This lets you examine what MAC addresses the local host thinks other
hosts have. If you have access to the other host you can check for
correctness (eg using ifconfig).
| 2/home/daf}ssh -l daf $C4a
I presume '$C4a' is a shell var of your containing a host or IP addr?

Try an "arp -an" now. Should be an entry for 192.168.6.32.

My first idea is that more that one machine on your network is using the
IP address 192.168.6.32, or that or your local host. This will cause
trouble. The exact behaviour varies with the OS, but it will include
aborted TCP connections (as the wrong host gets a packet and rejects it
as not being for a current connection).

| Ping works fine now. Ssh works. It's just way too slow running XMaple.
I would now start using the "ethtool" command to examine the ethernet
interfaces on your local host and on the remote one. If, for example,
one end is half duplex instead of full duplex you will see horrible
performance problems much like what you describe.
Do I recall you're using a gigabit switch? Are you using cat6 cables
throughout?

Effect on ssh of altering target's assigned ip address
by Dave Feustel
After getting ssh to work, I altered the ip addresses of my computers.
Now ssh doesn't work and neither does ping, apparently (in the case of
ping) because my switch doesn't forget ip addresses even after poweroff.
How does ssh use the target ip address?
Thanks.

Inactivity Shut-down on FC8
by Bradley
I would like to hear some ideas on how to set the computer to shut-down
due to inactivity. The feature to sleep the computer for inactivity
doesn't work properly as my computer doesn't support a "sleep" feature.
It can only hibernate or shut down. Any thoughts?

Keyboard is set to ca(fr) but on poweroff and restart, comes up as US
by Leslie S Satenstein
This is a problem on a P4 system with 1gig of memory and F10.
After a powerup, I have to go to root, or sudo system-config-keyboard and chose French Canada ca(fr) is the keyboard desired
This reset persists until the next power off.
I appears to persist during a reboot.

File server
by Arun Shrimali
Dear All,
I am planning to set up a server with the following features :
1.File server where users can save their critical data, in their home directory
2.Space allocation for individual user on server (quota for home directory).
3.Users could change their own user password.
4.Client (PC and User) should authenticate from centralized location.
5.No other user / PC should allow to patch in the network.
6.Should work for Windows and Linux clients both.
7.Restrict users to load unwanted software and play with desktops /
screen savers and other files (may be through login script).
8.Centrally updation of antivirus patches (for windows users).
9.Monitor the users and their activity.
10.Authenticate for Squid proxy server also.
11.Should able to chat through lin/win popup
Can anybody suggest me which directory server (and combination) would
be suitable for me.
As I am new to the Linux, it should be a bit user friendly also
regards

Kevin Kofler replied

Well, the f10liveinstall cd didnt work for me,
( see f10 liveinstall cd trashed my main fc5)
trying to install to one particular partition, sdb6
it instead somehow clobbered my main fc5 partition sda1.
undoubtedly mostly (entirely?) because of my own
very limited experience re installs.
Are there guidelines for using the install option?
It seemed to insist on using LVM. Can this be prevented?
Not sure, but it might also have been
trying to set up separate /boot partition?
If so, can that also be prevented?
if it insists on that, I wasnt prepared for it,
having only sdb6 i was willing to give to f10.

CPU freq & core temp
by DJ Delorie
What's the current "right" way to tell Linux (F10 in my case) to slow
down the CPU speed when the core temperature is too high? (aside from
the box's built-in "turn on wind turbines before it melts" option ;)
