This process creates its own NNTP object in the NCP database. I remeber you said that you should be able to start it with the first call. But then you have to have a NNTP object in NCP that points to NNTP_DECM, that creates its own object, and you will then have two NNTP objects. I tried this but never got it to work and when I looked into the code I thought I understood it. I just removed the timeout that was there (a long time ago) and started the image as a detached process. And voila... Ok, maybe I do not understand this, or it was to long ago you hacked that code ;-> Nevertheless it works. But you have to restart the process after a SYSLCK. Mats
