Hi Jeremy,
You were correct. Somehow some files in /etc/rc.d had permissions of 644.
Setting the new permissions to that of the old fixed the problem. Thanks.

Hi Jeremy,
I always back up /etc before I upgrade the system. The old /etc works just
fine. I will eventually go back in and check out the new /etc to see what
is wrong.
Sincerely, Rob.

Hi Jeremy,
I used Mergemaster. Thats what I mean't when I said that I carefully
"merged" /usr/src/etc/ with /etc. But like I said, no files were
replaced that contained my own configuration, e.g. group. I will say
this- that I have always considered Mergemaster a confusing mess,
despite the dog

First I am running 7.0-Stable and just cvsup'd today. Then I built the
system, new kernel, and installed them. Second I am using the GENERIC
KERNEL. Sysctl.conf is empty. I will put my /etc/rc.conf at the end. I
