Look at Waste. A friend recommended it to me today as a means for creating small private networks of shared files amongst non- colocated users. waste.sourceforge.net Doesn't seem to do actual "networking", per se, but as I had it explained to me, upon boot, the remote users' PCs are mounted as disk drives on your PC (say, as the X: drive). Could be handy. Mike H. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
