I love that line so i had to repeat it. I believe that the answer to your question is that most systems are 802.2. I have a client who is running Novell v3.11, which is an "intermediate" version, and they need 802.3. But because i think that the 802.3 is "odd", that implies that 802.2 is "normal". I hope this helps. Good luck. ... universero trio... [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tio.net/~trio Learn and use The International Language Esperanto!
