   Please accept my apologies for cluttering your mailbox on such a nice
summer Saturday afternoon. After posting my message I went back to looking
for the source of the problem and found it; naturally, after sending the
message, not before.

   Apparently, when checking configuration files after upgrading packages I
must have inadvertently changed one digit in the IP address of the default
gateway in /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf. Sigh. As there was no valid default
gateway in the configuration file none was established when the system was
rebooted.

Mea culpa,

Rich
