Actually I was waiting to hear back from you before I commented the line out again. I thought NOT having it may have gotten me through the boot up but may have been what it hanging CDE starting.
I read something somewhere yesterday that gave me pause: It said that if your hostname is not registered with the DNS server that CDE wouldn't start. Do you know anything about this? I've got the machine sitting behind a net sharing router in my office at work. It's a double DHCP setup. The router uses DHCP to get it's IP and other info AND the 712 is setup to use DHCP to get it's info from the router. There's no way that IT is going to add this machine to our corp DNS server. Am I boned?
