	No, I typed the args separately, of course.  After I
	added the packet filter pseudo-devices the dhcpd binary
	began to behave.  

	Here is the last /var/log/console.log before I decided to
	take a break.  Do you know where these errors are coming
	from?

	(Plese excuse the line wraps.)

	This has worked without any problems for many months; all 
	of a sudden, <<something>> blew up.  

	Is there a way of tracing where the "sage named[`pid`] output
	comes from--or what causes it?  I've moved /usr/scin/named.
