This is not an error I've heard of before. Since this is the Java TCPIP
GUI, make sure that config.sys, protocol.ini and setup.cmd have a couple
of blank lines at the end.

Let me know if that fixes it.

Do you have any known Java problems? What happens if you run:

java -version

from the command line?

>Is there another way to enable the loopback interface?

You probably already have it. It pretty much a default Try:

ifconfig lo

This will tell you if it exists. If not, you can edit \mptn\bin\setup.cmd
and add:

ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1

after the route command.

HTH,

Steven

P.S. Next time you are at the PR airport, say hi to my friend at SSF.
