PIXie box heck!
1) Please verify this theory: In properly setting up the following network equipment: PIX 515e-> 2620 -> INTERNET <- 2620 <-PIX 506 WITH the PIXes encrypting VPN connections (and only 1 public IP address per 2600, the following will... -
Read keyboard input
Well, you haven't specified if you're in X-Windows or a terminal, nor if you're using SVGALib if you're in a terminal. However, if you ARE in a terminal, get NCurses and do a little reading of MAN NCURSES. There's a routine in there that does exactly what you're looking for, for a variety of... -
I use a 56K modem to connect to my
If you're only 15 feet from your box, get a long telephone cord and plug it directly into the modular jack inside the box. BEFORE you do this, unhook (cut or unscrew the inside wiring) from the posts. It is possible for the inside wiring (if causing the problem) to feed back into the terminal... -
Business Case: Key vs Centrex
Learn something new every day. My interlata centrex expertise is non-extistant. Under those conditions, you are quite correct. Have you found Voip solutions cross-country to be as fast as tradional switching methods? Going overseas with a Voip solution is tricky, at best, but have heard...- sicron

Serial connection between two Red Hat 8.0 boxes? Minicom?
My first question is WHY? In answering that question, it may be possible to find other avenues of connecting them (e.g. NIC to NIC). At any rate, if you must go serial, you can do a variety of things. The easiest thing that comes to mind is running PPPD on one and using the PPP client on...- sicron

X server won't start
First things first, run SuperProbe and verify your /etc/X11/XF86Config match video card settings. Secondly, try this: X &> out This will generate an output of what happens when you start your X server (with none of the wrapper programs). Post this for more help. "The reward of...- sicron

USB mouse problems
If memory serves (hehehee, and THAT'S questionable sometimes!), if you're using XDM for the init 4 (or 5 in inittab), XDM does NOT use XF86Config for it's settings, I think it has it's own. If I'm wrong, the other thing to check would be if you're mouse driver is modular (it sounds like it's...- sicron

Business Case: Key vs Centrex
Centrex most definately can help here. If you have a servicer savvy enough, they can program the centrex features into the KSUs so you can transfer calls as if they were in-system at ANY location. This would alliviate the cost of replacing any equipment as most (even old) key systems allow you...- sicron

Very strange thing when making patch cords
Keep in mind, too, that putting the modulars on solid-core cat-5 cable makes the cabling no longer category 5 compliant. "The reward of patience is patience" -St. Augustine -
Modem Remote Echo
How is the remote modem echoing what you type to yourself? Is it a controlling program at the remote site that you've configured to echo data back? As this is not something that you can configure the remote modem to do itself. My next questions are is the remote program something you've... -
I use a 56K modem to connect to my
Wow, I thought I was loosing my mind when I ran into this with my PC! But I just flashed my bios and enabled the bus-mastering for the modem, too. Since, I've gotten it to work. My point being, what has changed configuration-wise since you've moved? And are there any other devices... -
Need a project for C
I recently had to add routines to one program for converting strings back and forth from longs (unsigned and signed), ints, and floats (sheesh, the floats were fun.... been WAY too long since I've dealt with those). Also made a generic DATA union type that can be anything from a string to a... -
Cisco 2620 w/ 515e PIX unit
Sorry, guess that would have helped. Here's the ASCII diagram: PIX -> 2620 -> {internet} <- 2620 <- PIX Was wanting to do the 3DES with the PIXes (since the IT contractors got THAT license for both of them), tried using Cisco's example of ipsec & isakmp to no avail. "The reward... -
Cisco 2620 w/ 515e PIX unit
The more I've thought about it, if I'm right, then the only way the aforementioned setup can work is if the 2600s did the tunneling instead of the PIXes, correct? -
Cisco 2620 w/ 515e PIX unit
The 2620 is running 12.x of the IOS (sorry, can't telnet into it, don't recall the release), the PIX is running 6.x (PDM is too slow at 56k for me to post in this preliminary question). I need help in a bad way. In trying to keeps things simple (remember KISS?), I've been allocated 1...
