debs,

update:

ok, i figured out  that "ifconfig eth0 down" no longer makes eht0 an active interface .
so now my active interfaces are "lo" and "ppp0."

here's my  script "ifconfig":

Script started on Tue Aug 22 14:59:26 2000 1NET:/home/bt# ifconfig

lo

Link encap:Local Loopback

 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

ppp0

q:  why is my "lo" barren--no ip addressing...?
