Hi Tim,
Thanks for your reply - I don't know how it was fixed, but from a
term window, I simply ran netconfig again & went through the setup of the
static network again, rebooted the machine again & while the first login
was slow, though much quicker than anything I've previously done to try &
fix this, subsequent logins have been instantaneous. thanks for your
replies.
Bye for now, Terry Allen
