I've tried this and I get: #date -s world.std.com date: invalid date 'world.std.com' Is this an enhancement made to Mandrake 7.2?? I have 7.1 on my machine. Is that the problem? Thanks in advance, Mark -Original Message- From: Meph Istopheles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday

[newbie] Modprobe SCSI card question

2001-01-25 Thread mark
I'm trying to load a SCSI card module, with the following command: modprobe g_NCR5380.o dtc_3181e=1 ncr_addr=0x240 ncr_irq=4 It tells me It cannot find the module, even though the module is there in the /lib/modules/2.2.15 blah blah directory. I can't run it from that directory either.

David, In many ways Linux is nothing like what you're used to. And much more like the mainframes you've programmed for all these years. What protocols are you using to get the boxes to talk to the Linux box. I'm assuming that you're using the Linux box as a file server, right? -- Mark
