People who don't upgrade will never have the problem, so there's no issue there. Certainly it's better to disable the client side first rather than the server side, as someone installing a new server might not have the ability to upgrade all the clients at the same time. It'll be a while before the current development becomes the next stable build anyway - I've got quite a bit to do with it but little time to actually do it at the moment. ATM I recomment people avoid ntserver in new installations, so there's no upgrade issues later. Tony
