I appreciate any help at all! route shows what I'm guessing is
normal stuff (similar to netstat -nr), but I'll keep an eye on it.
Right now everything is working OK because I rebooted earlier, but
I'm expecting it to go south sometime.
I forgot to mention that I was able do a trivial ftp and web page
download from the same machine using localhost when I was unable to
get in from another machine (SGI O2, in this case).
Thanks -
Chuck
