In reality only those with UCX emulation. SAMBA actually just uses the standard socket library, and on OpenVMS the standard socket library uses the equivalent of dlsymbol() pull in the actual TCP/IP routines. > Does anyone know if the current version can work with other versions as > well? Like Multinet, TCPWARE, etc While it would require a formal test to insure compliance, Multinet and TCPWARE provide the HP/Compaq TCPIP API and try to maintain binary compatability. The author of the 2.2.4 port has not volunteered much information on their port to the samba-vms mailing list other than an FTP location. I have not had a chance to look it over the source. -John [EMAIL PROTECTED] Personal Opinion Only
