Well, by "black box" I thought you meant a SQL7 box
that does NOT have an IP number assigned.

That is my question.  How (what protocol, not tcp/ip)
do folks ACTUALLY USE so my web server/cf box can see
my SQL7 box and my SQL7 box can be seen on my LAN (to
transfer SQL7 backups, Service Packs, etc)
