Andrew, how would the unicast bridge be affected by this when bridging a 3.x client with a 2.4 server? Say we have 2 Ag servers, 1 2.4 the other 3.0.2 broadcasting to the same multicast addresses, but they each run their own unicast bridge server. Now if 3.x client connects to one of the "shared" venues, how would the bridge function and place them in the correct space so everybody else in the room will see them? -- Jeremy Mann jer...@biochem.uthscsa.edu University of Texas Health Science Center Bioinformatics Core Facility http://www.bioinformatics.uthscsa.edu Phone: (210) 567-2672
