Grrrrrrrrr! Wonderful. That seemed to work just fine, thanks. Cole came
up with that solution a little earlier, but didn't mention why it
worked.
So, what's this 'ip' command? mwl mentioned something about it
replacing all the other tradition Unix-type networking commands like
ifconfig, netstat, etc.
Anyone have a definitive explanation as to what 'ip' is, and, more
importantly, WHERE IT'S DOCUMENTED!!!!! :)
Thanks,
