Wow, great answer. You should be writing books dude!!! (hey, maybe you are?) I know it was probably a simple question, however, I have only been using Linux for a couple weeks. You're answer shed a lot of light and re-enforces the Linux community looks after its own as well as newcommers. In...

Seems like a simple task, when verifying a package dependency in RPM manager I get the following: "Found 0 source and 1 binary packages Dependency Problem: /bin/perl is needed by (application package)" How dow I remedy this? I am doing this as root on RH 7.1 I am not Linux...

Sorry, no "Recycle Bin" on Cisco gear. When it's gone it's gone. Regards, Don

Although you are looking for a sample of PAP configs, I would strongly suggest you go with CHAP. Remember, PAP sends passwords io clear text i.e. laas%#$%^%$(*^*$$^%$HERE_IS_MY_PASSWORD^%$^%$&^uyfgudwq. CHAP is far more secure. Here is the whole setup in 3 lines. ROUTER1: (apply to...

Yes, if what you are trying to say is that you are simply leasing a private connection i.e T-1 from your provider. You can run P2P or Frame or.... It's you link, you can run whatever your hardware is capable of. Don Regards, Don

The only interfaces that can basically talk DSL are ATM Modules and DSL WIC's i.e. ADSL-WIC. Been there tried that but... i couldn't get anywhere. It's kinda like ISDN in that DSL has specific hardware requirements unlike the numerous serial connections available. Don Regards, Don

The spec for Coax DS3 w/BNC connection @ 45MBS is 150 Meters/500 Feet. If this distance is lower than what you need, you simply add repeaters. Keep in mind the 5/4/3 rule. In case you forgot it, or never cared to remember it like some of us it means: The maximum number of segments is 5...

I had a chance to play with it... not appropriate for CCNP training. I specifically worked with the Switching (second version) and was not impressed by the labs, nor the amount of commands you are limited to. One benifit however, is in the new version you can create your own topology (sort...

Cisco no support Visio icons make Homer something something... Ain't gonna happen, strongest network hardware manufacturer + most popular diagram software = continued support: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/503/visioicons.html Regards, Don

"Serial0 is down, line protocol is down" This output means you have a problem with the cable, channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU), or the serial line. You need to troubleshoot the problem with a loopback test. To do a loopback test, follow the steps below: Set the serial...

Mike, you should formalize your suggestion into an FAQ. i.e. How to Multiplex DSL Lines. Such a scenario is common in ISDN (BRI) lines, why not DSL?? Again, just a thought ;-) Regards, Don

Can you post a config? Blank out the confidential parts appropriately, unless you wanna throw the hackers a bone! Regards, Don

You can console by using a 25-pin to RJ-45 adapter on the router side connected via flat rollover cable to a RJ-45 to 9-pin adapter on your notebooks serial port. Regards, Don
