That is not how my network is configured.

That is beginning to sound like a worthwhile effort. But difficult when the names are all thats available in the README. Which I'll quote from here in case the publicity helps. "Many Thanks from Jacob Bogenschutz (bogie6040) to the following: Norbert Schechner (newbynobi) Fernand Veilleux (FernV) Slavko Kocjancic (eslavko) They deserve all the credit, I just tweeked on they're stuff and put it together." Just in case one of them is reading this list.. :) > David Thanks David. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
