Alrighty - thanks for the advice guys.  I will work on this today - I was
not aware that the job could be done with a switch / hub involved, or that
you could use other than a 3com / Intel NIC.  I'll give it a shot and do a
little experimenting!

I thought the restore from the command line would do the same thing, but I
was obviously mistaken.

Thank you,
