No Network blues

I recently upgraded to MOL 0.9.65.  After playing with OS X and 
having it de-bless my boot volume and spending two solid days trying 
to get the box booting Linux again, I'm back to trying to get OS 9 
working.

OS 9 BOOTS, but I have absolutely NO NETWORKING.  In fact, if I 
attempt to open the AppleTalk Control Panel, I get the message:

"There are no Network Ports available for AppleTalk."

TCP/IP won't open because AppleTalk isn't available.  (??!!!)


I observed that the new MOL creates a /etc/mol directory in which 
there are various scripts.  Assuming that when booting OS 9 the 
/etc/mol/molrc.macos script is to be used, I created a symlink in 
/etc/mol/molrc.macos --> /etc/molrc, which was the file that 
previously worked wonderfully for me.

In that file I declare networking thus:

netdev:  eth0  -sheep

What do I need to change to get networkking working again?

TIA,
...ROMeyn
