True - which is why it was silly of me *not* to have everything seen by the
filer first....:(  My apologies if I seemed to be criticising *your* code, I
intended to criticise *my* setup.... S'alright now :)

Fair 'nuff... I haven't. :)

Well, it *was* between 12-2am *but* I don't run automatic sessions. It
happened twice which makes me think it is at my end rather than Demon. I put
tcp hangup 0 0 in the Config file - and to date I haven't had any problems
with it. However, again I am *not* blaming your code - I will ferret around a
bit if it happens again. (Jim spends next three minutes and ten seconds
staring at screen waiting for line to drop....;-)

Thanks for the reply - I have spent some time on using this amazing switching
facility now, and it really makes life *so* much easier. Another great
product...:)
