Fair enough. I have been using the 1.3 clients for a while now and they 
work much better but what about the problems with 1.3 clients in 
multi-user (i.e. TS) environments (see below). The 1.2.11 client does 
not have the same issue does it? Will a 1.3 client that works in TS 
environment be developed?

(2) tokens are assigned to the service on a system global basis. 
Therefore,
all users and processes on the machine are able to access files with the
list of available tokens.  This is dangerous if anonymous logins are 
enabled;
or if multiple users are on the machine (ie, Terminal Server or XP user
switching)
