Theoritically I could. I have a Linux desktop system where I could put the data. However, Corporate Security has decreed that I am not allowed to have an ftp or telnet server on that system. Since I don't want to loose it, I play by the rules. I do have NFS up (huh? That's OK but ftp isn't?). And I use ssh to connect, so that is OK. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
