However...

I cannot get any kind of outbound net tools to work "under" TG, which is in
turn "under" the fossil.  Testing has shown this to be common to
all fossils,
or at least the three I tested, NetFoss being one of them.  I tested under two
telnet servers, and in each case had the server simply spawn an instance of the
command prompt with no fossil, from which internet tools worked fine.  In fact,
they always work fine, as long as the window wasn't opened
"under" fossil (I
know there's better terminology for what I'm saying, but the exact nature of
this is somewhat new to me).

The point being, from what I can tell thus far, Telegard + WinXP (and
presumably 2k and NT) = no outbound tcp connectivity for the users.

Even if I use WinXP's "start" to cause a completely new window to
open, I  have
no tcp access, which is quite odd since Netfoss appears to "losr
track"" of
that window anyway.  But for certain minor functions I could always cause
"start" to open a fresh window with a .bat that unloads the
fossil and performs
it's task, assuming that it's a task where data can be saved and referenced
from anywhere.

I was going to eventually end up here with this, so I thought now would be as
good a time as any.
