Reborg:
I am sure that you are right that the system isn't making it all the way through level 3, as I have traced the other "symptoms" to missing "daemons"...
'ssh' and 'sftp' were not running because 'sshd', like 'nfsd', was not started at boot up. I just restarted 'sshd' manually, and now I can connect with both 'ssh' and 'sftp'.
You wrote:
"Sorry I wasn't very clear there, I meant when you reboot the machine,..."
I am still not sure what you mean? At what point do I run 'ptree' during reboot?
I will now 'truss' and report.
Thanks!
