Hi there..
just wanted to express my opinion on this debate :

After having tried both applications, I came to the following conclusions...

- with Flexnet, I didn't  achieve a stable configuration. The system keeps
  crashing over and over. I tried a lot of different settings without luck..
- Flexnet does not allow a local loop-back. If you have ,say, a DxCluster
  running, there's no way to connect to , without passing through an external
  station/node, to emulate users connections.

- with BPQ, I'm running 3 applications: Clusse as DxCluster, Winpack for
  outgoing connections and monitoring, Tsthost for mailing and bulletins.
  All these absolutely trouble-free. Thus, my son is able to play his games
  while all keeps running in the background.
- the system NEVER crashes
- I don't care about any routing, as we are using Hi-Speed Supervozelj nodes.

  So, for my requirement ( repeat, for MY requirement ) BPQ is what I need.
  There's no question !

  Thanks for reading.. es 73 de Gianni
