 I have seen the same sort of problem occuring from our ethernet-based
 Macs.  We have both a MacII w/EtherTalk and a MacSE w/EtherPortSE on
 the same ethernet with the K-box.  When both Macs are on the
 ethernet, using the Chooser from either one produces the problem
 described above.  If I take the MacSE off the ethernet and leave the
 MacII on it, the problem still occurs when using the Chooser from
 the MacII.  However, if I take the MacII off the ethernet and leave
 the MacSE on it, the problem disappears when using the Chooser from
 the MacSE.  In all cases, the EtherTalk setting for the K-box is on.
