Stupid me! I was putting MacTCP in the Extensions folder! How silly to believe 
all that nonsense about how inits and drivers go in there now rather than in the
system folder. Well, at least the MacTCP drivers get it right. (:-))


Incidentally, I don't bother aliasing things into the Control Panels folder. 
They have no effect there--I put an alias for the Extensions folder in the Apple
menu and open _that_ up when I want to adjust things. Only Apple's original CPs
remain in the Control Panels folder.
