FWIW, if you have the requirement, these older, slower, more dependable (than
PC's) workstations can be converted into firewalls/file-servers. When I finally
looked into exporting home directories from a file server, I stopped a lot of
file-duplication and got rid of the problem of out-of-sync files. Also, they
are perfectly suitable as firewalls and/or proxy servers connected to the 
internet by modem.

Jack (who turned his SPARCstation 1 into a server. (Anyone want a 19" monitor?))
