Tman, your handle is appropriate, as you are THE MAN. I just tried this (after locating a loose copy of cygwin1.dll) and it works like a freaking charm. It does exactly what we needed it to do. I can now connect to my empeg by name on my network, it is freaking brilliant. WOW.

And there were parameters you put in there that I didn't know I needed, like the address of the broadcast subnet. I had to change it from the default as my subnet was one digit off. Worked perfectly. WOW.

(Wiping tear from eye) I love you guys. You're the best. (Sniff.)
