| Q.: Can I write an FTP client that only allows users to download files without allowing them to upload files. |
A.: Yes, you can write a client that only allows GET - However, the restriction is valid only when this FTP client is used. That is, if the user used a differnet FTP application and tries to PUT a file - it would work unless you restrict it from the server end.

| Q.: I need my POP client to connect to a port other than the defualt well known port (110 for POP3 or 109 for POP2). |
A.: Distinct will automatically connect to the well known port of 110. If you are connecting through a firewall this may need to be changed. You can do this by editing the services file. This file is found under the Windows directory in Windows 95 and 98 and under system32/drivers/etc located under the WindowsNT directory in NT 4.0.
Add the following entry:
pop-3 1700/tcp
where: 1700 is the port number you want to connect to. Replace this with your actual port number. Note that Distinct does not read the pop3 entry but just pop-3.

| Q.: I need my SMTP client to connect to a port other than the well known port. |
A.: Distinct will first check the services file to see if there is an entry for smtp, otherwise it will connect to the well-known port 25. If you wish to connect to a different port you need to change the smtp entry in the services file. If the entry is not in your service file you need to add it. However, be careful not to add it if it is already there as the first entry will be read
smtp 25/tcp mail

| Q.: MISSING D32-FW.DLL |
A.: The D32-FW.DLL is a Distinct owned library used in many commercial applications, including Yahoo Messenger. If you obtained this library with a third party product, and you need technical support, you need to go to that vendor.
