   Hello Janis,

   That's almost exactly what I use here except that I use default ports since I   
   at the moment don't use a web server front end. One other thing that I may   
   change on the setup is to NOT use all available nodes for telnet purposes.

   I didn't think it did but couldn't recall for sure.

   Thanks, I will give a try and evaluate the results.
