Ah, like I said, no need or even *worry* about me using too much
bandwidth anytime soon; I'm just discussiong "what if" possibilities
with the list.
Look for a new list/webserver (dual CPU Ultra 2) in a week or so..
Will probably make the existing machine a database server, connected
via a crossover cable and a 2nd ethernet interface. Anybody got a
few sbus 10baseT cards to get rid of?
