Ed, Thanks for the info. I do not have IPX or Appletalk. I don't know what the pf-3 is but I went ahead and commented all three of them out. All I have is TCP/IP via a dial-up account from my ISP. I do have slip installed so I can use diald. But really don't know what else to do. I really didn't compile the kernel, as just downloaded the 2.0.35 image and that is why I am probably getting that error message. Thanks again for the help. Mike Acklin
