I fount that one too. 4.1 needs a file in /etc called protocols containing the following stuff: udp 17 UDP # user datagram protocol pup 12 PUP # PARC universal packet protocol tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol ggp 3 GGP # gateway-gateway protocol igmp 2 IGMP # internet group multicast protocol icmp 1 ICMP # internet control message protocol ip 0 IP # internet protocol, pseudo protocol number Now, why in EARTH put that in a file? IS sun afraid that the protocol numbers are about to change.....???????? (I found this by running "etherfind -r" during the boot and seeing a zillion lookups for protocols....) -- Gregory Bond, Burdett Buckeridge & Young Ltd, Melbourne, Australia Internet: gnb@melba.bby.oz.au non-MX: gnb%melba.bby.oz@uunet.uu.net Uucp: {uunet,pyramid,ubc-cs,ukc,mcvax,prlb2,nttlab...}!munnari!melba.bby.oz!gnb
