I think it's called "bootpd", and it _is_ in netstd by that name.

Oops, maybe bootpd is a different protocol from rpc.bootparamd.
There's a Contents and Contents.gz file in the distribution that provides a
mapping from file names to the package containing them. This supplements
the Packages file.

Some list mail and other debian mail will have its delivery delayed.
The mail delivery agent was accidentaly replaced on our main system and
now I have an smail queue of this morning's messages. Smail proved it was

I've been trying to connect through my schools dial up system for sometime

Have you tried something like minicom. It just dials your modem but is
nice for doing some diagnostics. You can tell it to use either
/dev/tty?? or /dev/modem. You could also tell your ppp dialer to use a
tty instead of modem. /dev/modem is just a convenience -- not a
requirement.

Hi,
For the starters you could try /dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/tty0. If
/dev/ttyS0 doesn't work try ttyS1-ttyS3. The /dev/ttyS0 through /dev/ttyS3
are the com devices in Linux.
For testing you could try minicom (comm/minicom_1.75-2.deb in stable) and
issue some AT commands (ATI4 might output so

I recently downloaded the source for bash2.01 from sunsite and compiled it my
self. I copied the bash executable to /bin, being sure to backup the old
executable. Now most things seem to work fine. I had read the reason helper
apps don't work with Netscape was a bug in bash 2.0. I can now call

Check that all directories above your home directories are rwxr-xr-x.

I have a very weird problem.
I can connect to FTP servers but I can't "get", "dir" or "ls", although I
can "cd".
I also just noticed that I cannot receive e-mail from any outside account,
although I can receive e-mail from an account inside prognet.com (my
domain)
