I doubt we'll have too many simultaneous users.  Wouldn't think
bandwidth would be a problem.  10mbps?!!  That's an ethernet!  

Sheesh, the bandwidth requirements are similar to a telnet login session
(telnet is actually the lowest-common-denominator client, and the one
with the highest bandwidth requirements).  I'd think a 64Kbps ISDN link
would be sufficient bandwidth for a half dozen simultaneous users.  

I wasn't thinking about announcing the presence of the server outside of
this list.

Source is at http://nngs.cosmic.org/src/ -- you'll need the README file
as well.  I had to hack out all the -traditional stuff in the makefile
to get it to compile, but other than that no problems (lots of warnings
though).

Works for me.
