Time correction is set as 0 so >what am I doing wrong? All old calls are OK and even if I recost the lot it >still wont work. Any ideas? This is a good oportunity to answer this. I did discover a bug in CoSTa around 2nd January. It had real problems with the fact that 1996 is a leap year. I fixed it, and e-mailed all registered users with the fix ASAP. I also sent it to Danny at Hensa. He has uploaded the fixed version (1.34) in the last couple of days. The moral of this story is: either download the NEW version from Hensa (or register :-) ) Registering will ensure you get sent the latest version when it's available. The delay of waiting for it to appear on Hensa is about 3 weeks (no offence Danny). BTW, CoSTa now supports NOS, CoNnect2,MiNTnet,and CixComm. Regards, Gary. p.s. version 1.34 and above fix the above problem. __ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary Priest gary@the-gap.demon.co.uk Southampton,England ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
