Thank you very much. I already had the example you pointed out and was
having trouble with it also. However in working on it I discovered what was
wrong. As I suspected it was a configuration error in my network settings.
Once I set up both ipv6 addresses and ipv4 addresses both sets of code quit
choking.

Again, I appreciate you assistance very much.

Myra
