OK, so what's the secret?  Somewhere in my configuration of a CPU and 
authentication server, I have managed to screw up.  Now how do I 
persuade the auth server not to look for itself on the network so it 
can grant itself access to the fileserver?

It eventually gives up and uses its own password, but I dislike waiting 
for it to time out first.  This is not the way "things are meant to be" 
but I can't figure out what it is that I need to change.

Please can some kind soul point me to the right place (the NET db?  I 
don't think I've broken anything in there - the KEY file, how do I 
remove the AUTH portion of it, without destroying it completely?  what 
is the real address for a dummy auth 0.0.0.1, 0.0.1.0?  I have 
conflicting values in various places :-(

Thanks a lot, everyone.
