I think you misunderstand me. The XP-SP2 is on a non-Linux machine, and I need to know how to make it work like -SP1. It seems to have insulated all normal functions from the user, and I only found the Command screen by accident. I need to know how to put the net interface in--it seems to think we still use modems--and on, and on. What a piece of crap! But I need it. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
