If so, you can have my current "gateway" machine - a 386SX/16, 5 MB RAM, 110 MB IDE drive, onboard 256K VGA and a 9" (yes, that's NINE inch) greyscale monitori, running FreeBSD 2.0. It's my TCP/IP test partner and crash-test dummy. ;^) I'd be happy to contribute, if you have the bandwidth to support the service, which I suspect you don't. I can ask around the local universities, perhaps one of them has some bandwidth to spare. I even know one that has a lot of 386/25 machines they (mostly) aren't using. ;^) -- Wes Peters | Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late Softweyr | The cannons don't thunder, there's nothing to plunder Consulting | I'm an over forty victim of fate... wes@intele.net | Jimmy Buffet
