Let's see - a) I'm not familiar with Redhat, but I think you're looking for the /etc rc* directories - they contain all the startup scripts for the various runlevels. b) Try just editing /etc/network/interfaces - that contains the local network and eth0 settings - just change the word dhcp to static (pppoe, whatever) c) Can't remeber - xmodmap or locale, maybe? Hopefully somebody else can be of more help here than I can. Good luck, Steve -- Humor in the Court: Q: So, after the anesthesia, when you came out of it, what did you observe with respect to your scalp? A: I didn't see my scalp the whole time I was in the hospital. Q: It was covered? A: Yes, bandaged. Q: Then, later on.. what did you see? A: I had a skin graft. My whole buttocks and leg were removed and put on top of my head.
