That's what I did.  You might think it's bad that something's
lacking in the system but it's exactly what I wanted to hear.  That
way I can stop looking for it and get on with configuring it myself!

I think you meant "modules.dep" ; or do you put your insmod 
in something other than /etc/rc.modules as you described above?

Yes, I intended to explain that I had figured all this out by
way of reading the network script and such.  Also a lot of 
RedHat experience.

Thanks for the the help.
