Hello,
	I have a NeXTstation with 2.1 at home.  I occasionally take it
in to the office at school to get nice ftp access.  Recently when I 
logged out (at home) it had no idea who I was when I tried to log back
in.  I could log in as root, but my regular user name was not known.  I
checked NetInfoManager and all of the information about me was there.
The same with UserManager.  The owner of my directories and accounts 
was my Group ID.  
	A knowledgable friend suggested I try 'nidump' into a file and
then 'niload' back from the file.  However, it would not let me do the
niload.  I can't remember the error message right now and, of course,
I didn't right it down.  Maybe something about can't make connection?
	The friend thought I might have a bad hostconfig file.  He
said that sometimes the system will deteriorate over time.  While, I
can't guarantee that the hostconfig is correct for a standalone machine,
I can say that it does not look for the network when it boots up.  Also,
when I rebooted the machine the problem was fixed (temporarily, at
least. :-)
	Does anyone have any ideas about this?  or seen it before?  I
appreciate any help.  Thank you.
