I have slackware 13.1 version. When I use console I connect to ftp servers via ftp but not via sftp. I cannot connect to an ftp server with mc. I think that mc uses sftp. How can I make mc use ftp instead of sftp to connect to an ftp server?

I tried to install vsftpd on my server and while the installation went fine, I can't run
Code:
restart vsftpd
As I the get error
Code:
restart: Unable to connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Though I'm able to restart the service with
sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart with a warning telling me to use the service utility. Not only that, but despite the port being open it won't allow me to log in, it just hangs, and I have local users enabled (I've used the default .conf file). Does dbus not come installed in 10.04, and if I did install it would it make a difference for restarting the service? Are there further steps needed not available in the tutorial on the Ubuntu Server Guide for 10.04 to enabling local user authentication? -edit- Figured it out, dbus wasn't installed, vsftpd is working fine now.
I install and configure the vncserver following and reading 1000papers, but all of this present the same problem; when i try to connect to my vncserver,recive this mesage: unable connect to socket: No route to host (113) The OS version is Fedora Core 14 and tigervnc-server i try different solutions including:Allow TCP connection modifing files /etc/gdm/custom.conf and /usr/share/gdm/gdm.chemas Disable SELinux removing iptables Here follow the vncserver configuration:

The ip address of the vncserver is correct because i can do ssh on it. Where or what can i do?
I am using Squeeze and all appears OK at first... I have a DHCP lease, PING to router works, apache servering fine in and outside the network, Epiphany seems to connects to default debian.org only, BUT I cannot connect to any other websites and apt will not connect to any servers. I installed once, tried to fix problem, gave up and reinstalled and still have the same problem.
I unistalled Network Manager thinking that was the problem, but still the same issue. Is there a default firewall blocking certain connections or am I missing something I'm supposed to know about? I installed some non-free firmware in the beginning of install and all worked... and I connected fine when downloading packages during install.
I have a realtek 8187b devid 8189 and tried connect to a wep encrypted connection I "borrow" frequently using iwconfig first and it wouldn't connect then I installed wicd and it says bad password. I've connected successfully using multiple other distros, openbsd, os x, and windows. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?If you need anymore info I can boot into slack and write it down or something.
View 3 Replies View RelatedProblem with my Internet connection. I can't connect to the update servers. I don't know why. It's a brand new installation, not a week old yet. I can't install the support for restricted media for example. The servers won't refresh in YaST. It tells me it can't download the repomd.xml.asc.
The other problem is that some servers on the web won't load for me either.
For example, I get most of my local news from The Toronto Star, and I can't connect to it's website at all.
I can from Windows (I dual boot) but not SUSE. I don't think its a problem limited to that one website either. I am able to connect to most websites though.

I wasnt sure where to put this, since both of my boxes are slackware i posted it here. I am having ssh issues, im going from a 64 bit slackware 13.37 to 32 slackware 13.1. Now I can connect from the 64bit box with windowsxp pro using putty, to the 32 bit slackware box, but i get an error on the slackware 64 bit which says no route to host. It is the same computer, host name is the same and router ipaddress is the same on either windows or slackware boot. It isnt a fire wall, as i had none, until a couple minutes ago, of which i still get the same error. Is there something i am required to do to set up ssh on this box. Oh just for the record, I cannot connect to the 32 bit slackware box with my macbook pro either.

I installed slackware 13.1 to my laptop.I i use my e220 HSDPA usb dongle to connect internet.I previously i used ubuntu and it auto detected and connect to internet.But i could not connect with slackware .
I tried it and i got following output
Carrier detected. Waiting for prompt.
Don't know what to do! Starting pppd and hoping for the best.
But its not connecting to internet.
When I installed Slackware it configured it by the way I was originally connecting to the internet by. Which was corded to the router. I want to just connect directly to the modem but don't know the steps to make it work correctly.
View 10 Replies View RelatedRight now I cannot ping to my default gateway. The machine also has SuSE installed on a separate partition. Networking with the same parameters runs fine in that installation.
I use a troubleshooting checklist for situations like this:
- network troubleshooting checklist
- (case of wired connection with static ip)
- make sure net cable is well plugged in on both sides. CHKD.
- make sure ifconfig eth0 details the static IP you want set and that the iface is running (this stage is quite a head start if you've got to it. It would suggest that you have rc.inet1.conf set up properly. CHKD.
- HAL checked against eth0, and it also specifies eth0 for this interface.
- no problem pinging to 127.0.0.1
- type "route" and see if your default gateway comes up. SEMI-CHK: it does come up but takes a long while .. that's bad sign. It still means your rc.inet1.conf is OK, but here's something else up.
- check /etc/resolv.conf for your nameservers .. just in case some over-zealous program has decided to overwrite it. CHKD, all OK .. I use the google nameservers 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.8.8
Despite using what I thought were decent tools of the trade, if I unplug the cable they give the same output!
I have a dual boot Linux system with Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and Slackware 12.1. I have a USB modem Huawei 1261 that I am using with Ubuntu with the usb_modeswitch package. I would like to get that working with Slackware 12.1. The usb_modeswitch seems to be working fine and also the "wvdial cdma" seems to working but Firefox can't connect to the internet.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using a Verizon/Nortel USB760 wireless modem (worker just fine in 13.0, got problems in 13.1). Using KPPP, I connect to the service, waltz around reading mail, news and LQ then disconnect and close KPPP. I let it sit for any length of time then open KPPP, connect and it can see the modem, attempts to initialize it and it just sits there - I have to unplug the modem and reconnect it to get it going again. /var/log/messages doesn't give any hints (everything looks normal I think) and nothing else does either -- the indicate light on the modem stays green and all that. I've tried ejecting it (nope) and whatever else I can thing of (which ain't much) including reviewing Changes and Hints, READMEs and all.
Is there some setting I may have missed or a USB rule or do I need to poke the thing somehow to get it going? USB-Modeswitch automagically figures out what the device is and does its settings (so there's no "conf" file any more - unless I really missed something there).
I have successfully installed Slackware though in virtualbox.I thought to learn first before falling into any pitfalls. Will do hard disk installation after learning more in virtualbox..But, I see now that I can't connect to the internet in the virtualbox... The host OS is Windows 7 and Virtualbox guest additions are installed and configured too.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI successfully installed the latest version of slackware, but much to my chagrin it does not auto-connect itself to the internet like my crunchbang does. I read a little from ch.5 of the slackware book, so I know what command to run, but I don't know what to do after running netconfig. I'm using crunchbang right now to get access to the forums, so I know my internet works with this computer. I tried to set up a DHCP connection, but that didn't do anything. So I have two questions:
1.) How do I tell if I have a Static-IP, DHCP, or Loopback connection?
2.) Can I use Crunchbang to get the information I will need, since it connects to the internet like a pro?
I recently moved out of state and don't have access to the net, however the neighbor of where I am staying is nice enough to let me leech off of her network till I get going. I know next to nothing about slackware and wireless networks since I have never had to mess with it. I have done my reading and have gotten this far.
1) wirelss card is installed and recognized, its a PCI b/g card that uses the ath5 module. The module is loaded and seems to be working.
2) I have heard wicd is easy so I installed it from /extra and it found my essid and accepted the wep password and it says connected at 45% and shows an IP.
however when I launch firefox or try to ping out nothing happens.

I recently swapped from ubuntu to slackware. It's all functioning, minus the wireless network. Decided to forgo my usual fluxbox desktop for the features in KDE until I get ready to swap back (not sure what programs I'll have to add to startup in flux yet). I'm using a toshiba satellite L305-S5957 with a Realtek 802.11b/g wireless-LAN adapter. Not sure if it's a hardware problem or if I just don't know how to connect with kde.

Everything worked fine. My computer was working too, but my internet wasn't. Since it works on the original kernel, I know that maybe it's something I was supposed to install as part of "make [variable]config" The network icon is there, but it doesn't connect automatically as 2.6.39.3 does if that helps as a part of the description.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIn fact I dont like number 13 and perhaps its the reason Ive been worried about changing slack 13 version! However, I downloaded an iso-dvd-13.1 from official website (http://www.slackware.com/getslack / torrents). It occurred a twice and I recorded it using k3b, CDBurnerXP and Poweriso. Then I changed speeds in a way of take off recording disfunctions or panics in the media ... Unfortunatelly I didnt get success to install the system so my 80G seagate sata hd is not recognized. Thereby I changed hds, cables, memory and nothing! I' m using an Asus A8V-mx motherboard (AMI BIOS, WfM 2.0, SM BIOS 2.3 and CHIPSET VIA K8M800 / VIA VT82510).In it sata hdd is on during boot loader, but after that dvd disk hugesmp.s 2.6.33-smp kernel break donw and I dont connect sata and neither go ahead a full install. I tryed :
fdisk /dev/sd*;
cfdisk (fatal error: can not open disk drive) and
# ls -l /dev/sd* returns
/bin/ls: can not access /dev/sd*. No such file or directory
I wish an easy fresh install. In this system if I use slack 12.2 version its ok.

I installed the new Slackware 13.1 64 on my laptop and I am trying to connect to the internet via a wireless network but i don't what is wrong with my configurations it just doesn't work.
I tried doing the following:
iwconfig wlan0 essid "ESSID"
iwconfig wlan0 key "Password"
iwconfig wlan0 channel NUMBER
Then i do dhcpcd -d but then no success after - i try to ping some sites, no reply, i put new dns servers in resolv.conf, still no results, i tried to ping some ips and it says network unreachable, it just doesn't work at all.
I did iwlist wlan0 scanning and it found all the wireless networks, so the adapter is not the problem, the problem here is the procedure. How to do it properly so it will work ? I can connect via ethernet by easy configuring eth0 but i have no success for wireless networks. I read everything there was on google, i searched a lot of sites, i tried a lot of different methods but NONE of it worked.
