[SuSE Linux] Apache default directory
by KEdmunds＠eu.wcom.net 08 Dec '98

08 Dec '98

I've been playing with Apache, and it seems that, by default, the "root" directory for the httpd is /usr/docs/httpd/htdocs - in other words, if I type in the name of my Linux machine to a web browser, it opens index.html in that directory by default. Where is this defined? I have searched everywhere I can think of! I want my web server root directory to be elsewhere: can I define that in /etc/httpd/httpd.conf? Thanks for any help.

[SuSE Linux] ethernet problems: sorry, guys.
by mm211595＠oak.cats.ohiou.edu 08 Dec '98

08 Dec '98

Hey, all. I've got everything working now. I am sorry to have bothered you about this. I am a bit too quick to run for help when I don't understand something. This time, the firewall was indeed the problem. There was some sort of memory problem (It's admined on an NT box, surprise), and all of the proxies had died. The telnet proxy was new, so it wasn't affected. Anyway, thanks to all for the suggestions. -Chris -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS/CC/MC d- s+:+ a-- C++ US P L++ E W++ N- o?

[SuSE Linux] Ethernet problems...
by mm211595＠oak.cats.ohiou.edu 08 Dec '98

08 Dec '98

Greetings, all. I am currently unsuccessful in getting my Ethernet card set up correctly, or so it would seem. I am behind a firewall (or would be if I could talk to it), first of all. Here's the deal: I have an SMC EtherPower 10/100 ethernet card, which has the Tulip 21140 chip onboard. So, I've selected that, and all seemed just fine. However, I can't seem to reach anything. My firewall(Which is also my DNS, in this case) is not reachable, I cannot ping it at 11.1.0.1, nor can I access any other services. There is one anomalous setup message. It seems fairly harmless, though. At boot time, I get a string of messages like this: eth0: Digital DS21140 Tulip an 0xfc80, 00 00 c0 2b 40 c8, IRQ 5 eth0: Old format EEPROM on 'SMC9332DST' board. Using substitute media control info. eth0: EEPROM default media type Autosense. eth0: Index #0 - Media 10baseT (#0) described by a 21140 non-MII (0) block. eth0: Index #1 - Media 100baseTx (#3) described by a 21140 non-MII (0) block. Does this look unusual to anyone? I'll admit that I don't know what those last two messages mean... Anyway, I would be quite happy to provide any more info as needed. I'd like to get the system up and running (SuSE 5.3 2.0.35 stock kernel on a Gateway P4D-66) so I can impress my employers. I am currently interning at a networking firm that deals mainly with Cisco and Lucent networking stuff. Unfortunately, they are just about 100% NT for their NOSes. While they will probably stick to that for awhile (due to customer demand), I want to show them that Linux can be a viable alternative. It's hard to do so when you can't even get on the network ;-) I apologize for being so naive about all of this. My setup background is almost entirely on a dialup basis. The Ethernet setup is one big black box for me. Thanks in advance! -Chris -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS/CC/MC d- s+:+ a-- C++ US P L++ E W++ N- o?

[SuSE Linux] ethernet problems: update
by mm211595＠oak.cats.ohiou.edu 08 Dec '98

08 Dec '98

Okay, I've gotten my card connected correctly now. It would seem that the PCI slot was bad. Now, on to my new set of problems :-) Some of my services are not working... Originally, I hit the firewall with telnet, but I had the admin let me out. However, I cannot use http, POP3, or any other services other than telnet. It's not even reaching the firewall. My original forays for the telnet session show up on the denial log, but there aren't any other entries. I get a "Connection refused" error for every page that I try. Now, I know that both my gateway and my nameserver work because I can get to my university account using the literal name (rather than the numerical IP address). Does anyone have any clue what could be blocking me within my machine? Which settings should I look at? One note: my domain name is bogus, but I am told that this would not matter. I am sorry for the scanty details, but I thought it would be better to ask you guys which files/settings to look at rather than dumping every config and logfile that I could find... Again, TIA :-) -Chris -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS/CC/MC d- s+:+ a-- C++ US P L++ E W++ N- o?

When I connect using kppp to my ISP they assigns an IP address for my machine how does this affect the Network? As you can guess I'm not really a 'network guy' so any help would be appreciated in most simple terms! (Also I'm trying to setup the following system any help much appreciated!!!!!) 1 server acting as file/print/fax server 4 workstations probably win95/nt connected to server (2/3 dial in accounts.... i.e people from home can dial in and use services.) Some sort of fax system to scan documents/print to fax probably hylafax but needs win clients. Network printing. any suggestions on best configuration. also... Is there any support for Infra-red under Linux... ? if so please give a blow by blow account! finally I have Suse on my Libretto when I put the machine into standby and later restart the machine either hangs or I basically cannot restart Kde until I reboot is this normal, are there any work arounds?
