[S.u.S.E. Linux] [S.u.S.E Linux] Problems in telneting from win95 client.
Hi, I have a 2 computer intranet :-) at home. One of them runs only linux and is configured as a server of httpd, ftp, news, dns, mars, samba, etc. The other runs both linux and window$. When i boot linux in the client machine all works ok. All shared stuff is shared, i can telnet, ftp, lynx, etc. into it. When i boot window$, i can not do anything. The exact simptom in telnet is that the login goes ok and i get the prompt from bash. When i do an ls in an empty directory it goes ok. If i try do ls the / directory i stop getting echo. If i Ctrl-D the keystroke gets to the server and kills the connection but i cannot see anything on the terminal window. With ftp i get the first two lines of the server welcome message and then it stops. With dns all works ok. I think that if there is very little data to cross the network all is ok. If the ammount of data goes over some quantity, which i don't know, the server stops sending data to the client. Can anyone help me in figuring out what is going on ? Remember that all works ok with linux.

I run a small intranet with OS/2 & Linux on one machine and Win95 on the other. OS/2, to date I have not been able to get to communicate with Win95. My Linux machine on the other hand provides all the services that you mention plus it is the gateway to the internet via Apache as a proxy server. At any rate, if your window$ is Win95, then you will need to go into your (I'm taking for granted that you have samba configured correctly on your Linux box), Control Folder and open the network icon. Make sure that tcpip is in there as a protocol (that's the only way I could get it to work on my win machine). Also, make sure that Samba is in there as well. (I'm trying to pull all of this off the top of my head:-) You will need to make sure the default Client is set up for Microsoft networks. In your tcpip, you will need to set your gateway address (intranet address for your linux server). It is, also it is best to set up your IP address in tcpip to that of your wins machine. Since you have DNS set up, it wouldn't hurt to enable dns lookup:-)
When i boot linux in the client machine all works ok. All shared stuff is
Linux is very easy to set up as far as sharing goes, but to get Win to cooperate, you will have to make sure you have file/print share enabled. Also, I found it to work best to set up Win with user share. The only real problem with that is that you will have to name a server for password authentication. It usually works best to use the name of the machine you are trying to share directories with:-) (But that part, I haven't yet got to work in Linux:-( BTW, with my present configuration, I can telnet into linux, but not into win95:-( But, I can access the web page on Win95:-)
shared, i can telnet, ftp, lynx, etc. into it. When i boot window$, i can not do anything. The exact simptom in telnet is that the login goes ok and i get the prompt from bash. When i do an ls in an empty directory it goes ok. If i try do ls the / directory i stop getting echo. If i Ctrl-D the keystroke gets to the
Ctrl-D is the linux logout hot key and for some reason it always kills the connection:-0But one thing you may want to check on your telnet terminal is in your preferences. Make sure your buffers is a fairly high number. Also, check your terminal emulation and there are some other buttons that you can select.
I think that if there is very little data to cross the network all is ok. If the ammount of data goes over some quantity, which i don't know, the server stops sending data to the client.
Checking my Samba logs (log.win95) apparently win95 wants to keep the window at 2998 (or some strange number like that). Also, come to think of it, there are a couple of "text" files in /windows that does have an effect as well. Look for "networks" and make sure your machines are all listed. Also believe it or not, there is a hosts file as well.

I'm thinking of breaking my piggy bank and dropping $158 on a Palm Pilot, now that prices have lowered for the original version. The precondition for the purchase, of course, is being able to use most of the Pilot's features without the agony of booting into W_n95 (cringe). Does anybody use the Pilot with Linux and/or S.u.S.E. 5.2? If so, what applications are necessary to get started? Any config difficulties? I've also heard thru the rumor mill that the Pilot can run a version of Linux tailored for this device. Anybody have experience with this? Thanks! I really need to get myself organized with this product! -- Glenn -- - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
My recommendations is if your into it do play with it. There is now alot of software availble in Linux for the Palm and Ryseron (part of UofT) is currently working on a port to Linux on the Palm. Its rough but it works but requires a memory upgrade. Start with Linux.org>projects>microcontroller to get you going, then do an altvista search "Linux+Palmpilot" you will find a small gold mine. Yes the palm can be sinked to Linux. Kde even has a small program (not tested yet) Kpilot, there is a samll but fucntional developers kit, and an emulator xcopilot (bugger to set up though). The short of it is that it can be done. Soory all my bookmarks are at work and Im late getting to the office this morning. Will post later as time permits. ch misc.word.corp wrote:

Using Linux on the Pilot is a waste for folks who want a PDA. If you have a *need* for an ultra-tiny *Linux* box for some reason (and if you had that reason you'd know it), then it's interesting. Otherwise, PalmOS is open enough that you can develop for it and it is VERY good as a PDA OS.

See <A HREF="http://developer.redhat.com"><A HREF="http://developer.redhat.com</A">http://developer.redhat.com. I have RPMs for RH of xcopilot, pilot-link, and the prc-tools (which is an entire development environment for the Pilot...gcc, binutils, gdb, libc, libm, etc). You should be able to grab the SRPMs and just do a --rebuild on them under SuSE. --Donnie -- Donnie Barnes <A HREF="http://www.redhat.com/~djb"><A HREF="http://www.redhat.com/~djb</A">http://www.redhat.com/~djb djb@redhat.com "Bah."

Glenn, I have no words of advice on how to make this work, but that is a great idea. I hope you find some one who can help you. Steve misc.word.corp wrote:

DO IT!!! Note: Personal is missing the TCP/IP stack and the Mail app, which you might appreciate as a Linux user. However, both are upgradable to Palm III status with an add-on card (YES including Infrared, which some got to work on Linux as well).

Yep, it works really well, get the Pilot-Link tools, ftp.ryeham.ee.ryerson.edu, I think (experiment with that.. it may be .ca instead of edu, I can never remember it!) You can check my PalmPilot page for some links (presuming it's not misspelled even there!) It's not really extensively documented, but is getting better. Main syntax: pilot-xfer /dev/pilot appname.prc Will install appname.prc on the machine (create symlink /dev/pilot manually). You have to brave several obtuse menus in Win95 to get to that point. You can also synchronize, backup, restore (bulk app installs), synchronize ical, Plan (in alpha I think), there's a free restaurant database called "Food" in the package... Awesome. Then there's KPilot, which is apparently so much more, but it needs glibc! Check www.ultraviolet.org for the mailing list.
I've also heard thru the rumor mill that the Pilot can run a version of Linux tailored for this device. Anybody have experience with this?
It needs at least a 3MB TRG SuperPilot board. I don't see the practicality of it. You can telnet into a real Linux machine with it (Note: TCP/IP!)
Thanks! I really need to get myself organized with this product!
That's exactly what it will do. --- jonathan@aracnet.net <A HREF="http://members.xoom.com/JMarkevich"><A HREF="http://members.xoom.com/JMarkevich</A">http://members.xoom.com/JMarkevich - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
Try setting the terminal type explicitly after login. bash, ksh: export TERM=vt100 tcsh, csh: setenv TERM vt100 Regards, C. J. Tan On Mon, 29 Jun 1998, Michele America wrote:
