Thanks, I had been looking all over the mailing list and gerneally getting nowhere. unfortunately I now have a rather larger problem. I can't ping or telnet to myself by the IP address. I can ping localhost fine, but not my IP (206.155.61.1XX). I have tried flushing ipfw and making sure it is not blocking anything, but I have no idea what to try next. And suggestions would help greatly. Thanks again for the help!
