Grimalkin,
  Thanks for the suggestion.  I am able to view my routing table.  It
appears to be unaltered but I'm still not able connect ot the Web from any
machine on my home network even though they can ping each other.

When I upgraded, did the newer version mess up my ipchains?  When I take a
look at my /proc/net/ip_fwchains file it is empty.  Does this indicate that
ipchains is inactive?  I just did a ./ipchains and it indicates that
ipchains is active.
  Thanks in advance,
  Art
