No, I want two boxes - ok a box and a half running their own copy of mbse 
where
the Pi has a special network address and has as its uplink the primary system
to get and pass files, netmail and echo traffic to it.

mbse will not be doing a lot and and web and hopefully the ftp interfaces will
not be used.

If any files arrive on the primary I wil have to have some kind of script to
transfer them to the Pi.  Just another function to work out but I really hope
that is not needed!

Thanks for the suggestion.
