I'm working on exactly that, but it will probably be a few more days until I've got it down to a science. I just got my new 1U server appliance, and have to play some with the new toy... In case you missed these, CompGeeks was selling an Intel 1U web server appliance (ie "headless"), with 750 MHz P3, Adaptec 29160, 9G quantum drive, 256 Meg ram, and 2 onboard NIC's...all for $635. I wish I'd bought three instead of one (I didn't know they had 64 bit Adaptec 29160's in them at the time!!!), but then I might never get back to LEAF work ;-) Charles Steinkuehler http://lrp.steinkuehler.net http://c0wz.steinkuehler.net (lrp.c0wz.com mirror) _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
