192.168.1.0 network. It will then do NAT'ing, which will require you to put
a route on your firewall, letting it know where to send the 192.168.1.0

I have used tightvnc to access a remote box, which gives you the

There is a problem with the power supply on Dell. At some point, they
reversed the polarity, making it proprietary. If you put a non-Dell
motherboard on one of those machines without changing out the
powersupply, you'll fry it.

If you have a SATA controller on your motherboard (i.e., SATA
