Patrick,
I was about to download and install this when I saw a note from you
about ten minutes later about the bidirectional port experiments where
you exhorted people to NOT install the private version of IFHP. Can I
safely install this and try it out, or is this going to blow up my
system? Thought I had better ask.
Thanks for your apparently unending store of patience.
