Although, it seems to be a mute point for now. In tinkering with LILO (I also boot RH8.0 and SuSE8.0 from this machine), I hosed the boot loader. Had difficulty getting CD1's rescue mode to see the reiserfs of my 9.0 load, so I simply went back to a fresh install. (No, I didn't make a boot floppy the first time, but I did this time. Lesson learned.) Everything is back up and running again for now. I'll have to watch it as I begin retracing my steps with the firewall and updates again. Thanks for responding. Barry
