- - The RAS interfaces dynamically loaded by the server when
- dial-on-demand is enabled are very unstable on Windows 95/98.
- Alternative dedicated dial-on-demand utilities (see www.tucows.com)
- are recommended. The dial-on-demand is also very unstable when
- used by the mail fetcher/router daemons.
- - WinCGI [Form File] not supported (multipart/form-data)
