i've done...

if this service would accept that, it would be good... but they require a pkt
at least once every 10 minutes on port 53 according to the protocol description
i have here, and two other ports for additional communications if there need be
any...
hack, i could probably whip something up in pascal if i had a tcp/ip library
for turbo/borland pascal... i haven't yet gotten any native os/2 pascal... just
not enough time any more these days ;-(
