Nope.  Ip addr, hostname and domainname haven't changed in years.
I've seen this 4 or 5 times since I upgraded from 1.5 to 3.0.1.

Hmmm, and I didn't start to see this until after I started running Pan.
Wonder if that's a problem under twm?

Next time this happens I will double check all that and

  netstat -tan | egrep -i 6000

as suggested by BAS.

Thanks,
Paul
