Doubtful,  it is *absolutely* identical to all the other WinY2k 
workstations as far as the software installed (AFAIK) and hardware (I know 
they are all identical in that aspect).  But I'll wander down today and 
take a look.

The values of ECN and priority bits are normal,  which is unusual if this 
is QOS related traffic.

Nothing like subversion!   Question is whether IvyTech will ever ask you 
to fill in again? :)

I bought an Active Directory book to see how it stacks up to LDAP.... Ick.  
It is like LDAP plus some wierd RPCs and a whole pile of "No, you must do 
it this way."
