subject: Win Version was: Bug report

jc>>> Some people stated (unless I am misunderstanding) that they paid
 jc>>> for the 1000 node Linux version, got the key, and the software does
 jc>>> not even execute on Linux.

 ml>> no... the problem is that it cannot perform domain name lookups
 ml>> because it uses an old method that is no longer supported by the
 ml>> newer libs... it works just fine with IP numbers, though...
 ml>> especially since there is no DNS lookup for them ;)

 RW>> DNS lookups in the Windows version works just fine.

 ml> right... i was speaking of the linux flavor of IREX...

 RW> Since there are 4 OS versions of Rex, please state in your messages
 RW> which one you're referring to. Telling a Win OS user that Rex
 RW> doesn't do something (while speaking of Linux) leads some people
 RW> a-stray. 

if they read all of the message or thread, they should be able to tell
which was being discussed... the original that i commented to is still
above and specifically states linux ;)

but i do see your point...
