Thanks for your input, Bob. I'll be the first to admit that I don't know
much about Domino. My brother is the Domino expert, and at one point he was
in charge of a network of thousands of Domino users. He always said that if
it was configured correctly and used appropriately that Domino screamed. I
guess I've seen several bad implementations, because it certainly didn't
scream where I was, but it's good to hear from people who have had success.
