Sendmail spontaneously broke itself (what else is new?).  Here's the
setup, we have a mail server (imladris) to which the mail clients are
forwarding mail.  I do not use NeXT's netinfo mailhost junk.  I just
have a relay mailer setup in the clients sendmail.cf.

Anyway, mail is forwaded via the ether mailer to imladris where it is
spooled up to go out via uucp.

The problem that has spontaneously occurred is that sendmail on
imladris is getting upset that there is no ! in the Return-Path line:

Well, it would have helped if you indicated your command line for tarring.
I have the same drive, and I can tar, no problems at all, with this comman
line syntax (from root /):

tar -xvf /dev/rst0 *

I usually use gnutar with this syntax:

gnutar -xvpf /dev/rst0 *

Give it a try.  My current DAT scsi id is "6"

MMM.... personally, we call a bunch of things from rc.local under 3.0
with absolutely no problems:

/usr/etc/accton is a mach executable, as is mthreads, and mthreads run
with a '-d' is a daemon program which runs without any problems.

So, whatever your problem is, I somehow doubt it is a flaw in rc.local
itself.

If you are at the console, try Cmd-~ then hit the power key.  It

This does not seem necessary, since the swapfile will grow
automatically. You will probably have very little swapping (except if
you use Mathematica).  You may, however, want to increase your hiwat

sense code 1a indicates parameter overrun, which presumably

Perhaps you (or the driver) is trying for a blocksize that the
drive doesn't support?

I recently had the exact same symptoms on my external 1 GB fujitsu.  They  
messages became more frequent as death neared, SO...
.. I ordered a backup disk
.. I backed up the disk to tape on a daily basis
.. and when the other disk arrived...
CLICK CLICK....DEAD

I took off the external case and gave the disk power and figured out that  
the click click sound is the disk shutting itself off. Probably some self  
protection thing, either too hot or just kerbunkled.  I did check the  
power supply and things looked normal.

I plan on putting the 5 year warranty to the test after 9 months of use.
For the record though I have 4 others in the lab that are working fine  
(for now).

So, back it up, and plan on having the disk die soon.

Actually it is possible and very easy. Here is my setup:
linde (home machine) 36.92.0.118 running Marble SLIP as client
physics (machine at Stanford U.) 36.92.0.18 running Marble SLIP as server with du0 (slip0) ip address=147.135.1.184
elrond (another machine at home which is connected to linde using ethernet) 36.92.0.19

Here are routing tables for linde:
linde> netstat -rn
Routing tables
Destination      Gateway            Flags     Refs     Use  Interface
147.135.1.184    36.92.0.118        UH          3     8913  du0

36.92.0.18       147.135.1.184      UGH         2      515  du0

36.92.0.118      127.0.0.1          UH          9    11745  lo0
default          147.135.1.184      UG          0     1400  du0
linde> 
Notice: 36.92.0.19       36.92.0.19 means that when linde wants to connect to elrond it will not use the default route to physics (147.135.1.184) but instead it will use 36.92.0.19 thu en0 (ethernet).

On both linde and physics I have the file /etc/resolv.conf contain the following
domain stanford.edu
nameserver 36.56.0.151
nameserver 36.21.0.20
nameserver 36.8.0.47
It specifies my domain and the nameservers to use. Make sure you have something like this otherwise you will not be able to connect to hosts by name rather than ip address. (you must get your own nameservers)

Now, on physics I have to use arp command. Here is the command I use in rc.local
sleep 15;arp -s linde 0:0:0f:00:9b:00 pub&
This will advertize linde to the local net.


The result is that from linde I can telnet (or connect in any other way) to/from any other Internet connected machine in the world. From linde I can also connect to elrond by simply
telnet elrond
(elrond and linde and physics are defined in NetInfo database so it does not have to find out the address of elrond. If it did try to find out the address of elrond it would not get 36.92.0.19 from the nameserver, and it would probably get 'host unknown')
And it works!

Also the -NXHost from physics to linde works perfectly:
physics> Date -NXHost linde
This makes the Date application pop up on linde and lets me use it. (It is however slow...)

Yes, it does!
I found that I can't have both: a local en0 ethernet interface AND -NXHost  
over SLIP. Only either or. Someone once told me that is because Mach routes  
the -NXHost packets always to the ethernet interface. I don't understand what  
is going on, just my experience says: 
EITHER en0 OR -NXHost over SLIP, but not both.

I would really like to hear if s.o. actually succeeded to do both at the same  
time: use -NXHost over SLIP and also use, say telnet, over the ethernet (en0)  
interface of the same machine.

Subject: Lost NeXT printer in 3.0 upgrade - how to get it back?
Date: 10 Jan 93 01:59:20 GMT
Organization: Optilink Corporation, Petaluma, CA

[I am writing this on behalf of someone with a machine up in the outer
redwood boondocks.]

After upgrading from 2.x (exact release unknown - somebody else's machine, and
he ran the upgrade without noting the old release) to 3.0, the NeXT laser
printer no longer functions.

Powering the printer down and up with /usr/etc/nppower works, so there
doesn't appear to be a physical problem.

PrintManager stubbornly refuses to allow a NeXT printer to be added - the
printer names list has an entry for "NeXT 400 dpi Level II Printer", but
it is grayed out, and none of other little menu items let me select the
Printer port.

I did "nidump printcap .", and found two entries: one for "Local Printer",
and one for "Local_Printer".

I couldn't get rid of "Local Printer" with niload, so I got into NetInfoManager
and deleted both printer entries, in hopes that PrintManager would let me
start fresh, or would automatically build an entry for the NeXT printer.

No such luck.

I built a printcap entry by hand from the residue of the original nidump,
and niload'ed it.  It doesn't work, and an attempt to do Modify in PrintManager
complains that it can't understand the printer description.

Has anyone else seen loss of the NeXT printer after 3.0 upgrade?

If you have a known good printcap entry which I can niload, or a set of
specific items to verify through NetInfoManager, and a list of any other
files which need to be in place (any copies or links under /usr/lib/NextPrinter
or wherever) to make the NeXT printer work under 3.0, or any other applicable
rituals, I would very much appreciate hearing.

Shame on NeXT for not providing any comprehensive documentation explaining
the increasingly intricate printer world in 3.0.  If something breaks, it
seems impossible to diagnose and impossible to fix.

John,

If you compiled the textual client, then you can run it from the command
line, if you have the NeXT graphical client, then it only runs from the
graphical shell.

If you have the text client and it continues not to run, make sure that
the path to the text client is in either your .cshrc or .login PATH
variable.  Eg, if gopher is in /LocalApps/gopher, and /LocalApps isn't
part of your path, then to run from the command line, you will need to
type : /LocalApps/gopher or add /LocalApps to your default search path.

How do I do a fsck in a NeXT station Turbo running NS 2.2 ?
fsck is there, all right, but how do I unmount the root
filesystem ??
