(everybody wanting to set up sup)

Check out ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/sup-server-kit.tar.gz

About 8-10% of a T1, I'd guess (and that's purely a guess), depending
largely on how fast the connections of the folks supping is.  If
you're dealing with 20 V.34 speed connections, that would be a
different matter.

Well, please at least save my message concerning where to send it. :-)

sup file for CVS bits - assumes sup info files want to live in /a/sup
and CVS repository lives under /home/ncvs.  Please adjust to fit your
