  Please can you not use HTML when emailing to the list. It can be very
  annoying to some of us. I see that you are usign MS Outlook, you can turn
  HTML of by clicking Format - Plain Text or type ALT o x.
  Sorry I don't know how to solve your problem, but maybe some one else
 will.
 
  Thanks Mark Hillary

  Subject: [newbie] Hosting Primary and Secondary
 
 
  Hi Fellow-Penguin Newbies!
 
  When I disconnect my Primary Server from service- I want the Secondary
  server to automatically take over providing the websites I am Hosting.
 
  My question is:
 
  Does MY  DNS Info at the Open SRS Database tell the world to look at my
  Primary IP and if it is "down"  will traffic automatically look for my
  Secondary IP?
 
  I Can type in my Secondary IP and pull up the index.html of my main
 website.
  I Cannot type in a URL and see any sites come up FROM  my Secondary. (when
  the Primary is out of service)
 
  Presently The Only way "I know Of" to have the Secondary Server take over
 AS
  the Primary is to change the DNS and IP using LINUXCONF and making the
  Secondary BECOME the Primary.
 
 
  I welcome all help I can get
  Thank You,
  Becky
 
 
 

[newbie] pppd. Complicated Complications.

[var1x]

Today, after my cable failed for the 1000 time today (honest) I thought
I should prepare for the worst and configure ppp on my laptop (Toshiba
Tecra 8100) So in the process, I check and make sure my modem is
reconized, and it is, everything was working swimmingly until I actually
connected, at, or right after the handshake (im not sure) the pppd
quits, giving me no error message, and the program, be it kppp or
gnome-ppp freezes, now, kppp crashes on start, and when I try to dial as
a normal user, it tells me I don't have permission to access ppp. But as
root, It dials out, and freezes at handshake, and sometimes the entire
damn system. Now that I come to think about it, it could be an IRQ
conflict...ill look into that, but any suggestions could be greatly
apprechiated.

Peter Marks (var1x)
