Hi,
I would like to set up my linux system so that I can operate in two

Hi!
I need a custom kernel for ide-scsi-emulation, 3 ethernet-cards and so on.

Assuming Win95 is on /dev/hda1, add the following lines to
/etc/lilo.conf:
You can run /usr/sbin/liloconfig to set up lilo.

Just reread your note: Win 95 on a 16 Gig partition? I think you
may need to put the Linux boot image on /dev/hda1 for this to work
but others may know better.

See other followups regarding LILO -- you'll have to use some sort of

The phone number only resides in /etc/chatscripts/provider. Though now

I want to temporary block access to pppd. I want to allow my users
only to use ppp at a predefined time, say 1200-1300.
I have a mechanism like /etc/porttime in mind. My experiments with
ppp-pam and pam_time.so bore no fruit. I have masqdialer installed,
too. Any ideas?
