The \000 is a literal null character. The DHCP server on my network is a W2K server as well, so it would appear to be the culprit. And, come to think of it, the Woody installer uses dhcp-client I believe. And I know there has been a long discussion over pump vs dhcp-client because dhcp-client is more standards compliant while pump works better with MS DHCP servers. -Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
