excellent! thanks for the help... i think we can probably sort something out for them! :-D the sysadmin has already been told that there is an unnatural amount of transfer on the ssh port due to the nature of the research (by the head of department), so they wont be done for bandwidth usage... in fact, updating a debian system is probably negligible compared to the data they truck around. thanks again! cheers, Sam -- Free High School Science Texts http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fhsst Sam's Homepages http://fommil.homeunix.org/~samuel http://www.ma.hw.ac.uk/~samuel
