 | A neighbour allows me use of his adsl line (we are physically
 | networked together to share files etc).
 | 
 | I've recently put another IDE hard-drive in this box (using
 | a caddy so my disks are interchangeable) and installed a 
 | minimal Woody in each of two separate partitions.
 | The first installation I upgraded to a 'full blown'
 | Woody having elected to install by 'http' and used the adsl
 | line without difficulty. The second installation I upgraded
 | to Sarge again without difficulty and using the adsl line.
 | The kernels used were precompiled ones (2.2.20 on one and
 | 2.4.18-bf2.4 on the other.
 | 
 | Now, I have compiled 2.4.24 kernels on both (I'm looking at
 | 2.6.2 for Sarge in due course!), but I cannot use the adsl
 | for 'apt-get' on either when I boot into 2.4.24. The dhcp
 | server is running on the neighbour's box whenever it is 'up'. 
 | 
 | 'route -vnee' and 'ifconfig' show the dhcp server has not
 | allocated an IP addess etc.
 | 
 | I can see no obvious differences in the kernel .config files 
 | (other than ones I understand and which are mainly the reason
 | I compiled new kernels.
 | 
 | I have a dialup modem attached to a separate firewall which
 | I can use if and when necessary, and configuration of these
 | gives me no problem.
 | 
 | What do I need to do so that I can use the adsl line with
 | newly compiled kernels? 
 | 
 | Grateful for any assistance.Regards,John.

Because the other site uses a broken autoresponder that uses the From: 
address and not the envelope sender, and this mailbox just happened to be 
full when you sent your message.

I've received a few of these myself (from this address, I believe).

As have I. I've mailed [EMAIL PROTECTED] to tell them it's broken, but
it seems my message fell on deaf ears.
