If anyone of the following isn't right, it won't be automagic. The loopback is typically configured in /etc/network/interfaces: # The loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback This is the config file for the ifup/ifdown utilities. Typically, `ifup -a` would be called at boot time to bring the interfaces up. /etc/rcS.d/S40networking is a link to /etc/init.d/networking on my system. /etc/init.d/networking must be executeable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
