Vk> Thanks. Others write the code, but I can suggest features. :)
Sometimes that's all it takes. When suggestions are made to me I ponder them
and if I feel they make logical sense to add to the project I will. If not
then they go in the circular file for future (non)reference <G> There's
actually been a few times where I've discounted using a suggestion but later
on I've incorporated it.

Netware was solid as a rock for being a 'file' server. Wasn't too bad as
a communications server either - a bit trickier to set up but worked. Even
had it's email system working on it... in house only but that's all we really
needed at the time. Windows - forget it. More ram leakage than in the
Watergate Tapes <G> N4GAA does Microsoft "Security"... their secret policy is
to *always* have back doors. For IP stability, linux 2nd, BSD 1st. I just wish
there was a good ax.25 stack for it. Brian Kantor started to write one as that
was his OS of choice.

LOL!

That sounds sorta interesting.

So be it, will be waiting.
