use the location manager in OS9 to make different sets for home and away locations ... very cool bit of software for PB's on the move.... but does take a little bit of thinking to work it out... use 'apple-k' to make new configurations (is that right word? - not used OS9 in a while) for things like TCP/IP, appletalk, etc ... and give them names that mean something ... not just 'default' ... and then tell location manager which tcp/ip set (say) it is using for each location ... it works well when it is set up right regards Jerome from Gondwanaland ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
