You don't mention whether your surprise was about the preferred IND$FILE or that FTP is a customizable alternative. I suspect you meant the former; I'm more surprised by the latter. >> Well definitely the former. Even the WEB3270 thing used it for file transfer and was picky about QUERY bits.. Took a very long time for FTP and emulators to get up to speed on VB. Must of restored user.FONTLIBB a dozen times before finally figured out they were using FTP of some fashion to destroy it. It was easy to spot with the x'FA's all over the place. Switched over to IND$FILE and it went away. Funny thing about emulators, so many options and some many twiddlers. Some provide new their own FTP, some don't. My favorite was the reinstall of Windows(twice), and hard drive replacement to find the green screen had been 'customized' to have same color blue for foreground and background... For small files speed was irrelevant **************Biggest Grammy Award surprises of all time on AOL Music.
