John Easley	I'm using 3.30 (currently working to upgrade to 4.x). My app runs on a local LAN with approx 80-100 connections. I'm using SessionType of stRemote, and RemoteType of rtInternet. I'm just curious if there's a performance gain or loss by using a SesstionType of rtLAN instead of rtInternet? TIA, John

I know little of this, but the only reference I find on my system is the DBISAM v4 manual that says it is to do with compression, and appears to have gone. Looks like internet was encrypted, lan not? http://www.elevatesoft.com/manual?action=viewtopic&id=dbisam4&product=delphi&version=5&topic=changes -- Matthew Jones
