Eric: Interesting timing. I assume you and your fellow "bunch of crips" are motion impaired. I happen to be in Africa just now working on the polio vaccination effort in an attempt to reduce additions to your group. My mother-in-law (a polio victim) was quadriplegic and used breathing assistance, and ran a telephone answering service for 17 years. Her voice was her world. I wish she had something as nice as a computer that could understand speech. Now to the subject... As we speak I am frantically crunching on a Python proxy to bridge a COM link to the Linux environment. The specific COM link I am fighting with (and for) is the COM interface to the ADO database engine. I am attempting to build a remote ADO module which talks to a Windows host which performs the COM calls to talk to a database server. I am getting pretty close -- close enough that the django test routine running on Ubuntu can create and load a database and start running tests against it -- before it runs into some kind of timeout or thread exhaustion error. I am trying to use Pyro4 as the network communication layer. Is this something you can use? Not yet, but it may be a starting point. Stay in touch, please. -- Vernon Cole
