    Need to add parallel ports

    I need to add a couple of parallel ports to a Linux machine, but I'm having a hard time locating a PCI parallel port card that will work with it. The only cards that I could locate had Windows drivers only. Anybody know if a source?

    tar: directory checksum error

    I received this message while attempting to restore a group of archived files. Is this caused by a bad backup, or is there something else going on here? It had been compressed prior to being stored on tape. I used tar to copy the comressed file off the tape into a temporary directory...

    5250 terminal emulation needed

    I need to connect my OpenServer via VPN to a vendor's site and provide 5250 terminal sessions to the unix users to look up information on an AS/400. The Unix users are all on Wyse 60's just to further confuse things. I see that TinyTerm will allow a PC on the system to work OK, but I'm looking...

    Opinion Needed - Disk Space

    I have a Windows 2000 SBS server with two 9GB hard drives mirrored. The server provides file and print services for 4 local users and terminal services for one remote user. Of the 9GB storage, a check of the hard drive shows only 2Gb free storage remaining. Will this low of free space start...

    VPN Connection to Win2K Server?

    Anybody have any suggestions on how I can connect to a Win2K server via VPN? Our company has one already set up for the Windows users in the company and refuse to learn anything about Linux, so whatever solution I find has to be compatable with what's already set up. I'm running mandrake 8.2...

    Replacing Dumb Terminal W/ Linux PC

    I need to replace some Wyse 60 dumb terminals on a SCO OpenServer system so I thought I'd just replace them with PC's running Mandrake Linux. I need to connect to the SCO box via one of the PC's serial ports. What do I need to do to get the PC to see the SCO box?

    Slow tape restore

    I'm restoring a couple of directories from a 24Gb DSS tape, and it's taking all day to read the tape. It's an HP Shurestore 40 SCSI tape on an Adaptec 2940 controller on an OpenServer 5.0.2 Enterprise server. The server has 64Mb of RAM and is running at 200Mhz. I'm also using two Seagate hard...

    Restoring from tape w/ cpio??

    I'm attempting to restore a couple of directories to a server from a tape created on another system. So far I have been able to create a file listing all of the files on the tape so I know I am reading the tape OK. Now I'm trying to restore only the files that I need and it's not doing it. I'm...

    Swapping removable HD's between servers

    I have 2 OpenServer 5.0.5 servers, each with identical removable SCSI hard drives. One machine had been set up by someone else, the second one I set up. They each will mount their respective file systems just fine. However, I've found that I cannot mount the hard drive from one machine on the...
