We surely hope so. And we're working hard on it. I'm right now improving the installer which then should recognize common issues like firewalls blocking network access, other applications conflicting with the same resources we'd like to use etc. > I wonder if they are trying to?

There are too many variables in every networking environment. Some competitor worked around this issue by simply ignoring any standards and using their very own proprietary networking protocols, closing down any access for third parties. And even some networking equipment manufacturers don't implement the standards they print on their boxes. That's not the way we want to go. -- Michael _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
