Pwan Central is in a world of pain because I forgot to run "lilo" after rebuilding the kernel last night.
Extra double pain actually as apparently I have my BIOS set to boot from disk first, so I can't get it boot the Gentoo Rescue CD. The monitor's not even working. Pwan Central is stale soggy bread without even the golden promise of toast.
Update: Pwan Central is back up an better than ever. I had to pop open the case and disconnect the hard drive. After this the monitor came back up, and I could get to the bios settings and change it to boot from CD first. After that it was easy to get it back up and running. Gentoo is a joy.
Now the kernel configured with packet filtering on. This allows me to filter out all those annoying ping and NBNS requests which were keeping my pppd connection from idling out.
Yes, I am the last person in Northern Virginia to still use a dial-up line.
