This isn't strictly Linux, but I thought people might be interested in it. There is an Apache event planned for: Conference: October 23-25 2000 Exhibition: October 24-25 2000 Olympia Conference Centre London, UK It is going to cover a load of stuff (over 60 sessions) including: Security & Ecommerce Securing Apache on Unix and Windows Java, PHP, Perl, TCL, Python, XML, XSL Performance, load balancing and case studies Apache installation, compilation, configuration scripting languages and dynamic content (mod_perl, mod_php, mod_jserv, ASP) Tips for writing Apache modules More information is supposed to be available at http://www.apachecon.com/2000/EU/, but the piece of paper I have in front of me has more information on it currently. Oh well. Ashley Dr. Ashley T.

PPP: ping/dns OK but no FTP/telnet...
by Neil Sedger 28 May '00

28 May '00

RE this problem (hmm about an eon ago due to a broken modem...) I found the solution on the RHA support web forum. Go to /etc/ppp/options and add novj novjccomp in there. Works fine now. Currently using linuxconf, with a masq 'gateway' working. Next step is using wvdial (so it redials when busy) and then dial-on-demand. Nice.

I intended to mention it a while back, but I created a channel on the OpenProjects network for ALUG, if anyone feels like using that.. The server is either: irc.openprojects.net or irc.linux.com (same network) Channel: #ALUG My job basically entails sitting on IRC all day, so if nothing else, I'll be in there ;-) Gareth.
