I tried rfbplaymacro and found it tedious to work with at best. The reason I don't want to used something like AutoIt is that our monitoring system will alert me when a failure has occured. As this point is when I would want to fire off a perl script that could connect to the VNC server and hit enter on an error dialog box, which will then allow a failing website to run. The last time I brought something like this to the list I was told to "throw out such a horrible program". I truly wish it was that easy, but getting rid of the offending software is not even an option. If anyone has some good examples of rfbplaymacro I would be willing to re-investigate it. Thanks all, Floyd Russell
