I set it up some more - it does DNS and some other stuff. However, it
doesn't like morwong XDMCP - it resets the display as it's drawing the
Alpha AXP logo  :-( It also has a graphical setup utility, but it's
password protected. It used to belong to the centre for water research, so
maybe they'll have the password.

I think it's 4mb internal, 4mb external (the simm). We also need to
find/fix a working vga monitor I think.
