Darn! I checked behind my computer that is under my desk, with Linux on it, and the Ethernet cable came out! The tab that locks it in broke off. Now lets see what happens!

And the vsftpd command does not work in the init.d directory, even though vsftpd is there. But I did killall, and now it stops on boot-up, with some kind of message I'll have to remember it and look it up. I think it was 3 letters and a colon. But I press enter, and then I get to the login prompt. So I uninstalled vsftpd, and I still have the same problem during boot-up. Now when I try and re-install, or install anything, I hear it trying to download from kernel.org and it will not go past 0%. Glenn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph C.
