That's great news Danny! Now if only we could get sharky to work, we can make our network a purely Linux one. A Microsoft Solution Provider in Sta. Monica told us that Linux might be free, but the consultants would "kill us" with their labor costs, plus the latest useful software don't run on the Linux Emulators so its better to install a Windows 2000 advanced server and Windows workstations. Darren told me these exact words "maybe this whole Linux idea is a big mistake..." but I told him I'll talk to a couple more consultants if something could be worked out... I'll get to the other questions later, we're swamped with work every Monday =) Thanks!
