Have I got a broken z-Net

[NetworkGuy]

Great!

To check that the patches have been applied, run the znet_info.sh again. Results should be different now.

'sudo reboot' and 'sudo shutdown -r now' do exactly the same thing. I use the 1st cause its less typing

I like less typing too :-)! I ran the info script again and it is different. There are two lines at the end about ser2net not recognized by the utility - is that anything to worry about?

Probably not - I'll take a look at it...

Cool, thanks again for taking your time to look! But my Z-Net is now working again! :-)

You are all set - that signature is correct for the patched ser2net.

The info script is missing that particular entry; I will post an update.

Excellent, thanks for looking into that message. I appreciate your time and effort in helping everyone - me included! :-)

zwolfpack - A couple of weeks ago you helped me with two z-nets that had problems. We jumped through a bunch of hoops. Was that process in effect what is accomplished with the znetcare utility? Or is this a different monster killer?

IIRC, this was the first one: https://forums.homeseer.com/forum/ho...dhcp-or-static

That's a completely different issue (monster).
