   Hallo August,

   I think this would imply that there is some kind of "binkd" running in the     
   background to accept incoming connections while OpenXP is still running.   
   That would need a new base for OXP because at the moment, it isn't a     
   multithreading application :)   
      
   So my guess would be that this could be accomlished by using another binkp     
   daemon which could send/receive packages. OXP then uses the incoming/    
   outgoing directories.   
      
   Could that work?   
      
   Regards,
