ssh reverse tunnel
by Rick Bilonick
I re-installed Fedora 8 and now I can get a reverse ssh tunnel (from
server to home) by typing on the server:
> ssh -R 2022:server.ip:22 home(a)home.ip
Then when at the home computer, I type:
> ssh -p 2022 server@localhost
This works fine. The only problem is the connection always times out
even though I've changed the sshd_config files on both machines to keep
it alive. I've restarted the sshd daemon also. Not sure why the
connection keeps closing.

Sagem Fast 800 E3 usb modem and Fedora 8
by Frank Cox
My wife is currently visiting her family in Mauritius, and has taken her laptop
along with her. Her laptop runs Fedora 8 and I have set up network manager on
it so it will automatically grab any available Internet connection without any
further action required on her part. This works fine here, both with a
wireless and a wired connection. Switch on, blammo! Connection established,
done deal.
However, she advises me that the connection at her mother's house uses a Sagem
Fast 800 E3 modem that has only a usb connection, and when she plugs it into a
usb port on her laptop nothing happens. (On the actual modem, the word Fast is
written as F@st.)
A bit of Google searching tells me that this modem is based on the Eagle
chipset (whatever that is) and that there are apparently Linux drivers available
for this thing, somewhere. Making things more interesting, it appears that
this Sagem is a French outfit, and most of the documentation that I can find is
written in French.
So....
Is there an easy way to make this modem work with Fedora 8? My wife is by no
means a "techie"; she just uses whatever software I provide for her, and there
is no way in the world that she will be able to compile a kernel module on her
own, or anything like that.
"yum search sagem" gives me no results, and "yum search eagle" gives me nothing
relevant. I'm pretty sure I could call her on the phone and talk her through a
"yum install whatever" and reboot, but I have no idea what I should tell her to
install.
I hate to have to tell her that she hauled her laptop all the way from here to
Mauritius for nothing, but I'm starting to think that's the situation.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Help with notebook wi-fi
by Robert O. Kahl
I'm unable to get wifi working on my Presario Laptop (H-P) Model
V6719NR. Any Help would be appreciated.
The system is setup with Fedora 8/KDE, dual boot with Vista The
start-up error message shows:
Bringing up interface for wlan0. Error for wireless request "Set Mode"
(8B06)
SET failed on device wlan0; invalid argument
Determining IP info for wlan0... [FAILED]
The boot sequence stops and then resumes after exactly 60 seconds!
The KDE Network Device Manager shows it recognizes the Atheros chipset,
but I can't "Activate" it.
A dmesg dump shows:
ath5k phy0: Atheros 2425 chip found (MAC: 0xe2, PHY: 0x70
(Incidentally, it works OK in Vista. Their Device Manager shows the
chip is an Atheros AR007)
Any advice on how to correct the "invalid argument" and to proceed would
be greately appreciated.

Yumex cleaned my system..... How do I contact yum-team?
by DB
Good evening (at least it is in Austria!)
I'm new to Linux & Fedora, last messed with Unix in about '89...
I've (eventually) installed F9, with a selection of odds & ends, and
found that yumex SEEMED to be a better way of updating & installing than
the Gnome Add/Remove Software. My problem comes when I try to remove
"something" (e.g. CUPS) when yumex seems to consider every application
that uses or links to CUPS as being a dependency. In my naive, trusting
way (!), I assumed the 223 listed dependencies were sort of .dlls which
CUPS had added to everything that needed to print. Oh, how wrong can
you be????? 223 deleted apps later & I had a bare bones system - even
yumex was gone! & most of Gnome!
SO, after a day & half fiddling, I got back to a working system again
(95%). I posted the situation on FedoraForum & was advised to bring it
to the attention of "Them what looks after Yum", but I can't find out
how to contact the yum team.
Any suggestions on how one contacts the yum team???
Thanks

gnome-system-monitor applet -- can't see or or change the views
by Bill Case
Hi;
In F9 I find that all the view options of gnome-system-monitor applet
other than Memory Maps and Open Files are greyed out -- and those do
nothing discernible. I can no longer choose All processes, Active
processes or My processes.
The processes reflected in the main window are only the processes of the
logged in (or effective) user. I now have to sudo gnome-system-monitor
to see root processes etc.
I leave gnome-system-monitor on all the time. I have it running on the
upper left corner of my top panel. A quick glance up tells me what is
going on and using the applet is faster than ]$ ps -aux for just a
checking the existence of a process.
Is this restriction to user processes only, deliberate, or is there
something I have to configure, or is it a bug?
