HI nope Martin, just no go...I used Yast to update all the files in the a1 directory and Yast squawked real bad that grep and sed were not to be found.I now have the problem when I try to re-initialize my firewall script I get the following error message: Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.2.18/modules.dep NOW what do I do? Sed and grep are nowhere to be found still, and now parts of my firewall script (that used to work perfectly) won't let through data that is needed (yes, the proper allowances in the ip-chains script are still there, just that there are the above error messages and I don't seem to be able to connect to the targeted site). In addition, I cannot save the ip-chains script..ipchains-save gives screens of errors saying that sed is not there and it just won't save. I realize that I removed something I shouldn't have..now has anyone any ideas as to where I can find sed and grep? Thank you all that may help Doug Roberts dgr@sk.sympatico.ca -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi
I upgraded from SuSe 6.3 to 7.1, (that was a thrill..yech). I then removed what I thought was unnecessary programs, but I seem to have lost 2 that are needed very much by the system. SED and grep....I have tried to find them, but to no avail. Does anyone know what package of program they reside in, so I can re-install those programs and get things running again?
You need to reinstall the 'base' package.
