Does that work?
It works (I'm using that now) but my system is internet connected as well, so it's not very secure. I have set "allow hosts =" to limit connections but do want to allow some outside access; unfortunately it does not seem to be possible to set this on a host + username basis. Still, I think I might be able to use auto-logon in Win95 to have a password for those machines and not prompt for it. I will try this later. thanks Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
