Cool. I guess eventually I will learn how to make my 3com Impact IQ work
with Linux. At that point I could have it act as the proxy for my network
at home rather than running wingate on one of my windows machines. As
a matter of fact, I need to learn how to do that soon because wingate is
only free for 2 computers - anything more than that and you have to pay
for it, and I'm not going to pay for a windows product that will do what
a free linux one will do.

Mmmmm, Linux SMP. :) Nah, if I did that I'd be tempted to move all my
Quake2 stuff over to the Linux box, and I have too many irons in the fire
to learn a new OS and learn how to tweak out all my 3d card stuf on it
as well. :)
Oh crap, I just remembered. I'm having work order some of the lavaport
pci serial cards with the 16650 UARTs in them so I can troubleshoot the
compression we've started running on our ISDN connections. Looks like I'm
going to have to stick with a windows machine as the proxy server for a
while at least, which means I need to look into forking over some cash
for wingate. Oh well, they deserve it anyway - it's come a long way
since the early releases.
Man, I like this off-topic group. Tech talk with fellow Legomaniacs. :)
