hmm, shorewall must have done something that's more persistent. Have a look at /etc/runlevels, and make sure there is no shorewall stuff left in there. Also look in /etc/conf.d/net* and make sure there is no postup functions lying around. And make sure /etc/init.d/net.eth1 is a symlink to /etc/init.d/net.lo, and then make sure net.lo hasn't been "modified" by shorewall. you could do a `emerge --noconfmem baselayout` to make extra sure. **Read the man page first. Is there a /etc/shorewall directory? Perhaps someone who has it installed could do `equery files shorewall` so you could check that it really is deleted. Well, these idea's are really stabbing in the dark, but you gotta start somewhere! HTH, -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> Workers of the world, arise!
