Thanks for your response on this, but unfortunately I'm not using ifplugd at
all.

I don't have the package installed and /etc/ifplugd doesn't exist.

Today I've brought my laptop to work with me and I've assembled the latest
testing CD with Jigdo to just blow it away and start from scratch as I wouldn't
be surprised if something has gone amiss since I first installed Sarge on it.

Thanks for the reply anyway  :-)
