Shaun,

Sorry I didn't reply to this when it first came in.

Most help requests go to our Support mailbox, address@hidden.

If I can help, I will.

We used the PC/TCP product from FTP Software on our OS/2 machines, but
we havn't operated any of those boxes in several years.  PC/TCP was easy
to install and configure, and it integrated into our almost all Unix
network nicely.

Well, it isn't a question of not wanting to help out, it is just that our
body of OS/2 expertise has diminished considerably since we stopped using
that OS.

>Thank you,

Sorry I can't be of more help.
