IIRC, I didn't start TCPIP after the upgrade, because I feared that the 
SMTP configuration would be a real pain.  Actually, it worked OK.  (I 
still don't like the idea of a text file for configuration; will SYSUAF 
go the same route in the future?)  Maybe I should shut down TCPIP and 
then see if I can get the login box to come up.
