[newbie-it] dosemu
Secondo quanto riportato nel manualetto che si scarica assieme a DOSemu dalsito www.dosemu.org dopo l'istallazione di dosemu è necessario creare unadirectory che all'avvio DOSemu farà considerare a DOS come disco C. Percreare tale directory con tutte le cose che occorrono esiste unprogrammuccio anch'esso presente nel file .tar che si scarica, che si chiamabootdir.first. Una volta creata questa directory ci si può mettere dentrotutto ciò che si vuole. Ad esempio io ci ho messo dentro Freedos, laricostruzione gratuita di DOS scaricabile al sito www.freedos.org.Ciò che fa bootdir.firts può essere fatto con semplicità a mano:all'avvio dosemu legge tutte le istruzioni sulla macchina dal file di testo/etc/DOsemu.conf. Alla voce hdimage potete inserire il nome della directorynella quale DOSemu dovrà rintracciare DOS e dovrà fare considerare a DOScome disco C. Dopo questa modifica inserite nella directory in questione ilsistema operativo DOS e il gioco è fatto. Ogni volta che in DOS salvatefiles semplicemente questi vanno a finire nella directory da voi creata.Se per tale directory l'utente ha i privilegi necessari DOS potrà essereutilizzato da lui tranquillamente.Nel file DOSemu.conf alla voce $ports potete specificare gli indirizzi dellevarie porte alle quali DOS potrà accedere. La sintassi opportuna èspecificata a fianco, rendendo facile il lavoro.Spero di esservi stato d'aiuto.Luca
[newbie-it] linux sul secondo hard disk
Un po' di tempo fa c'era stata una discussione sul fatto che linux mandrake potesse essere installato sul secondo HD. A riguardo avrei una domanda da fare: ho aggiunto un altro hard disk al mio computer e vorrei installare linux sul secondo. Il problema e': se sul primo installo win e lascio vuoto il secondo (senza formattarlo) e faccio l'installazione raccomandata, linux viene installato sul secondo? Faccio questa domanda perche' tale installazione e' l'unica che mi funziona. Se cerco di fare le partizioni da me, sebbene sono certo che siano giuste, mi da' errore nell'installazione. grazie

Re: [newbie] Telnet Service ...
Telnet runs under inetd(assuming it is turned on under inetd.conf). Inetd listens to the port that telnet requests come in on. If a request comes in it starts the telnet daemon. This is done to save system resources since inetd also listens for alot of other services. This saves on system resources. Rather than have a lot of services listening, you have one. Unless you have alot of telnet requests, this setup is just fine. --- Brett - CTC [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: *This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* When I check the services, the Telnet service is set to "On Demand" ..

Re: [newbie] Telnet vs SSH
The difference is in security for the most part. There are some other perks to SSH that telnet does not allow. For example you could shut down a machine with the command: ssh -l root hostname.dns.com shutdown -h now Once you execute that command, it will ask you for the RSA key passcode and then log into that machine, execute that command and then log out. The machine will then shut down. This can't be done in telnet. And if it can, it's not done easily, I've tried the command and it won't allow it or look like there's a simple way to do that. [timh@r2d2 timh]$ ssh yoda uptime timh@yoda's password: 11:39am up 51 days, 11:44, 5 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 There's an example. There's also the security. With Telnet, you can't telnet in as root due to the fact that it sends a plain text passwd and it's not hard at all to catch those passwds. SSH sends a plain text key. The key has the passcode encrypted within that key. Windows comes with Telnet. And it's installed by default in Win98SE, and up. (If you actually disable networking, you install the telnet.exe to install the Windows networking.) Windows does now however have a SSH anything. I don't know if they ever will, and since they're recent statements about OpenSource, Linux and GPL, I doubt they will do something like that any time soon. There are plenty of applications you can buy or download as FREEware. Personally I like and use SecureCRT. Which can be coupled with a SFTP client. SecureCRT does suppor telnet. Hummingbird has a good suite for telnet, I believe it supports SSH, and it should connect to an X Server. However it's pricey. Last I heard it was like $700 or so. But there are other ways of getting software that will perform the task you need with out spending a dime, or with out spending an arm, a leg, and a knee cap!

Re: [newbie] Mandrake Update
What Alan says is basically true, but if you're brave at heart, here's a method that can enable one to upgrade to glibc 2.2 on a 7.2 install. http://www.pclinuxonline.com/Help___How_To/Glibc-2_2/glibc-2_2.html I followed these instructions here except where they say do a --force --nodeps, do a --test and get the other 2 - 4 dependencies. I haven't had a problem, yet (being the operative word) and have been using this set up for about 9 or 10 days. Oh I did upgrade my menu app tho it suggests not to. But it was necessary to that I wouldn't get an error when I upgrade-menu after installing kde2.1.1. This should keep you from getting a screen full of errors. I think you can scroll through the screens by typing tab + pgup/pgdown (or the arrows), or maybe its ctrl + arrows. H*ll, I can't remember. Experiment with those extra keys. But you can change to another console by typing F2, F3 and so on and back again. (I find that handy.)

Re: [newbie] Vmware
Well, I have the Gsx version and used to have the Vmware workstation. Now, in gsx, one can setup as much as six scsci type devices (maybe in workstation too, but I forget). Now, the devices linked to the scsi do not have to be real scsci.. one can map atapi to scsi for example. All these setting are under the configuration editior. When you first setup with the wizard, it only allows you to setup one cdrom, one floppy and one disk. Afterwards you can use the configuration editor to add or change settings. Now, for example, I have SCSI 0:0 linked to my virtual disk then have Device typename SCSI 0:1 CD-ROM /dev/scd0 SCSI 0:2 CD-ROM /dev/scd1 SCSI 0:3 CD-ROM /dev/scd2 and the such. If vmware does not have scsi (which I don't remeber), the it is still possible. Of course, for P-M one has the virtual disk. Device type name P-S CD-ROM /dev/hdc (if that is your IDE CD) or /dev/scd0 (if you have used ide-scsi emulation) S-M CD-ROM /dev/scd1 S-S CD-ROM /dev/scd2 and the such. put in the right device names for your machine, but you get the idea. Basically, for SCSI you can have upto six devices and for IDE only 4. I hope that helps, and sorry for answering late. On Thu, 5 Apr 2001, [iso-8859-1] Lúcio Costa wrote: Thanks Nima.

Re: [newbie] ADSL setup
Dan, As root, run netconf and make sure you are using dhcp for your ethernet card. Click the "Host name and IP network devices" button. In the next dialog, click the "Adapter 1" tab. The Enabled box should be checked (indented), and Dhcp should be selected. The Net device should show eth0, and the Kernel module should show your NIC driver (eepro100, for the Intel Pro/100 NIC I received from Qwest). Accept any changes. Next, click the "Name server specification (DNS)" button. You should have Qwest's domain name server IP addresses in the text boxes for "IP of name server 1" and "IP of name server 2". If not, enter them. If you don't know, use 204.147.80.1 for the first, and 204.147.80.5 for the second. You do NOT need to check the "DNS is required..." box. Accept any changes. Quit netconf. If you made any changes, then netconf should prompt you to restart networking. If it doesn't, you will need to do it manually (in a terminal, as root): /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart If the command fails, then read the error message. It may be that dhcpcd (the dhcp client daemon) is not installed, and therefore you are unable to use dhcp to get your network config. If this is the case, run rpmdrake and install dhcpcd. Then start networking again, as with the restart command above. If you're not sure, try locate dhcpcd. My output looks like this: [root@numidea dave]# locate dhcpcd /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.cache /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info /var/run/dhcpcd-eth0.pid /usr/share/doc/dhcpcd-1.3.19pl1 /usr/share/doc/dhcpcd-1.3.19pl1/README /usr/share/man/man8/dhcpcd.8.bz2 /sbin/dhcpcd [root@numidea dave]# Note the last item, /sbin/dhcpcd. This is the actual program you need. If you have dhcpcd installed and running, then in a terminal, run ifconfig. You output should look something like this: [root@numidea dave]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:03:47:1B:EC:68 inet addr:10.0.0.2 Bcast:10.0.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17014 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:5943 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 Interrupt:10 Base address:0xd400 loLink encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1 RX packets:46 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:46 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 [root@numidea dave]# Note the IP address of device "eth0". If you only have "lo" but no "eth0", then your network card isn't initialized -- probably because the dhcp client is either not installed, or not running, or else the driver module failed to load. If you know which module your NIC needs, try "modprobe modulename". If you get an error message, troubleshoot -- wrong module? hardware conflict? module already loaded (this one is ok, that means the driver is already running)? Try restarting networking again (see command above). Next, run route -n. Here's my output (sorry about the column formatting): [root@numidea dave]# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [root@numidea dave]# See the third line, starting wiith 0.0.0.0 -- this is your default route. Notice that it is linked to eth0 (last column). Notice the Gateway column. The Gateway entry is the internal IP of your Cisco 678 router. It might not be 10.0.0.1, I don't know if Qwest configures them all the same or not. But if you have a default gateway entry, then it is timie to try and get online. Just launch Netscape. Hopefully a page will load. If not, then try pinging 64.37.137.83 (www.sony.com). If you can ping the IP address, then at least you are hitting the web. It's a domain resolution problem. If you can't even ping the IP, try another known IP address, like those DNS entries I gave you above. If you are still stuck, then you aren't even getting outside your router, and possibly not even outside your PC. Try pinging your router (the Gateway IP address). If you can't get it, then you are stuck inside your PC.
