In the old RedHat  days, any version numbered with '.0' was to be avoided like the plague.  <g> Nothing seemed to work out of the box until version number  '.2' . Owell... I'm BAAACK on the windoz machine, purchasing a router  and returning the hub as suggested.

This reminds me; I recently ran NetworkManager to see if it would be any
use to me (my wireless network uses WPA and my card needs iwpriv
commands for it, so at the minute I use a hack in ifup-wireless).  It
did something funny which meant I had to point resolv.conf at my router
to get DNS working again, does anyone know what resolv.conf is
'normally' (when just using if-up and if-down)?
