Yeah after a few minute(maybe five at the most) the system boots fine. I did recently change my ip on the bow so maybe I missed something for the DNS name server thats casue it to hang now. I do notice that when I send or receive mail on it its slow also. Oh yeah this box is a name server and mail server. I will have to look into that more.. Thanks

Boot single user and attempt to start the daemon in debug mode from the command line. man syslogd for more info. Startup hangs are very often DNS resolution timeouts. What happens if you give your system five or ten minutes to boot, does the hang clear? -- Karsten M.
