Topic was ways of getting Powerpro installations to talk to each

Before I put time in to plugin, I gotta know have some rationale for
putting that functionality into Powerpro.  What can you get out of a
Powerpro plugin that you can;t achieve using command-line ftp, driven
by Powerpro script?  True, you can't see progress back in
Powerpro...um...maybe you can, because you can use file plugin to
monitor size of incoming file...

There's ping in net plugin.  Works, AFAIK.

See net plugin.  I think there's some problem with callbacks on
threaded version of services.
