I've found that if you add a new address in a differnet subnet, arp stops working for IP addresses published by a local terminal server. If you ping one of the published addresses, it won't work, and doing a "arp -a" will show the IP address and hardware address of "Incomplete". What's going on? BTW, I'm using 1.1.5.1, but I may be able to try with 950210-SNAP tommorrow. Tom
