I completely reinstalled (third LM8 install) and I'm right back where I

ifconfig
netstat -rn
cat /etc/sysconfig/network

There are three types of lies...
lies ("You'll never need more than 64K"),
damn lies ("Windows is more stable than Linux"), and
press releases ("It will be released as scheduled").
