...has anyone else played with this machine?  It's a DS10-L w/512 meg
running a GENERIC kernel.

...they drop outbound tcp/udp/icmp, so the box is basically useless for
toying, but you can ftp _to_ it, so I was thinking about cross-compiling
some kernels on it.  It's free CPU time on a nice machine.
