I am not sure that it has to be rebooted, but I wanted to make sure
that this
was a permanent fix and not one that I would have to fight everytime the
system was rebooted. The USB disk in question is supposed to be
permanently on the network.

Interesting..do you mean Redhat has to be "rebooted" - this is a 2.4
kernel you're talking about right?

Geofrey,
I found the problem.
RedHat has to be booted. The USB disk cannot have any
electrical current to the disk.
Then connect the USB to the RedHat system. Now plug the USB disk into
the electrical current to turn it on.
You will see the disk listed using
lsusb
Reboot your system and the USB disk is recognized as the old
/dev/sdb again.
I don't know why this works, but I am glad I have it working
again.
Thanks for all your help.

Try unplugging it, then type:
# tail -f /var/log/messages
Then plug it back in - you should see messages written to this file.

Nope. I just see the system disk.

Can you see the device with:
# fdisk -l

I have a laCie auxiliary disk which has been working on a 2.4.21-53
RedHat system. The disk was accidently turned off during the
afternoon. Now I cannot get the device recognized by the system
again. The system can't open /dev/sdb.
I was able to mount the disk on a newer RedHat system, but I need
to
get it working on the previous system.
What should I do next?
