I installed a minimum installation of Openbsd 3.2 for the purposes of
building a firewall. I then read about your program on the Misc mail list
and decided to give it a try.

I installed the sofi-0.4pre4-src.tar.gz from /usr/src and received numerous
errors mainly about various of Perl not being installed.

I then decided to add the rest of the packages, configure the XF86 4.2.1
package and give it a go thinking perhaps this was the tonic that was
needed to make things all right.

I then checked sourceforge to see if there was a new package and sure
enough, there was.  I downloaded sofi-0.4-src.tar.gz installed it from
/usr/src and this is the result.

<h1> Network autodection failed </h1> Could not determine the value if
IF_INTERNET <h3> -e </h3>

Upon typing the string https://gw.sju.us/ (which is what the program told
me to do, my IP) I received the age-old (wish I knew the fella who wrote
this) "No such file or directory".

>From your discription of your program, it sounds neat.  I sure would like

TIA
