But Martin,
How long does it take you to configure *that*? Static IP's? Publishing every
workstation? It doesn't scale very well.
RWW and 'connect to my computer' is not everything to everybody, but it's
very low cost to implement, support and maintain. That is it's design goal,
and it meets the goal.
