Well, another NIC could be added to mlug.missouri.edu and then people
could ssh to the other box from mlug. I don't think that would be
"cheating". Granted, I can't imagine having a normal user shell account on
a OpenBSD machine is going to be much different then a user account on a
Linux machine, I guess thats on purpose.

I would certainly be willing to give money if a metaphorical hat was
passed around. I think we could raise quite a bit of money this way...
perhaps get SCSI? Or RAID so that hard drive failures wouldn't be as much
an issue. I don't really have much of an idea how much this would cost or
its feasibility.
