Jordan, speaking at this part of the installation, it would be nice to either pre-allocate the netmask field with the proper default netmask (similar to the `domain') or omit the `netmask' keyword from the ifconfig command line if no netmask has been provided. Otherwise, ifconfig will barf about a missing parameter to the `netmask' keyword... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
