My parallel zip worked just fine with LM 8.0. Unfortunatley I had to

unfortunately because LM 8.1 has lots of funny stuff (for instance, ps2

If you have eth0 set up to use DHCP to obtain it's IP from say your ISP,
then the client will also update resolv.conf to reflect what the server
is telling it to use for DNS resolution.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-post handles the actual
updates...
If you define the variable "PEERDNS"

Ed Tharp gave me lots of assistance over on the newbie list with getting some

Nope!
The best thing for you to do is to enable the "missing" modules in
Linuxconf and go into it's "Services" section under CONTROL.
You can then enable daemons there and it tends to create the correct
xinetd entries for you.
