Helen,
I know the thread is drifting OT, but...

HB> While this is currently true, don't plan for it to be permanent. In Fb
HB> 1.5, Embedded server uses the IPSERVER network emulation protocol. For
HB> next releases, IPSERVER is being deprecated and replaced by XNET

which will not change a thing compatibility-wise, AFAIU.

HB> and the
HB> embedded client will not have the option to use a network protocol.

What? Are you joking? Where did you get this piece of information?
Ciao
