There it is: exactly what i wanted. You even threw in a comment about my use of email. Thank you.
Right now I have just experimentally installed a Dod server on a win2k3 box, with the hopes that it will outperform our linux boxes, as cpu usage has skyrocketed with version 1.0. As soon as the server gets full, i will give you some interesting and detailed information to comment on.
