| Bridging
mini-Howto |
This
document describes how to setup an ethernet bridge. What is an
ethernet bridge? An ethernet bridge is a device that controls
data packets within a subnet in an attempt to cut down the amount
of traffic. A bridge is usually placed between two separate groups
of computers that talk within themselves, but not so much with
the computers in the other group. A good example of this is to
consider a cluster of Macintoshes and a cluster of unix machines.
Both of these groups of machines tend to be quite chatty amongst
themselves, and the traffic they produce on the network causes
collisions for the other machines who are trying to speak to one
another. A bridge would be placed between these groups of computers.
The job of the bridge is then to examine the destination of the
data packets one at a time and decide whether or not to pass the
packets to the other side of the ethernet segment. The result
is a faster, quieter network with less collisions. Author(s):

Most
Linux distributions have a 'ls' command for listing
the contents of a directory that can visually enhance their output
by using different colours, but configuring this to taste may
not be a trivial task. This document explains the various aspects
and approaches of altering the setup by configuring existing software,
plus locations of alternative software usually not included with
Slackware or RedHat, which may be used on most versions of Unix.

| Database-SQL-RDBMS
HOW-TO document for Linux (PostgreSQL Object Relational Database
System) |
This
document is a "practical guide" to very quickly setup
a SQL Database engine and front end tools on a Unix system. It
also discusses the International standard language ANSI/ISO SQL
and reviews the merits/advantages of the SQL database engine developed
by the world-wide internet in an "open development"
environment. It is about HOW-TO setup a next generation Object
Relational SQL Database "PostgreSQL" on Unix system
which can be used as a Application Database Server or as a Web
Database Server. PostgreSQL implements a subset of International
ISO/ANSI SQL standards of years 1998,92,89. This document also
gives information on the database interface programs like Front
End GUIs, RAD tools (Rapid Application Development), ODBC, JDBC
drivers, "C", "C++", Java, Perl programming
interfaces and Web Database Tools. Information given here applies
to all Unix platforms and to all other SQL databases. It will
be very useful for people who are new to Databases, SQL language
and PostgreSQL. This document also has SQL tutorial, SQL syntax
which would be very helpful for beginners. Experienced people
will find this document as a useful reference guide. For students,
the information given here will enable them to get the source
code for PostgreSQL relational database system, from which they
can learn as to how a RDBMS SQL database engine is created. Author(s):

| Ftape-HOWTO |
This
HOWTO discusses essential do's and dont's for the ftape
floppy tape driver under Linux. It focusses on the newest version
which is ftape-4.02 at the time of this writing.
This HOWTO is to be intended as first step help and source of
information. The ftape driver interfaces to QIC-40,
QIC-80, QIC-3010 and QIC-3020 compatible drives, and to the Iomega
Ditto 2GB and Ditto Max drives. The QIC-3010 and QIC-3020 standards
are also known as `Travan' (TR-2 and TR-3). These drives connect
via the floppy disk controller (FDC) which may be either an internal
FDC or inside of certain parallel port floppy tape drives. Please
refer to the section Supported
drives for further information. ftape does not
cover SCSI or QIC-02 tape drives. DAT tape drives usually (always?)
connect to a SCSI controller. This is but one of the Linux HOWTO
documents. You can get an index of the HOWTOs from the Linux
HOWTO index, while the real HOWTO's can be fetched (using
ftp) from sunsite.unc.edu:pub/Linux/doc/HOWTO

IR HOWTO |
An
introduction to Linux and infrared devices and how to use the
software provided by the Linux/IrDA project. This package uses
IrDA(TM) compliant standards. IrDA(TM) is an industrial standard
for infrared wireless communication, and most laptops made after
January 1996 are equipped with an IrDA(TM) compliant infrared
transceiver. Infrared ports let you communicate with printers,
modems, fax machines, LANs, and other laptops. Speed ranges from
2400bps to 4Mbps. The Linux/IrDA stack supports IrLAP, IrLMP,
IrIAS, IrIAP, IrLPT, IrCOMM, IrOBEX, and IrLAN. Several of the
protocols are implemented as both clients and servers. There is
also support for multiple IrLAP connections, via several IrDA(TM)
devices at once. The Linux/IrDA project started at the end of
1997 and its status is still experimental, so please don't expect
every feature working straight. AFAIK Linux/IrDA is the _only_
open source IrDA implementation currently available. Remote Control
(RC) via infrared is not the aim of the project, though partly
treated in this HOWTO. Author(s): Werner Heuser, < wehe@snafu.de > |

Remote-Boot mini-HOWTO: Configuring Remote-Boot Workstations with
Red-Hat Linux, DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows 95 and Windows NT |
This
document describes how to set up a very robust and secure server-based
configuration for a cluster of PCs, allowing each client to choose
at boot-time which operating system to run. The key of this configuration
is a bootprom based program, which let the user choose at boot
time one of several boot images. This configuration is applicable
using InCom TCP/IP Bootprom (add-on for most network cards) or
any PXE-compliant Boot ROM (ready-to-use in most recent PC with
built-in network cards). The most up-to-date version of this document,
with hypertext links to downloadable software and other related
materials, can be found at the address http://cuiwww.unige.ch/info/pc/remote-boot/howto.html.
Linuxdoc-SGML,
DVI and PostScript
versions are available in the same directory. If you are interested
in getting info on further developpments, send an E-mail to David.Clerc@cui.unige.ch.

an active area of research and, at the time of writing, many of

Switch makes a bbs node and many features, it was expected that
the Linux ax25-utils would have a similar capability. This was
not the case. Help came from John Ackerman, N8UR who put a message
on the Linux-Ham SIG that he had done the BBS node and the info
was on his web site! When the information was tried it didn't
work properly but much was learned about the technique. Help from
Tomi Manninen, OH2BNS did the trick. Nodes for the BBS and the

| Software-RAID
HOWTO |
RAID
stands for ''Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks'', and is meant
to be a way of creating a fast and reliable disk-drive subsystem
out of individual disks. RAID can guard against disk failure,
and can also improve performance over that of a single disk drive.
This document is a tutorial/HOWTO/FAQ for users of the Linux MD
kernel extension, the associated tools, and their use. The MD
extension implements RAID-0 (striping), RAID-1 (mirroring), RAID-4
and RAID-5 in software. That is, with MD, no special hardware
or disk controllers are required to get many of the benefits of
RAID. Author(s): Linas Vepstas, linas@linas.org |

| SRM
Firmware Howto |
This
document describes how to boot Linux/Alpha using the SRM firmware,
which is the firmware normally used to boot DEC Unix. Generally,
it is preferable to use MILO instead of aboot since MILO is perfectly

for a particular system and MILO does not presently have the ability
to boot over the network. In either case, using the SRM console
may be the right solution. Author(s): David Mosberger |
