Vircom charges       $500.00 for the key to DMA servers to current customers of Major TCP/IP.        If you do not have a license to TCP/IP though, I don't think they'll       sell you one.              The $500.00 includes just a key; no support.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
