Hello there,

    maybe you can help -- I didn't expect these problems when upgrading to
    1.3.1. the upgrade itself went smoothly but now I'm unable to use any of
    my networking interfaces:

    The network devices (eth0 and lo0) are set up correctly, I can do a ping
    but all other services like telnet/ rlogin and ftp return a "connection
    refused error" after a timeout.

    The netdevices look as they should:
      # ifconfig
      lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
                inet addr:127.0.0.1  Bcast:127.255.255.255  Mask:255.0.0.0
                UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3584  Metric:1
                RX packets:59351 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
                TX packets:59351 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

      eth0      Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:C0:56:5F:A4
                inet addr:193.96.166.51  Bcast:193.96.166.255  
Mask:255.255.255.0
                UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
                RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
                TX packets:0 errors:31 dropped:0 overruns:0
                Interrupt:10 Base address:0x250 Memory:d0000-d4000 


    # route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
193.96.166.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        1 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        2 lo

    The Gateway addresses sound quite strange to me. Maybe this causes the
    problem?

    I'm starting the network services with a slightly modified version of the
    standard network script:

      # Configure the loopback device.
      ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
      route add -net 127.0.0.0 dev lo

      # Configure the ethernet device or start SLIP/PPP below.
      IPADDR="193.96.166.51"
      NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
      NETWORK="193.96.166.0"
      BROADCAST="193.96.166.255"
      GATEWAY=""

      /sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} netmask ${NETMASK} broadcast ${BROADCAST}
      /sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK}
      [ ! -z "$GATEWAY" ] && /sbin/route add default gw ${GATEWAY} 

    Having spend over a day with upgrading I'm frustrated and would appreciate
    any help. BTW: The script worked with no probs and on the same hardware
    with 1.2.x debian.

    It seems to be no library or configuration problem on the rlogin's side,
    cause when I'm connected to my ISP all services work.

            Thanks -- Peter
