For me no *doze in my network ! (or it must be a paying client)

UsaSat/Surfbeam is a straight tcpip connection (also with static IP) and
runs on VxWorks.
  

(Which is Windows, after all...) ;-)

I thought VXworks was built on VRTX?  I don't think there are any similarities between VRTX and Windoze. :)

I stand corrected; you are closer to the truth of the matter, my friend. My earlier impression came from some faulty data I read concerning the latest round of LinkSys boxes (WRT54G v5) based on VxWorks. Here's an interesting link: http://www.xs4all.nl/~borkhuis/vxworks/vxw_pt0.html#0.1.

Apologies for the (my) confusion.

As VxWorks is just about as ornery to deal with (as it's proprietary, we don't have many available hacks for it

- in the Wi-Fi world, at least, where I've had to interact with it), I just started lumping it in with Windows after reading what I did concerning the v5 LinkSys devices.
