        Heya. Some answers:

        Hmmm. I thought that what I sent you initially was 0.72.
It was what was on the CVS server at the time. Please let me know if you
need a new copy.

        Wow, that's a weird one. Am working now on redo'ing the GUI
layout completely, though, so I won't worry about this too much. Yet.

        Well that's annoying! I never noticed that before. So, let me
ask: in the NID, what is being used as a device's unique identifier? I
suspect it's not the "EchoFree ID" that's shown in the Standard Tab. It's
(obvisouly) got to be something stable, and the EchoFree ID isn't. I was
under the impression that the unique identifier was a *function* the MAC
address, but not the MAC address itself. For instance, there are serial
printers in the GUI and we'll be adding icons to represent "services" (eg,
an icon for "VNC", a shortcut to starting up connections) -- these things
won't have NIC's that have MAC addresses.
