Its German slang, short for "Guten Tag" which means "Good day". You might 
translate it with the Australian "G'day".

That's exactly what I thougth, when I tried it the first time. It's too easy 
to be true, but it actually is true.
If you run into any problem, you would probably have the same problem when 
trying to install it from a local CD rom. (Hardware incompatibilities like 
large IDE disk drives (2 Gig is too large for an unfixed Warp Connect, SCSI 
works fine) or NE2000 cards that block the system.)

Or you just have read all this stuff about a CID server and all this IBM 
language confused you. ;-)
