I'm testing on Dual Pentium III Machines (800MHZ). Maybe your dual athlon is easier? hmmm... I'm syncing with latest cooker now for another test. maybe I should test on my own machine.... (Dual P4-XEON 1.7Ghz) perhaps just Pentium III's have a problem? -- Bryan Whitehead SysAdmin - JPL - Interferometry Systems and Technology Phone: 818 354 2903 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
