if the tediousness exceeds your perception of the difficulty, do Names. if not, not. In my very limited experience, a truly robust, well-managed Names service is great, but takes some work to set up, test, and document. YMMV || -Original Message- || From: Johnson Poovathummoottil

Oh, you wanted to set it up on NT? I CAN'T EVEN GET 8.1.6 ONAMES *INSTALLED*, much less running! I finally just gave up and went with our development HP9000 L-class as the backup server. Erm, one other thing I just remembered: We are running 8.1.6 Networking on the HP. Since my ONAMES is
