Yes - we have a Replay 4xxx (I think) that I upgraded a couple years back
w/ a larger HD. Hope we can keep it running "forever" -- I've become quite
attached to the commercial skip feature - it "just works".  The only
problem with WiRNS is that it's a .NET app - I've only run it on XP - not
sure if it can be run under WINE.

It's been a while since I configured it. As I recall, setup was a little
complicated, but the documentation was pretty clear. I don't think you'll
have trouble getting it configured.

Thanks, Steve, I'll check that out.  Are you using it for a ReplayTV
devices as well?  If so, I might want to pick your brain as to setup
details, after I check WIRNS out
