Subj: pc and mac + dsl network setup help req

From: bqg <bqg@pacbell.net>

i'm looking to setup an ethernet network between a pc and a mac and be
able to use my ethernet connection to dsl. any ideas on how i wold go
about this.  i got a program called dave which allows you to configure
tcp/ip to work with a pc, but it seem this would override my settings
for my dsl.
also would i need a secondary ethernet card for one of the computers or
woild i just get a hub that the dsl feeds into.  any help would be
greatly appreciated.


thanks,

quincy

Try running "netscape /?". It should give you the parameters.

Now, now, there. We must all keep a civil tongue in our head. You get more 
flies with honey than vinegar, remember. (If you want flies.) Suffer fools 
gladly, at least.

The URL you want is:

	http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/deploymt/options.htm

And of course you have to be connected to see it. Why Netscape in their 
Corporate Wisdom didn't think it best to make this a local file, I'll never
understand, but that's the way it is.


Good luck,

Buddy

Are you trying to be an asshole, or was it incepted in you at birth?

It *DID* work, atleast in previous versions of Netscape.

Next time somebody wants help in this group, I just won't respond. How's that
sound? I'm sure you'd love that, wouldn't you? It would be great if more
people stuck their heads up their asses like yourself and flamed people for
attempting to help others.

Go piss in a light socket.

I want to have a backup DNS to our ISP and the DDNS that ships with WSeB
seems to be a version
of Bind...The hosts file is ONLY for local intranet hosts.

Subj: apache password creation fails

From: George John <gjohn@csom.umn.edu>

I am testing out apache for os/2 1.39, and the htpasswd program fails
when I try to add a new user to an existing password file.  I can always
create a brand new password file with a single user and password, but if
I try to add to that file, I get an error message.  I can get to the
point where it asks me to retype the password, but then it says that the
cp command is not available.

Any ideas?

Where do Apache os2 users hand out?

Cheers,

Same here. I have resorted to creating the new user and copy/paste that
into the existing password file.

Subj: IBM ---->AT&T Worldnet-What, me worry?

From: htravis@ibm.net (Harry Travis)

In the old days of the late mid 90s, one reason I didn't use AT&T
Worldnet for Internet service was my perception of insistence that I be
using Win software to get any service. 

Should I be worried by a current 10 page e-mail (I'm not quoting it, I
know) on how I will soon not be a customer of  ibm.net, from whom I've
gotten good electronic service always, and good enough attention to OS/2
particulars when I needed it (rarely)?
