I installed Mandrake using the recommended option, and basically went with
the defaults.It all worked ok, but i couldnt telnet into the unix box from
anywhere on the network.

A client of mine told me to try re-installing it as a SERVER option, and
that this would help. Now that i have done this, I dont get X up when I
boot. Rather than the login window with a penguin, i get a plain white box
with username and password. If i log on, I get two console windows come up.
Thats it, no icons, taskbar, menus, clock, just two console windows. I cant
use CTL ESC to change tasks.

Any Ideas ?

I thought I told it to reboot into X when it loads, and have indeed tried to
reinstall it once more with the same results.

Olly
