Walt- I forgot to include one piece of very important information.  I have
been attempting to start Xorg via a remote machine using Terminal.  Last
night I decided to connect a monitor to the server and I discovered that the
problem is probably a pilot error.  As a result of my "screw up", when my
server boots up it now starts the GUI.  Now I need to search the web to get
some help on how to prevent my server from starting GDM.
