The problem is with the webmin config file as it has the wrong host name. Changing this to just localhost fixed the login problem. It has been some time since I've worked with lilo so I'll have to RTFM and find the correct syntax for adding the "notail" option since this is runing the reiserfs file system. Other than that everything else seems to just work. Ted Ozolins (VE7TVO) Westbank, B.
