I will give you my indiatimes account pass where some 30MB of disk space is there. Please upload it there. I don't think so any e-mail service will allow 1.7MB of attachment. Please let me know.

I have a Mandrake 8, installed on my PC. I use KPPP to connect to the net. I havent had any problems connecting to the net. but when i try to browse the net i could not. what could be wrong? I tried pinging to the ISP and some sites like yahoo, with www.yahoo.com but it just said "unkown host: www.yahoo.com". I then tried pinging the local and remote machine with the IPs i got frm the tail command, and it gave me the result. Pls guide me what could be wrong and what i should do?

Mount points
by Sameer Shinde 11 Aug '01

11 Aug '01

Hi, During the installation I found following options in mount point: / /boot /usr /home /var /opt /tmp /usr/local why r they needed? How much space should one assign for each of them during the installation? When you do the installation, where does the packages get installed ( i.e. in which mount point \ directory) How can I mount my Windows partitions in the RHL 7.1? Thanks & Regards, SAMEER :)) ~~~~~ My Messanger IDs MSN: s2sameer Yahoo!: s9sameer RediffBol: s2sameer Indiatimes: s2sameer AIM: s2sameer

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Windows/Linux IP forwarding?
by premstud＠vsnl.com 10 Aug '01

10 Aug '01

hi krishnan, i think are confusing DSL with a leased line serial connection. firstly for every DSL connection, if u started getting 4 addresses ( iam confused by what u mean by ur description of addresses here) then we would be out of stock of ip addresses in a day. ur suggestion might be right , but i would like to modify it like this without ip forwarding, |--------| ______|__ |--------| ISP | 1 | | | --------|WinBox | |LinuxBox| |__ ___2_| |________| | |----- To private network in this case, the connection from ur isp goes to the usb port A crossover cable connects the linux and the windows box. A static route is added from the NIC 1 to the linux box with NIC 1 as the gateway for packets destined to the linux box. The lan connects to the windows gateway through the 2nd NIC, and is seprated from the external network. awaiting ur comments :) regards, prem.

Re: [ILUG-BOM] SHell Scpt : Del a line..

>Hi Folks, >While doing Shell Scripting, If i need to alter/delete a line or a part >there-of, >is there any direct way, or do I wite all the contents into a new file, >ignoring >the "to-be-deleted" line / write the modified line.... You can use sed for that. Its suppossed to be the best for text manipulation. Perl is what I prefer anyways. To delete a line a simple command is sed -e 'nd' filename. where n is the line number. Visit this guide from LDP: http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/abs/html/index.html Its good for startup, has a lot of examples.
