That is true. pserver is basically unusable on a secure network - even if you alias the users the passwords for that are still basically plaintext so easily sniffable. You're better off with sspi or sserver. If using older clients that don't support those you may be able to get gserver working (with an active directory domain this isn't too hard but still requires fiddling). Tony
