|
|
|
|
Calling uuname is not a bug, you just have a uucp router in your routers
|
|
file. Or is it that smail allways uses that router even if you comment it out
|
|
in the routers ? I don't remeber.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way out is to install uucp, then smail will call uuname to
|
|
find out that the mail is not going to one of your uucp_neighbours and
|
|
will try the next router.
|
|
|
|
Even a better solution is to disable all routers and use a smart_host instead.
|
|
In that way you avoid the problems with smail not looking up MX records.

I have been given a 3bit subnet (6hosts+netaddr+broadcast) from
|
|
my internet provider. I use my linux box to establish a slip
|
|
connection and want it to provide to routing for my subnet.
|
|
the subnet is very small right now - just my linuxpc and a sun3
|
|
as an xterm to the pc (running linux-Xkernel!).
|
|
|
|
here is a little experiment I have tried:
|
|
========================================================================
|
|
ping my sun3 xterminal from a host on the slip-server side... to
|
|
check that the forwarding and routes were correct.... this is
|
|
so I can throw up X stuff on my sun3 from other places on the net.
|
|
|
|
host definitions:
|
|
picard host on net of slip-server
|
|
distraction my linux pc
|
|
weenie my sun3 as an xterminal
|
|
|
|
ip addrs:
|
|
134.207.6.40 my subnet (using last 3 bits)
|
|
124.207.6.47 broadcast for this subnet
|
|
255.255.255.248 netmask for this subnet
|
|
134.207.6.41 distraction
|
|
134.207.6.42 weenie
|
|
|
|
facts:
|
|
ping from picard to distraction is successful
|
|
ping from picard to weenie fails, but packets are delivered
|
|
to distraction's eth0
|
|
|
|
output from tcpdump while ping'ing weenie from picard:

You shouldn't need subnetting.

gateway.
|
|
|

here is what you do...
|
|
|
|
Assign IP numbers to every *interface* (not machine)..
|
|
|
|
A.slip = 127.0.0.2
|
|
B.slip = 127.0.0.3
|
|
B.eth0 = 127.0.0.4
|
|
C.eth0 = 127.0.0.5
|
|
|
|
now on A
|
|
|
|
ifconfig sl0 127.0.0.2 pointtopoint 127.0.0.3
|
|
route add 127.0.0.3 127.0.0.2
|

|

ifconfig sl0 127.0.0.3 pointtopoint 127.0.0.2

on C
|

ifconfig eth0 127.0.0.5
|
|
route add 127.0.0.4 127.0.0.5
|
|
route add default 127.0.0.4
|
|
|
|
That should do it.. (I think)
|

Don't run routed

Talk works just fine for me (Slackware 1.1.0 and kernel 1.0). Have you
|
|
checked your message setting (type 'mesg'). If the result is 'n', you
|
|
cannot be reached by talk. Try 'mesg y' and see what happens...

Subject: NIS domainname appearing in login banner
|
|
Date: 15 Sep 1994 10:31:26 GMT
|
|
|
|
I'm using Slackware 2.0 and I'm having an annoying problem. The NIS
|
|
domainname of my network is not the same as the DNS domainname. When
|
|
I set the NIS domainname, the login prompt that appears when telnet
|
|
connects contains the string
|
|
|
|
Linux 1.0.9 (hostname.NIS_DOMAINNAME) (ttyp2)
|
|
|
|
changing domainname back the the DNS domainname makes ypbind hang
|
|
(obviously). I'd like to have the login banner use the DNS domain so
|
|
that users don't get any more confused than they are already :-)
|
|
|
|
Can someone tell me what I should do to make this work the way that I
|
|
want it too. I guess that a simple way would be to modify login so
|
|
that it doesn't the domainname in the banner... Anything else that I
|
|
can try ?

do I need to install MH first or what is going on here.

Also I located a file called Xmail.1.5.tar.Z that I cannot compile, I am getting

I know that the file it wants exsists on my drive, I just don't know how to

Does anybody know how to fix this and or set up XMH or possibly find some other

Subject: Large SCSI Hard disk problem
|
|
Date: Thu, 15 Sep 1994 22:17:49 GMT
|
|
|
|
I'm just about to install a 2.1GB SCSI disk. But I've had problems with
|
|
disks larger than 1023 sectors (?) earlier. I'm going to use Slackware 2,
|
|
but I fear it is not going to install smoothly. What can I do to make it
|
|
work? Please answer by email (oystein@powertech.no), I'll repost a summary
|
|
of the information I get. I want to use LILO if I can.

Did you really want uucp_neighbors? How about removing the offending
|

router?

First of all, this question is not a linux problem. This question should be
|
|
asked in comp.mail.smail.
|
|
|
|
In answer anyway, I believe the problem is not with your machine but with
|
|
the machines that feed you (were you get your mail from). They only know
|
|
your machine only as slip65. This machine sees lupo and says "I never heard
|
|
of this machine". Your machine name has to be in the hosts file of the mail
|
|
server (which you probably don't have control over). If this doesn't answer
|
|
your question, you should post a follow-up to comp.mail.smail with more detailed
|
|
error messages (i.e. the headers of bounced mail).

Hi,
|
|
|
|
I'm looking for the e-mail address (or any contact address)
|
|
of Jean Francois Gagnon, the author of UBBS. The e-mail
|
|
address that I have is invalid (jf@ichlibx.login.qc.ca).
|
|
|
|
Any info on the matter will be appreciated. Please reply
|
|
to the address ``kontoudi@ics.forth.gr''.
|
|
|
|
Regards,
|
|
|
|
Dimitris.

Hmmm.. I downloaded it, unpacked, started - it said something like "The game was modified,
|
|
call ID to get the original version" and then - "Starting Refresh Daemon - error - PNAME
|
|
was not found"... What's wrong?

Unless you are root, you can only mount the filesystems marked with the
|
|
'user' option in the /etc/fstab file. So, yes, it would stop you from
|
|
doing that.
