Thanks, didn't know that. I've always tried to adhere to the names given in the manpages, so others working with the things I make wouldn't get confused. Anyway it is not the multiport instruction itself that's not working. It's just that I seem to break syntax if I want to specify multiple destination-ports and a source-port too. See my reply to John's message for an example of that. Grx HdV
