I just set up scripts on my Mom's computer (WinXP) and my Dad's (Mepis), so both of them can call when there's any problem to let me know there's a problem, then click the icon and they'll get a RealVNC connection so I can work on their system. Even though they don't live far away, it saves a LOT of time. Hal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
