Perry, Without discussion and questioning where would we all be? Would we all be running ARPA nets, or even still hunting animals with clubs? Do you consider the standards to be the last word and that there is no room for discussion? I hope not, and I am sure the standards authors welcome discussion. For those of us 'who know very little', discussions like this may help us raise up our sad selves to actually be able to lick your boots one day. :P If you have nothing constructive to say then say nothing. -Steve. ====================================================== Steve Carter scarter@genuity.net GTE Internetworking Phone: (602) 308 2386 http://www.genuity.net http://www.bbn.com ====================================================== Perry E.

Its really amazing how people who know very little seem to think they have so much to say.
Do any of you rocket scientists have even the smallest inkling of the fact that there are people out there who actually DO know what they are talking about, and have produced standards explaining how to do the stuff?
