Does somebody use xDSL connection in Beaverton or Tigard OR?

Hello SuSE folks! I got a vital question about xDSL connection because I'm going to move in Beaverton or Tigart OR. I need to be sure that my new residency will be in the certain range to switching station for xDSL connection. GTE and USWEST refused to give me an information about these switching station locations. Probably it's a security issue. Could somebody please from Beaverton or Tigart OR send me response if there possibility to get xDSL line in their residency locations. Thank you in advance Alex

networking...

I've got a bit of a problemette at the moment. Our network is an amalgamation of Windows 9x, Windows NT (Workstation and Server), SuSE Linux and MacOS machines. The Windows machines are all on a TCP/IP ethernet, with the MacOS machines on their own little AppleTalk network. The Linux machines are NFS/NIS sharing to each other. I'd like to integrate all of the different networks into one, so that all of the resources are sharable. I've begin to do this by moving over to TCP/IP. I've been trying to use Samba, and have successfully managed to get Windows to connect to a Linux machine. The other way around, however, is a big no-no. I can't, and I've tried many times, to get Linux to access a Windows share. I have yet to try it with MacOS, but expect the same, if not more, problems. Any suggestions as to how I can get the Linux boxes to see Windows? I need all of the machines, and can't move them all to Linux (much to my despair). Any help would be appreciated!

Oh boy, you are really pissed aren't you. Well I am a newbie on Linux and I joined this list just a couple of days ago and when I read something about Linux being the best and M$ being the worst, then I thought, oh no, not another MS vs Linux discussion list. First of all: You had a little fun poked at you, but I guess it was not interpreted that way. It was not my intention to attack anyone personally, so hereby: Ben Rosenberg: My true apologies. Second: It was just my intention to state that I get bored of such discussions. I am a Windows user, yes, I am, and in my company we are thinking about having a Linux box to act as file- print- and mailserver for Windows-clients. So if anyone want to say that windows is bad and linux is good, well do so somewhere else, because I already know about the pros and cons of MS. I just want my Linux box to interact with some Windows boxes and that's it. I dont care if someone thinks I make a mistake or whatever but don't say it because I am not interested. When I have a question about M$Outlook communicating with sendmail I don't want to hear that I'd better drop Windows and get a Linux workstation, or something in that kind, because if I wanted to do so, I would have already done it and would not ask such questions. Third: About my going to hell: I won't, I will just keep on this list and hope of some fine answers on my questions which will undoubtfully be about Windows interacting with a Linux server. A little joke about Microsoft or Linux or whatever is OK every now and than, it's fun, it's good, but I still do want a serious answer on my questions. I hope you all are professionals enough to forgive me my (not intended) mistake. Grtx Hans Bouwers

Im back! Finally decided to tackle this Linux thing again. I have two questions. 1. What file do I need to edit if I want something to run when the machine is booted, not necessarily with anyone logged in. 2. I forgot the syntax to run a program that is not in the root.

Hi Team Please excuse me as I am a newbie. Can someone explain to me, or give me a pointer to an explanation of the question: "What is glibc2.0?" I expect the question I am asking is very basic, not the sort of thing this list need to be cluttered with, some pointers to the answers that a dumb might ask, would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Honzik [SMTP:dhonzik@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, July 29, 1999 4:41 PM I have SuSE Linux 6.1 installed with the 2.2.10 kernel and KDE 1.1.1 installed. I would like to try out GNOME 1.0, but every time I try the command startx gnome it says that XFree is not yet configured. My problem is that I had to go to a commerical X-server due to the fact that XFree doesn't support my graphics chip. I am using Accelerated X Ver 5.0 by Xi Graphics. How do I go about seting up the link so that error doesn't keep poping up? I had the same problem with my laptop. The easiest way is to run xf86config (the text based one) and go through the whole thing picking any server you might have installed (like svga or something), do not let it probe anything, do not let it make the link, don't let it do anything except make the configuration file. Whatever is causing the error will now happy because you've "configured" X. Accelerated X won't care because it uses a different configuration style. Unfortunately, I went through this before I found out my video card/LCD works with XFree if the kernel is compiled with frame buffer support. Is Gnome better than KDE? ??? Good luck, Tim
