Ioan, Thanks for the interesting references! Still, I don't think your solution would be useful to the original poster. From a user's perpective, what are the prerequisites to use Falkon? Few people have the capability to replace/upgrade the middleware at their sites or the time to work it out by themselves. Based on my experience, users want something which they can understand and deploy in half an hour... Regards, Jan Ploski
