For those of you who did not read this on the Winmac page, the Achelous Kernel Development Site is at http://24.246.52.88/ I am expecting 1 more IP change as the company who is providing the IP's for the Cable Modems in town is going bankrupt, and we are in the process of changing to a new company.
