Hi, I need (want) to install linux on a Sparcstation, which "luckily" doesn't have floppy or cdrom. It does have an ethernet card, so if I just knew HOW it should be possible :-) What I would like to ask you guyz is: Do you know of a good/stable distribution I can use, and do you...

Finally I get the time to "work" on this task again... The machine is a Sun Sparcstation 5, with (I believe) 128 MB RAM... As mentioned earlier, no floppy or cdrom, but a NIC. I thought I could use this machine as a DHCP, DNS, Samba server for my LAN (home LAN).... Any suggestions...

Hi, Anyone know of a good tool for isdnlog formatting??? I think the standard log is pretty hard too read... Something HTML based maybe? Would be nice to get an overview over total connected time for a certain periode, average cost and so on... Any good hints? --xx--

Whats the differense??? Its a UNIX based machine that I want to install Linux on, via Ethernet...

Hi, To finish this thread - its now working :-) I checked the "guide" referred to above, and it became clear that the problem was me mixing the BIOS clock, the system clock, using UTC or not, and so on... Keep focused when setting the different clocks, and then it should work just...

Hi, Just to finish this thread - its now working :-) I removed all config for the printer (in Samba and generally for Linux), then configured the printer again, added the lines in the answer above in samba-config, and then it worked! Thanxx for your help! Helge --xx--

Hi, When you say "boot with the boot floppy and follow instructions"... The UNIX machine don't have a floppy drive... so I guess I have to make it boot from the network, via the DHCP server or something... right? That's where I do need help - what tasks to perform, configuration...

Hi, I've got an UNIX machine, with no floppy or cdrom, but fortunately a network interface card :-) My question now is - is there anyone who can provide me with a "userguide" for how to perform a linux-installation on this machine using my home LAN?? Reg., Helge --xx--

So nobody is actually able to help me out here??? I still can't print from the XP box... well, I guess I'll have to connect the printer to the XP box instead, then everything will be working fine... XP=easy, LINUX=too hard.... too bad....

Hi again, I tried to comment out the "time-stuff" in the /etc/services file, and I had a "tail -f" on the /var/log/messages file. Nothing happened in the log, and the clock STILL got altered somehow / by some service. This is really starting to annoy me! Help will be...

Hi again! Yes, in /etc/services I have the following: #more /etc/services | grep time daytime 13/tcp daytime 13/udp time 37/tcp timserver time 37/udp timserver utime 519/tcp unixtime utime 519/udp...

I'll check (when I get home) for the file in /etc... Hopefully I don't have to turn off the machine for 24 hours, would be too long ;-) So the message in /var/log/message that linesrv is doing something doesn't mean that linesrv is actually altering the system time??? I was starting looking for...

Hi, Tried the commands, and removed both the network and the ISDN cable. However, clock still gets altered somehow.... I found this in my /var/log/messages file: Feb 10 19:54:06 joppe linesrv[2737]: system-time changed (-26 secs), updating variables Feb 10 16:55:02 joppe linesrv[2737]...

Yes, the drivers are installed on the XP box...

Hi, I've installed Samba on my Linux box, and have a XP-box connected via ethernet. Everything's working fine, exept I can't print from the XP box. Using smbclient on the Linux machine, I can connect to the samba-printer, and print using the "print" command. The printer is popping up...

Hi again, I can now state that the clock IS changing even if the machine is running - so that rules out the CMOS battery, right? I have no ntpd running. At least not of my knowlegde (ps -ef | grep ntp as root). And the clock is still living its own life... anyone else that can help me fix this...

It happens all the time... If I set the correct time, and then leave the computer for a while (well, give it a few hours maybe), its certain its changed when I get back to it...

Hi, I've installed Red Hat 8.0, and have been running it for a while (playing with Samba and other stuff). One problem I keep seeing (several times a day) is that the clock keeps living its own life. I put it on "right time", and then after a while, its one (or more) hours ahead of...

You could install a third party tool called "webmin", good to configure the servers you want (browser interface), I think :-)

Are you then able to use it directly from a browser, at http://localhost:901 ????? Or do you have to do more configuring to make it work?
