okay, I've installed minix 2.0.0 and compiled the kernel with networking
support, and i've edited /etc/ttytab to talk to my modems.  My question
is:  do I have to recompile to include the changes?  I guess what I really
want to knwo is when do I have to recompile? I'm relatively new to unix in
general and I don't know when make is called for. What files need to be
maked and which don't.  Sorry in advance for my neophytism, but these type
of questions are necessary aren't they?

much thanks in advance.

Paul
