Well, I restored a backup of my /etc/ directory and now things appear to work again (not sure about bash, but the rest works like a charm). Going to stick to csh and try and make a smarter buildworld/system sync checking script because I think that the root of all the problems was the fact that the sources may have been cvsup'ed while I was building world originally, hence the makefile and quite a few things may have changed during the build. Thanks again for the help! -Garrett
