Hmmm. I used to run this version of ozymandns to provide IP-over-DNS style services, and it was far from stable. It would often crash, drop connections or chew lots of CPU for no apparent reason. Unless things have improved substantially since, I would recommend strongly against adding these to the archive. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. [EMAIL PROTECTED] "We're the technical experts.
