Dave, in the other forum that I'm a member of "ascii forum" for computer
bussiness owners, a guy just made this statement. Could it be true?
**********************************************
Dealing with constant downloads of MS updates is one area where a caching
proxy server is helpful. If the download is already in the proxy cache, the
download happens instantly.
***************************************************************************
If so, we fixin to proxy dude!! With sambar!!
BTW, if your not an ascii member, you should be. It's 100.00 monthly and the
benifits are well worth it with TD and Ingram etc.. The discounts with
these venders and others will pay your dues. If you've any questions, just
ask off forum and I'll tell you all about it!

done all the damage that they can.

so has most of the members. Sambar is A-OK in my book and I've worked with a
number of other webservers as well. It's enough to say that I use Sambar and
not any of the others.
