Yep. That was it. I took a half-glance at it once right when I started, and thought everything was OK... I forgot that I had cracked the case on this box and added a new PCI card since last time I editted the free IRQs in the /etc/pccard.conf. I fixed up the free IRQ list, restarted pccardd(8), and I was in business. Thanks for the wake up call. -- Crist J. Clark Network Security Engineer crist.clark@globalstar.com Globalstar, L.P.
