I'm stumped so far, but I haven't gone back through all the e-mails
and taken the time to really think about it yet either.  Have too
big of a TODO list so far this weekend.

Is it possible that this machine is on a full-time connection and
that I could get a temporary account on it to look around a bit?
Just looking for a normal user account, not root access.  If so, and
your firewall might let me in, send me a private e-mail.  I can do an
SSH connection to it so the passwords won't go in the clear, if you
have sshd up and running.
