Just did a search on Google for "Versant terminal" and got total
silence back :-(
The statement from the vendor could have a *grain* of thruth in
it, since there have been a number of issues with databases (not
specific for Versant, also Access, FoxPro, etc) on W2K TS, caused
by problems with the network redirector. Most of these issues have
been solved in SP3 or SP4. Check:
