Jim,

This 'adaptor teamin'...this is like the 'nic bonding' Gavin refers to 
on his site?
And if so...does this mean...I could have say 4 Gig-E nics ... all 
plugged into seperate
switches, but doing the same job as eth0 on the K12LTSP server so that 
each lab has it's
own ~1GB bandwidth?  then my limits would be based on my RAM and CPU 
basically.
