It works for me. I deleted all the symlinks to /conf and created my
configuration files in /etc. If people are having special problems
with some of the files, let me know which ones and I will post mine.
Oh yes, one I will post because it took me ages figuring out - my
/etc/rc.net. Here it is:

#! /bin/sh
/etc/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 up
/etc/route add 127.0.0.1
/etc/ifconfig eth0 131.111.131.3 up dstaddr 131.111.131.62
/etc/route add default gw 131.111.131.62
(cd /usr/etc;./inetd)

(My IP address is 131.111.131.3, and my router's address is
131.111.131.62. It should be possible, with that information, to see
what is going on.)
