What David failed to codify in his "impossible" reply is that it is 
impossible USING APPLE-SUPPLIED HARDWARE/SOFTWARE.  However, this should be
possible using the Shiva NetSerial (from what I've read about it -- I've 
never even SEEN a real live one).

For a company that expects third-party developers to provide most of what the
user community wants (and sometimes appears to use that statement as a way to 
get out of explaining why they don't provide it), they sure don't do much to 
promote those third-party developers......
