If you setup a dict server on your home network and your Milan can access that machine, it should be fine. On a Linux box with any decent distro it's a simple matter of installing the dictd server software and a couple of databases to query. I did compile dictd to set up the server on my Falcon (as you know the client and server can be on the same machine) but I couldn't get it to run. May have been a simple problem but since I prefered testing with online servers I didn't push the matter. JFL -- Jean-François Lemaire
