My NPDS server is offline for the moment (my office is currently relocated to another \
room that doesn't have a dedicated ethernet drop).

However, I've had a very successful run using a Farallon Ethernet Card (16-0095-000 \
Rev. B) and an Etherwave dongle using a static IP and NPDS Watcher. Yes, every couple \
of days the whole thing stops accepting connections, but Watcher does a great job of \
rebooting the system when needed.
