Forbidden works for me. I was just indicating that there is no source code difference between the Enterprise, Workgroup, and Express editions of IDS. The only difference is that some features, like numbers of permitted CPU VPs, availability of some replication features, etc. are disabled and not available. These are verboten in the sense that in addition to their being disabled, one is precluded by licensing restrictions from using those features reserved for the higher priced editions. I learned and speak, in order of descending facility, French, German and a smattering of Hebrew and Yiddish (in addition to mangling A'murcan English on a daily basis ;-). While I speak none of the above well I sometimes find a non-English word describes my intent by it's native connotation better than the English equivalent. English is such an unexpressive language. I just found verboten to be stronger than the appropriate English word which I guess would have been 'restricted' and 'forbidden' has a different connotation. Art S.
