There's also a new display in Gkrellm 'sit0', which is new to me. Everything is working, but can anyone explain the change ? Also, I have PPP installed (2.4.5-r3): do I still need this with DHCP ? -- I suspect it's left over from pre-router days. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
