Yeah, after looking at it a bit closer, the problem seems to be that
in the later kernels (2.4.5+ are what I had tested with this config
file), it's enabled at boot time, where it is not in the RedHat
2.4.3-12 kernel.
I know how to shut it off via the proc interface, but the person who
decided to change that behavior definitely goofed there, since I would
imagine most people would prefer the default TCP/IP setup to have the
widest possible compatibility.
Sorry for the wasted bandwidth... ;)
