[ale] What security measures do I need?

[Jim Lynch]

I've been reading with interest about the vserver.  THat sounds like it
might also be an alternative.  Run trusteddbeian on one server and my
file service for the other machines on another.  Can muliple servers
share a network port or will I have to install another nic?

Thanks,
Jim.
