Just tested actual app with server shut down and it handled situation
by reassigning the local server when I had selected remote and
connected the local fine. Not supposed to have done that so I will
have to check my code. It changed all my reg settings from nts:C:\...
to F:\... created a share on local and set up my workstation name
\\ws1\\Sharename to access common files. This was only supposed to
happen on remote server. I guess it is too smart.

Bottom line is I think it will hang same as console if I didn't have
IB installed locally also.
