Hi Folks,

I am sending this again as it doesn't seem to have reached the list.

Not when I type: ifconfig

There is a listing when I type: ifconfig -a
but there is no address given.

Lo Link encap:Local Loopback
LOOPBACK MTU:3925 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0

Is this what is broken ?

Regards,
Ron
