Hotsync appears to listen on TCP port 14237 (check Google for more info...). You could try connecting to that port. If the connect fails it's not running. You can check this from the cmd prompt: telnet servername 14237 It will fail if there's no service listening on that port. -- Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
