Your third option is, of course, OTMP, but that is probably not
acceptable because of its weird system requirements (broken on Mac OS
9.1, for example) and it does complicate the endpoint transfer.
Ouch. Could you expand on that a little please, Quinn?
I was planning to use OTMP on 9.x (and plain old sockets on X and
Win32) to implement concurrent LAN licensing for an app. The exact
protocol is still on the drawing board, but needs to be
cross-platform, so unfortunately NSL is out. I'm thinking along the
lines of UDP broadcast on the LAN subnet (not all the time, just when
a machine wants to claim a seat against the licence).
Anyhow, I'm required to support 9.1 with CarbonLib 1.6, so if there
are any issues with OTMP I'd be good to know about them at this stage.
Richard.
