Re: SIS 900 onboard network adapter

2003-01-18 Thread Dennis Gilmore
i had a freind over here and his notebook has the same nic in it.  we
noticed  thatthe link would drop after he got an ip and was kinda flaky 
he couldnt get an ip in phoebe with the nic.  seems the driver isnt the
best i guess.  my phoebe box with a realtek 8139 card had no issues
getting an ip.  so from my limited use with that card i would recomend a
new nic.

Remove the [home] section from your smb.conf file
add in a section for each group and specify two sections as such

[originators]
comment = Originators Directory
valid users = 
read only = No
create mask = 0660
directory mask = 0770
browseable = No

[processors]
comment = processors Directory
valid users = 
read only = No
create mask = 0660

This will give your users access only to the directory that they are

I read about this somewhere  but cant quite remember where.  they
suggested blocking to ports as windows uses this service internally.  i

should block all incomming ports except those that are absoultly

Re: Domain Hosting on Cable

2003-01-25 Thread Dennis Gilmore
As long as your ISP allows you to run servers, use dyndns.org  or
something simmilar to give you a static dns server.  you need to pay $30
to use each domain name.  which they say is forever.  they will let you
control all the dns  they just forward requests to you.

Re: linksys and mozilla

2003-01-26 Thread Dennis Gilmore
Buck,

I dont mean to sound rude or unhelpful but have you done any research on
anything before you ask?   you seem to be asking alot of questions with
out researching them first.  google.com is always very helpful with the
rightly asked query  you usually find what you are seeking.  proving
more information on the exact problem also helps as the problem can be
pinpointed with greater ease.  Questions on windows are inappropriate as
this list is for Red Hat Linux 8.0 questions on samba are fine.  I'm
glad that your trying out linux, i think that you will learn more by
searching for what you need rather than just asking,  you will be able
to do what you want with your network,  you just need to learn how.  I
wish you all the sucess in the world.

What do you mean by popup?  does a new window popup showing the list of
ips given out?  have you tried konqueror or nautalis?

do a rpm -i of the openLDAP src.rpm and go to your RedHat/SPECS/ dir and

You can set the shared directory to be owned by user nobody and group
"Shared" then run chmod 2770 on the directory.  any files created or put
in that directory will then be owned by the person that put it there and
the group "Shared"  so then all other members of that group will have
read write access. the only problem you will have is if you use nautilus
which seems to ignore the SGID bit konqueror has no issues and neither
does the command line.  havent tested over samba here.

Tell the installer to format the partitions.  if you have /home on a

want,  but tell it you want to verify what it does and make sure
partitions are formated.  should be ok then.

The Label puts a name for the partition which is the same regardless of
weather or not the hard drive stays in the same position,  i.e  move

Re: PDC and Windows Domain Logon Setup

2003-02-15 Thread Dennis Gilmore
It is listed somewhere  not sure where  but you need to edit the windows
registry to allow xp to join a samba controlled domain

you have a couple of options available to you to do this  they are 

Option 1: Manual registry editing
Start Regedit, navigate to:


 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetLogon\Parameters

and change


 "RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:0001

to


 "RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:
Option 2: The only way Microsoft advocate changing this setting
 1. Use Control Panel to open Local Security Policy in the
Administrative Tools.
 2. Navigate to Local Policies / Security Options.
 3. Double-click Domain Member:Digitally encrypt or sign secure
channel data (always).
 4. Press Disabled.
 5. Press Apply and OK.

Option #3: registry file
Save the followig text to requiresignorseal.reg and then right
click->Merge


 REGEDIT4
 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
 "requiresignorseal"=dword:

This file can be found in the docs/Registry directory of the Samba 2.2.2
source distribution as WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg.

I think he was getting at having a ~/.wallpapers directory where you could put

Im not sure if they can  but quite possibly if your machine has gcc3.1
it would  you could try rebuilding them.  which i did.  i only needed a
few extra devel packages to do so.

Does anyone know if Red Hat updated the gcc3.1 channel to gcc 3.2?  if

Re: Video Card recommendation

2002-11-19 Thread Dennis Gilmore
I would like to know why you must use drivers provided by the
manufacter?  From my experience i used to have a tnt2 card i used nvidia
drivers with and had x problems from time to time. I now use a ati
radeon 7000 which performs better. and is more stable with  x using the
drivers included in x which are based off of ati's specifications.  ATI 
may not release Drivers  but they support there hardware in the open
source arena in a way nvidia  never will.  and that is letting people
know how there hardware works and allowing the distributions to release
a product that will perform properly out of the box.

Isn't it better to know how the code will interact with the kernel
rather than applying unknown code to the kernel with unknown problems. 
I have seen in magazines here so called experts saying that ATI should
be avoided as they do not support linux.  To me it seems that they are
supporting linux  much more than what nvidia does.  Its a known fact
that microsoft sees nvidias code for there drivers  they know what to
expect from that code.  Nvidia does not show that curtesy to the open
source movement.

acording to the Red Hat  reference documentation you must specify a
valid dns name for all virtual Hosts  binding them to a IP address  in
your case you are not binding your secure host to an ip so it is failing
in intialization as it is setup as a virtual host by default  look at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/vhosts/name-based.html it also states 

To use name-based virtual hosting, you must designate the IP address
(and possibly port) on the server that will be accepting requests for
the hosts.


So if you wish to use ssl then you need to set it up correectly if not
comment out the ssl virtual host and you will be ok

Re: Grub and SCSI

2002-12-23 Thread Dennis Gilmore
Without a bios on the scsi card you will be unable to boot from it.  I
have a scsi card without a bios which i have a hard drive and a tape
drive attached i also have 2 ide drives in the system  each on there own
channel and i use a ide drive for booting.  for grub to know your scsi
card is there it needs to load the initrd so it can load the modules
needed. so maybe get a small ide drive for your boot partition or use a
boot disk with the needed scsi modules built in.

go to gaim.sourceforge.net/cvs.php they sugget you run ./autogen not
./gen  i'd say the info at linuxheadquarters is out of date. then run
./configure  the applet is automatically built in its a plugin that you
need to select for it to work now. they also sugest you use gmake then
gmake install  i personally just use make then make install and havent
