to be onest, I have no idea where SNMP is used for, but I read in the docs
that mrtg is able to work without extra snmp installations. I just want
the traffic on eth0 measured.
snmp = simple network management protocol, mrtg uses it to gather
network load information.
you need to install snmpd

via-rhine.o on kernel 2.2.17.
no trace of pci-scan in the source tree! never tried 2.2.18 yet.
try the drivers and the diagnostic stuff on www.scyld.com, it helped me

this is the safest way, but it needs a reboot:

this will force a full fsck on all your partitions.

what happens exactly? any error messages? any output?
the glob function is implemented with csh, so this could be a csh
problem.
pietro.
a few things you can check:
try checking with netstat -a if someone's listening on the ssh port on
the server;
run sshd -d, and try to connect with a client (your sshd -d dump is
regular, it just stops waiting for a connection);
grep sshd /var/log/auth.log
hope it helps.
