Hi there - 

I am running 2 Mac IIs as file servers.   One has 4 megs ram and the other 
has 2 megs ram and are both running Appleshare 2.01 and Apple's print 
server software (v 2.0).  In addition, I have them running Timbuktu 3.1 as 
guests so I can adminsister them from my mac. 

It seems that when I restart either server, the ram cache is set.  I think 
it is due to TB2, but I can't find any references to the cache in the TB2 
manual (or the Print server or File server manuals).  The cache is set 
quite high, and i am wondering WHY this is occurring automatically - is it 
because of the preferences i have set in the TB2 preferences menu(s)?

Am I missing something basic, here?  Any info would be appreciated!
