I'll have to give that a try....too bad I don't know anything about
programming since the full source is available for Maximus now;)

I've always wondered about netfoss....and since comip and netfoss are made
by the same person they should work well together...do I still need a fossil
driver if I use netfoss?? I recall it said something about using a fossil
with netfoss on the pcmicro website last time I checked it....
