I know they aren't "New" commands, but they continued to distribute example
scripts with OS 8.6 that showed how to use Remote Access Commands OSAX, but
none showing the NSS commands.
The tech library article was very helpful..thank you for includinf the link.
As a side note....
I started scripting with these commands and abruptly corrupted my remote access
preferences. Forcing me to throw them away before I restart everytime.
Otherwise the system takes 106Mb of ram and none of my extensions will load
until I throw it away. Once it is in the trash....It restarts like normal.
Anyone else have this problem??
thanx

They didn't break it; they removed it because it is obsolete.
