Thanks to all for the info.  I really don't want NetBEUI on my network.  If
WriteLog networking works properly with just TCP/IP, then that's all I'll
have enabled.  Internet is firewalled with a NAT/DSL router so I don't
really worry about someone getting at my shares.

No, but if you have an internet connection it's risky. When sharing
is enabled in TCP/IP, you are opening your hard drive to the
outside world. For more info go to www.grc.com.
