That worked quite well.

As has been mentioned previously, I still ended up without
/usr/lib/apache/pwauth.

Referring to MNF8.2  I found that the above file was provided by
[root@localhost lib]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/apache/pwauth
mod_auth_external-2.1.14-9mdk

Adding mod_auth_external to MNF2 provided the file but not the 
solution.  The
problem seems to be as discussed elsewhere that pwauth is unahppy that
getuid32() returns 502 (httpd-naat).

Manually substituting pwauth from MNF8.2 solves the problem but ....

Other minor niggles:

I had to delete startup/kill scripts for diald, httpd and naatd, (the
latter was bound to tcp/8443). (I don't want to run diald as there
is no modem attached)

Also:

https://localhost:8443/

does not generate the login screen, (just naatd is running ...)

but

https://localhost:8443/en

works as expected.

A general comment is that this still feels like beta code :(

Using the MNF2 interface I managed to get it completely confused about about
what interfaces /IP addresses were configured.  I was then unable to connect
using the MNF2 interface to localhost or 127.0.0.1.  It appeared to 
insist on
redirecting to a non-existent IP address.

(I then used netconfig  to make the system agree with MNF2,)

Even thought I have deleted the interface associated with the WAN, it 
still presents the
invalid information in the Internet status screen - there seems to be no way
to delete it.
