That's it! Thank you! Funny, I tried almost everything *but* the hostname when trying to reproduce this. I created sessions with the same name as the server name. I created sessions with the same name as the user@server. I updated the Default Settings to include 'hg' as the Auto-login user. Nothing reproduced the problem. Apparently I needed to just take *one* more step and save the hostname in the Default Settings, too. Thanks again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
