Like I said "I Think" the latest version supports SMB over IP (without
netbios) - hopefully I'll learn more in June if they get this Webcast
running.

As you probably know, IBM uses TCPBEUI across it's LAN, I won't say
without
problems, but I suspect most of the problems are related to the
Shadow-IP
servers and are usually fixable with an occasional boot. Interestingly
enough, IBM Germany uses the same, DOS Based shadow-IP servers as
Australia
does, so it must have been a corporate "edict". Strange as this software 
is far from perfect and damned expensive !

Which Shadow-IP / DDNS / WINS server were you using in your attempts to 
get TCPBEUI to work over a WAN ?

Cheers/2
Ed.
