??? Why? Windows 98 at least can use a hosts file. It is located in the Windows directory (usually C:\windows\). It is called hosts, with no extension. There is usually a hosts.sam which is a sample hosts file, but it's not recognized by the system. I'd be curious to know when the final release is supposed to be, although from what I've read so far I fear it's still going to be too much like (other versions of) Linux and not enough like Windows for me to be able to use. _____ Visit the Resources for Michigan Telephone Users page: http://michigantelephone.workbench.net/ - -- rl-users list.
