I have a Sun-2 B&W monitor that has a horizontal lock problem.
Help?? What part/board goes bad? How can I fix it?

I have tried messing with the internal controls, but at best
all I can get is an image where the right half of the image
on the screen is 'folded' over the left half....

Great. To hell the customer, we'll do it our way.

When you start making decisions and that's it (right or wrong),
customers start looking for someone who will LISTEN to them.
That's how Sun got where it is. Every computer company going
down the tubes adopted the philosophy of "that's it (right or
wrong).

I've never tried this with a SUN:  What you can do is get a pc
tower case, get a cable built at a local cable builder, install
the drives into the case, and plug a cable from the SUN to the case.

I bought a case with 230 watt power supply from a local computer
repair depot for $100, had a custom cable made for $30, and
put 4 drives in for my Macintosh, 2 full height WREN-IV, 2
half height 3-1/2" drives.  One full height is in the 1-1/2
height drive bay, mounted with screws, and one is down in the
body, where mother boards normally go.  I had to prop it up
so I could get a screw in through a mounting hole, but it's
secured. I still have room for one more 3-1/2" drive, and
hopefully soon an internal CDROM.

On the SUN the internal drive is at SCSI address 3, you can
add 3 more drives to them at addresses 0, 1 and 2 without having
to renumber any other devices.  You can have up to 7 hard disks
on one SUN through modifying the kernel.  You do this by
commenting out the 2 tapes and 1 CDROM on SCSI bus 0 (in your
kernel config file), taking 3 disks (sd4,sd5, & sd6) from 
SCSI bus 1, and modifying them to be on bus 0.

Depending on the cable you have (or get) to connect this box to
your SUN, you will want the cable builder to put either a DB50
or Mini-50 connector on one end of a 50 wire flat ribbon cable,
with SCSI header blocks every 8-12 inches on the cable, starting
about 12-18 inches from the outside connector. Install terminator
resistor packs on the last device on this cable, and daisy chain
the box at the end, after any other devices in the chain.  Including
the length of the internal cable (the one you have built) the
entire length of cable run should be less than 20 feet.

Yes, just buy one SIMM. But the SIMMs are the new DSIMM packs, which are
larger than the ones used in, say, a SPARCstation 1+. You must also
populate the slots in a particular order. The order is documented in the
little booklet which comes with the DSIMM (at least, the Sun labeled
DSIMMs).

Make sure you ask for SS10 DSIMMs when you order.

If you need more detailed instructions, email me.

Having seen several SPARC10 Clones running Solaris2.1 (Beta) at the recent

the self same OS. 

But then again, perhaps that's why Sun didn't show up for their own

Currently - No.  But, there is a standard being defined that, if
implemented, will allow you to do exactly this...

The standard (draft) is called ECMA 167.  I have a copy as at july this
year.  Basically it is a portable filesystem for WORM/CD-ROM/MO drives.

When (if) the filesystem becomes available on all the platforms you want
to use then it'll be the choice.  Up until then, no, you can't easily do
what you want 

Also, I'd think twice about using the MO drive as a home drive. It's slow,
like really slow, to use. Well, maybe not that slow, but I'd think
twice about using it as a heavily used filesystem.

By default, NFS servers translate client uid 0 (root) to 65534 (nobody),
since many sites allow users to become root on their workstation but don't
want them to have access to the server's critical files.  You can change
this using the "-root=<machine>" or "-anon=<uid>" options in /etc/exports
on the server.

Well, I would also check the inode, and device numbers before relying
on $PWD. I have seen $PWD get out of sync on occasion.

Also, if you run the AMD automounter, you can just query the
automounter and use the info from the automounter to construct the
logical directory path. It really works quite well.

Organization: Prime Computer, Inc.
Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1992 20:44:53 GMT

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this but I have recently aquired a version
of PC-NFS version 3.0 (and also the upgrade package to 3.1).  Now I know that 
these version are very old but I wanted to know if they should still work with
MS-DOS 5.0 and SunOS 4.1.1.  

The problem that I am having is that I don't seem to be able to read or write
files on an NFS mounted disk.  I can LS (and DIR) fine but if I try a 
"copy c:\autoexec.bat e:\" I get the ol' "Drive not ready.  Abort, Retry, Fail"
message.  When I select fail I receive and INT 24 error.  I also get the same
thing when I try TYPEing a file.  Oddly enough, I can use redirection to create 
a file.  In otherwords, dir c:\*.* > e:\foobarhead actually creates the
file (although I can't determine its contents!)

This is not a permission problem.  The directory that I'm mounting has a mode
of 777.  I have also, built, installed and have been authenticated by rpc.pcnfsd.

Am I doing something wrong?  Does PC-NFS 3.0 work with MS-DOS 5.0 and SunOS
4.1.1.  Has anyone got this working (or should I say ... STILL working)?  

Thanks in advance,

The only other help I can offer is to grep for the old hostname in /etc/* and

Okay, I am trying to do some major renovations of the site we have at my
high school, and I need to have some questions answered.  I'm pretty much
still a newbie (and 17 years old), and I am asking for anyone who can help
me.  This is part of a NASA project which is finding how k-12 students and
teachers can work with the resources on the Internet.  If anyone has some
extra time to hear some of my questions out, I appreciate telling me so.
Thanks in advance, and I would appreciate my replies via e-mail.

1) Any good ftp sites I can go to find scripts to restrict commands for a
user (say, like they can use mail only, and nothing else), checking
passwords during a change (so a non-alphanumeric character is between a
6-8 character password), adding user accounts, etc?  Mailing them is fine
too.

2)  Any ftp sites on great Unix utilites which would take the level of
expertise needed to bypass the RTFM messages I have to send?  Say, like
instead of mail, I could replace it with elm, but I don't know any good
sites to start looking.

3)  Our talk seems to be outdated.  We're running a Sun 3/60 with SunOS
4.1.1 I think, and many people can page me for chatting, but we have
different protocols, it says.  I heard there's an ntalk out there, and how
can I obtain this?

4)  I would like to add a hard drive to the system, as well as a modem. 
(We currently access it over the school network or dial into an auxillary
site to telnet over).  However, when we first received this computer, it
was fairly outdated and crippled (took 2 months to fix mail/readnews,
etc.), and I believe we don't have system configuration files either.  I
also hear you can dump your sysconfig out of the kernel, so I think that's
the easiest.  And do I need to reconfig this and recompile the kernel, or
is it as simple as creating a device file and editing a gettytab or
something?

5)  I would like to know if there is an updated way to find addresses. 
Currently we have whois setup as an ARPA address, where can I go to revise
this?

Again, thanks in advance.  It seems taking an Introductory Unix SysAdmin
course didn't help much, eh?

I finally figured out a way to make the /etc/utmp file unwritable by
ordinary users and still have shelltool and cmdtool operate normally.
I built something called signinsh.  Here's an excerpt from my README file:

>Signinsh is a solution to this problem, at least until Sun fixes
>shelltool and cmdtool.  /etc/utmp must be made writable by a group,
>such as group tty, and signinsh must run setgid to the same group.
>Then, for example, when cmdtool is started with signinsh as its
>argument, signinsh will write an entry for the pseudo-tty in /etc/utmp,
>then reset its gid, and start a shell.  It then waits until the shell

If anyone else is interested in this, it's available by anonymous ftp
from ftp.cc.umanitoba.ca, in the sun-fixes directory.

to come from the router by hand, hoping routed would then tell the other workstations
about those nifty routes via RIP.  It didn't.

I thought routed -s is supposed to:
"Force routed to supply routing information  whether  it
          is acting as an internetwork router or not."
to cut and paste straight from the man page.

Any clues as to why it didn't?

Thanks in advance,
Mike Cantu
