Dunno.  We'll se what doesn't work after the networking is straightened

> I think the ipfwadm lines in netbase are probably messed up.

If you think they're messed up post 'em.  Someone will be able to help you
out.

> Say is there a gui netconfig tool for debian?

Nope.

No.  The network configuration is handled by the installation mechanism
and is never touched by dselect/dpkg/apt-*.
