Hello Scott, I know these differences I want to identify the differences that you get for the following scenario you listed down in the mail dated on 15th July. > > > > 3.

What should happen for the Group index and icon index in the above scenario? For e.g say On PC1, I change the group of some PC (xyz) on my LAN to Macintosh group. Then I started Kaboodle on PC2. In this case PC (xyz) will belong to which group on PC2? At Preset I have only modified the alias names, IP address and kaboodle tunnel settings. And I think we should display the message "detecting Network" Only if the registry is empty and no other kaboodle is running on the LAN. If you think it in different way please let me know. The sniffer code is not changed at all. Can you please test it. Regards, Varsha ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott C.
