This is not the way the aggregator works. It is always possible (and sometimes required, especailly for administrative operations) for a frontend to refer a client to the backend for particular operations. This is a large performace win for clients which susport referrals (and as I said above, is necessary for some administrative operations). -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
