Under the current version of UCX all host must be in the database. You can NOT call a host by its name or address unless it is in the database. This allows control over what hosts can be contacted. But it also means that ALL hosts that you wish to use MUST be in the database, even if you just wish the use the address and not the name. -- Andrew Lindh, a student at the University of Hartford -- Computer Science INTERNET: lindh@uhasun.hartford.edu | NOTE: All views here are MINE!!!
