Cool, yes, I found it now, and recognize the hardware; I used to develop networking bits for an early version of Acorns NC; which ended up with oracle after Acorn was bought out. Just curiousity. This box is a logical next step :-). Cool box though. Much better than the original; though also much more expensive; it used to be targeted at the sub 180 dollar range. If I recall corrctly I would be extremely suspicious of any thing having to do with select(). There is an issue with the mapping to poll() and the way the signallying is handled. Dw.
