I thought about that too, but I've shut down the only thing (4D Portal) that would be competing. For giggles just now, I tried telnetting to port 80 and port 8080. With port 80, two out of three times, the connection was closed by the foreign host almost instantly, whereas Swiki on port 8080 hung onto it longer before closing. They looked the same, though there was no identification of what process was actually doing the answering. cheers... -Adam -- Adam C.
