Kent,
Sorry, I should have included this question in
the previous post, and forgot:
Will pump run at all if dhcp is not enabled in
/etc/network/interfaces? Because eth0 will *not*
come up at all with dhcp enabled there. So
pump is not normally being called up anyway,
right? (Since eth0 is

mention that I had never made changes to the

Thanks to everyone who replied. I didn't want to
weigh down my first post with a lot of info that
