I am not doing well finding info lately. I promise to try harder.

TY. This is rather nice, even powerful.

I of course do not know if\how this is part of the situation, but if I
try to connect W2K to any OS/2 machine, It can see the machine down to
the partition level, but an attempt to map or connect gets "No more
connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because
there are already as many connections as the computer can accept."

Does this make sense to anyone?
