Thanks Magnus!

I for one have been listening - and appreciate your update!

My use of Zebedee is very simple (effectively to join two or more 
geographically separated network locations via secure tunnels using the 
public internet) - for which Zebedee is a lovely solution.

Haven't tried tunnelling SMB - but may give that a whirl now - thanks 
again all who posted on the topic.

cheers, M. (Still won't be in a rush to buy Vista though ;-)
