Went to - http://www.netal.com/download.htm

And downloaded the "System Scripting Runtime 1.4"

Within this, archive it shows that you can do a PING or other Network options on line, i.e. no 'SHELL' should be necessary when running from a script.

This does a whole host of things from the DLL that are network-related.

A fair portion of the funionality is built into KiX, but this loooks good.

Very cool stuff!
