I was going to suggest that as well. It does work, though it's not perfect and can be a little sluggish at times. The other option that might be open to you is to use a Win2K/NT40 terminal server. FWIW w2k (at least advanced server) has this built in for 'administrative' functions. I use the Linux rdesktop client and it works quiet nicely. One thing MS did get right with this is that you can disconnect w/o ending your session, then reconnect to it later. --rdp -- Rich Payne http://talisman.mv.com ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
