<whisper> Thanks for the reminder, peter. Oddly enough, I had a nagging suspicion I had heard of some rather obscure alternative to SNI and now I know where I heard it :-) But couldn't remember enough about it to find it on Google :-( Anyway, I stand corrected. Sorry for afflicting your hearing - but it seemed the op wasn't getting the point. However, at least he now has an alternative... Would you mind helping him out with it?
