Hi! Matt,

-This- Win98SE (128Mb RAM, BTW) VirtualBox's server is the busiest by far, with 5-7 regular users doing multiple logins over a 24 hour cycle.  OTOH, Windows 9x-anything was always notorious as a 'server'.

The other Puppy systems (256Mb RAM) have a single user only.  :)

Not currently.  I checked back through this echo and back in April 2006, when I transitioning between Squish & JAM areas (in fact a reversal of a previous switch), I used the SMAPI version.  I gave up when I wasn't running any public Squish areas, or even the Msg netmail area.  I didn't like doing it anyway as I couldn't find a way of signalling my tosser whenever any mail was posted.

Ah-so.

Cheers,
Paul.
