    Hi all,

    I have a homenet with 9 computers, mostly for playing and learning, but I
    also run my business on it. I believe I keep a pretty tight ship, but
    sometimes while I'm in the process of playing, well, you know...

    It's never been particularly fun for the kids because of the locking down,
    but I can keep the horde back no more.

    I want (need) to set up a couple of computers that are open for the kids to
    use IM, do what they want with the desk and load crap they want to load.
    Basically they need eveything open so they can learn.

    I have some unmanaged hubs, Cisco switches (2900) and flexibility in the
    wiring. Fly in the ointment is a single cable modem and an 8 port Linksys
    router.

    Right now I run 2k and XP with a 4.0 server. No flavours of *nix.

    Oh, yeah, and right now - zero budget.

    I like to solicit advice of configurations for isolating the play side from
    the work side. Can this be done practically and still have access to the
    cloud from all terminals?

    Any help for a relative newbie would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Mada
