I have a very general question-- What are the advantages of using DNET over say VT100? Obviously, the screen updates for interactive logons are slower for DNET. Are the get/putfiles servers more effective than common protocols? I've looked at the distribution documentation but can find no general information within. Am I missing something there? Any guidence would be appreciated via E-Mail. -- |======================================================================| | Allen H.
