i have a simple LAN with a linux box gateway using ip
masquerading. everything works fine except my internal windows 95 machine
cannot access the DNS. setup is pretty simple on the windows machine so
i'm assuming something needs to be done with the ip masquerading to enable
DN services???
a
Just make sure your windows95 box has its DNS enabled, (you can put the
same servers there as you have for your linux box) and make sure your
gateway isn't blocking hmm port 53 I think. Ipmasq doesn't need anything
special.

I believe most of the mirrors (if not all) carry the

Like any other file, e.g. "less .topsecret"
Use "ls -a" if you wish "ls" to list them too.

I had a functional ssh (potato/ppc), but now it has stopped
working. The error message I get is
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
when I try to connect to the same hosts as before. I have no idea why.
(ssh is already purged and reinstalled.)

Can you take a look at the syslog of the other host??? Maybe that gives
you some more information.

I'll check that HOWTO. University LAN it is (Maryland). We have

I'm having a problem with NFS. My basic NFS is working; so I can mount
the shares remotely. The problem is that I cannot "see" submounted
partitions from across the network.
For example, on the server I have /home/ftp/pub as one partition. Then I
have /home/ftp/pub/linux/debian as another

Hello;
some time ago I began to look for a good driver for my Epson Stylus

That's why on new debian installations the log are owned by root.root.
However, if the logs were already owned by www-data.www-data t
