Standard vs NONUS CD???

HI, I'm a little confused about the difference between the normal binary-1 CD and the binary-1_NONUS cd. The Debian CD faq states that "The non-US software cannot be legally stored on servers that are located in the USA - formerly, the reason for this used to be that it contained strong cryptogr

SAMBA Help Needed

I'm trying to mount a directory on a Windows NT box onto a Debian system and am having some problems. I can use smbclient and get to the directory on the NT machine but when I try and mount the directory using mount -t smbfs -o username=bbodnyk/fciam //etbodnyk/proengineer /var/www/proengineer I

rinetd error

When I start rinetd I get the following error message: rinetd: couldn't bind to address gallifrey port 5801 I'm trying to redirect anything coming into my firewall on this port to another machine on my network. If someone could explain what needs to be done I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Bruce Bru

Starting pppoe

I installed rp-pppoe and it works like a champ. The documentation states to have it start at boot time that a line should be added to the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local. Well my GNU/Linux installation doesn't have an rc.d directory; just a bunch of directories named rc0.d, rc1.d, rc2.d, etc. I'm assumi

RE: ipchains & rinetd

It turns out that the reason I couldn't access my web page from the outside is my ISP is blocking packets going to port 80. If I use another port it works fine! Thanks to those who responded and tried to help! Bruce -Original Message- From: Bodnyk, Bruce W [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

rinetd

I am trying to configure my firewall so that I can get to a web server that is on another machine. If I go to http://gallifrey (gallifrey is the name of my firewall)from a machine on my local network I'm redirected to the machine where I'm running the web server. However if I attempt to connect to

ipchains & rinetd

I have a GNU/Linux machine set up at home as my firewall. Behind the firewall on my home network I have several machines one of which is another GNU/Linux machine on which I'm running the Apache web server.

Linux & DSL

I finally got my DSL line at home and want to configure potato as a router for my home network. Reading the "DSL Howto for Linux" document it appears that I need to a PPPoE client as my DSL provider "Verizon" uses pppoe. I have a couple of questions though that hopefully someone can answer. 1. Whi

Glibc 2.2

Does anyone know where I can get the latest version of glibc (2.2) which apparently is needed for the latest version of XFree86? I downloaded the glibc source but can't get it to compile cleanly. It appears the version of glibc in the stable Debian site is 2.1.13 or there abouts. Thanks! Bruce Br

Gnats default Database

I've tried submitting this to the gnats database but can't seem to get an answer so I thought I'd post it here. I'm running Gnatsweb v3.99.2 and Gnats 4.0.

Setting up an ASCII terminal as a Console

I've tried posting this to several gnats lists but haven't gotten any feedback so I thought I'd post it here. Can anyone explain the process by which notifications of expired prs are dealt with. If I enable this option in my dbconfig file I get an error "Unparseable reply from gnatsd" when I submi

Gnatsweb Access

Unable to Ping NT boxes

I'm trying to configure samba on my Linux machine so I can access directories on an MT box and am being unsuccessful. I'm thinking it has something to do with another problem which I have ignored up to now. After installing Linux I found that I was unable to ping normal NT machines using their hos

NTFS Mount

What syntax of the mount command would allow be to mount a shared NTFS directory on an NT system on Linux. I'm assuming this is possible! Thanks! Bruce Bruce W. Bodnyk Staff Engineer, CAE Development FCI Electronics 825 Old Trail Road Etters, PA 17319-9351 Phone: (717) 938-7543 Fax: (717) 938-7
