Thanks for the tip, it quickly pointed me in the right direction. I ended up modifying the suggestion with the following: if (! $session->login($username, $passwd)) { print "DEBUG Trying alternative login...\n"; $session = (); print "DEBUG...

I might be wrong but enterprises I thought was a reserved label numerically represented as "1.3.6.4.1". Therefore I expect the full OID would be "1.3.6.4.1.11.2.3.9.4.2.1.4.1.10.1.1.18.1.0". Cheers, Phil

Hi, I'm in the process of writing a perl script to telnet to cisco 857/870 series routers. The script itself works fine if the initial username and password are correct. Unfortunately, the routers have 2 possible sets of credentials and I would like to provide an alternate set to my script...

Hi Andy, Many thanks for your reply. I changed the access-lists to extended access lists with reflexive rules on them which solved the majority of the outbound traffic issues, but still left me unable to send ICMP packets outbound (or recieve them back in). This is the updated configuration...

After a little further invesigation I believe traffic is allowed outbound, but not back in hence ICMP and DNS failures.

Hi All, I've been configuring a Cisco 857 router and am having trouble in allowing/blocking traffic outbound from the router. I have succesfully setup incoming port forwards and the traffic is allowed back out without problems. However any traffic originating on the LAN interfaces is...

You could try remapping the keys with some software e.g. http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/ There's plenty of other software like that including ones which work on a regional local (which could be changed for a particular user rather than being global).

I have recently attempted to install Ubuntu Linux and have it dual boot off XP's ntldr. I have run through several howto's and read a fair amount on forums to try and get this working myself; but am failing at getting grub chain loaded from ntldr. My disk geometry and fdisk output are at the...

Hi I'm having problems with Dell 2500's that have had their shipped SEAGATE DDS4 drive replaced with a SONY DDS4. Now have problems with tape drive, in that unable to read/write data - though unload, reset, rewind will work. Unsure of whether to try updating driver for alad - current version...

netconfig is built in but can also be accessed from scoadmin networks. I thought VisionFS shipped with SCO, nonetheless, I find Samba a more reliable and functional file sharing tool. As for getting Samba on SCO - go to samba.org and read about making samba. Basically you will need to compile...

Just make sure /etc/utmp exists and is linked to /var/opt/K/SCO/Unix/5.0.X/etc/utmp. Can anyone else login via telnet to that box? Is console operation OK?

DSMARWAY - I don't manage or have anything to do with the hub unfortunately. I'm getting to the point where I'd rather the hub config changed than some of the servers. E.g. on some NIC's you can't change duplex settings from netconfig. The override method is a little intense - changing c...

Try: usermod -D -x "{maxLoginAttempts 3}" This is what I use to set to three unsuccessful logins before locking out the account. Phil

On a reboot of the server during the problem time, it loaded up with portmapper error messages. On a second reboot, the patch cable into the back of the machine was disconnected and reattached (although, cannot confirm it was attached in the first place - telephone support!). It came back...

Hi All I'm hoping I already know the answer to this one - it confirmation I'm after really! A mission critical remote server dropped off the network at a given time, and reported "eeE: Lost Link" in syslog. My thoughts are that for the server to have written to syslog, suggests its...
