Josh,

I don't think you can do selective backups, as far as I know, you can
only do selective restores.

Ethernet would be using AppleTalk. And although WinNT Server can
speak AppleTalk, NCU for Win does not support this option, I found
out one day when I tried this.

This is relatively easy. When you install the Internet Setup
application, you should also install the ISP templates. I am using
the earthlink setup when I use a modem and I have no problem with it
what so ever. You just follow the "guided tour" when you set up the
ISP. If you don't have the ISP templates, download them from where
ever you can d/l NIE, I think it's all packaged into one big file.

If you don't come right, let us know which ISP you are using and how
you have set it up on your PC (or Mac :), since some ISPs are
different than others.

Good luck,
- Chris
