I think you misunderstand me.  The XP-SP2 is on a non-Linux machine,
and I need to know how to make it work like -SP1.  It seems to have insulated
all normal functions from the user, and I only found the Command screen by
accident.  I need to know how to put the net interface in--it seems to think
we still use modems--and on, and on.  What a piece of crap!  But I need it.
