I can. They seem to have moved to India. There will be a day when they simply dump the Dutch support group and have everything answered by cover your ass trained monkeys from India. I will regret that day. In order to allow for those trained monkeys to deal with your support issues, they now have livechat facilities and facilities to take over

your client PC. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....

Frankly, when you have one instance running MTS with explicit ports, and you have second instance with the same explicit ports (because you forgot to change them) and the second instance is *taking over* the ports, so the enduser connects to instance A and gets connected to instance B, I have to consider that a serious *bug*. The trained monkey on the other end of the line didn't, because you can allocate a port only once. He also addressed me with my surname only. A truly nasty experience.
