Well, on mine it only did not patch 2 files, which I think were
amigaguide files which I deleted awhile ago.  I've gotten static slip to
work, but cannot, at least after two hours, get dynamic slip with or
without bootp to work.  The program does not even DIAL as claimed.
Right now I'm simulating a dynamic slip connection with an arexx script
to dial in and process the bootp output to automate the connection as I
did in 4.2.

The only thing I can think of for you to do is to 1) make sure that all
files are in the original state (e.g. not compressed by powerpacker,
deleted, etc), or if all files are not modified as far as you can tell,
2) reinstall a clean copy, and run the patch on that to see what you
get.  Good luck.

Another odd thing also happened: none of my daemons are working!  I no
longer have ftpd or telnetd functional.  They are defined in inet.conf
and as far as I can tell they are as before.

If anyone gets dynamic slip with/with out bootp to work, please email me
or post here.  Thanks!
