Nothing        to do with what the sysop uses for a tosser/unpacker.              Thats how I understood the REX doc.               > I use FE, which does differentiate between session and        > packet passwords, so I can't speak for those that don't.              I use Squish, it just has a packet password option, I run Binkley here which       supports a session password.               > like those of 'the Great Carmack' and can know what the        > password is before attempting to unpak it.              Hehehe..
