Interesting. Does it support it by default? I've always assumed that one of the reasons for the lack of uptake was because Windows didn't support it out of the box. I've always just assumed that more IPs==better (hence my complete ignorance on the subject). I understand how I can run several PCs/toasters/microwaves or websites on a single box with their own DNS entries, but at some point won't their be too many boxes for IPs? Like I said, I don't properly understand networking so if anybody has any links that I could read then let me know (in a "I've read Wikipedia and the first few Google hits and also know that my arse isn't connected to my elbow" kind of way ;)) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
