That's a PITA.               Ol> And they were using the case sensitive tosser?              Not that I know of. I have never run into a case sensitive tosser, at least       not that I know of.              In the case of my own tosser HPT, I don't think it is case sensitive. It is       happy with upper, lower or mixed case. That's an assumption on my part I have       never tested. It's been my habit to enter passwords in upper case and that has       never caused problems or confusion, at least not for me.              If I enter a packet password in my config in mixed case it writes that       password in the .pkt in mixed case but I don't think it checks password case       senitively. Given a bit of spare time I am going to have to test that out to       be sure given what I have read in the last few days.. :)               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 18/0 200 90/1 103/705 116/116 120/340 601 123/0       SEEN-BY: 123/25 50 150 160 170 755 135/300 138/146 153/250 757 6809       SEEN-BY: 153/7001 7715 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 221/0 6 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 227/400 229/426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 261/38 280/464       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 288/100 292/854 8125 300/4 310/31 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 423/120 633/280 712/848 770/1 3634/0 12 15       SEEN-BY: 3634/24 27 50 119       PATH: 153/757 7715 3634/12 154/10 280/464 229/426           |
