Cool. Some of the other replies were starting to get me thinking it might
not handle it, as the box will also be acting as a print server for a HP
Laserjet 4P that I also just picked up. I guess if I keep it light, there
won't be much problem, but it might not like the 120KB/sec that I sometimes
pull off the net. But if the TFN's system is handling it (even if it is
struggling), I shouldn't expect too much problem.
Thanks,

Contrary to popular belief, Unix is user friendly.
It just happens to be selective about who it makes friends with.
