yes you're right it is in there. Actually i knew that it was there. but
since I am using a server in Europe I thought there should be another one on
that server!!
It seems like it is working now. The only thing that I need to be done with
is that to write a login attribute without specifying a password :)
Or I can get a new user name and password collections, but the person who
takes care of this stuff is in Europe and he probably is slepping right now
because it's midnight over there :)
i want to get over with vssget today before I leave :)
Thanks a lot for your help :)
