Frank, re: "Why do you think that there is so much trouble with accessing SI at certain times??"

If you were to go over to the SUNW thread and ask your question, the UNIX bigots there would say that the reliability problem with SI is because they use Windows NT servers. SI has stated that they use NT servers because they are cheaper, and, I guess, SI doesn't have a lot of money to spend on resources. As far as NT goes, it is generally accepted to be not as robust as UNIX, at least not yet. Subsequent releases of NT are supposed to help (it's not the Intel hardware, of course, but the software that is the problem). NO grins!
