Wonderful! I have it set on an OS X Server box serving me my FTP, VPN, ssh, telnet, www and QTSS services on a dynamic DSL connection (3.0m/384k) and it's a lifesaver to be able to check hotmail to see where my server is at the moment.

The only gripe, and it's a big gripe for me, is that this sucker consumes processor cycles like it's starving. I run it on an old 7600/400MHz G3 machine with a bunch of RAM, and Ipanema consumes a constant 40% all the time. For a server that's already running on sub-par equipment, processor cycles are a precious commodity. For an application that reports IP addresses once every 10 minutes, 40% is 35% too high.
