Are you on a intranet (private link / VPN) to India, over the Internet, is encryption required (if you already are using a VPN then the communication is encrypted), etc.etc. CVSNT supports a number of protocols, and most can be encrypted I believe. You can tell the server to force encryption. You can have source verification (e.g. SSH or SSL), there might be a way to do client verification (would gserver help with that??). I don't have the answers, but I could lead you to more questions... :) -------------------- Glen Starrett
