Yes, we saw a dramatic increase in performance. The 'x_st_mgr' doesn't seem to handle font paths correctly, though, so you will probably need to create a single font directory for the Xstation. Concerning the question about handling the 802.3, which version of the software do you have loaded? A month or two back I received an update to the 'x_st_mgr' that was supposed to have fixed (or possibly enabled 802.3). It should be the same as on the 3001 update. Since we are not running on thin, I can't tell you if it works. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Chris McCoy : INTERNET: mccoy@acn.purdue.edu UNIX Systems Programmer : UUCP: ...!ecn-ee!mccoy Ag.
