I could not get tulip-diag to compile, it complained about undefined 
functions like inb and outb and such.  /proc/net/dev shows nothing but 
485 bytes received in 5 packets, with 3241 sent in 26 packets.  
Everything else is 0.  How can I check the firewall settings? ipfwadm 
says that it's not installed, and ipchains says that it is incompatible 
with the kernel.  iptables says that it can't locate module ip_tables 
and then fails.  I could not find anything else that looked like a 
firewall, but I don't know what to look for.  Thanks,
Steven
