 Cisco Router. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Jon Doe Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2001 6:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Dynamic IP? If it wasn't for bad luck, well you know the rest. For 4 months now (the entire time I have had roadrunner) I have had the exact same IP number. Now RoadRunner decided they wanted to change it I guess. So now my .html files all have the wrong links on them. Am I gonna have to edit my html files (for apache) everytime they change my IP or is there a way around this? _ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

Please read the email attach below. I fixed it by doing this on my LM8.0 Tuan From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Tim Holmes [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2001 4:32 PM To: David Travis Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Remote access to Webmin There's something else you're going to want to look for, or your webadmin will NOT allow you access to the interface. As ROOT, edit the file /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf I believe it's line 11, that by default reads: ssl=1 Unless you have ssl configured and the cert created, you will not be able to gain access to the webmin. If you change that line to read: ssl=0 You will be able to get by using http://hostname:1. Once you've gotten that far, keep in mind that webmin will ONLY recogize the root user, and the root passwd specified at install. If you have since changed the root passwd, the new passwd will not work. So I hope you either remember the original root passwd, or haven't changed it. As far as ssh goes. Stick with it! It's more secure then telnet unless you're using another kind of telnet. I know FreeBSD comes with a secure telnet that uses SRA secure login. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Romanator Sent: Friday, July 27, 2001 4:18 PM To: James S Bear Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] webmin James, This works for me: https://127.0.0.1:1 Press the [enter] key.

Thanks all of you for helping solve this problem.

Viron Sent: Saturday, July 21, 2001 8:25 PM To: Tuan Duc Tran; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Apache help Tuan, Sounds as though www.mylinuxbox.com isn't a registered domain name. If it isn't then you can only get to the machine via IP (because it is unresolvable in dns). You have two options to get beyond this - register it through one of the domain registrars or add it to the /etc/hosts file.

RE: [newbie] printing to Laserjet 4000 Series PS
Well, The best way to setup is using CUPS. First, I assumed you installed CUPS Second, you need to open browser (Ex. Netscape) and type http://localhost:631 it will ask you ROOT password. from this page you can add new printer. When it ask you the port; select app/jet direct. It will show socket:// . you need to type: socket://(your printer server IP):9100) (EX. socket://192.168.0.1:9100). It will ask you to select printer and it also ask you if you want to print a test page. I use Jetdirect170 so I put IP:9100. If it does not work with your print server, try to use 9101 or 9102. FYI, It seem like my printer prints slower when I use Linux but it does good job.
