Any idea where I can find up-to-date documentation on hylafax. Not like their website, that specifies a 33.6 modem as a fast modem.

Hi guys I still need some help *bump*

I got a newer modem driver from linmodems.org. I got one for my kernel specifically. It still gives the "Sorry, we support only 2.4 and above kernels. " error, but I can dail the modem to my ISP now. I will set up efax to test the faxing. Can anyone help me with how to configure the PCI modem in hylafax

I'm trying to set up a fax server. I want to use HylaFAX ( give me a better alternative if you can,PLEASE). I have two incoming fax lines going into 2 PCI internal FAX modems. I also want to add a 3rd external modem for outgoing faxes. I have been having problems at EVERY turn. My current problem is: I DON'T KNOW ON WHICH COM PORT MY PCI MODEM IS YOU STUPID MODEM CONFIG SCRIPT!! I read some thing about adding a modem on "ttySx". I have NO clue what that is. harddrake picks up my 2 internal modems (Conexant HSF 56k data/fax/voice/Spkp (w/Handset) Modem Worldwide SmartDAA), but when i want to configure them using harddrake I get the following error: Sorry, we support only 2.4 and above kernels. I'm running mandrake 10.0 CE I don't know if this problem affects my first. I have been Chewing on this problem for 2 whole days PLEASE HELP

Ok I tried this and it did not work. I thing my script wont run from the startup folder. Is there somewhere I can put a command to run the script from it's original location. Note that I want to run it when the pc starts up (before login)

Can anyone explain to me how the runlevels work. I want my mandrake to run a script at startup. I already put the script in the "init.d" folder and made symbolic links from the rc3.d and rc6.d (an example told me to do It this way). I understand what I'm doing up to that point, but I need clarification on two things 1. What is the differences between the run levels 2. Why are all the links named with a K80<filename> or S01<filename>.

Thanx everyone!

Thanks How do I then run the Gui from the command line. What is the command?

I want to use a box as a server, so I don't want the GUI to start (and use up resources) When the PC restarts. Can I change the settings so that the GUI only starts when I give it the command? What would that command be?

That error acually prevents you from having network access, when your not running X It took me a long while to figure that one out.

What file do I edit to determine what services run at startup (eg ftp) I know how to run a service Also if someone can tell me how to add a program as a service under mandrake, it would be nice

I'm considering shorewall. Could you guys let me in on how difficult shorewall is to set up? would I (limited linux knowlage, but good in IT in general) be able to set it up?

Streeter is right. I am new to this company. They used to outsource their it networking. I'm just here investigate some possibilities. The gateway machine is running red hat 7, so I think iptables could work. At the moment I need to get access to our web server(runs a internal web-based application) from the internet. I understand the concepts of firewalls, but I have no experiece with linux firewalls. I think my problem is that the port forwarding I am using, is not configured right, or the firewall might be blocking the the incoming request on the port I want. I'm Attaching a file with a segment of the script (Don't worry It does not contain my public ip) script_segment.rtf

I know it's old, but the current script file is 500 lines. I do not want to rewrite it in another program.

I want to access a web server at my office from the internet. I have a linux firewall/gateway that is connected to a router that is connected the the modem. I have to use ipchains to configure the firewall. the web server uses port 8080. What do I have to add to my firewall script to get this to work

I have a linux box (Red Hat 7) running at my ISP. I would like to know if there is a way to backup an entire linux installation to a remote location using only a ssh terminal?And also how to restore it

I like to set the PATH and CLASSPATH variables as wel, but I can't seem to get them set to the right values

Im have trouble setting the environmental variables in Mandrake 10 Could someone give me a HOW-TO

Now a sasser type worm could REALLY mess up your day. :lol:

Be carfull when buying new ram for you old p2. Some of the newer SDRAM does not work in older MB's. (HINT) I run Mandrake 10 on a P3 667 with 128mb RAM. And It runs better with mandrake than My AthlonXP 1500 (384mb Ram) runs with Win XP.

The only thing I can do is unmount the point. I can't remove it completely. It still tries to reconnect at startup.

I "mounted" a shared folder on a win2000 pc using samba each time I restart my linux box, it pauses when it wants to remount that point. I have to press enter to continue booting. Any advice?

Thanks a lot. You completely solved my problems. (I'm sure more will come up in the future) Thanks

I downloaded Mozilla Firefox. I wat to set it as my default browser. I don't want to run the shell script each time I want to use it.
