No solution found. I gave up the hunt and went back to TCP/IP, following Fermat's
Principle (path of least resistance).
Been happily unsecure ever since.
I don't know which is more annoying: Not being able to impliment the protocol on
an XP/win98 network, or not being able to install XP on the older computer (because
of Billy-Boy's one-O/S:one-Computer license structure)?!
