The problem is that pcmcia services have not started when network services start. This causes a failure. Most likely if you eject and reinsert the card it would start and work. By telling it NOT to start at boot time network services ignores it for the moment. When pcmcia services start the card will automagically startup and work even though you told network services NOT to start it at boot time. I still contend that this is seriously broken. There is a work around but heaven help you if you have multiple pcmcia network cards. -- Scot L. Harris webid@xxxxxxxxxx "Mind if I smoke?" "I don't care if you burst into flames and die!"
