Michael,

  I do realize this and was reporting what I found. :-)

  Nope. Nothing on 80.

  Works.

  I changed /etc/thttpd.conf to use port 8000 instead of the default 80.
Lemme' restart thttpd and see if that fixes the problem ...

  Sigh. Something strange is going on with the http daemon. Here's what I
see:

[root at salmo ~/]# rc.d/init.d/thttpd restart
Gently shutting down thttpd: thttpd is not running         [FAILED]
Starting thttpd:                                           [  OK  ]

  The daemon _had_ been running before I shut down the box to fix the floppy
connector this past Sunday. I don't know why the start command -- which
reports "OK" -- results in the daemon not running. Guess I need to fix this
problem first.

Thanks,

Rich
