Well I only meant that the tech support expressed great surprise that I didn't have to
set an ip address for each interface.  Subsequent models use one IP/multi port.  Not
this model which requires separate IP interfaces.  However thanks I didn't know that
much about *how* it actually worked apart from a vague notion. :)

The only other oddity is that this XL was made in Puerto Rico!  hmmmm..

Yeah I know what you mean about the ports page.. I saw it.. noted it.. lost it!  But I
have the port numbers already thanks.  You may be interested in this page.. the
Technical Description.
http://support.intel.com/support/netport/vintage/6114.htm
There is a support forum on newsgroups.intel.com
intel.networking_and_communications.network_print_products
where I have had some further information.. may be valuable to anyone trying to get
these things working.

I just read your notes on netcat.. it seems like the only way to go for a uniform way
of managing these things.  Thanks for all your help Jeff :)
