I don't understand the question. Maybe someone trashed /etc/protocols ?

# diff /etc/.proto..protocols /etc/protocols
(this should return nothing on most systems)

You should post the exact error you're seeing to help narrow it down
(but google for it first

I was not aware that you can disable it. Maybe the whole network module
is down? Try "ifconfig -a" and see if the interfaces are UP.

Nix.
