   1. An overriding RAM restriction: 4Gb per host.  2.  Win98se needs only 128Mb   
   RAM, and the older Puppy systems only need 256-512Mb/per.  3. No income, as all   
    of my wealth is tied up in assets.

   Excuse me?  I've never run iRex for anything.  I confused you.  Sorry.   
      
   I was running Radius for a downlink using iRex/W32 who will not reset to port   
   24555, to catch my backup system after the primary node imploded in the vBox   
   update on 17 August.   
      
   Radius TRAP-ped on my web-tools server Win98se vBox, so I'm now running two   
   binkD servers on both ports, 24554 & 24555.  Only one is nodelisted.  (The   
   second binkD was always running as a LAN 'Stargate' IAC.)  Both are publically   
   available though only the nodelisted one will serve *all* current links.

   Yes.

   Yes.  :(
