Thank you Les for your help. I'm grateful. I'm a full-time teacher and also run the DNS, firewalls, webpage and the ltsp servers and 100 clients. I'm just comfortably busy (whine) but anything new sure adds to the pile it seems!
I wonder for convenience if I can run an XP Pro in a virtual box for my testing. This way I wouldn't have to mess with any other hardware.
