ok so when i first install os/2  with out the networking it automatically 
installs the LAPS correct,so what your saying is to overwrite that by using 
MPTS is this correct. if so i am seriuosly thinking of writing a quick text 
on how to set this up its just a shame ibm didn't. i guess they think we are 
genious's right any ways i captured the message you sent so i have  it for 
future reference.
