I run a Belkin 4 Port switch with a Win2K, FreeBSD, RH 6.2 and NTWKST. Works great, except for the wireless Logitech mouse. The double click action on the side button fails when I plug it into the switch. Not a limitation of any of the OS's or the switch, just the mouse. --Sean "If we weren't all crazy, we would go insane." Jimmy Buffett -----Original Message----- From: Joseph S.

I plug and unplug my much too often and it hasn't hurt anything (yet) so I too finally got a switch. I didn't have to do anything to mine to add my switch. -- Joseph S Gardner Senior Designer / Technical Support Kirby Co., Cleveland, OH [EMAIL PROTECTED] The box said, "Requires Windows 3.x or better", so I got Linux.
