I am using isapnp to probe the boards and then am using modprobe ne io=0x280 and it brings up the eth0 device.. I can set addresses etc.. but when I try to use it I get.. neighbour table overflow.. and no activity on the home lan.. what does this mean and what should be the next step.. I have a few more issues to work through too.. I compiled a custom kernel of 2.2.19 because this is basically an old ibm aptiva p133 24m ram 1.2 ghd.. I will try 2.4.x if I can't get an y results, but I want to do nat and I did not think that 2.4 had all of the nat modules. and besides I understand ipchains a little better than the symtax for iptables.. ------------------------- Patrick Turnage e-mail:pturnage@tampabay.rr.com Telephone: (850) 459-7717 HomePage: http://www.access-connect.com Amateur radio callsign:kg4dqk AOL Instant Messenger:kg4dqk icq:26862191 MSN:turnagep@hotmail.com Yahoo!:kg4dqk America Online:kg4dqk1129 kg4dqk1129@aol.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

* Re: Reply to your enquiry ` Reply to your enquiry Gregory Nowak @ ` Aaron Howell 0 siblings, 0 replies; 23+ messages in thread From: Aaron Howell @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup Actually, its interesting the whole phenomena of windows and teaching people not to think. (I believe the jargon file refers to it as a "point and drewl interface for that very reason.) as a system administrator for a university, I get to see a lot of the course material, and how its changed over the years. When I started my degree in 1996, much of the content was done under Unix, or, even better, VMS. Now, in 2002, nearly all of it is windows, visual basic and java. What we are doing today is producing graduates who have no concept whatsoever of how to work with legacy systems, stick any of this years graduates in front of an xterm and make them log into vms and they won't even make it past the password prompt. I think this will have a two-fold effect. Firstly, more and more companies will move initially to Windows based implementations of whatever, because thats all their brand new graduates know how to work with, and they've all their lives had how good Windows is drummed into them. following that will come a time of hysteria not unlike y2k (I'll call it y2.01k) when all of a sudden quite a lot of the world's major companies are going to discover that there's no new blood with any Unix or other legacy operating system experience, and those of us who do are going to be pulling massive salaries, because its going to be cheaper to maintain those legacy systems than it will be to re-implement the whole thing in Windows. in fact, in many cases, a windows reimplementation won't even be an option due to their being no code portability between X platform and anything running under Windows. Interesting times ahead I think. Regards Aaron On Thu, Aug 29, 2002 at 01:23:04PM -0500, Gregory Nowak wrote: > Yeah, I offer webmail on my site for that very same reason.
