I wasn't sure how many socks-aware winsock clients there are though. I've been told that Netscape is. In fact, what I'll probably do is use Novix on the Netware side so that I don't have to worry about allocating ip addresses to each workstation. Novix seems to do teh tunneling job pretty well, it's just the asynchronous NLM which really sucks. -- Paul Richards, Bluebird Computer Systems. FreeBSD core team member.
