Cool, will take a look, thanks! Looks like this is based on a unix platform. Our org is 99.9% XP, so wouldn't work for them, but I can check it out on one of my unix boxes (I'm one of the 0.1% that has one in addition to an XP machine). As you say, if nothing else, it might give me some ideas. Much appreciated! Mike. ______________________________ Mike Kerr Sr. Internet Network Engineer (703) 886-2251 mik...@ve...
