I think there is a problem with the "netscape" startup script.
Please see the for loop around line 277.
It contains a syntax error, which is easy to fix.
But sourcing all those files it wants to doesn't make any sence.
It's trying to source directories and a README file.
I will send you a patch as soon as my linux host is back.
Stupid me I removed the /etc/default? directory. Send me a tar ball of
that directory so I can put it back you. I will give you my netscape patch.
-Thanks
-Tim.
