I'm pleased that you tried it and that it worked; it tells me that I've messed up something or it **would** work. Sadly, I lack the skills to figure out the knot so my solution would be the (unwelcome) option of starting from scratch. (And my cablemodem speed has plummeted in the last couple of days -- from >2Mb/sec to ~200kb/sec download.) I'll have to decide whether it's worth it... thanks, craig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
