Okay.

I just did.  I admit, with some trepedation, because I didn't see
how/why it would do anything, but it might, and if it did, I might not
be able to get back into my RaQ.

So I deleted my main interface.

And I could still FTP from my home into my colocated RaQ3.

Then I deleted all my interfaces except for the localhost interface.

And I could still FTP from my home into my colocated RaQ3.

Then I deleted the entire file.

And I could still FTP from my home into my colocated RaQ3.

I restored the file and wrote this email.

I'm running a nameserver (Bind, the "named" daemon) on my RaQ.  Might
that make a difference?  Probably.  But I can't turn it off; it serves
too many domains.
