Doesn't sound like the same problem... AFAIK, nobody messed with the network (I'm the only person who's not afraid of the thing). Only the one machine disappeared, and it came back without any operator intervention. It hasn't happened again, so I'm not too worried about it. It always bugs me, though, when I come across a problem I can't figure. :-/ ===================================================================== | Steve Reid - SysAdmin & Pres, EDM Web (http://www.edmweb.com/) | | Email: steve@edmweb.com Home Page: http://www.edmweb.com/steve/ | | PGP (2048/9F317269) Fingerprint: 11C89D1CD67287E68C09EC52443F8830 | | -- Disclaimer: JMHO, YMMV, TANSTAAFL, IANAL. -- | ===================================================================:)
