Hi Grant

Thanks for that but I think I am getting out of my depth here.  /etc/groups on 
Ubuntu does not contain a group netdev, on SabayonLinux the group exists but 
I (well "sabayonuser")  am not a member.

I will do some more homework and in any case bring along the machine.

Thanks again, will keep studying.

Peter
