I was wondering whether it was custom software or whether there is an available library of functions that provide the transport layer over a dialup link. I'm assuming that they are using some error correcting protocol. Thanks for any info you can give. -- -- Jack Dixon, AT&T { ...!att!vogon!jcd, jcd@vogon.att.com }
