Question Still Stuck...

Alright, I've edited the hosts file in /etc and the computer is now visible on the network at startup Smilie

Unfortunately I'm still getting the following errors:

At startup:

The system is coming up...
...
sylog service starting
sylogd: line 23: WARNING: loghost could not be resolved
...
The system is ready

After the login prompt appears the inetd error messages start up again:

inetd [102]: 100232/rpc/udp version 10: rpcb_set: not started
...

I don't think the loghost is too much of a problem but I'm worried about the inetd problems as there is a service that should be running (ExtraWEB) that I should be able to connect to via a admin tool on my PC but it is unable to find it... any ideas what could be causing them and how to fix it?

On a side note there was originally no keyboard or monitor plugged into the box but if I try to disconnect the keyboard now it beeps and says: Type 'go' to resume and dissapears from the network until a keyboard is plugged back in and 'go' is typed in... Any ideas how to get it back to the original state?

Thanks in advance.
