this was also the case.  there were a handful of files that somehow lost
their execute permissions.

I reinstalled from the latest version of the boot disks, changed the
127.0.0.0 problem, uncommented the daemons, and all was well.

(hmm, how about a utility that runs around the disk, finds these kinds
of parameters, & saves them, so it can fix evil happenings later?  If i
knew enoght, i'd write one . . .)
