Hello, We have a NeXTcube that doesn't want to boot up. Before this problem came up, we were in the process of changing its internet address and name with NetManager. Upon saving the information, the cube informed me that it was going to reboot; I replied OK, and that was when the problem started. At first, I couldn't get the login dialog. I went into the monitor via Command-~ and did a reboot and got the login dialog; however, the Workspace never came up. Subsequent reboots resulted from the no login after dialog box to the hard disk not recognized. I was able to get into single-user mode; however. I've contacted NeXT technical support and our local rep, who referred me to someone else--I'm still awaiting a callback. Our ideal configuration for our cube would be for it to run Yellow Pages so it can talk with our HP9000 series 300s, 850s, and Sun workstations. Any information would be greatly appreciated, Ken ______________________________________________________________________________ tempest@ecst.csuchico.edu, tempest@walleye.ecst.csuchico.edu,|Kenneth K.F.

Before this I found out why it wasn't booting reliably--I tweaked the subnet mask and forgot about it. Booting in single-user mode and modifying a file in /etc solved everything. Now, I've still got to figure out yellow pages...
