Not only unregistered, but also lacking a full networking installation -

will it work then? Typically software I've tried to run can't determine

my hostname, and aborts, even though I have a rudimentary identification

I can't seem to use xmkmf because the file Imake.tmpl is not found in /usr/lib/X11/config. Does anyone know what Slackware Dist. disks this file can be found on, as I really don't want to have to reinstall X. I installed the X,Xdev, and X apps

disks way back in the spring. All works great under kernel 0.99.pl15. What am I missing?

FlexFAX doesn't compile "out of the box" on Linux systems due to a
|
|
little faulty assumption in the configure script that comes with the
|
|
package. I've included a small patch at the end of this post which
|
|
should make things compile cleanly; after applying the patch, just run
|
|
"configure linux-gcc" and it should recreate port.h as it should be.
|
|
A couple of minor warnings are issued for casts in auth.c, but these
|
|
can be safely ignored.
|
|
|
|
For your reference, I use GCC 2.5.8 and libc-4.5.26; many people have
|
|
reported problems compiling FlexFAX under GCC 2.6.0, so I would advise
|
|
against it.
|
|
|
|
More importantly, getting FlexFAX to COMPILE isn't the whole story.
|
|
As someone else alluded to, getting this package to WORK seems to
|
|
involve having the "right" modem. While FlexFAX supports a wide
|
|
variety of modems and has a lot of useful documentation to help you
|
|
get yours configured properly, some modems (notably USR Sportsters)
|
|
give it headaches.
|
|
|
|
As a side-note, you will also need to use a kernel version which has
|
|
working software flow control (XON/XOFF). Versions 1.1.42 and later
|
|
are fixed, and I believe the 1.0.x kernels still work, but somewhere
|
|
in-between the handshaking was broken. Bear this in mind no matter
|
|
which fax program you choose, since software flow control is
|
|
essential.
|
|
|
|
You may honestly find the efax-Qfax combination considerably easier to
|
|
install and use for most Class 1 or 2 fax-modems, but then I'm a
|
|
little biased :)

This is much too complex. Proxy ARP will do what you want in a

This kind of numbers are listed in the most current "Assigned numbers"

RFC, which also usually points to a reference.

There is also an RFC about encapsulation (RFC 1241)

|
|
|
|
"Proxy ARP" means that a system which knows the route to a certain
|
|
destination (e.g. it has a SLIP link to it) replies to ARP requests
|
|
for that destination on another network. It replies with its own
|
|
hardware address.
|
|
|
|
E.g.: one system is on an ethernet and has address 192.0.0.1
|
|
A second system is linked to it using SLIP and has address 192.0.0.2
|
|
Now, when some system on the ethernet asks for the hardware address of
|
|
192.0.0.2, the first system replies with its hardware address. All
|
|
packets for 192.0.0.2 will then be sent to the hardware address of
|
|
system 192.0.0.1, and it will route them to the proper SLIP link without
|
|
further modifications. So, there is no need to check every packet on
|
|
the ethernet, only the ARP requests (which are all received anyway).
|
|
|
|
I don't know if Linux supports this in some way. If not, it can be
|
|
added.

Do you include <stdlib.h> ?

There are several CD-ROMs available that allow you to do this...
|
|
|
|
(well, not actually *booting* from CD-ROM, that was something that only
|
|
lived in the 386BSD PR-guy's mind... but having all the files on CD-ROM

is a realistic possibility, with a small bootable partition on HD)

NO. I can connect to any Internet site from amateur radio if I wish.
|
|
But I should only access data relating to amateur radio. I should
|
|
not ftp to sunsite.unc.edu and get the latest version of DOOM, as it

|
is not related to amateur radio. I can get Linux (it would take forever

Not necessarily a bad thing. My two year old loves to listen to HF chatter

Well you do actually have to buy or build radios and accessories. I have

Is anyone currently developing extensions to make Linux a

Plug and Play (tm) compliant operating system? I may be interested in
