Well you nailed it.  My DNS server was still set to my
old one.  Once I changed that it let me in right away
via ssh.  And netstat -a works fine too (again). 
Thnx.

The vi problem still happens.  I tried vi -r after it
booted and it recovered snort.conf, but on reboot it
hangs again.  This is really weird cause Snort still
works fine....
