I networked my WinServer and have wcOline running on Windows 2003 
server where there is a shared drive off the WinServer machine for wc5 
and my door games.  All is working, but it took some effort to get it 
right.  Networking WinServer was not hard, the hard part was geting the 
games working on that shared drive where before they knew to go to 
drive d:  and now the shared folder is W:  So I had to take all the 
drive desginations out of the batch files and configuration file of 
each game.
