It is a driver so that many applications may use it at the sametime. Useful if you have a database and something like NCSA running. I don't know of too many applications that currently use the drivers. NCSA Telnet, SU-MacIP, and TCP/Connect are all that I am aware of. If there are others I would be interested in knowing about them. -- Kurt Baumann InterCon Systems Corporation 46950 Community Plaza Suite 101-132 Sterling, VA 22170 Phone: 703.450.7117
