Hi all, I just wanted to write to say I was able to install a new hard drive and am now back up to speed with a new Debian install. I have the following questions: 1) When Linux starts, it goes directly into Window Maker (or, if I exit Window Maker I go directly into TWM). I tried finding and editing the .xsession file using Midnight Commander but with no success. Am I looking in the wrong place? Are there other ways around this? 2) The network setting issues from last time are still present. While I know that Marcia, Mike and others had proposed some solutions, my steps toward a resolution are a incremental at this point. I was able to send the results of netstat to a text file but was unable to copy the text file to a dos formatted floppy. Basically Netstat told me that the destination was 192.168.1.0 and the gateway was 0.0.0.0. This does not seem quite right. I am using static IP addresses on my network, as opposed to DHCP. Thanks for your advice. I'll keep trying. John T. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo! Mail AddressGuard http://antispam.yahoo.com/whatsnewfree
