complains, I will stop, but every time a suggestion crops up, I
remember something I forgot in the original plea for help.

LART session @ my place, 4pm tomorrow.  Be there, or be square.  :)

ridiculous---just about every module complains about unresolved
symbols, but all of the net drivers load without complaining, it's
just ip masq stuff that is carrying on.  What is going on?

Like you say, it certainly can't make any difference, but it certainly
can't hurt to give it a go---after all this *is* a computer we're
talking about...
