Yeah but unfortunately accross 10 Mbit and the IPX doubling off as a Small NFS
server theirs not much more bandwidth to be had... The only way I could do is
is Double NIC my other Xserver and run on a different Class C between them one
segment for NFS one segment for X (the IPX is double NIC'd becuse I have a
combo ethernet/differential scsi Card in it)

I don't know what my bottle neck is I just have so many to choose from :)
