    RT> Yes i know that door also, but what i dont like it that it has no   
    RT> protocols  build in....   
      
   personally speaking, i've grown to dislike built-in xfer protocol engines...   
   why? they cannot be adjusted like some of the external ones... some internal   
   ones are too tight in their timings because they were built for dedicated   
   channels like POTS where delays are not as long as they may be on network   
   channels that may be carrying a lot more traffic than POTS channels carried...   
   over the years, i've found only a few external xfer protocol engines that   
   actually work properly on both POTS and network channels... as time has gone   
   by, i've slowly turned off those internal protocol engines and configured my   
   software to use only the external ones... but it takes time and a lot of   
   testing... what may work on an internal LAN may be just slightly too tight to   
   work on WAN traffic from the outside ;)
