Hi - I tried responding to one of these a week ago, and judging by the archives, it never made it (btw, I have a copy of the original post in my sent folder, and never received a bounce notice)... RE C++ API - I saw that there was some discussion on the C++ and C API's and linux on notes.net - you may want to check - but I'm not sure the win2K C++ API will talk properly on a linux box - I think there's even a linux version of the API... Mike Jentges: Notes is only available as a server (aka Domino) on linux - no linux client is avaialbe yet - HOWEVER, depending on the implementation of the db's, it's possible to use a web browser as a client - it takes more work, and will require upgrading any db's that are client-dependant. RE 6.2 vs 7.x - The Lotus Documentation *says* RH 6.2 - which is likely where they've done all of their heavy duty testing - I did get it to work on 7.0 briefly, but the box wasn't buff enough to handle more than proving that it could be done. I haven' tried it with 7.2 *yet* I just need a new box to play with :) Liz __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo!
