Or has > your system been like this since you moved to Debian? the problems started when i disabled portmapper. i don't know this for sure, but i am extrapolating backwards. because it did work at one point in time, and it depends on xfs/portmapper, and i did disable both shortly after the install... question the to you debians: how do i tell X/xfs to use IPC and not the IP stack? martin [greetings from the heart of the sun]# echo madduck@!#:1:s@\@@@.net -- "we should have a volleyballocracy. we elect a six-pack of presidents. each one serves until they screw up, at which point they rotate." -- dennis miller ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements-http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug
