I had thought the G3 could use both its internal modem and the external modem jack at the same time so it would simultaneously run the AppleTalk and my internet connection. Is this incorrect? Perhaps I wasn't clear. I am hooked to the internet (it's how I'm sending this!) The difficulty is I just have the one phone number. What I have is two phone jacks (same number) with one hooked to the G3 (thru its internal modem port which leaves its external modem port unused) and the other my phone. So when I go online I get no incoming phone calls just voice mail. So I had thought once I got the AppleTalk thing done I would be able to work with Webcat (on StarMax) thru the browser functioning on the G3. Will this work?>Will I need to have WebCat installed on my computer at home to work with >it on the server it lives on? I thought it only went on the server.>No, that is not necessary.

Will WebCat work ( or can I work with it) independent of server software?>There is a paper on our web site that tells you how to set up dual stacks. http://www.tenon.com/products/webten/papers/dual_stack.shtmlThanks for the pointer! Since I need to have Timbuktu for my server because it'll be co-located I'll just go ahead and set it up with dual stacks.Thanks, Robin
