    AA> Huh?   
      
   If the problem was specific to OpenXP, I wouldn't have expected WinPoint     
   to have had problems.

   Yes :)   
      
    AA> There doesn't seem to be an option in the config to accomodate that.   
      
   Eh??   
      
    AA> It looks like all the servers have to feed the same file formats   
    AA> (either a bundle or separate .pkt files).   
      
   As each server has its own separate config, the packer/unpacker can be     
   defined on a per server basis.

   So why are we still discussing this :-))

   OK, send them(Zip'd) and I'll play about with them here.
