For Dosemu0.52 stick with the old kernel or get a pre53-dosemu for a recent

kernel from tsx-11.mit.edu:pub/linux/ALPHA/dosemu/private/devel. Attention:

All types of SCSI-removable-disks are supported, they are recognized as

hard-drives (removable) and must be mounted/umounted like all disks/

As for a serial board, you might want to try the Cyclades. It has RISC
|
|
processors on it. They make an 8-port and a 16-port. There is an article
|
|
abour the driver in Linux Journal #5. You can contact Cyclades at

the Linux binary distribution seems to contain LBX support,
|
|
but there is little (may I say no) documentation on how to
|
|
get it started. Anyway, ...
|
|
|
|
My Linux box runs X11R6 now, and I would like to start an
|

xterm on the Sun that it is connected to via CSLIP.
|
|
|
|
I tried: rstart sun-hostname xterm
|

which complained that rstartd does not exist.
|
|
I interpret that to mean that "rstartd" does
|
|
not exist on the Sun (of course).
|
|
|
|
So the question is:
|
|
where can I get the necessary binaries and setup files
|
|
for SunOS 4.1.3 or Solaris 2.3 ?
|
|
|
|
Any help is appreciated.

BTW: XFree86 3.1 and XFree 2.1 co-exist without trouble

on my machine. Here is a snapshot of the ld situation:

Subject: shutdown without root access
|
|
Date: 4 Oct 1994 15:43:55 GMT
|
|
|
|
I am trying to set up my system so that others in my family can start
|
|
and stop it without root privileges. The /etc/passwd I inherited from
|
|
the Slackware system installation included:
|
|
|
|
sync::5:0:sync:/sbin:/bin/sync
|
|
shutdown:*:6:0:shutdown:/sbin:/sbin/shutdown
|
|
halt:*:7:0:halt:/sbin:/sbin/halt
|
|
|
|
I suppose I should use shutdown to bring the system down, since it calls
|
|
halt. When I tried logging in as 'shutdown', I was asked for a password
|
|
and of course nothing was accepted. I removed the '*' from the entry in
|
|
/etc/passwd (so no password was needed), then got the message:
|
|
|
|
shutdown: must be root.
|
|
|
|
Finally I changed '6' to '0' (so shutdown had the same userid as root),
|
|
and got a usage message:
|
|
|
|
Usage: shutdown [-krhnf] time [warning message]
|
|
-k: don't really shutdown, only warn.
|
|
-r: reboot after shutdown.
|
|
-h: halt after shutdown.
|
|
-n: don't sync before reboot or halt.
|
|
-f: do a 'fast' reboot.
|
|
-c: cancel a running shutdown.
|
|
-t secs: delay between warning and kill signal.
|
|
|
|
I then tried using the entry for halt. When I removed the '*' from its
|
|
entry in /etc/passwd and tried logging in as 'halt', I got the message:
|
|
|
|
-halt: can't idle init
|
|
|
|
Finally, I put this into /etc/inittab:
|
|
|
|
# What to do at the "Three Finger Salute".
|
|
ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -h now
|
|
|
|
This means I can't trigger a reboot from the keyboard - I have to
|
|
actually press the reset button. No big deal.
|
|
|
|
My instructions to shut down the system are:
|
|
1. logout
|
|
2. press cntl-alt-del.
|
|
|
|
My questions for the net:
|
|
Can you really run shutdown as a login shell?
|
|
When would you log in as 'halt'?
|
|
When would you log in as 'sync'?
|
|
Is my method safe? (filesystem damage, security, etc.)
|
|
Is there a better way?

May be this will be helpful:

Size of NFS package should be 1024 only. As I know default is 8K for

|
SUN and other UNIXes. Unfortunately, I do not have demand to connect SUN

to Linux, so I have not tried it. But MS-DOS NFS client (B&W) will give

Subject: identify in inetd.conf

I was just wandering if there is such a thing for Linux like I saw in
|
|
SunOS 4.1.3 in inetd.conf:
|
|
|
|
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/identify ftp-ident -b -i /usr/etc/in.ftpd
|
|
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/identify telnet-ident -b -i /usr/etc/in.telnetd
|
|
|
|
I noticed that since sysadmin put that "identify" in there is more info about
|
|
the user that does telnet or ftp to a host in /var/adm/messages
|
|
I also tried man pages but there weren't any.
|
|
So if anybody knows if there is such a thing for Linux and where to
|
|
get it please post it.
|
|
|
|
Thanx,
|
|
|
|
Kenzo

Okay, I got the two to like each other. Thanks to everyone who sent me (an
|
|
incredibly diverse myriad of) answers.
|
|
|
|
The solution for me was to a) make sure I was using a kernel >= 1.1.46 as
|
|
that's where changes were made to the partitioning tables that are *not*
|
|
backward compatible and b) make sure that I used a version of [c]fdisk
|
|
that's newer (so there's support for the new kernel shme) and actually had
|
|
it write out the partition table information even though I didn't change
|
|
any of the partitioning information (this was key, of course, to update the
|
|
tables).
|
|
|
|
After that everything worked just fine. Note that I didn't have to change
|
|
anything on the board itself (like the wacko DOS > 1 GB jumper/switch) nor
|
|
doing any bizarre things to the driver itself, nor reconfigure LILO itself.
|
|
|
|
Thanks again,
|
|
John
|
|
|
|
P.S. The Plextor 4-Plex quad speed CD-ROM drive wasn't being recognized
|
|
by the kernel because on that machine the BT445s is set to use
|
|
I/O port 130 rather than 330 and the current driver doesn't support
|
|
the use of that (and some other) address. Sigh. [Digging through
|
|
BusLogic's manuals for the fix now...]

Subject: Tcsh and Linux... how does it work?

|
Could someone say what is required to get tcsh to correctly
|
|
search its path environment when given a command . i find that I have
|
|
to give it the full path for commands eg /bin/ls, even though its
|
|
path environment has correctly set. I tried both tcsh-6.05 and tcsh-6.04
|
|
and got the same behavior.
