    I'm working on mui gui for Envoy. Envoy has own groups and users handling, morphos has own. Both are lame. I can rewrite users.library (there is some source code on aminet) to support morphos style of users handling but it would be nice to know whether morphos team is going to leave it in this form. Any hints ?

    Great to see that you do this! I use Envoy3 for my LAN.

    Though IMHO it would be great if we had for MorphOS some networking solution which permits also other os's to be used not only Amiga compatibles.

    An easy to use networking solution - even though it might only be usable on amiga compatibles - is really appreciated.
    I wonder however, where you can get Envoy from ? Is it still sold or Freeware now... ?

    I'm thinking of complete rewrite but it's a huge job (ipc.library especially) with Wireshark.

    Would be great to have an easy to use "networking suite" on MorphOS! I really miss kind of a network browser to look for shares in my LAN regardless the system on which they are hosted and simply connect to share folders and have them mounted and accessible.
    Something like we see on OSX and Windoze (sorry ;-) ).
    In my opinion such functionality should already have been part of MorphOS since some time...

    wow, this is really cool ;)
    would it be possible to add all Envoy prefs in a single appwindow like MUI-prefs?
