I guess I do ask a lot : of stupid questions on this newsgroup (once I asked what an ATM card : was...), has it earned me a reputation? Yes, of course I've tried it No, no... I was just wondering if it was possibly that problem. I'll see what I can find about the DNS thing once I'm on my own servers. If there is a way to set the nslookup timout, I'd like to know it. I fear, however, that it wouldn't help, owing to the recursive nature of DNS. Your request would just timout somewhere else... : I'll be dammed if I have to write my own robot. Anyone know of another : free robot for perl or something I can run on win32? I dunno if its ported to Win32 yet (I assume it is) but the Excite engine is avaialbe. It doesn't show up prominently on their web page anymore, but I can probably drop the link to you after I get to the office. Forgive the english, typing, etc. Windows telnet, vi, and high latency. : -- : Adam -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Michael J.
